Azurill (Japanese: ルリリ Ruriri) is a Normal-type Pokémon. It evolves into Marill.

Contents

Biology

Physiology

Azurill's ball tail appears to be the biggest of its evolution family. It is large and bouncy and packed full of the nutrients this Pokémon needs to grow. Azurill can be seen bouncing and playing on its big, rubbery tail. The tail is a flotation device in water. It is the only one of its evolutions with white to the side of its cheeks and not under its chest.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Azurill spins its tail as if it were a lasso, then hurls it far. The momentum of the throw sends its body flying, too. Using this unique action, one of these Pokémon managed to hurl itself a record 33 feet.

Behavior

On sunny days they gather at the edge of water and splash about for fun. Azurill will spin its tail as if it were a lasso, then hurl it far. The momentum of the throw sends its body flying, too.

Azurill first appeared in Pikachu's PikaBoo as one of the Pokémon that played Hide 'n' Seek with Pikachu.

May made an attempt at capturing the Polka Dot Pokémon in A Ruin with a View. She failed and her Torchic got sprayed into submission by the Azurill's evolved forms.

An Azurill was used in the Izabe Island Pokémon Contest in A Cacturne for the Worse. Harley's Cacturne defeated the Polka Dot Pokémon in the second half of the contest.

Misty was seen with an Azurill in The Scheme Team.

An Azurill also appeared in The Rise of Darkrai, along with a Marill and an Azumarill.

Trivia

  • Azurill is, by statistical average, the second-weakest Pokémon in the games, second to Sunkern.
  • Azurill and Wynaut are the first two Pokémon that can only be bred if the parent holds a certain item.
  • Azurill is the only Pokémon whose type changes completely upon evolution, excluding Eevee.
  • Azurill is also the first and currently only Pokémon whose gender ratio (75% ♀ / 25% ♂) is different than that of its evolved form (50% ♀ / 50% ♂). This causes 1 in 3 female Azurill to evolve into male Marill. It is unknown if this is a programming error, or a reference to real-world animals that can change gender.
  • Azurill is the only Normal-type that can evolve into a pure Water-type without the use of a Water Stone.
  • Azurill is often incorrectly attributed the Water-type.

Origin

It appears to be a mouse combined with a beach ball.

Name origin

Azurill's name is a combination of azure, referring to its color, and rill. Its Japanese name seems to be a corruption of 瑠璃 ruri, lapis lazuli, which is probably in its evolution's, Marill's, name.
