It works, the sun dex doesn't say anything about attacking, just says it headbutts and small Pokemon get stuck inside,

Moon dex says it protects small Pokemon by bringing them into it's water bubble.

In other words, it's accidentally killing little Pokemon by over protecting.

But Dewpider's say that it crawls onto land in search of food, although I guess it doesn't specifically say prey....

On a separate note I don't think it's a stretch to propose that Cutiefly are probably Araquanid's main source of food. Spiders are usually depicted eating flies, and Cutiefly is tied for being the smallest pokémon in existence -- one of the few feasibly small enough to drown in the bubble.

I like that pokemon.
I always figured it hunted during the day and rested at night, so it would just leisurely go around helping little pokes out in its spare time. Like a big burly biker gang member riding for charity.

Oh my god that's adorable.

I hope Moon's entry is the more true one. I like the idea of having a giant spider friend that, despite looking terrifying, is actually really nice! Not just a monster. A compassionate spider friend who scares the shit out of people but is harmless.

Yeah Araquanid's a little weird that way.

The actual thing it's based on is a spider that lives underwater by making air bubbles.

But when you send it out in battle of course it's going to be on land, so they reversed the gimmick.

Then, to provide an actual REASON why it needs the bubble, they said it's so it can breath. But no Water pokémon apparently ever had any difficulty breathing on land, so it's a little awkward.

Basically, Araquanid is the only one that's actually adapted to regularly going on land on its own. All other aquatic Pokemon can either breathe air or simply never leave water under normal circumstances.

Would Araquanid lose it's extremities if it went into water?

Like it's joints would just merge with the rest of the water.

It probably just breathes normally and has normal joints under the bubbles.
It might just make the bubbles for terrestrial movement.

This was really disheartening to me.
I was enjoying a lot of the new dex entries for how wild they were but if GF can't even keep their lore straight within ONE dex, why even bother paying attention to it at all? Might as well say i doesn't matter and is just random gibberish by various writers on the team who never even check their notes with each other.
