In pure damage air slash is better, just like confusion is better than PC for alakazam, Air slash and Sludge B is 100% and bite Sludge B is 91%, but a crobat or alakazam with less dps are better than dead ones.

Where are you finding the dps or attack percentages? Nothing available on GamePress yet.

Try http://www.pogomoves.com/check.php?lang=en&pkmn=Crobat&basic=Air+Slash&charge=Air+Cutter

It provides an awkwardly searchable view of the spreadsheet data.

What would you use Crobat against?

The main time I can think of that I would use Crobat is to train against the occasional Machamp because of double resistance to fighting. In that case, Air Slash would exploit fighting's weakness, whereas Bite would be resisted. Probably any charge move would do.

Crobat would also be good against grass/poison pokemon, but I don't see those as often in gyms any more. In that case, Air Slash with either Air Cutter or maybe Shadowball would be preferable.
