98% ZH/Solar Beam eggexcutor. Power up?

This isnt a humblebrag post. Its a genuine question.

I have a level 20, 98% eggexcutor with ZH/Solar beam. I want to know whether you would power this up? I want him mostly for killing all the god damn vaeporeons every noob has.

For this reason, I wanted to know if a eggexcutor with bulletseed/Solar beam would be better as it would have 2 grass moves?

Also, if I level this eggexcutor up, it would be all the way to my max trainer level (36.5) and not just to 30. I know attackers don't need to get past 30 but i want to have the option of leaving this eggexcutor in a gym to mess with all the vaepoeron attackers so CP is important.

Tough call, ZH/SoB is really good but slightly worse than the new ES/SoB as a generalist.

If attacking Vapes were your only use then from my experience BS/SoB=ES/SoB>ZH/SoB. (Not by much though.) ES/SoB is my current favorite Eggy though because it takes on Snorlax & Blissey better. ZH/SoB is also great for that.

On defense CP does matter so that 98% is sweet. C/P is the best moveset but that's secondary.

from 20->30
75K dust, 66 candies.

from30->36
78K dust, 84 candies.

total 150 candies. the cost to power up 2 eggys 20->31.

I would power up the 98% iv you got to 30 as attacker. try to get another defender.

Congratulations! I would say powering up is a good choice. Mine has confusion, but now you can no longer get that move, but zen headbutt is just a slightly worst quick move. But if Solar beam is your main concern, then I am sure it will payoff.

Against a neutral opponent (Snorlax Blissey) ZH/SoB is about 1% better than BS/SoB. However, against Vaporeon BS/SoB is almost 10% better, against Rhydon that jumps to closer to 20%

lol, the truth is that your exegg can't kill all of the Vapes!
I have a ton of exegg don't use them anymore. Venu is the way to go as far as Vapes imo.
