Power up IV78 Mewtwo
So me and luck are not friends. I have managed to get 2 Mewtwo but they are both poor IV at 78. EX raid passes are rare for me and that is not likely to change soon.
Seems to me that they are still worth of boosting to level 30 since I am a long way from deleting them.
Stardust is not a concern and I seem to aquire about 20 rare candy a week from Raids.
What are your thoughts?

OK, but IMHO I think you are a bit obsessed with 15 attack IV. If this person has a 14 attack Mewtwo, then do you think he should just delete it? I would go check what the battle sims say is the difference but most of us already know the difference between a 15 and one a few points lower are marginal. Break point geeks will probably quote a lot of math on this but for practical purposes, the poster has a decent Mewtwo even at 78%
Totally agree with the unnecessary obsession of 15A IV for Mewtwo. In fact, is there a relevant breakpoint with Psycho Cut that people need to reach with a total Attack of 315 that can't be reached with 314? Because for Confusion or the charge moves it is unlikely to make any real difference over a fight for the time Mewtwo lasts in battle.
Any Mewtwo is worth it IMO. It’s stats and uses are too good and convenient to be cast aside, especially if EX eligible gyms are not very accessible to you, or if Mewtwo are simply not very common for you
Mewtwo is one instance in which you shouldn’t make IVs too much of a significant factor. It’s got somewhat similar exclusivity to Mew. You get an invite, you catch it there (or not), but unlike Mew you may get another one...or not.
I have two, the best is 87% weather boosted but it's attack is only 10 so I'm leaving it as it is. The other has lower IV and attack 13 and I'm also leaving it alone. If I ever get one >90% with 15 or maybe even 14 attack I would power it up. As they are they both make solo of Machamp much more realistic for me. Saving my dust for other stuff for now.
I threw 4 away....however, I have 6 others and another invite for 22nd. I think the OP should keep these, but wait for another couple attempts--when invites start coming they keep on coming. Mewtwo isn't crucial right now, unless you are on the cusp of an Alakazam battle...well, that'll be gone again in a few days
Thanks for the feedback. I think I will take these to level 30. I have a small group of 4-5 that takes on the L4-5 raids and so even if these guys do not make the final "A" team they likely can come off the bench if needed. My First M2 was in September. Second on Saturday. It is not like I am going to have an army of them any time soon.
