Stats & Training

Its tail bounces like a rubber ball. It flings that tail around to fight opponents bigger than itself.
Its tail is packed full of the nutrients it needs to grow.
Azurill Weakness
Type-wise, Azurill takes extra damage from Poison and Steel. Ghost and Dragon moves do nothing thanks to a full immunity. Thick Fat reduces Fire/Ice damage, further improving the defensive spread.
