Why do they keep giving Ariados signature moves, but they refuse to give it stats higher than a mid-stage evolution?
They even buffed its stats in Gen 7, but only give it 10 SpD. Why?

Same reason they buffed Masquirin. Just to help improve the Guzma fights.

Because it's an early route bug. It's not meant to be particularly powerful. Same reason they went overboard on the Talonflame nerf.

It's not even a good early route bug, though. It evolves at level 22 and has less BST than a mid-stage start evolution.
Also, "issues" like this are why GF needs to implement exponential stat gains.

Knowing how they'll always changing moves between gens (e.g. Fell Stinger), I'm sure Gen VIII will give Toxic Thread, toxic poison

Toxic Thread makes sense for Cascoon and Poipole. I doubt it will stay signature for long.

This infuriates me so much. They put it that late in his level up moveset only for it to be shit.
