Worth powering up my Articuno?

I have a 93% IV 15/15/12 Articuno that has Frost Breath/Icy Wind as a moveset. Is it worthwhile to power it up and possibly use a Charge TM to get a better moveset?

I would wait until gen 4, because Mamoswine or Glaceon can outclass Articuno. And you have chance to get better Articuno during this month anyway.

I personally wouldn't do it unless Articuno is special to you because by the time we have another legendary dragon who's double weak to ice, Mamoswine will be out and it will be by far the best Ice type attacker in the game.

That's a good articuno. Will you get 6 ice types better? I don't think so for a while. At minimum, I'd pineap each special research Articuno and use that candy to power it up. It gets more debatable to me once you start talking about using your rare candies for it.

Make a decision at the end of June, when you will have five Articuno (and more candy).

I maxed one out a long time ago. He is on my gym attacking team. Underrated in my opinion but it will be outclassed in gen4 so u are probably late.

No legendary is unworthy. Still, I suggest you hold your dust and TM's, Articuno is on the lower end of the power scale.

I'm a Valor but I love my powered up Articuno, especially now that every gym has an Alolan Exeggutor and usually a Dragonite or Salamence or all 3. If you accumulate resources quickly, go for it
