2306 CP Groudon. Now what?

Got a 91% Groudon in a raid today, but it has DT/FB. Should I use my last charged TM on it? By the way, Kyogre doesn't deserve a charged TM imo, every of its charged move has its uses.

My other charged TM candidates:
Clefable with ZH/Psychic (2xxx CP)
Pinsir with RS/VG (level 20)
Espeon with Confusion/Psychic (22xx CP)

I'd love to hear your reasoning for potentially charge-TM'ing the level 20 RS/VG Pinsir.

Vice grip is a joke of a move but I don't know if the move, the pokemon, or the level of the pokemon is the biggest joke......

Vice Grip is just so damn bad.

You obviously do a lot of raids. So you obviously waste a lot of charge TM's.

Please do not use charge TMs on a pokemon that does not have an immediate battle value. A level 20 groudon doesn't do much in the grand scheme of things regardless of IVs. Charge TMs are for high level pokemon that would otherwise be a complete disaster if the moves were not changed.

e.g. evolve a level 35 eevee and get water pulse. Or a treecko evolve that learns earthquake. That is a complete disaster and should be charge TMed to get something immediately competitive. Not a level 20 pokemon.

I have more than 700000 stardust and the rare candies lol.

I think you should keep trying to raid a bit more if you can get a better one (IV or move) till end of event, unless you’re already tired to raid for Groudon anymore.

I feel like that raiding Groudon is like wasting raid passes lol. I want to try to solo more tier 3s.

I'm not that interested in soloing tier 3s, but if they let Rhydon come back as a boss and you could catch it at level 30, how many times would you go through the trouble? Even at level 35 would you do it 20+ times? I guess solar beam as a possibility makes catching 5 to 10 a little interesting, yours has fireblast though***just did Ninetales with rain boost, started at 175, ended with 5 secs left FS/OH. 5 double water Gyarados 2994 to 2765. At a Sprint gym, got me almost to gold, worth a free pass flyer

Wasting raid passes? Only if you have 500+ Rare Candy and 50+ TMs!

Why do you want to TM pinsir and Clefable?

Yes. Anything is better than FB. And if you do t5 raids, you'll get more TMs.

Kyogre actually deserves a CTM when it has Thunder, which is a so bad move, with the water MS it’s the best water attacker and with DT/ B is great as a dragon slayer
