Lucky bastard. No offense. Anyway... If I were you, I'd power up the DB/DC. DT/O is awesome as well but I really prefer DB. Now if we can have DB/O that would be perfect (for me). Now for the Blissey, again you lucky bastard. All of them have awesome IV distribution. I'm really torn but I'll probably choose either 1st or 3rd since HB still deals the highest DPS among the choices. For Alakazam, definitely PC/FS. IVs really don't matter unless you're gonna use him to defend. Nevertheless, I won't power him up if I were you. Still, he's fun but I prefer Gengar with SC/SB now. Your call though.
Power up question
I have been eyeing up some potential candidates, here are the juicy deets:
I am in no need of defenders; I live a very rural area with access to 5+ gyms that have not been contested (some since the game's release!). However, once in a while I drop down from the max 10 daily collect, and I figure I could benefit (although not necessary) from more gym defenders. I have what I believe to be a wide enough array of attackers; I am in no need of attackers either (imo). With this information, which of these, if any, would you power up [i'll provide the candy I have]? I already have my thoughts about each one but I want to see where I stand from the general vote ~~
Dragonite - 1739 - 100% - SW/HBI currently have two dragonites sitting over 3200 (fully maxed), one with DB/DC, one with DT/O. Both decent ivs (87 + 93). I know SW/HB is not a fantastic moveset, but is it worth powering up a perfect iv for the sake of gym placement? One concern I have is for the upcoming/future gym rework. If cp becomes something irrelevant (i.e. The mechanics change such that gym placement isn't ordered by cp), then this dragonite will be some poop. I have nearly 200 candies and i'm sitting on a 91% dratini, however if I don't decide to power this SW/HB up I may just wait until I find a higher IV dratini or power the 91% up.
Blissey - 2849 - 80% (15a/15d/6s) - P/HB Blissey - 1837 - 97% (15/15/14) - P/P Blissey - 1834 - 93% (15/15/12) - Z/HBI took advantage of the valentine's event and stocked up on chansey candies, I have 350+ at the moment. Originally, the 80% was around 26XX prior to powering it up some (1206 chansey?) The part that stings is the lack of the highest appraisal. However, even with a lack of 9 hp IVs, this bish will max out to 3145 (max is at 3173). I have some other chansey's in the 82-89% iv range have different ivs and pan out to 309X-313X range, and after factoring that in, i decided to power this one up initially. After a few power-ups, I reconsidered, and have yet to further power her up.
This is the species I would like some feedback about; as you can see, two of mine already have beautiful IVs and will sit higher (3170 and 3163, respectively). However, I don't know if the difference of 18-25 cp is worth powering one of these two beauties in favor of the 80%. P/HB is great for offense and will double as an attacker.
Would it be worth powering each of them up to have three solid defenders? or is it worth just focusing on two or one, or go for another re-roll? Ideally I would like a blissey with Dazzling Gleam and a high max cp, but I know that chansey candies are precious and once they're used up, there is no undoing that action.
Alakazam - 2629 - 93% (14/15/13?) - PC/SB Alakazam - 1632 - 91% (14/12/15) - PC/FSUntil I obtained the 1632 a couple of weeks ago, I had been powering up the 2629. Is it worth the difference in candies and start dust to start powering up the second? Would you continue to keep powering up the first, switch to the second, or power them both up (~140 candies)? Is the difference between SB and FS substantial enough to invest stardust and candies in?
Any feedback would be very much appreciated
