Azurill's ball tail appears to be the biggest of its evolution family, this is due to Azurill's body itself being small. 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, not under its chest. It also has no arms; however, this does not affect its mobility.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Azurill spins its tail as if it were a lasso, then hurls it far. The momentum of the throw sends its body flying, too. Using this unique action, one of these Pokémon managed to hurl itself a record 33 feet.
Battling-wise, Azurill are incredibly weak due to their infantile state, having very little potential.
Behavior
On sunny days they gather at the edge of water and splash about for fun. Azurill will spin its tail as if it were a lasso, then hurl it far. The momentum of the throw sends its body flying, too.
Azurill first appeared in Pikachu's PikaBoo as one of the Pokémon that played Hide 'n' Seek with Pikachu.
May made an attempt at capturing the Polka Dot Pokémon in A Ruin with a View. She failed and her Torchic got sprayed into submission by the Azurill's evolved forms.
Azurill, the Water Ball Pokémon. Azurill is able to throw its tail like a lasso, using the momentum to move about. (Note: Azurill's actual classification is the Polka Dot Pokémon, not the Water Ball Pokémon, as stated.)
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness: Azurill is one of the residents of Treasure Town. He gets captured by Drowzee and is forced to get treasure for him, but is rescued by the player's team. Azurill and his older brother Marill continue to search for the item Water Float, hearing that there's one at the beach. Soon after, Azurill and Marill find out that it is at Amp Plains and asks if the player and his/her partner could get it. Later on, Azurill falls into an unwakeable nightmare, and the player has to get Drowzee's help to look into his dream.

Azurill is currently the only Pokémon which does not evolve based on gender whose gender ratio does not match that of its evolved forms, being female 75% of the time while Marill and Azumarill are female only 50% of the time. Due to this, one of every three female Azurill evolve into a male Marill (whether or not this will happen is determined by the hidden personality value). It is unknown if this is an error in programming or if it was intentional to reference real-world animals that can change gender.
Azurill is the lightest and shortest non-Water-type Pokémon to learn Surf.
