Which Dratini to power up?

Ok, I'm in a bit of a big question mark on this one...

I caught a lvl 29 dratini that is 86.7% IV (not much would be needed to max out, about 40ish candies for this one to max @ my current level), but I have one that is 95.6%, but it will require 98 candies to FULLY power up after evolving IN ADDITION to the 125 needed to go to tini/air/nite (and I can't quite evolve either to a dragonite yet).

Should I go with the one that is nearly maxed out, or the higher IV one?

I am going to go with nearly maxed out for you due to not even being able to get abother one evolved yet

Yes I agree. My first dragonite was 85% and is still serviceable.

I would go with the nearly maxed 86.7% IV one. That is still excellent and will only be beaten out by higher IV nites and TRex in gym hierarchy.

Evolve and power up both...

If you don't have enough gym defenders for now and the 86.7% is decent enough at your level for a gym, do that one first.

Walk the other for more candies and power up in a few months...

It's nice to at least have mons which can/will be powered up. I probably wouldn't mind getting a level 1 Eevee which evolves into a Vaporeon and I'd probably still burn 200k+ dust just to sit it in a gym.

Lack of defenders makes you do silly things (near 900k dust now).

I have a few defenders, but looking for new ones. I'm just being a bit more precise with what I plan on using to power up and evolve. I don't have anywhere near enough candy to think of powering up the higher IV dratini.

Heh, I'm gonna bite the bullet and pour all the candies I have into the 1 blissey I have that is 97%. Then I have A LOT more walking
to to so I can evolve #2, AND power up (it's a TON of walking which blows....)
