Mewtwo best raw Dps Moveset
Heya,
I was lucky enough to catch a 100% Mewtwo and am wondering which Moveset will be the best for raw Dps, I dont care about dodging since I swim in Potions, so which performs better?
Psycho Cut - Shadowball
or
Confusion - Shadowball?
(Assuming Shadowball is the overall best Charge Attack)

Raw DPS is only good if the charge move is not resisted. Yes, Shadow Ball has the best DPS, but if you use it against any normal type defender, it sucks, as normal type is immune to Ghost (.51 damage). I use my Mewtwo (3818) against gyms as my primary attacker, so I switched to Focus Blast to use against Blissey/Snorlax/Chansey.
I also like to dodge, so after experimenting with PC, then C for awhile, I switched back to and am happy with PC.
Future Sight would be nice, but Mewtwo only learns Psychic. Under the current system, there's not really a reason to plan your Mewtwo for Gym Attacking instead of Raiding, if you only manage to get one. One good Dragonite, one good Alakazam, and one good Machamp, each with their ideal movesets are plenty to deal with just about any gym.
The way I see if, if you're fighting anything that a 2-bar fighter such as Outrage Dragonite couldn't 1 hit with its charge move, then you should be using a Machamp.
Otherwise, get a second Mewtwo that knows Focus Blast, but if I only had one Mewtwo I wouldn't have him solely be my replacement-Machamp
