100% Gengar or Legacy Moveset Gengar?

Quick question which Gengar (if any) would be worth Dust? Can't decide if I should stick with legacy moveset or take my 100% one up. The legacy Gengar has about 90% IVs as well. Thanks in advance!

Which legacy move does it have? Sludge Wave and Dark Pulse aren't anything special but Shadow Claw is it's best quick move.

There's a big difference between advising someone to power up a Sucker Punch + Dark Pulse Gengar and one with Shadow Claw + Shadow Ball or Sludge Bomb.

If it's got Shadow Claw, power it up for sure over the perfect one, because the moveset is far more important than a few more IV points.

Gengar is useless unless it has the legacy Shadow Claw.

Guys... Hex/Shadowball still does 97% of the DPS of Shadow Claw/Shadowball calm down.

Straight DPS don't mean much in real life battle. SC is fast and easy to dodge. All other fast move sucks.

Yeah sucker punch is some sh*t. Hex does generate energy muuch faster, but I still prefer SC.

And if only real life battles existed... "Fck my car broke down. Pidgey use fly! Carry me home!!"

Pidgey? Let's be realistic, you can give pidgey an item and he could use fly but pidgey ain't carrying anyone. I wouldn't even trust Pidgeotto. This is where i release Arcanine and ride that mofo into the sunset.
