Don't power up or evolve until you're sitting on 5 figures of stardust, several hundred candies, a few lucky eggs, and are about lvl 20.Originally Posted by RandBlade
There is no point to long term gym control. And gym battles can be won with pokemon much lower on the CP scale cause you can swipe to dodge a lot of attacks.
It is cheaper to power up before evolving, but your evolution might have crap attacks. Catch everything you can, transfer everything but the strongest 2 of each pokemon. Don't evolve unless that CP curve is 90% full or more, cause Murphy's Law states that as soon as you evolve you will find a base pokemon with a fuller CP curve.
When you are ready to evolve, activate a lucky egg and have at it.
