Aw what the heck, I love this bug.
I'm glad others share me sentiments on Bionicle spider.

And then I knew he was a staple on my team
And it has some cool fanart now.
I liked Araquanid a lot for it being a big/scary/ugly spider that in reality is kindhearted and means no harm, but I guess the Japanese dex entries paint it as caring for Dewpider, not just others in general.
This Pokemon had potential but they decided to make its offensive and speed stats fucking garbage.
I know this line will never get any official merch and that makes me sad.
