Uses for Kingler?
I have been trying to find good uses for my Kinglers, anyone have a good use for them? Or should I just auto transfer them?

Mud shot does okay against rare gym electrics/fires, but basically I'd just throw him against anything when prestging multiple pokes at a friendly gym - if he takes something down - great, if he doesn't you haven't wasted potion/revives.
If I've got five minutes I'll just throw disposable pokes at any friendly gym and not worry too much what they're fighting -you get the same candy on a fainted poke, a few xp and normally prestige it a bit even if it's not optimal.
A gym punching bag.
I like tossing him in friendly gyms that I know have massive turnover which I know I'll never keep (like in high traffic areas).
When he gets sent back, transfer him.
The advantage of using him over a low CP Mon is it actually makes it possible for friendly players to train the gym and toss in their own defenders, while also making it harder on other teams. Putting in a 600 CP Mon when the next one is 2000 makes training really annoying. All it does is screw over your own team and make it easier on everyone else
So be kind to your teammates, and put Kingler in there instead :)
The only good thing Kingler has going for it is it's high CP. it's good for gym placement
Throw it inside a level 8-9 Gym, as long as it's not the bottom Pokémon. 4th or 5th spot is good for any Kingler just look at your friendly gym's CP range
Never invest stardust in a Kingler, it's not good in attacking or defending but does have one of the highest CPs so evolve them at a high level, regardless of IVs and put it in a high level gym.
