I am now at the level 33 and except Blissey I have not a really good defender with high cp. Until now i have hatched 2 times a Snorlax:
iv 78% L/HB (lvl 23,5)
iv 93% L/EQ (lvl 20)
Would you power up one of these two in my situation? I know that ZH is much better as a defender. Currently I have 116 candies because he is my buddy.
Thank you!

L/EQ

Hyper beam is hilariously easy to dodge.

& Eq isn't? HB at least hits like a truck and is the best attacking move set.

EQ is slightly harder to dodge and is super effective vs Rhydon, a common attacker for Snorlax while Hyper Beam is ineffective.

If it's a L Snorlax people are bringing Machamp onto the second go round and I've never missed a Eq dodge w/ Rhydon. It also seems like less and less people are bringing Rhydon to gyms to face Snorlax. If you're going to say dodge bug HB does more damage in that situation overall during the lifetime it's in the gym.

Neither are incredible defenders imo because L is that awful on defense. If you had to power one up because of all those candies #1 for sure. At least if you choose to it can always be an incredible attacker. Unless Tms are introduced L/Eq really is that awful and isn't something I would spend dust or such precious candies on. Any Dragonite moveset outside of SW/HB might be a better investment than a L/Eq Snorlax as a defender.

I will power up the first one up to 2900- so I have an attacker and a defender. Around 45 candies I will save for a better one.
Thanks for your answers!
