which among these two is a better choice - mewtwo or machamp ??

As we all know that we have to battle blissey and snorlax most of the times during gym battles, which pokemon would you recommend to take down these two pokemon ( while considering that we have limited potions and revives now )-
machamp with dynamic punch or
mewtwo with focus blast ??

Machamp - speed
Mewtwo - potion efficiency

Against Normal-type moves, Machamp all the way, though that’s hard to predict

I would rather used a maxed Machamp to take out a gym then a maxed Mewtwo. Dynamic Punch with two charge bars clears better than Focus Blast. However in non blislax matchups, shadow ball Mewtwo is better for clearing gyms.

Machamp is usually better, but if it's a big 'ol ZH/DG Blissey and someone is for sure Golden Razzing it (meaning multiple fights at full motivation) I would slot in a FB Mewtwo

Alternatively:

I like how you think.

You could use a dozen more if you ask me

Yeah I've got 2 more on the next page I've made the fatal error of transferring a 23xx machamp before, I've only got 14 left.

Machamp is better, Mewtwo is a good secondary fighting pokemon. You don't want to put all your stardust on the same basket.

As others have said, Machamp will deal better damage, while Mewtwo is tankier.
So Machamp if you value time, Mewtwo if you're conserving potions.
Or, you can always do both! 😁

To battle Blissey & Snorlax I like to use a pair of Gengars with Sucker Punch & Focus Blast - cuts through them like a hot knife through butter! (seriously - try it!).

Otherwise, and more to your question, I'd use Machamp with C/DP, or C/CC.
