I'm trying to figure out the moveset for my Heracross in Crystal. Since the level-up moveset for it is limited, I wanted to use Strength or Take Down and I wanted to ask which is better, thanks.

Strength is more consistent, while Take Down is more powerful, less accurate, and kills your Heracross faster.
Why don't you use return?

Strength is a better move as it does not make you take recoil damage and its necessary to have strength due to the amount of boulders there is to move around in the game and takedown has a 15% chance of missing and thanks to its insanely high attack stat strength will hit extremely hard anyways without recoil or the chance it will miss. Hopefully, this helps :)
