Perfect Charizard - legacy moves - what to do?
I have a Perfect Charizard that's been sitting forever that I've levelled up to 26 over time (due primarily to boredom) - Wing Attack / Dragon Claw
I have a Charge TM - should I try to gain a new charge move?
Or, should I change both the Quick and/or only the Charge?
I read something about Dragon Claw being useful for Mega Charizard- if/when it happens - better to stay as is?
Thanks!

If you love Charizard, and have the resources, it would be safe to power it since it's perfect. In terms of its moves, I recommend not using any TMs on it for now because I believe there are better things to use TMs on. Regardless of moveset, it's going down being placed in a gym. If you're looking into the very far future i.e. Mega Charizard, ya DC will be interesting for Mega Charizard X (for those who don't play the vgc, he has 2 megas, X/Y).
Edit: Yes currently the preferred moves FS/OH
mega evolutions were introduced in gen 6 and we only got gen 2 a little over half a year after the initial release. if the game stays on track then you're looking at around 2 years until gen 6. who knows if you're still playing by then.
I wouldn't change wing attack with it being legacy and it's actually a good move. doesn't do as much damage as air slash or fire spin but it's more dodge-friendly and has higher energy gain which offsets that damage.
if you only wanted to change the quick move so you have a DC charizard you could just evolve another charizard without removing a legacy moveset pokemon from the game.
plus mega charizard X has fire/dragon typing so you probably wouldn't want wing attack with dragon claw since it wouldn't have STAB, you'd want FS/DC a moveset you can currently get anyway.
personally I'd keep the charge TM for something higher tier than a charizard but if you're buying premium raid passes so TM rarity won't be an issue, and you want this charizard as your main fire attacker you could use a charge TM on it.
