It's good against Exeggutor. If you can dodge the charge move (or face psychic), you've got a chance. That being said, an Umbreon may be better, but lower max CP. Would be good against Slowbro/Slowking too, which we may see more in the near future, since a lot of slowpoke candy exist. I don't see Slowbro in gyms now though.
Not the most widespread of uses, but they do exist.
