Now that Groudon is gone i want to choose 3 of them and want your opinion about it:
First you must know that a want one (maybe the best) to powered up (Ground atacker), the second one I want it with SB as a charge move (maybe will powered up but not in a short time), the thirth will be store till we can exchange pokemon (for my brother that couldn't catch a wonderful Groudon).

This are the candidates:

CP -- Atk / Def / HP -- Moves -- %
1) 2870 -- 14 / 15 / 11 -- DT/SB -- 89%
2) 2846 -- 11 / 12 / 14 -- DT/FB -- 82%
3) 2295 -- 13 / 14 / 13 -- MS/E -- 89%
4) 2294 -- 15 / 14 / 10 -- DT/SB -- 87%
5) 2278 -- 11 / 15 / 12 -- DT/SB -- 84%

Wich would you choose for each case?

1,3,4 not only are they the 3 highest IVs but also have the highest atk stat

4 for Ground attacker, the higher IV could reach a potential breakpoint that lower attack IVs cannot and if it's purpose is a ground attacker then the Mud Slap damage matters.

1 or 3 for Solar Beam. Also high attack IV but because your quick move is mostly used just to get energy, if there's a breakpoint that a 13 or 14 attack IV cannot reach it won't matter as much when most of your damage will come from Solar Beam anyway, but it's still beneficial to hit breakpoints even if the difference is minor.

Agreed on 1,3 and 4.

Power-up 4, keep 1 and give your brother 3 - unless you want to b extra nice to him then swap 1 & 3.

FTM away DT and I suggest that you don't CTM away SB till Earthquake actually becomes relevant again (say regirock or raikou or anything else like that comes back)

You should power up the SoB Groudon first, not the other way around. EQ Groudon isn't useful for much right now whereas SoB Groudon is a great counter to Thunder Kyogre.
