Possibly you have to run pip3 rather than pip. Pip probably installs it for Python 2 rather than Python 3 which you are probably using.

Whenever I try using the bot it says

A package necessary for pywikibot is missing.
Please update required module with:

    pip install "setuptools>=20.2"

I ran the pip install "setuptools>=20.2" command and it keeps saying this

 

NB: I have recently run the "pip install -r requirements.txt" too
