What should I do with this legacy Gyarados?

Should I power him as a dragon killer or r his IVs to low 48.9% 15/5/2. I have used him and he makes quick work of dragons but I have a Lapras and a clyoster also.

I personally don't power up anything below 85%IV, I would make an exception with something like this as it has a legacy moveset but if you have a Lapras with a good moveset it will make the job so much better than Gyarados that still does not worth the investment.

I suggest just keep it as a nice trophy ;)

You got one of the rarest pokemons, would that not be a shame if You don't tresor it...

Okay IVs but its double attacks are more important, and You can't get a better one anymore... Just power this beauty up :

I have one with the same moveset, powered up to the max, after the stat changes it replaced Dewgong as my main dragon killer. I also have Lapras with FB/IB and FB/Blizzard, but the Gyarados is easier to power up because Magikarp candy is easier to get than Lapras candy, and it also feels better when dodging somehow.

I just hatched a FB/IB Lapras but don't yet have FB/B. How do you think ice beam compares to blizzard for attacking?

I think it's about the same. I personally prefer two-bar moves like Ice Beam, they can be fired faster and often three suffice, also you don't waste energy while spamming your fast move and waiting for the opponent's charge move to dodge it.

I'd power him up and use him. As an attacker the IVs aren't that important.

Thats a great Gyarados, my legacy one has water pump and I would prefer dragon pulse, even with the bad IVs. and yours is great 15 ATK! Like you said, dragon killer!

Is not 15 Atk, it's 15 Sta... i think.
My legacy Gyarados 15/15/3 has DB/Twister... I hate it so much!! lol
So this one could be just sitting there as a trophy!
