Answering your question with a question. If you do not get the desired moves would you use a TM to fix it? If no then no way. If you are swimming in tms and torchic candy then maybe.

I would wait; egg hatch ivs range from 67% (30/45) to 100% (45/45) giving the average egg hatch an average of those to be an 83%. In fact, with the number of possible iv combinations, the amount that are greater than 73% greatly significantly outnumber the number of combinations that are equal to or less than 73%.

Functionally, at least at the moment, blaziken is arguably outclassed by better options for both fire and fighting types. That's just how I view your situation.

The lv 34 is appealing, but I would still hold off, eessppeecciiallllyy if you plan on maxing it out at some point in the future

i wouldn't power it up i just thought having a high level one would be useful in raids. The only investment i would have to make is the candy

I'd wait. It is still early in gen 3, and you will surely get a better one soon. If you get close to 250 candies and you still haven't gotten a better one, then you can evolve this one, and still be able to evolve a better one when you inevitably find it.

The level is tempting. 11 atk IV at level 34 is probably around the breakpoints for 15 atk IV at levels 31-32. A lot of peeps here only want 15 atk IV, but also don't power much above 30. If you have enough Torchic candy, this could get you a Blaziken without any stardust invested. If you want a Blaziken to max out though, then maybe wait for better IVs.

I evolved my L35 80IV because out of the many I caught during the event it was the best one I found, I didn't plan on powering up Blaziken, and this one was a high level that might have had some use that an unpowered low level egg hatch wouldn't.

But I had a bunch of candies so I'm also waiting for a really good one and have that luxury.

If you regularly have clear weather, wait. I would evolve that one in a heartbeat but that's because it's nearly impossible for me to catch one above L30 and I don't think Blaziken is worth dust.
