*Azurill is also the first and currently only Pokémon whose gender ratio (75% ♀ / 25% ♂) is different than that of its evolved form (50% ♀ / 50% ♂). This causes 1 in 3 female Azurill to evolve into male {{p|Marill}}. It is unknown if this is a programming error, or a reference to real-world animals that can change gender.

Azurill's ball tail appears to be the biggest of its evolution family. It is large and bouncy and packed full of the nutrients this Pokémon needs to grow. Azurill can be seen bouncing and playing on its big, rubbery tail. The tail is a flotation device in water. It is the only one of its evolutions with white to the side of its cheeks and not under its chest.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
