Zapdos or Lugia?
Hey guys, I got 98%IV Zapdos and 100%IV Lugia and really want to power one of those bad boys up.
Who do you think I should opt for? Or maybe neither?
Zapdos is really cool and I don;t have a strong electric type but its moves though ;/
Lugia on the other hand is obviously a trophy because of perfect IVs but most say that it's not very useful; althought I got the feeling that it's gonna be a really strong asset once PvP comes out, it's gonna be freakin hard to take down.
Your help would be appreciated!

If you are located in North America, I think you should wait for Raikou. He is going to be a monster. I have a Zapdos powered up and I kind of regret it. The fast move really hurts him imo. Lugia is a bulky tank but you can't put him in gyms, so kinda useless. That being said it is a 100% so it may be worth powering up as a legendary trophy.
Once Lugia leaves, I'll power up my 93% one and take it to Level 30...
Zapdos is slightly worst than Raikou due to moves and typing (more weaknesses) and having a tank to not have to rejoin is worth a lot more in my book (Lugia that is...)...Lugia has lower DPS, but the birds are not THAT different from say, general Eevolutions to make much difference in actual battles...Lugia can survive 3 or 4 Mewtwo Focus Blasts and can survive 15 of them if you dodge...
I'd rather go with 4 or 5 high DPS mons and survive with 1 or 2 mons to maximize damage balls, esp if everyone has to rejoin the battle...
