The Nth TM question, but this time it's about Charizard

I have a Charizard with Wing Attack and flamethrower. That moveset is quite good for dodging. I wonder if it is worth to give her a charge TM in hope of getting Overheat or Fire Blast, or flamethrower is a good legacy moveset?

I'd say Flamethrower is preferable to Fire Blast, so you'd only have a 1/3 chance of getting a better move. Up to you, but I probably wouldn't waste the TM as they might not be as abundant forever.

I have two of these movesets (wa/ft) and I have no desire to change either.

With the ability to obtain a solid Iv
Charizard from a raid battle, I would wait for one of those to invest in (although they don't have access to wing attack).

Flamethrower is a great move: a relatively short cooldown with only slightly less dps than fire blast, while being a 2-bar charge move is stunning. For these reasons I wouldn't change it!

OK, luckily I got myself a FS/OH Charizard already. I am still keeping my WA/DC Charizard just in case PvP would come. So I am not touching any Charizard for now.

I have a Flamethrower and a Fireblast variant and I prefer the 2 bar charge move of the Flamethrower. I wouldn't trade it for Fireblast. Well overheat is a different story but getting the best moveset on Charizard isn't really a sure way to go. You can get Dragon Claw which is basically worse than any of its charge moves. Plus, it's legacy and it has STAB. Why change it?

I have two 2500-2600CP Arcanine with Flamethrower and love them. Wouldn't change them for anything, for the exact reason you mentioned... it is great for dodging.

I absolutely hate using Fireblast. Way too long. So the chance of getting that is not worth it IMO.

As well since it is legacy I would 100% keep it.
