One is a sub-par sweeper, and the other is a D-Dancer. There both not going to last long in battle, but it’s your call.

Personally, I would go with Crawdaunt because he gets the Adaptability boost on Water and Dark moves.

Stat Wise I would say Crawdaunt because he has a pretty good Attack but bad Def and Sp.Def which is the same for Basculin except that Basculin has bad Attack.Here is a moveset:

Crawdaunt @ Life OrbNature: AdamantAbility: AdaptabilityEVs: 252 Defense 252 Special Defense and 6 AttackMOVESET:Crunch: STAB + Good power and may lower foe’s defenseCrabHammer: STAB + Good power + why have a crab without using its claws as hammers?!Waterfall: if ingame i would suggest it + STABX-Scissor: Decent power+ covers grass weakness

HOPE THIS HELPED!
