Yeah... dewpider is no doubt a better option. But unlike corphish, i don't want it to remain unevolved throughout the series.

Spider Fighting is a thing in Japan so Dewpider could happen and it would allow Ash to use the Water Z move right off the back.
That said, I think Wimpod is just a much better choice because the writers could do much more with it as a character while potentially giving Ash some interesting interactions with Guzma.

I choose scenario #2.

No Ash would have the Shiny Golisopod. Shiny Wimpod looks like Ash's hat (the BW version anyways). I can just imagine it clinging to his head.

Ash will probably get Crabrawler which has Water type moves and will evolve into an Ice type too so will have triple type advantage of Fighting, Water and Ice in it's arsenal which can only be a good thing.
Really? For me it's the exact opposite.
Crabrawler seems to have a lively personality judging by its descriptions and with Ash's history of having Pokemon like Corphish, it would be a perfect fit.
Dewpider on the other hand seems...completely uninteresting.
I just don't think it fits Ash. It doesn't have enough personality for me.
If Ash should get Water/Bug, I'd rather he got Wimpod/Golisopod. He hasn't had that type of Pokemon either.

I don't see Ash with either. None of them are Ash material, and he has enough crabs. Crabrawler will never be as cool as Corphish is.

Wimpod/Golisopod is the ace of Guzma the Skull Boss...which Ash doesnt really get pokemon that the evil boss owns.
But Dewpider/Araquanid is the best chance for Ash for a Water-type as the others are not good on land due to being fish or owned by Lana so far.
Ash goes for primarily speedy pokemon which Dewpider/Araquanid clearly are or as others have said...Ash could just skip the Water-type this region.

I'm with this choice. None of the Water-type Pokemon here seem to fit as a member of Ash or are already owned by another trainer. If Ash didn't capture any Grass-type Pokemon in Kalos, then perhaps he won't capture a Water-type Pokemon in Alola.

What do you mean it "doesn't have enough personality" it hasn't even shown up in the anime yet, and we can see in Pokemon Refresh that it is expressive
As for Wimpod or Golispod maybe, I'm more in favor of Dewpider/Araquanid because the Wimpod line has that weirdl ability I'm not sure how it would work on Ash's team. I guess they could just have it get tired after battling for a while or something; but I'd rather it show up with Guzma since its his signature Pokemon.

I said this months ago but if Ash has to have a water type and none of the new ones suite him, just bring back the frog and call it a day

And again I ask: what is an "Ash" Pokenon anyway? What does suit Ash? I bet I'd get different answers from all of you because there are no tangible qualities that make a Pokemon "suit" Ash. So saying Ash won't get Dewpider because it doesn't suit him doesn't fly.
And I do think a lot of people just say that because they don't like a specific Pokemon and don't want Ash to catch it.
That said, I agree that Dewpider itself is rather uninteresting, but given its conflicting Pokedex entries, Araquanid could be a different. At the very least, it being this very caring Pokemon that tries to protect weaker Pokemon but instead harms said weaker Pokemon could lead to some comical situations, and that could be something Ash could work with.
Also, Araquanid has a base speed stat of 42. It is not speedy.

Foregone conclusion that Ash will have the Pikachu, Rowlet, Rockruff and Litten lines. If he does something likely by getting a Water type its likely to be Dewpider. Question remains on who Pokemon number six will be

Simple. A pokemon Ash takes interests in and catches.
If you want a serious answer, then we would need to look at the personality of the pokemon in question for it to be considered an Ash pokemon.

But all of Ash's Pokemon have had divisive and different personalities. It's hard to pin down a specific personality that suites Ash

Ash's Pokemon have a wide array of personalities and some even have no personality at all(tauros). It's really a weak point to make.
