One or the other, I would definitely go with a nice enchi...I just don't particularly care much for the fire gene or combos of it. Plus, as mentioned, there is so much more potential as to what can be done with the super form of enchi, being that there is both pattern and color.
That being said, the most important thing is to be very selective with whichever you choose, as you can really screw up a project with an ugly example of either.
