Just anotjer Dragonite Question
I am level 33 and recently managed to evolve my first two dragonites. Both of them hatched from eggs and thus are lvl 20 (ivs s/a/d):
10/14/13 82% 2003 CP
10/13/14 82% 2002 CP
Unfortunately both of them got Steel wing/Hurricane. I have 96 candies left and ~300k dust. is one of them worth to power up? It would take me quite a while to get the candy for another dratini to evole and to power it up afterwards.
I'd appreciate any thoughts.

Agree with you, I can't believe there's actually a player who prefers SW to DB dragonites LOL. I know DB nites are terrible at defending, but at attacking, it is super good. Good dps with spammable cooldwon, thus dodging-friendly, and STAB. But if he was talking about defender dragonites, then I have to agree that SW>DB. In any case, DT is a lot better than SW in both attacking and defending.
I'm dealing with something similar, just worse. Just evolved my very first Dragonite and got the dreaded Steel Wing/Hyper Beam (worse than Steel Wing/Hurricane). Dratini candy are NOT easy to come by here. I am very mcuh wondering if I should just work on powering up the one I got or I should start all over. Leaning towards powering this one up. It is still a Dragonite. It will still get high cp that can place above Blissey. And who knows, TM's could be coming.
If you power up one of yours, you have a useful Dragonite NOW. If you start working on a new one, it will take ages and for all we know it will have Steel Wing/Hyper Beam.
I am very tempted to power up the first one. Since with my Dnite luck my next one will certainly be Sw/Hb and, as you said, it will take ages to aquire the required candy. Just for gym placement I've got several high cp gyarados and a 96% iv Ms/Eq Rhydon. Would it still be better/harder to defeat than those?
