If you want a gym defender then the 1749 CP is your mon, if you want an attacker .... he's probably your guy too If you powered your 94% guy up to match, it would only be 2% more powerful but with a worse moveset......meaning even with the 2% advatage in a 1 to 1 battle it would probably lose. Given the abundance of Magi's why not power up both of them. Gyarydos is on of the few mons I actually spend stardust on powering up. *** If you want to get deep into game theory (tin foil hats at the ready) then there is an arguement that an attacker needs to only dodge 1 hydropump attack per battle, diminishing it's power greatly. Meaning that on paper hydropump is the better secondary but in reality twister is better becuse Gyary uses it so often and as it is not a massive attack, attacker tend not to dodge it as readily meaning it does more damage overall. In theory ***

What I was trying to communicate was for the time and effort it takes to evolve all the starters, the reward should match but it does not. At this rate I'll be into double figures of Gyarydos and Slowbro's (one day I may even get a second bloody Vaporeon) before I get a Charizard. But when I do get the Charizard, any of the group mentioned previously would wipe the floor with it. I just think the mechanics for the starters are a little screwed. They should be more powerful and sought after than Snorlax but they are not, they've become a tick the pokedex box exercise, at least for me. I think that's a bad thing.

But if you look at how often it recharges it appears to me you can use it 5 times in the same amount of time it takes to recharge say hydro pump on my vaporeon. So that's a potential 125 damage in same recharge rate as 1 hydro pump at 90. Now I'm not all the well up on that side of the game as I'm more about catching them but is that right??
