Stats & Training
HP and Defense carry most of Azurill's stat budget. Attack's the obvious dump stat. Common in the wild and yields 1 HP EV. Follows a fast 800K XP curve.
Its tail bounces like a rubber ball. It flings that tail around to fight opponents bigger than itself.
Azurill Weakness
Type-wise, Azurill takes extra damage from Fighting. Ghost moves do nothing thanks to a full immunity. Thick Fat reduces Fire/Ice damage, further improving the defensive spread.
| Damage | Types |
|---|---|
| 2x (Weak) | Fighting |
| 0x (Immune) | Ghost |
- Fairy type does not exist — Dragon has fewer checks
- Physical / Special split now per-move (introduced Gen IV)
