Should I Charge TM a Dragon Pulse Gyarados in prepare for Mewtwo?
As in the title.
He's maxed at level 39, used to be gym keeper but not anymore since the rework.
For Mewtwo raid, I have only two level 30+ Tyranitar. I do have some other maxed Dragonites but I'm thinking Bite Gyrados is better than DB Dragonite in this fight, or am I wrong?
I don't intend to spend Stardust on powering up another T-tar from Level 20 (I don't have high IV Tyranitars that are worth the dust either). I would rather play the TM game.
My only concern is that Dragon Pulse is legacy and, in the future, may be a powerful move again. He is the only Gyarados I have who knows Dragon Pulse.
Would you pull the trigger?
Thanks in advance.

Same boat here. Its a legacy move but it isn't a good legacy move. Only if trading ever becomes a thing will it even matter. I'd rather have Bite/Crunch or Bite/Hydro Pump or Bite/Anything else for the coming raids then sit on a bad moveset for a theoretical mode sometime in the future. We'll see. lol
I've been wondering the same. Not a ton of Magikarps in my area, so I only have two Garys. One is Bite/Hydropump and the other is Bite/Dragon Pulse. Both are 35.5, so it seems a bit silly to hold onto one of my strongest Mon for hypothetical uses when he could do a job now. But of course I can't get the move back if I TM it.
One thing that tempts me to TM it is that since Gary doesn't have STAB for it, it'll always be a niche-use attack rather than a max-dragon-type-damage Mon. Still, I've yet to pull the trigger.
