Hi everyone, I am new to the forums and relatively new to Pokemon Go. I have been playing a lot so I'm pretty quickly up to Level 20, but I'm a bit confused and hesitant about the best strategy for powering up and evolving my best Pokemon.
When you're trying to select the best Pokemon to evolve and power up, is it ALL about the iv, or would you EVER pick a Pokemon with lower iv but higher CP?
For example, I am ready to evolve an Eevee, and I have one that has 389CP but looks to be 84%, with another one that is 533CP that looks to be 50%.
Another example, I have a Staryu with HP 120 and 84% iv, and another Staryu with 409CP and 64%. Am I correct that the 120CP Staryu is the one to stick with, even with his low CP?
I know that Staryu isn't the most glamorous Pokemon but I'm using this as an example because it is pretty extreme.
Thanks!
