Azumarill Black 2 & White 2 Guide
In Black 2 & White 2, Azumarill can work for a story run. 420 BST is average, but water typing fills a niche depending on your team composition.
In Black 2 & White 2, Huge Power changes the entire equation for Azumarill. The 420 BST doesn't tell the full story. Ranked C-Tier. Waterfall with Choice Band is the standard set.
Huge Power is what you want on Azumarill. Every competitive set worth running is built with that ability in mind. The alternatives (Thick Fat, Sap Sipper) work on paper but Huge Power is what makes Azumarill worth using.
In Black 2 & White 2, Sap Sipper is the hidden ability. It absorbs grass moves, raising Attack one stage. Worth hunting for if you want Azumarill to compete at a higher level.
Game Availability
Available in 17 titles since its debut in Gold & Silver, Azumarill spans 9 generations of Pokemon games. It's accessible through wild encounters in most mainline games.
