Blissey 14/15/10

Should I max it as defender in gyms, it has crappy moveset pound and hyper beam, my other blisey 15/15/14 has pound and dazzling gleam, already maxed out cp for 33 lvl. I have 2 more chansey's to evolve 84 and 87 iv...

Sure...and when it isn't in a gym it will make a decent sweeper attacker.
If the gym rework happens as people predict, she will be a decent sweeper for nearly any gym to clear out anything at the bottom.

Best attacking moveset, and it's still good on defence because any Blissey is. I'd rather spend 50 candies on that Blissey than evolving another Chansey. It's not a bad moveset at all.

Regardless of whether the IVs listed are atk/def/sta or sta/atk/def they're still really good IVs too.

If it's 14 or 15 attack, go for it. For comparing Chansey/Blissey, 1 att = 3 def = 6 stam holds fairly true. If that 10 is stamina, there really isn't much room for improvement.

It is atk def sta in that order, gamepress said that's not very good defensive moveset...

No, it's not as good as the other movesets, but that doesn't make it bad. That's like saying DT + H Dragonite is not a very good moveset because it isn't as good as DT + O.

Any Blissey is still better on defense than any other Pokemon in the game with their best moveset.

A better comparison would be SW/HB Dragonite vs. DT/O Dragonite. The SW/HB Dragonite is MUCH easier to defeat, and so is the P/HB Blissey. The only requirement is dodging 3 or 4 HB's, and there is so much advance warning for HB that there is no reason to ever miss a dodge.

Wht's the level of that Blissey ?
Hyper Beam is so so dodge friendly...maybe considering to keep it as a prestiger ?
A 22XXCP Blissey can take down 3 31XXCP beasts by dodging charge move.

If you just want to put them in gyms then what does moveset matter? It doesn't affect their CP.

As long as you're not putting a Blissey near or at the bottom of the gym and making it harder to prestige up, any Blissey is benefitting a gym.

So I should max it in CP and put it in gym? I will evolve 2 more because I have 2 more chansey's with 13 13 13 stat and 14 13 12. True any moveset is good, IV's are important, they are all bulky, in my town there are only 6 gyms...

I wouldn't power it up if your intention is to use it as a defender. P/HB Blissey really is not a great defender, and it definitely is not better than the next-best pokemon with the best moveset. The only thing Blissey with that moveset has going for it is that it takes a little longer to defeat, but a knowledgeable attacker will know with 100% certainty that he will defeat the Blissey, and he'll have a pretty good idea what the cost will be. It is just so predictable. A ZH/BS Snorlax, or an AT Vaporeon, or even a DT/O or DT/C Gyarados is much more likely to land some charge attacks that can screw up an attacker's plan.

As an attacker, the P/HB Blissey would be useful, but I wouldn't power it up past level 30 for that purpose. Personally, I'd take a shot at getting a great defensive moveset with one of the other Chanseys, or just hold onto your candies for a while.

My 3rd Blissey 13 13 13 iv got pound and dazzling gleam, same as my 1st blissey 15 15 14 (atk def sta), will max that one instead pound and hyper beam. Anyway machamp is ultra rare in my town and machops, machokes, only 2 people has machamps but everyone has dragonites and snorlaxes, could get zh and dg blissey but I'm happy she did not get pound psychic or zh psychic. I like pound more as a first move because everyone here is using dragonite, exeguttor, alakazam or espeon to take her out btw only 5 blisseys in town, 3 are mine :D.

i use p/hb blissey as a sweeper.
at 3000 CP it's amazing to see her at work.
even if the connection is really bad and you miss chargemoves.
(she has no visible neck ... i think she just shruggs it off)
with my usual teammate we rarely need more than just a blissey and a decent dragon each to go through any gym in town.
it's doesn't feel clever like picking a team along the weaknesses of the defending line but it works.

cheers
