Pokémon you always Pinap?

What Pokémon do you always use a Pinap Berry on, other than the usual Dratini, Ralts, Bagon, Beldum.

I always Pinap Machop, Magnemite, Geodude, Rhyhorn just to name a few.

I always Pinap Magikarp out of habit. I don't have an immediate use for the +1.2k candy I have but with each evolution needing 400 that can be easy to deplete.

Same here. Also having 15 Gyarados and ~2800 candy I still pinap almost every Magikarp. Just a habit.

Machop, mostly. Swablu until I get 400 saved up for potential Jirachi tasks. Swinub/Piloswine. Mewtwo. Phanpy often.

A while ago I was pinapping every fire mon because I needed more candy to keep evolving them for research.
Now I pinap Tangela, Chansey, Scyther and if I can't unload my berries at a silver gym, I'll throw pinaps at some gen 4 evolvables, preferably the few where I have less than 1k candy in store.
And if I have way more berries than I can dump at gyms, I pinap Murkrow for fun.

the weekly research mons. though I may not for October.

Tangela. I used to on Machop, but with 800 candy and a boatload of great Machamps I have stopped.

Right now, Rhyhorn, Magnemite, Swinub, Roselia. Also Bagon, Beldum, Ralts. Basically, any meta-relevant pokemon that I don't have over 1000 candy for. Focusing on Gen4 stuff lately, hoping it pays off soon.

If it's lower CP, then Dratini, Larvitar (lower is pretty high here).

Used to pinap Machop and Gastly, but have over 1200 candy, same with Magikarp, but I'm over 2000 for that, so I can evolve 4 and have plenty to power up with (Megagyarados, I'm waiting for you with a perfect level 30 'Karp).

Pinaping Charmander, because on his CD, I evolved every good one I could to get Blast Burn, and left myself without enough candy to power them up. Still making up for that. Didn't make that mistake on Larvitar CD, have 4 SD Ttar, wish I had 2 more, but they would have been even lower IVs.

Tangela, Rhyhorn ,Scyther, Chansey, Snorlax, Trapinch,Electabuzz ,Magmar, Pinsir, Lapras: Unless they potential high lvl or IV and wont have risk to ran away, then throw Ultra+ Razz or GRB for Snorlax , Chansey and Lapras.

Porygon, Geodude,Swablu, Waillmer, Feebas, Yanma all the time

I used to pinap Karps and Houndoor, but have plenty of karps candy and finally evolved and powered up to 35 lvl my 5 lucky Houndooms :D

Grimer is my favorite.

I have two 100% Muk from raids, but no idea what I could use them for.

The only occasion I used my Muk is in a Tangela raid in Cloudy weather, before I acquired my SA Moltres. It served as a Bulky counter at the end of team and shot Gunks of trash hard. The joining of SA Moltres announces its retirement. Yet Grimer is like my signature (not literally, just my favorite), and as a rare encounterable pokemon I'd like to pinap it every chance I had.

Gym defender that walls Machamp basically. It's also a decent poison-type attacker with a lot of bulk.

All low cp starters, rhyhorn, geodude (missed larvitar CD...), bagon, beldum, magikarp, snorlax (have a perfect working to power up), low cp swinub (Mamoswine better not suck), chansey/blissey.

I pinap gastly and geodude a lot. Many times I evolve them and trade them to others in my household.

Raid Bosses first and foremost - assuming I want to power them up. Outside of Raid Bosses, Scyther and Onyx mostly. Any Pokémon that has a 5km Buddy Distance is one I consider for a Pinap. Magikarp is one I Pinap when I've got so many Pinap's that I'm using them in Gyms to get Gym XP and Stardust.

Other than that, I don't Pinap many Pokémon anymore. Most of the Pokémon that spawn near me are Pokémon I've got 300+ candies for (or more), or I've maxxed out 3 or more of them (I've got 4 Level 40 Machamp and 2 Level 40 Hariyama, for instance). So Pinap's are becoming a way to get 20 Stardust, not extra candies.

I'm not pinaping a damn thing until Beldum day. For Larvitar I had 75 and was out the first hour. Furthermore that already had a double candy modifier.

A good friend of mine had over 150, she too was out before the halfway point. Going to go for a surplus of 300 for the 21st.

Good reminder. I have no Metagross now...300+ candies and only recently scored a 93 IV hatch. Hoarding pinaps for beldum CD is a super idea....after Kanto ends because all dratini and chansey get pinaps now.
