Is Azumarill Good in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Playthrough?

Water/Fairy with AbilityHuge Power makes Azumarill's doubled Attack hit like a freight train. Fairy shuts down the Dragon trial, Water handles Olivia and Hapu, and Fighting coverage via the move tutors rounds it out. Handles Hau's Title Defense team and contributes against every Kahuna. One of the best Pokemon you can field, period.

Azumarill Weakness

Azumarill is weak to Electric, Grass, and Poison. On the flip side, it's immune to Dragon-type moves entirely. With 6 resistances, the defensive profile is strong. Thick Fat reduces Fire/Ice damage, further improving the defensive spread. With 100 HP and balanced defenses, Azumarill can afford to eat a neutral hit or two.

Azumarill Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Guide

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Azumarill's biggest threats include Jolteon (Electric), Exeggutor (Grass), and Gengar (Poison), all carrying super-effective STAB moves.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Azumarill can work for a story run. 420 BST is average, but Water/Fairy typing fills a niche depending on your team composition.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Huge Power changes the entire equation for Azumarill. The 420 BST doesn't tell the full story. Ranked C-Tier. Aqua Jet with Normaliumz 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 Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, 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.
