Even though I haven't played in a month, I'm pretty sure that wolves and crabs are still the best for a min/maxer or someone who wants to be good at PvP.
PS, pre-MOVEMENT speed normalization pretty much every pet was special, then most were taken away. After attack speed normalization, there were still a few, like King Bangalesh (wtf was his real name?) cuz he had Cobra Strikes (also don't remember if it was called that, and he ACTUALLY had it at the start of BC and for a bit) when no other pet did.
Like, Lupos was sweet, there was one with some other damage type too, I'm positive. The ZF snake was rare for what it was, takk the leaper was cool cuz he was a mother@#%^ing dinosaur AND he was fast, and things like AV wolves, the timberwolves, BT and the ZG bat were all special.
Though, when the ZG bat was released, everyone got it because there was no point in getting anything else.
Spirit Wolves are the equivalent now I guess (to the ZF snake dude).
@#%^ I don't have any idea what I'm talking about so sorry about the terrible grammar, formatting, and rambling
