Questions people ask

Is Klinklang good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Klinklang has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Klinklang?
Klinklang has no job in PvP, raids, or Max Battles. Keep one for the Pokedex, and transfer the rest for candy.
Is Klinklang a good raid attacker?
Klinklang ranks #108 of 182 steel attackers with 8.9 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Klinklang be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Klinklang is available from evolution, photobomb, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
