==Biology== | ==Biology== | ||
Kingler is a crustacean Pokémon resembling a crab. Its strong shell covers the outside of its body, featuring a red upper half and a light tan lower half. Its upper half is topped with six tall, thin spikes that resemble a crown. Its light tan arms are also connected to its upper body. Its lower half doubles as its jaw with six fangs overlapping its upper body. Its two outer fangs are much larger than the inner four and are roughly half as tall as Kingler's entire body. Its hips visibly protrude from its lower body and connect to its four long, thin legs. Each leg has a single, claw-like foot. Kingler's main feature is its red pincers. Its left claw is roughly twice as large as the other and hard as steel. | Kingler is a crustacean Pokémon resembling a crab.

Kingler is often found on the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|edges of water}}, usually the ocean. | Kingler is often found on the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|edges of water}}, usually the ocean. Its powerful claws have 10,000 horsepower and are capable of prying open the shells of {{p|Shellder}} and {{p|Cloyster}}. While Kingler's large, left claw is its main tool for offensive maneuvers, it is so large and heavy that Kingler can barely lift it. It causes balancing problems and Kingler may quickly become fatigued from continuous use. However, it has been shown to communicate with other Kingler by waving its pincers around. In the past, {{m|Crabhammer}} was its [[signature move]]. | ||
As Gigantamax Kingler, it has gained a larger, spikier appearance. The red half has become dark orange, while the light tan half is darkened. Three red clouds float around the crown spikes on head, The white sclera of eye becomes bright red. It now has foaming bubbles in the shape of a long beard. The right pincer of Kingler has become much larger as a result of Gigantamaxing. The inside of both pincers are colored white and orange. There is white armor striped thing inside pincers. The arms and legs both have several spikes. The claw-like foot changed to dark orange and is straight. | |||
The left pincer of Gigantamax Kingler can destroy anything it hits. The bubbles it releases are strongly alkaline. Should any opponent be struck by the bubbles, their bodies will quickly melt away. | |||
Gigantamax Kingler is the only known Pokémon capable of using the exclusive [[G-Max Move]] {{m|G-Max Foam Burst}}. | |||

Kingler (Japanese: キングラー Kingler) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
It evolves from Krabby starting at level 28.
Kingler has a Gigantamax form.
Biology
Kingler is a crustacean Pokémon resembling a crab. Its strong shell covers the outside of its body, featuring a red upper half and a light tan lower half. Its upper half is topped with six tall, thin spikes that resemble a crown. Its light tan arms are also connected to its upper body. Its lower half doubles as its jaw with six fangs overlapping its upper body. Its two outer fangs are much larger than the inner four and are roughly half as tall as Kingler's entire body. Its hips visibly protrude from its lower body and connect to its four long, thin legs. Each leg has a single, claw-like foot. Kingler's main feature is its red pincers. Its left claw is roughly twice as large as the other and hard as steel.
Kingler is often found on the edges of water, usually the ocean. Its powerful claws have 10,000 horsepower and are capable of prying open the shells of Shellder and Cloyster. While Kingler's large, left claw is its main tool for offensive maneuvers, it is so large and heavy that Kingler can barely lift it. It causes balancing problems and Kingler may quickly become fatigued from continuous use. However, it has been shown to communicate with other Kingler by waving its pincers around. In the past, Crabhammer was its signature move.
As Gigantamax Kingler, it has gained a larger, spikier appearance. The red half has become dark orange, while the light tan half is darkened. Three red clouds float around the crown spikes on head, The white sclera of eye becomes bright red. It now has foaming bubbles in the shape of a long beard. The right pincer of Kingler has become much larger as a result of Gigantamaxing. The inside of both pincers are colored white and orange. There is white armor striped thing inside pincers. The arms and legs both have several spikes. The claw-like foot changed to dark orange and is straight.
The left pincer of Gigantamax Kingler can destroy anything it hits. The bubbles it releases are strongly alkaline. Should any opponent be struck by the bubbles, their bodies will quickly melt away.
Gigantamax Kingler is the only known Pokémon capable of using the exclusive G-Max Move G-Max Foam Burst.

Origin
Kingler appears to be very similar to a fiddler crab or a terrestrial crab of the genus Cardisoma, which usually have one claw larger than the other. It may also draw inspiration from pliers and hammers. Conceptually, its crown of spikes and its name may allude to king crab.
Its Gigantamax form may be based on Japanese spider crabs with a bubble beard, that may be a reference to the fact that crabs blow bubbles to keep oxygen flowing to the gills when they are out of the water. It may also be a reference to a bearded king.
Name origin
Kingler may be a combination of king and fiddler, both of which are species of crab. It may also be a combination of "king" and "angler".
