Donphan
I finally evolved my first Donphan and I got Counter + Play Rough, the best defensive moveset. She's at level 20 with 89% IV - and I need more defenders atm. Should I consider powering her up?

Sorry to ask this in your topic. I have a 93% IV Donphan with tackle + play rough. Has anyone experience with it?
Regarding your case. I would definetely power it up because I like diversity and I have a sufficient amount of high CP defenders. If this is not your case yet, consider investing your dust in something else.
I've only seen a couple in gyms and most were placed as trophies right after gen 2 release (my area is super competitive though). I always went in with an Exegutor for safety and keeping in mind I could use him effectively elsewhere on Blissey or Snorlax, Vape etc. He isn't a bad defender but nothing special either regardless of moveset. The only real question about investment is whether his placement will cost you coins versus other mons. If not then go for it.
