Stats & Training
Marill's spread isn't flashy. HP leads, Attack trails, 0 stats clear the bar. Common in the wild and worth 2 HP EVs, on a fast 800K XP curve.
The fur on its body naturally repels water. It can stay dry even when it plays in the water.
The oil-filled tail functions as a buoy, so it’s fine even in rivers with strong currents.
Marill Weakness
Marill's Water/Fairy typing leaves it vulnerable to Electric, Grass, and Poison. It shrugs off Dragon-type attacks completely. 6 resistances give it solid defensive coverage on top of that. Thick Fat reduces Fire/Ice damage, further improving the defensive spread.

Breadth over depth defines this movepool. Marill won't stack one type's damage ceiling, but coverage across 10 types means it always has an effective option. Hydro Pump and Aqua Tail anchor the STAB core.
