Also, you should have no problem using your tracker to locate plenty of Eggxecutes for candy.

Honestly, who knows what what will be worth anything when trading finnally comes around. But yeah, find you a nest, grab you some candy.

I powered up the exact 98 IV mon from 800 and at level 31, it's 2598 cp and sitting at the bottom of the gym. I am very happy with it but would be happier if my level were high enough to get it to at least 2700+ cp...

Considering this factors

A) Dust is hard to get
B) Good IV along with Good Moveset is even harder

I have:
1) Vaporeon 802 WG/HP 95%
2) Heracross 992 C/CC 91%
3) Starmie 1073 WG/HP 93%

Lvl 27. 170k Dust. Those are my best pokemon with LOW CP.

Recently I evolved around 4-5 good pokemon with Good IV but movesets were Trash. I believe those pokemons will make me "waste" a lof of dust but I think at least 1) and 2) should be priority for me. I'm not getting any other good pokemon. Not even from hatches.

What do you think? they are low but in the end they will be machines wich is not easy to find. I use to find wild Heracross 2000 all weekends but horrible IV so perhaps I can wait a bit more. Definitely I never saw a Wild Vaporeon, never....

Do it with the Vape, he can be also a defender and IV matters in that case.
Wait a bit with Hera since it will be only an attacker so IV not so relevant, so a 2k wild one with good moveset can be good enough.
Use Starmie for prestiging into rhydons.

I honestly don't think many things would be worth trading at all. It has been quoted that the high level Niantic execs who are involved with actual game design/development thinks trading should be done in real life/people you know vs. random people on the wide Internet...

That being the case, a 98% mon is not going to fetch much with anyone IMO.

This is also because unlike the TCGO (which is all I know since I never played the video games), some cards are actually very rare/hard to get (Shaymin-EX) which you needed for some decks to actually function/work so everyone wanted to trade for it.

The Pokemon in Go are simply generic copies or each other and no mon is really that needed.

This is why you don't really need to power up any attackers (needed now to deal with Blissey, but that's all). Yes, it makes life easier, but a SeB Eggs is more a defender and with such low CP, it's pretty useless I feel for trading and defense. At least in my area where you need 2900+ CP to prevent being shaved off.
