Several questions about XT1040



Hi, like two years ago I bought a Moto G XT1040 and it came with CM12. I installed custom ROMs before on my old Xperia X8 and I kind of know a little bit about it.
The thing is I wanted to make a fresh install of any Android 4.4+ ROM to be able to play Pokemon GO. My phone is slower lately, and I don't really know how the internal storage is so small... the phone says it has 5.52GB total space and I only have 1GB free. I don't even have more than 85MB of pictures+videos in my phone, the only "big" apps I downloaded are Facebook Facebook Messenger, Telegram, Chrome, YouTube, ES File Explorer, Candy crush, Gmail and Neko atsume (lol). In total I have around 1,8GB on apps, the rest is like 1.25gb on MISC, is that the space required by the ROM alone or what? I install every app I can on SD, but still I'm missing space, is there any ROM where I can really install my apps on SD and free more space?
I don't currently have a USB cable in case of any "emergency", so I want to take a safe choice... something I can do by downloading the files into my phone and know that everything should be fine at the moment of installation. Sumarizing:
- I have a Moto G XT1040 (I thing it's LTE, supports 4G, not really sure). Rom: CM 12-20150126-NIGHTLY-peregrine (Lollipop 5.0.2). Kernel: 3.4.42-gfaa9160
- I want to do a fresh install 'cause it's slow and I need to free space
- I want to play Pokemon Go with it, so I need a 4.4+ ROM, what are good choices for this phone? I mean, something that can run fast enough
- Would be cool to have a stable version to be safe 'cause I don't have a USB cable right now

Oh and also, I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this phone, 'cause I've only found things for XT1039... on the other Moto G forum (2014 LTE) there were more recent versions, so I'm kinda lost.

Thanks.
