Blissey with P/DG. Is it good enough?
Hi all,
Does anyone have any experience using Blissey with P/DG as a defender or battling against it in a gym?
Does it perform well and last long in the gym?
Is it nearly as good as ZH/DG and better than ZH/HB?
I have been trying my luck at getting ZH/DG but to no avail after trying for a couple of times, been walking with chansey as my buddy all these while as well.
Should I continue to save up on the candies and roll the dice again or just power up this P/DG to the max?
I do have a ZH/HB maxed out but find that it doesn't last long in the gym.
In fact it gets kick out in less than 30 mins :(
Not sure whether is it due to the large number of spoofers or the performance of this moveset :(

Here, in my local biome, Blissey is a considered a magnet. Yes, it is an awesome defender... Arguably the best due to toughness and timeout probability but people tend to test that fact. Plus, it's the best Pokémon to practice your strongest mons. Seeing your pride and joy Dragonite destroy the so-called best defender in the gane is just satisfying. Anyway... To answer your question, I believe that Blissey's greatest threat is her bulk. Causing players to timeout. While ZH/DG is arguably its best defensive moveset, Any powered up Blissey is a pain to tackle. If I were you, I'd be happy I have one. Just don't rush. You'll get her eventually. Up to you if you want to max your current one. If you're lacking defenders, you can probably do so.
For me P/DG is the more versatile and the best Blissey moveset at this point, the only benefit of ZH is that is SE against fighting mon that will probably attack Blissey, but anyway P will fire more often and does benefit from STAB.
I would power up P/DG to the max, I have done it and now it is a beast with 3033CP, no regrets at all. As long as you don't get Psychic for me any Blissey is a must power up. And if you get DG any quick move is more than perfect.
Bring that Blissey (regardless of moveset) above 3k if you can.
Of course some of Blissey's movesets are better than others but a high CP Blissey is a pain to deal with, first and foremost. Secondly if it comes to defensive moves then I would rate P/DG as 2nd best being SE against Dragonite and Tyranitar and Machamp, its 3 most common and arguably most effective attackers.
Moveset isn't that important that it get kicks out immediately or not. Someone decides to take a gym down, whether it has P/DG, ZH/DG or P/P.
Trained a gym and put my blissey ZH/DG in it, was level 8 with 4 blisseys, gone in a day.
But to answer your question, P/DG is good. only ZH/DG is better. Also i have the feeling that Blissey attracks attackers to try it out.
