Which pokemon should I power up to be my Blissey killer?

I have several high-IV attackers waiting to be powered up but only have enough dust to power up one of them.

Answer here for the most accurate results: http://www.strawpoll.me/12512494

98% Ursaring (703 CP) - Counter/Hyper Beam
93% Espeon (1611 CP) - Zen Headbutt/Psychic
93% Flareon (1648 CP) - Fire Spin/Overheat
91% Exeggutor (940 CP) - Confusion/Seed Bomb
91% Rhydon (1121 CP) - Mud Slap/Earthquake

EDIT: Added contenders in the OP

Flareon, Rhydon for offense, Exeggutor for defense. Power up Ursaring if you have enough candies.

Ursaring is extremely underwhelmng. I would 100% not waste stardust on a low level Ursaring to bring it up to level 30+. You can find Teddisuras so easily at high level regardless of Ivs. Rhydon is such a beast and that;s the best moveset for it but that's too low a level. Flareon w/ that moveset is a beast. Btw none of these are Blissy killers outside of Flareon?

Fs/Oh Flareon...no contest

Definitely FS/OH Flareon -- he's a top5 offensive pokemon right now.

One that Ive been using lately that works amazing is a Zam with PC and Focus blast. FB is a beast, SE without stab and PC charges it so fast. In addition against Zen headbutt Blisseys there is reduced damage. I highly recommend every trainer have several.

I agree, however, alakazam has low HP, even dodging every moves, especially Blissey with DG, he still can't knock her out with his lifespan. Thus, it is common to use two monsters relay in battling with blissey.

In addition, since the six movesets of Blissey are not effective to steel type pokemons, scizor and magneton (with high attacking ability) can also be considered instead of just ursaring, machamp, dragonite, gyarados, flareon~

I'd rather use Gengar over Magneton forsure..

you may try Magneton with spark + discharge/magnet bomb, it certainly surprise you.
Of course, magneton has low cp and hp, you don't expect it can defeat 3000+ blissey... If 2000 CP Magneton, 2500-2700 Blissey is a good match up :)

Definitely made of glass but much more durable against ZH Blisseys. I like to use the Zam as a lead attacker into 3K Blisseys or if Im in a hurry. Only costs a couple potions and then I can easily finish with a Dnite/machamp.

That one is sooooo on my wishlist.
He is one of the only Alakazam movesets I don't have...and I want it BAD.

If dust isn't a problem, I'd probably power up the Ursaring and the Flareon. I think Counter/Hyper Beam is Ursaring's best moveset for Blissey since HyperBeam will get STAB and both it and Close Combat are 1 bar charge moves, but HyperBeam does more damage, even if it has a longer cooldown...

Ursaring is also more tanky so would be able to just attack without dodging if needed to worry less about timeout.

I'd also power up the Flareon if you need another attacker to clean up against Blissey...

I'd leave the rest as is.
