It's not too late gamefreak

The game isn't out yet, you can still change araquanid to not be the worst fully evolved gen 7 pokemon. We believe in you, make it happen.

Is its SpD not worth anything?

Its SpD is pretty good, but its movepool is the problem. It gets that new water attack that lowers defense. If it gets Leech Life that could be fun. It doesn't get Sticky Web IIRC, so its utility is further limited. Shame, really. It has an awesome design. Probably gonna be a standard toxic stall thing otherwise.

Literally ledian 2.0.

It may have good sp def, but it's HP sucks. And even if it can wall a special attacker, it has very little to do with those free turns. can't even set up sticky web

Use Lunge you doofus. It's its signature move for a reason.

It can trap in two ways (Infestation is probably dumb but whatever) and then repeatedly Lunge to lower a physical attacker's Attack stat. It would be able to get kills with whatever sources of residual damage you can pile on. It's also just good enough at Mirror Coating to be a nasty thorn for special attackers - they can't OHKO it, and they'll take quite a lot in return despite what you may think from its stats.

Holy shit.

I love the design so I will use it on my playthrough, it might be the only place were it might do something sometimes

I'm pretty sure they will give it as a move tutor move, but it's gonna be a long time until then. Hopefully Follow Me and other mives as well.

>Ledian 2.0
Lol no. Unlike Ledian, Araquanid actually has an attacking stat that it can use as mediocre as it might be. And its typing is actually decent for a defensive mon, unlike Bug/Flying. Plus, its ability makes it (somewhat) Fire resistant and can't get burned either and can pass it down to other via Entrainment. Would be fun on Scizor or Ferrothorn.

It's no way near as bad as Ledian, no pokemon will ever be as bad as it.
