What's everyones' best non optimal Pokémon?

Mines is my level 35 98% Arcanine w/ FF/FB pride and joy, and I wouldn't trade it for any Dragonite, Snorlax, Blissey, or Tyranitar lol.

I have a 98% and it is awesome but I don't know if you would call that non optimum (I remember getting it before it got buffed and being disappointed)

My only useful perfect mon is a 100% Arcanine FF/FB and I agree his is pretty cool but at the top of my list is this great vape and rhydon killer that I use even more:

my 2500 CP 82% IV arcanine FF/FB, was my first evolution, it has been with me since august last year, it helped me a lot to win battles in the early days where there was variety in the gyms

My 100% Bite/Hyperbeam Aerodactly...which I just hatched out of a 2k egg about 30 minutes ago.

Back at the beginning of the game my first super-rare mon was an Aerodactyl out of a 10k egg. back then nobody was level 30 and even the hard core players were hard pressed to see an Aerodactyl. I forget it's moveset, but it was suboptimal. Since then I have hoarded Aerodactyls. I had 5 for the longest time. As if almost irony, they always had crap movesets with high IV. But tonight? Tonight at almost level 36 I hatched a perfect IV Aerodactyl with the A-rated attacking moveset. Now - I know that Aerodactyl is useless even at 100%IV with it's best attacking moveset, but for somone like me that had a sentimental attachment to this still rare mon it was quite cool.

So - long story made short, this 30 minute old Aerodactly is by far my favorite non-optimal mon.

I have a Scyther 95.6% IV with Steel Wing and Bug Buzz. Both of his moves are legacy moves now. I will not be evolving him (I had another Scyther I evolved). Eventually I will power him all the way up (Current CP is 1712).

i have a 100% gyrados with bite/dragon pulse. Was good in the dragonite match ups but DP feels clumsier since Gen2 and the new dragonite move sets hit hard if you get hit. He sits as a trophy or B grade gym defender now.

I recently evolved a 100 IV Charizard with FS/OH. Too bad I will probably never use it. Haha

XXS confusion/psychic Slowqueen (because she's a girl) Been keeping this one maxed level as soon as I level up for a while now. She tears through Vaporeons, and a bunch of other stuff too. Almost has enough CP to be the third gym slot now too!

96 Gyarados with DT/C and my favorite Dragonite killer, 95 Pillowswine with PS/A that I caught as a Swinub then evolved on my trip to Iceland.

Got a perfectly useless SW/IH 100% Aerodactyl.. Was stoaked about the stats, bummed about the terrible moveset. I'd probably trade it in a heartbeat tho

I was excited to answer this question at first, but then realized I don't really have any non-optimal Pokemon I'm crazy about. I've caught a few 100% IVs, but none of them are exciting or useful.

I guess my 93% Confusion/Ice Beam Slowbro would be my favorite. I always keep him (or her, as the case may be) maxed out. I love the dopey look but the not-so-dopey smack-down.

My Arcanines have Bite/Flamethrower, I've found out one of them has terrible HP IV but he's legacy so I'll probably keep him. Also my ZH/FS Espeon is 75% or something, though his HP is just fine.
