I want to know because, I went to the Konikoni City's Pokémon Center, in Pokémon Sun and Moon. I went and talked to the little girl in the Pokémon center and she traded her Poliwhirl for my Zubat. (Also I got the Waterium Z)

well, it depends on if you want to use one of them, and the rest of your team. (also if you need it for the pokedex)
now just in general, politoad if a bit better than poliwrath because of the Drizzle ability. if you have a team that has an advantage in battle with the weather, then go for politoad. if you want an attacker, the go for poliwrath. but again, just in general, politoad is better than poliwrath because of the Drizzle ability
Hope I helped!!!

In my opinion, Politoed is better. Although both of them have balanced stats, Politoed has a MUCH higher special defense than Poliwrath, plus it has less weaknesses (Politoed has two weaknesses, Poliwrath has five). But, the choice is up to you in the end. :)
