Worst attacking moveset for Espeon, still good for attack?

I just evolved my 100IV eevee into an espeon, and it has ZH/PB, which is the worst attack moveset. Should I max him out?

Here are my other Espeons, should I just go for them instead?
CP 1277, IV 95.6, C/PB
CP 1447, IV 95.6, C/Psychic

And the only best eevee I have left is a 14/14/14 eevee, should I try again?

P.S. I got over 2600 eevee candies, so candy is not a problem

Maybe try again if candies are not an issue...

The only difficulty is to find a good IV eevee, I wasted quite a lot of them when I didn't know the buddy trick... It could be my Alakazam in gen 2, evolving many of them and didn't get the best move

just try again, the max damage output is con/fs with a glass cannon pokemon you want the max damage output

said that with ZH you can dodge more easily than con, the damage difference isnt big the energy gain is practically the same, so is your style too, but definately not powerup a psychic one because you have another 1 bar move you could get which is far better

Psybeam depends on you too, is a 2 bar, the problem is it has high cd

try again, if it fails, go to a gym and train with them all there, so you see, that is for powerup

now it is a 100iv if i was lvl 40 with tons of stardust i would just because can have max cp and leave it in gyms

Completely wrong, 100% IV eevee I would definitely get Vaporeon. However, your Espeon is still gonna be a beast (though not the best) on defense, on attack it does quite OK.

The problem is that if you have already used the name trick then there is no way to guarantee a Vape.

Haha, I already have a Vaporeon with 100IV with WG/AT, that's why I am now targeting on Espeon

I won't try again, please just try your Umbreon.

As others already said, dont power the 100% one up.
I would power up the C-PB one though, as it makes a cool defender and deals tons of damage, although it only survives for a relatively short time. Anyway, thats its best defensive moveset.

When it comes to Espeon, you want FutureSight, moveset is more important than IVs.

The quick attack is not a big deal since the DPS difference is very small, but FS is a lot stronger than any other move. A 80% IV Espeon with FS will be a lot stronger than yours on the same lvl fo example.
