Fling can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Contest Spectacular combination]], with the user gaining an extra three appeal points if a certain move ({{m|Celebrate}}, {{m|Covet}}, {{m|Happy Hour}}, or {{m|Wish}}) was used in the prior turn.

In [[Generation VIII]], Fling can also be used if the user is holding a [[TR]]. Its power is determined based on the TR's contained move. If it contains a status move or a {{cat|Moves that have variable power|move with variable power}}, it will use 10 as its power, except that the TR for {{m|Stored Power}} uses its default power of 20. This means that the TRs for {{m|Leaf Storm}} and {{m|Overheat}} match the Iron Ball in producing the maximum possible Fling power of 130.
If the user holds a TR, Fling's power is equal to the power of the move the TR contains, unless the move does not list a specific power (i.e. it is a [[status move]] or has {{cat|Moves that have variable power|variable power}} with no default power), in which case it has 10 power. {{TR|71|Leaf Storm}} and {{TR|43|Overheat}} match the Iron Ball in producing the maximum possible Fling power of 130.
