He was my ace in gen 6 and everyone I knew would ask me why I used him until they had to face him. No one expects that little ant bastard to have as much attack and speed as it did

No chance in hell I'd forget the ants who actually make themselves easier prey for their fire-type predator.

I kinda like that though, an obscure apocalypse ant which would surely destroy the world if not for a predator who has adapted perfectly to killing them leading to them both being confined to a small area.

wishiwashi wasn't even strong in it's school form

It's one of those Pokemon they made purely just to tick a "Pokemon based on animal we haven't done yet" box and then they instantly stopped caring. Zebatrika, Swanna, Heatmor, Pyroar, Zebstrika, Komala, etc are also forgettable for the exact same reason.

The real reason is because it’s available so late in its debut gen. By that point of the game you’re probably not gonna want to swap out one of your Pokémon you’ve trained the whole game for a Pokémon that doesn’t evolve

Biggest disapointment is no evolutions. I think they should have had it so that males turn in to army ants and females turn in to queens. It would make their ant theme make more sense like how with combee has Vespaqueen.
