Because you will have eight hundred million other ores , rocks , stones , pieces , parts , bits , bobs , and whatsits . <| sep |> Ok . I ' m also level 33 . I brought an Arcanine up from 1700 cp with that exact move set and it ' s been worth every candy and every bit of dust . It ' s the best Fire type in the whole game by some way . Yes mine had decent IVs but it ' s the ONLY Fire FangFire Blast Arcanine I have at level 33 and almost 1100 egg hatches . If it was 67 % I would have ZERO qualms about doing the exact same thing at the cost of a few extra candies and a bit more dust . I ' m not exactly just scraping by . I dumped 50 k dust into a Hitmonlee the day BEFORE the cp changes made him viable just to see what I could do with him . If I play to level 40 will I find another one ? Most likely . But then what is the opportunity cost of NOT having used the best fire type that whole time ? It ' s been 4 . 5 months . If I play forever I ' ll get 100 % best move sets everything . That doesn ' t mean I ' m going to not ever spend any dust or use any mon just because they ' re not perfect . This is the same mistake you make when playing RPGs and you keep all your jewels for socketed items until they ' re perfect and then you finish the game and beat the final boss never having used your frigging 80 % perfect Ruby of 18 strength for all the levels it would have helped . Don ' t let perfection be the enemy of good . There is a balance . I have Identical 96 % and 100 % Venusaurs . I ' m not crying myself to sleep because I have two . Almost every mon I have right now at level 33 will become redundant at some point except the 34 perfects that have the right moveset . I ' m not a cat lady hoarding up my newspapers so I die with rooms filled to the ceiling with stuff I ' ve never used . I ' m utilitarian . PS , i ' m going to double evolve a 73 % Squirtle later today because it ' s level 27 .
