Which moveset should I swap my 2nd DB/DC Dragonite in?

Hi all,
I have 2 Dragonites with Dragon Breath/Dragon Claw from the early months of the game, one with 96 IV maxed out and the other with 89 IV. I want to swap the moveset of the second one and I was wondering for which moveset should I go:
1. Dragon Breath/Outrage
2. Dragon Tail/Dragon Claw
3. Dragon Breath/Hurricane

Ps. I have no problems of MT

1 or 3 depending on you

if you want him to be even faster attacker go with hurricane if you want a high pump in damage get outrage

i like more dragon breath than dragon tail, that is why i dismiss the 2

If you're set on one of those combinations, DB/Hu makes sense to me because both moves have short cooldowns compared to dragonites other current options. DB/O seems counter intuitive because DB is great for dodging but outrage is not. DT/DC seems like a solid option; I would rather go DB/DC in that case though

If it were me though I would leave both of your current movsets as is; DB+DC is sweet, it will flourish in PvP if when PvP is released dodging is important and I'm sure it will have trading value

I'd say keep dragon claw by any means

Tx for your answer, but evolving another one does not help coz they are legacy movesets

No, no... I understand you want a kooky half legacy combo move. I just don't believe any of the options are in any way superior to the usability OR the possible future trade value of DB/DC.

Keep dragon claw, not even a hard question to me. You're crazy to want to change it imo.

Please don't touch any of them... I'd kill to have a DB/DC one. Just evolve another one and TM him if needed but you've got two perfect generalist attackers IMO.

  1. Keep Dragon Breath/Dragon Claw. Good IVs with the most desired legacy moveset.

Tx guys for all your answers, my completionist mind was probably carrying me to a big mistake!

Yeah don't change it. The best match of moves imo is DB/H but you aren't gaining much. DB/DC is an elite set and I had DB/O....it just didn't feel right. I switched it to DB/H and that was OK but I still prefer my DB/DC. Some part of that is nostalgia I guess

If you had Steel Wing/Dragon Claw or Dragon Breath/Hyper Beam, the TM question would be a lot simpler. But legacy dragon/dragon moveset should not be TM'd lightly.

I say keep DB/DC as it is. No doubt a DB/OR will performed better in terms of dps, the dodgeability & nimbleness of DB/DC can't be underestimated, especially if PVP ever comes out.

Btw, here's a comparison with DB/DC vs DB/OR ( https://youtu.be/AO7F-C_1g0Q ). My DB/OR was TMed from a DB/HB, so it was a very easy decision.
