Which Groudon should I power up?

2312 15/14/13 93% max cp lvl 40 = 4046
2310 15/15/12 93% max cp lvl 40 = 4043

I'm not sure how relevant Groudon's Def and HP stats are and would love advice. Thanks!

Honestly, either or would be a good option to power up. Groudon has high base defense (250), so having a 14 defense IV versus 15 will likely make no difference whatsoever.

On a similar note, when maxed out, the difference between your Groudons in terms of HP is 1. The one with 13 stamina IV will max out with 154 hp, while the one with a 12 stamina IV will have 153 hp.

So you can't really go wrong either way as far as I can tell.

2312 first, no question. If you can, power up both, but give one Earthquake and one Solar Beam.

This is the best example of splitting hairs - a scenario that either option will almost never make a difference on.

I'm usually a fan of defense over HP since a defensive breakpoint (even if incredibly unlikely) is more likely to make a difference with a bulky mon like Groudon than 1 HP will.

Either that or put a spider in a cup and throw it into the air and if the spider lives pick A, if not B.

Unless using a glass cannon you DON'T want to hit bulk points, it'll charge you bar quicker, increasing DPS

If you use a glass cannon, the spider will be dead by the time it flies... ;-)

Wouldn't say it's useless. Mud Shot/Solar Beam is quite useful against Thunder Kyogre and in clear weather it's the best Regirock counter if it has Mud Shot and either Solar Beam or Earthquake.

I think it's really stupid that people answer with "none of those" followed by a bad argument. The person who asks these questions decided (s)he wants to power up one, so telling that person not to and supporting that opinion with a non-argument is really really stupid. Especially when the pokemon in question is actually not bad/easily outclassed.
