>>35008676Golisopod, because Golisopod has a higher base stat, pretty high physical attack stat, high physical defense stat, pretty good move pool and can learn moves to counter Rock-, Flying- and Electric-type Pokemon, while Araquanid can only learn moves to counter Rock- and Flying-type Pokemon. The ability might be meh, but stat-wise, it's exceeds Araquanid in Health, Physical Attack, Physical Defense and Special Attack, lacking in Special Defense and being just a little bit slower than Araquanid.
