CardName: Taken to the Sea Cost: 1U Type: Instant Pow/Tgh: / Rules Text: Exile target creature. That creature's controller creates a 2/2 blue Fish token. Flavour Text: Life began in the ocean, and some feel compelled to return to where life began. Set/Rarity: Ulaqat Uncommon |

This reminds me of Afterlife and somewhat of Mercy Killing.
The token should at least be a 2/2 IMO. MaRo would agree.
Maybe two 1/1s? I don't know how any of these changes would fit with the flavor.
xD I just thought up a card idea inspired by the flavor:
> Back to School
> Instant
> Exile target creature, then its controller creates X 1/1 blue Fish creature tokens, where X is that creature's power (CMC?).
I wasn't sure how blue was doing baleful polymorph spells nowadays. I went off Curse of the Swine. Yeah, 3 is fine with me. Big for a fish, but hey that's why you jank it up with Ringed Seal.
Now a 3/3 fish
Pongify had the problem that it used "destroy" rather than "exile" - thematically an ill fit; the card has been remade as Rapid Hybridization, because the concept is fine though. Maybe a single mana instant is a little bit too good for what you are planning, but adding
to the cost and making it a sorcery? That's a bit much.
Creature types are capitalized: "3/3 blue Fish creature token".
Also something went wrong in the making of that eminder text, like two sentences being mangled into one.
Switched to instant and reduced cmc by 1. Token reduced from 3/3 to 2/2
Hmm, this now looks very similar to Reality Shift. This isn't critique - just an observation.
