How strong/effeciency is a C/DP Machamp against Blissey/Snorlax, in comparison to a C/Beam Exeggutor?
Hi fellow trainers,
Since the release of Gen 2 with Blissies dominating all Gyms, I have tried to catch and evolve Machamps, but the results are really frustrating to me, 3 Machamps with the following movesets: BulletPunch/DynamicPunch, Counter/HeavySlam and today is a BulletPunch/HeavySlam.
So I want to have your advice on whether I should try for a real fighting Machamp? Is it worth the effort? How strong is he in comparison to a C/Beam Exeggutor (I luckily have some SolarBeam Eggys prior to Gen 2 release, no Extrasensory up to now), I mean at the same CP.
Thank you all in advance.

That site is unreliable. It lists movesets that mix legacy and non-legacy moves that are simply not available.
Of course I would love to have a Dragon Tail/DC Dragonite.
Or a Dragon Breath/Outrage Dragonite. But they do not exist.
I oppose such misinformation.
And the moveset rankings are based on DPS alone.
Eggy gets a boost if the Blissey has ZH and/or Psychic because of the resistance. The attacks aren't as strong as Machamp, but he'll get the job done unless there is a big difference in strength.
I finally decided to blow my dust on a L17, 98IV eggy with C/SB who I had been sitting on for awhile. He's now at 2722 and almost always makes it into my lineup.
