What a shame, we really do need a viable bulky sticky web setter and this guy could have been it.

I mean kind of?
Something about Araquanid just doesn't work, though.
I mean, when its only reliable recovery is Leech Life, its tough to justify bringing it into a team.

Ah yeah Totem was solid but not as a Sticky Web setter. That was a cheese tactic abusing how insane the Weight of Totem Araquanid was.

I think araquanid's problem is you don't want it to set webs. It has stab, plus ability giving it extra stab on water, then put him on the rain and suddenly moves are at x2.5 without stat boosts.

i mean, webs are a full-on hyper-offense archetype. if you're sitting around recovering, you're not playing webs right.

Yeah absolutely. Its also EXTREMELY slow, literally near the bottom, and its not even a "Good in trick room" kind of mon either.

Definitely agree its decent, just not the kind of bulky bugmon I want for my adorable Shedinja-fuelled bug power team.

Fair. But potentially opening up Webs to different, more bulky offensive archetypes wouldn't be a bad thing, which is what I want.

Volcarona, meanwhile, literally cannot stop being considered "too powerful" when it's allowed to gain traction by spending ONE (1) turn preparing Quiver Dance.
The "BUG IS SUPPOSED TO BE SHIT!" argument stopped applying a very long time ago when they continue to support and create standout species like that.

Spidops consistently pulls its weight all the way through the game, it is not bad at all for ingame purposes.
Really lacking for PVP though.

I had one of these on a draft league team and yes, hazards is the only thing it really has going for it, that and First Impression. If they switch out to bring in their hazard remover, STAB First Impression with Stakeout can do a decent chunk of damage, but it's only really worthwhile if sticky webs is your win condition for speed control.
