The second sentence is the tell. Making two evasive bodies for three mana is unremarkable white-blue tempo, the kind of token instant that fills out a curve without asking anything of the board around it. But the counter clause turns it into a redistribution tool: whatever kinds of counters are sitting on your other creatures (a +1/+1 here, a shield or stun counter there, an oil counter, a flying or lifelink keyword counter) get copied by kind, one instance apiece, onto tokens that can't be blocked. It does not steal or double those counters; it grants a fresh copy of each kind present among your creatures, split however you like across the two Fish. That reads as a rider until you stack it against a counter-heavy build, where the spell suddenly delivers unblockable creatures wearing whatever keyword and stat counters your board has been accumulating. What holds the two halves together is that split personality: run it with no counters on board and it is two evasive one-drops stapled together, run it beside a menagerie of counter sources and each token becomes a moving counter collector, a payoff for a deck that hoards exotic counter types rather than a plain go-wide effect. Its instant typing is doing quiet work too, letting the tokens ambush during an opponent's declared attack or arrive to trade before combat math is settled.
