I never check IVs unless upon assessment, it says this Pokemon is a wonder! Then I know it is somewhere between 80-100%. ---

I just keep one pokemon of each kind with the highest IV or much higher CP. I hate duplicate so I may transfer a 99% when I have an 100% and may keep 5% if it’s the best. ---

You’re fortunate. I would say that is more of an exception than a rule and that most people don’t find that particular Pokémon in that frequency. V ---

90%, and 14-15 ATK is mandatory. I don’t care much about gym defenders…I just leave some meta defenders with whatever IVs and not so high CP ---

I keep 0% IVs (37), Level 1 (232), and 100% IVs (281). Other than that they wait until the next Evolve Session and then get put into the blender. ---

I power up the 6 best IV of the best meta relevant pokemon of each type. When it comes to what I keep, I keep anything 93% and up, however if it is shiny or legendary, then I keep all shinies, 12 best of each legendary and for all others, I will keep the best even if it is not 93%+. ---

Depends on the type and how bad I need them and how good they are. For CD I evolved a 89% Metagross but in any other case I prefer 91% or higher. For certain gen 1 and gen 2 pokemon that are meta relevant, I prefer 96% or higher. I also don’t power-up anything that doesn’t have 15 attack ---

Depending on circumstances 93 (at least A14) is the lowest Im comfortable with, exceptions are for CD pokemon (also depends how good they will be in practice), I have Ttars and metagross below 80 but they all have A14/15 and a decent level. At the same time I keep my weather boosted army but just never use my resources on them. That being said if I power up something it usually will be 96-100. ---
