Playdoh
Dude
Well, I'm back. If the Naetle evolution is Aobosu or whatever he's called, I'll take a flaming butt monkey. 0_o

Well, we have Azumarill. He has decent HP, Defense, and Special Defense.
He's an amazing Special Tank!!! Not really. He's definetly not a Special
Sweeper: his moveset dosen't support it, and his special attack is HORRIBLE.
Special Tanking isn't too great: a regular Tank is better for all-around usage. Luckily, Azumarill can make very nice Subs. I almost enever use him, but as a SubPuncher he could be okay. Use a Focus Punch/ Substitue/ Surf/Sing. Sing is useful when facing other powerful defensive pokemon, putting them to sleep, then using a barrage attack technique: use STABs over and OVER!I call this strategy Barrage Singer THe only STAB here is Surf, but thats okay, if you are facing a Grass or Electric, a Focus Punch would be nice.

Should I use it? I wouldn't. Breloom seems to be a much better POkemon that can fill these shoes. You need a Special Sweeper? Be smart and use Kyogre.
Need a Tank? Why not use SkarmBliss.

Competitive:
1.5/5. All the positions poor Azu could be are taken by amazing others:
Skarmory takes the tank position, Kyogre takes special sweeper. I would play him as a Barrage Singer over Wigglytuff......


Casual: 3/5. It seems Casual players aren't as worried of having all LV. 100 pokemon or having well-rounded types. When n00bish level 36 so called unbeatable Charizards come along, you can use this fella.

You guys keep on rollin',

Reeve Azumarill.
# 184.
Type: Water.
Ability: Thick Fat/ Huge Power.
Locations: Evolve Marill.

Hi everyone. Welcome to another Pokémon of the Week. Today we’re reviewing that aquatic blue mouse; Azumarill.

Big defenses and… Big defenses. I think that’s all. This Pokémon has not the best move pool out there. Honestly this one is an Underused and won’t move out of there for a while.

Its ability Huge Power is definitely better than Thick Fat, because you can make this defensive Pokémon a little more offensive when necessary. Plus, Thick Fat won’t do such a great thing, because you won’t see a lot of rivals attacking Azumarill with fire or ice attacks.

Now, for the move combination we’re making a sub puncher (substitute and focus punch). I think that’s our best shot.

Azumarill.
Nature: Adamant (+ Attack, - Special attack).
Equip: Leftovers.
EV´s: 252 Attack, 252 HP, 6 Speed.
- Substitute
- Focus punch
- HP ghost
- Toxic

Traditional sub puncher. HP ghost for ghosts and Toxic because I don’t know what else to throw there, but if you really want to try you may do it with Attract or encore, maybe amnesia.

When should I use this Pokémon?
You really shouldn’t I think, but if you really want to try this one. Use it against with low defenses.

What should I use against this Pokémon?
Electric or Grass types will beat this one for sure…

Bottom line:
Marill may be popular among cute-Pokémon lovers, but this one won’t be that popular, period.

Rating:
2.2/5

Hope you enjoyed.
Reeve.
