===Physiology===
Kingler's 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 on the top of its head, resembling the top of a crown. Its lower half doubles as its jaw, with six fangs overlapping its upper body. Its two outer fangs are much larger than the inner two, and are roughly half as tall as Kingler's entire body. Its hips are visibly protruding from its lower body connecting its long, thin legs with claw like feet. Kingler's main feature is its red claws. Kingler's left-hand claw is roughly twice as large as the other and hard as steel.
Kingler is a crab-like Pokémon with {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with an insectoid body|four legs, two arms}}, and two powerful pincers. The upper half of its body and its pincers are orange, while the bottom half and legs are cream colored. Kingler has spikes on its head, and has a large lower jaw with teeth-like bumps. Its left pincer is particularly larger than its right pincer.


====Gender differences====
Kingler is often found on the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|edges of water}}, usually the ocean. It has been observed using its powerful claws to pry open the shells of {{p|Shellder}} and {{p|Cloyster}}. While Kingler's large, left-hand claw is it 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.
None.
 
===Special abilities===
Kingler's left pincer boasts 10,000 horsepower of crushing force, but its massive weight makes it difficult for Kingler to aim.
 
Since Kingler are fully evolved Pokémon, they are capable of using {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

They wave their huge claw in the air to communicate with others. However, because the claw is so heavy, the Pokémon quickly tires.
