Shall I teach my Dragonite ThunderBolt or Flamethrower?
And which one is better for my Mewtwo; Thunderbolt or Flamethrower?
 

Savage

P!nk
Flamethrower:

Attack: 95
Accuracy: 100
PP: 15
Effect: 10%

Thunderbolt:

Attack: 95
Accuracy: 100
PP:
15
Effect: 10%

(Dragonite)

Thunder punch, Shock Wave, thunder and thunderbolt are the damaging electrical attacks which Dragonite can lean. Although fire punch, fire blast and flamethrower are the only damaging fire attacks which Dragonite can learn.

(Mewtwo)

Thunder punch, Shock Wave, thunder and thunderbolt are the damaging electrical attacks which Mewtwo can lean. Although fire punch, fire blast and flamethrower are the only damaging fire attacks which Dragonite can learn.

I can't really make a decision for you, I just thought I'd point these out.

If you could tell me/us what types you have on your team already. It may be easier.

But I really do think that this belongs in RMT (rate my team).

Hmm okay. The rest of my team is:
Blastoise, water/ice/dark move(s).
Zapdos, electric/flying moves.
Wobbuffet, regular moveset


Btw, Dragonite has the following moves: Outrage, Twister, Fly
And mewtwo: Psychic, Recover, Swift
And I'm not going to change these moves ;)

u wanna know a way better move on mewtwo? teach your mewtwo calm mind man and you still have swift?? lol take that away for shadowball.

Your mewtwos move set should look like this:

Psychic
Shadowball
Recover
Calm mind

best move set to my knowledge

Why Shadow Ball? It doesn't benefit from Calm Mind. Teach Dragonite Thunderbolt, as there are many Water-Type Pokemon that know Ice Beam. Teach Mewtwo Flamethrower because since it can't knock out a Dark-Type with Psychic, Flamethrower will do the trick and may cause burn, but this doesn't do anything to Flash Fire Houndoom. Flamethrower also helps with Steel-types. Dragonite can learn Earthquake which takes advantage of its high Attack and KO's most Steel-types in a turn or so.

Teach your Dragonite Thunderbolt and your Mewtwo Flamethrower.
If you want movesets:

Dragonite @ Lum Berry
Adamant Nature
-Dragon Dance
-Aerial Ace
-Earthquake
-Brick Break/Iron Tail

Physical Dragonite^

Dragonite @ Lum Berry
Modest Nature
-Flamethrower
-Ice Beam
-Thunderbolt
-Dragon Claw

Special Dragonite^

Physical is better hence Dragonite's higher Attack stat. For Mewtwo:

Mewtwo @ Leftovers
Modest Nature
-Psychic
-Thunderbolt/Ice Beam/Flamethrower
-Calm Mind
-Recover

Where can you teach Mewtwo Calm Mind, then?

Btw, now I'm really confused. A few people says Flamethrower, and a few other Thunderbolt >.<

Calm Mind is TM 04, only available in R/S/E by beating the seventh Gym, Tate and Liza's Gym.

Oh yeah, thanks. For some reason I'm very forgetful today. I've had to correct myself a lot. So thanks for reminding me.

Give Mewtwo thunderbolt and ice beam.

If you have an extra thunderbolt that is good for dragonite. Otherwise flamethrower is fine.

Your Worst Nightmare
Mewtwo best move set (my opinion)

Blizzard
Thunder bolt
Psychic
Recover


Dragonite (my move set... bad one I bet but I dont care)
Outrage/ Dragon claw
Fly/ Aerial ace
Slam
Thunderbolt


so you should give both thunderbolt.... and probably give dragonite flamethrower two... for pesky ice types like sneasal and jynx

What 'bout My Star?
It doesn't matter, they're pretty much the same, how about both?

Well if your opponent has alot of psychic pokemon or one tough one, your mewtwos shadowball would come in handy now wouldnt it? why bring an extra pokemon with shadowball when you can have 2 in one, plus clam mind is for the psychic i never said its for shadowball.......
