Legendary Buddy Dilema

I just hatched a Bagon (+64 candy) that made it possible for me to finish maxing out my Salamence a few weeks ahead of schedule.

This leaves me wondering, who should I walk next?
-Larvitar: curently sitting on 102 candies but I already have 3 maxed out ttars + 2 lvl 30s so I don't think I really need more of that
-Dratini: 702 candies (enough said)
-Bedlum: 362 candies (likely enough to evolve a Metagross and max it out once i find a good candidate, and don't plan on powering up more than 1)

So I'm pretty much done with pseudo-legendaries until gen 4
I don't fell I have any urgent needs, and other buddy candidates could be Chansey (I'm not to keen on powering up more defenders though, mostly because of dust) or Togepi (in preparation for gen4).

On the other side, I'm pretty rare candy starved and have a Groudon, Mewtoo, Kyogre, Rayray, Ho-Oh and soon a Latios on the candy waiting line.
Being in said position and with the halved buddy distance I'm finding the Legendary Buddy idea more and more appealing, at least during this event. What do you guys think, should I walk Lengenday mons? if not, what am I missing?
Thanks for the feedback!

Gardevoir? It can be half defender and half attacker, so not useless.

Hmm, I didn't think about that... I have almost enough candy to max one out, but with Gallade comming up it might be wise to stock up on Raltz candy indeed.

I have 100% Gardevoir at 2816, so a little work to max it--one of the few I'd want to show off at busy gyms. I'll save any remaining Ralts candy for the future. Salamence maxed. Walking Beldum now, had bad luck: only hatched one 2k Beldum...won't bother collecting to max though.

You could get a start on the gen 4 evolutions if there are some that are rare in your area. As dumb as it may be, I am walking Wailmer because I don't see them around here and I don't want to get caught in the situation that people just were with Gyarados.

There are plenty of whales and swablus where I am so I'm covered in that sense.

I immediately switched to Wailmer after I got my Gyarados for the exact same reason but I think Celebi's Research Quest will involve using all the Evo items to evolve Politoed, Steelix, etc. Wailord and Altaria probably won't be a requirement til they get to Gen 3 mythicals but I will be ready!

I am walking Absol. He looks cool and is semi-useful. Candy distance is 5 km, thus still short enough to yield some output. And it is freaking hard to get, at least for me, as it is next to impossible to find someone interested in doing a duo raid on him.

True, once everybody in a raid group gets a shiny one, it's over. Not the one I'd choose to max out, though...
