C/DP and C/CC. How many candies do you have? Both are worth bringing to level 30 after that it depends on player style. C/DP supposedly does the most damage, but I prefer C/CC since I don't have to launch a move 2x vs Blissey.

Which one is a higher level out of 2 & 3? lol both will destroy Blissey just fine... I def don't recommend 1.

2 first then 3 second...

...and I will take one of each too please.
Up to 6 attempts without either moveset so far.

depends on their respective CPs ... Counter-DP is the best moveset, followed by Counter-CC, anything else I wouldn't bother.

But you don't really need more than 2000-ish CP to wreck Tyranitars with Machamp, and that's pretty much his most important role in this meta.

His most important role is as an attacker into Blissey. A WG/HP Golduck can take down Tyranitar.

Depends. The fight super effectiveness means that Machamp is the fastest to complete the job. Provided that the Blissey does not have ZH, machamp wins over tyranitar and dragonite.

With ZH, machamp definitely dies first, but will still take out a considerable chunk of blissey HP.

Prove it? Where are the #s? You have video proof of all 3 w/ the best moves at the same level? I doubt that Machamp w/ 2 SE moves isn't on par w/ 2 Pokemon that don't deal super effective damage into it.

I'd like to add obviously this user is going to power it as a Snorlax and Blissey attacker. Unless you're obviously trolling I don't the point you're trying to make.

Even taking SE damage, I'm pretty sure Machamp will beat Blissey and Snorlax faster than Tyranitar and Dragonite...

Some of the stats are different in this vid, but you can see Machamp does it much much faster than Dragonite even against the best (worst for Machamp) possible Blissey defender moveset (ZH/DG):

Dragonite vs Chancey:

Takes 46 secs

Dragonite vs 2751CP ZH/DG Blissey:
Takes 71 secs

Machamp vs Chancey:

Takes 40 secs

Machamp vs 2751CP ZH/DG Blissey:
Takes 56 secs

15 secs is a pretty significant difference.

The Snorlax battle uses different Snorlaxes, but Machamp beats a weaker one in 33 secs vs a stronger one the Dragonite beat in 47 secs.

In the OP shoes, I'd power up both to a usable level. Maybe keep one lower for prestige purposes (I have a 2000CP Machamp with C/CC) and max the other to level 30.

CC is great since you can dodge still after using it.

deffo's #2

if you're not great at dodging or your phone lags badly, then get him to lvl30 before doing anything with #3
