Should I power up my Dragonite?

Hi, I've recently evolved my Dratini all the way to Dragonite. I'm lvl 30 currently.

my Dragonite is 2017CP , 86.7%IV (15-9-15) atk-def-sta
moveset (Steel Wing-Dragon Pulse)
my question is pretty straightforward , should I power it up or not ? Obviously it has the best defensive moveset so I'll be using it for defensive purposes.I want it to be on top of gyms . What would you do?
I want to get your idea before doing anything else.
note: Currently I have 52 dratini candies...

I love my defense dragonite, dragon pulse hits very hard. I'd say bring that one to 3000 and start saving for your next one.

High IV dratinis are getting harder to find. Depends on your patience threshold. You do have a pretty good IV and ideal move set so it's a tough call. Also depends on how rare dratinis are in your area. I evolved my first Dragonite when I had over 400 dratini candies. I was patient but also had easy access to spawn spots. Good luck on whichever decision you make!

Nice defensive moveset - I'd power up to 3000ish. My first Dragonite had DB/HB - fine as an attacker as is but a mediocre defender so I'm not powering up beyond 2200 ish unless I get a lot of spare candy (unlikely).
