      Even if you don't want to actually use it on the team it still has insane value as an HM Slave/Pickup abuser and you can even save it for soloing thr E4 at the end if you have empty slots. And since you can get it on quite a few routes it's almost Magikarp levels of free

      I found it pretty good in the gen 3 remakes. and i'd say it became reasonably ok if trained in gen 5. The main reason I say Masqurain is really viable in hoenn remake is because of the pokefinder, in the route Surskit is available it has a distinct shaking bush animation. water type makes it a high risk high reward for the first gym, bubble beam will carry it for awhile, struggle bug is available in slateport, it'll eventually gain scald, and the only fire type team magma have has a x4 weakness to water and is slower than the flying mask.

    Putting dustox in F teir is crazy. It gets moonlight, which makes it better for no item Nuzlockes. It's typing also allows it to easily destroy your rivals sceptile whenever you fight it, making swampert even crazier. It destroys normal pretty easily with protect, and it has great utility until Flannery. After that is kinda falls off, but It still is usable against random trainers.

      It has a few problems. Starting with no attacks is one of them. And two it’s EXPENSIVE to make good. It has next to no movepool outside of tms so you have to spend a lot of money to buy the game corner tms in the gen 3 games.Without that it’s basically stuck with just psychic stab which makes it actually kinda bad in gen 3. It’s excellence in gen 6 is counteracted by being a terrible nuzlocke pokemon gen 3. It’s just a high investment Pokémon with less reward then say slaking another high investment Pokémon.

    Personally I say slacking for gen 3 specific is S even with its ability hyper beam is physical and the recharge won’t matter since the ability makes it so you wouldn’t have a next turn anyway and it can set up and at plus 1 it one shots pretty much everything you come across in gen 3 and it’s enough of a tank to get 2-3 full on attacks which is 4-6 rounds before it’ll need healing until you get to champion and even then you can just heal and be good you’ll still one shot almost all of them with hyper beam or even strength at plus 1

If it needs coverage Ancientpower is okay. It's not a sweeper by any means, but anything that can't hit it super-effectively and isn't immune to the Toxic/Leech Seed combo is going to have a bad time.

Good STAB with volt switch and thunderbolt, nasty plot to tackle Wallace and the E4, and ok coverage with grass knot. Trump Card can be a good one-use move in niche circumstances like with certainly bulky mons. I’m mega biased cause I love Kraftwerk and protect him with my soul but I still think the cheerleader duo have their uses.

However Pinsir gets swords dance about the time that Heracross gets close combat and they are the same attack stat as well, and Pinsir does get brick break and x scissor before Heracross gets any bug moves.
    In fact both of them are basically fighting type until Pinsir gets X-Scissor at 30, although Heracross does get Aerial Ace at 13. Heracross only gets 1 bug move though and it is at 55 with megahorn.

If you've ever played the Gen 3 games using Swampert you'll know. You can comfortably Surf Archie's Camerupt while well underleveled, while torkoal and magcargo put up more of a fight. It's not "It dies to it's weakness" cause in that case Gyarados would be trash cause it gets hard countered by any fast, accurate electric type.
