Mud Shot or Mud Bomb for Quagsire?

I don’t know which move I should teach. Mud Shot has less power but more accuracy, and Mud Bomb has more power but less accuracy (or did this change in the recent Generations?). Which should I pick?

Or should I go for neither and just teach Muddy Water?

honestly: none of them

quagsire’s attack is far superior to its sp.atk. mud bomb is a special move, has shabby accuracy and low base power. earthquake has 100% accuracy, 100% base power and makes use of quag’s attack. if you were to choose one of them, use mud bomb but seriously: teach it earthquake. no chance of reducing opponents accuracy drop, but everything else makes up for that. here is a good move set to build around it:

quagsire @ leftoverstrait:unawareimpishnatureEVs: 252 hp/ 252 def/ 4 sp.defmoveset:- earthquake- waterfall- recover- stockpile/ curse (prefer stockpile to stall, but its opinion based

this set is mainly made to stop set up sweepers with its nice ability: unaware. use stockpile a couple of times and recovery when needed. as I said: physically quag is much better that special, but I can give you sp. set too if you really want to use mud bomb:

quagsire @ leftoverstrait:unawareboldnatureEVs: 252 hp/ 252 def/ 4 sp.defmoveset:- scald- mud bomb- toxic- recover

I would pick Mud Bomb as it has more power.

Mud Bombdeals damage and has a 30% chance of lowering the target’s Accuracy by one stage which makes it very powerful.

Hope I helped!!
