Aron/Aggron Evolution

I don't think this one merits spending a bunch of dust/candies to catch one in raid at level 20 and then powering up, as we have a couple of reasonably good candidates already that are over level 30. This is for my wife's account. We raid with a group that usually has ~10 trainers on our team, so this is basically a 2nd anchor to keep her from having to go to a second team and spend more revives.

1. CP 1090, LV34, 82%, 13a/10d/14s
2. CP 1068, LV32, 84%, 15a/9d/14s
3. CP 1066, LV32, 87%, 14a/14d/12s

Leaning toward #3, but would we be better off with the 15a in #2?

Already have one Aggron, 2754/35/87%/15a/11d/13s.

I was going to say go with 1 since it's not going to get powered up further so the difference in IV likely matters less than the 2 additional levels. Since it's being used as an anchor, that tiny bit of added survivability can sometimes be useful. However, 2 and 3 reach a Stone Edge breakpoint that 1 does not and deal 1 more damage (97 vs 96). Obviously that's a stupidly small difference unlikely to ever matter, but it is there. So pick whichever you prefer, maybe 2 because it'll have easier time to reach future breakpoints in case that's necessary.

I don't like any of these.

I can't speak for whereever you live, but here good IV Weather boosted Aron's are all over the place. Being boosted by Partly Cloudy helps a lot, but all mons that have two different weather boosts seem easiest to find winners for.

I say: hold out for great than 90% and greater than Lvl 30.

Exactly because they're so common I would not hold out. Why wait when you can easily accumulate the candy for the next one? They need it for Ray now and Ray is only here until Friday, after which Aggron loses most of its relevancy.

Thats a good point. There will always be a better Aron but there will also always be more Aron candy to spend on it. One thing i would never do is power one up.

In that case, go for the one with the highest bulkpoint.
