In Marill and Azumarill, the tail is said to be filled with an oily substance, while Azurill's page says that its filled with a nutritional substance. Is this the same oil? Does it feed off of it or even produce it naturally? -Professor DJM

Gender Bender

It changes gender? I'd read, or assumed, that the probability of finding/hatching female Azurill was just different to the probability of finding/hatching female Marill, not that they changed gender upon evolution. To me, this seems much more likely. — THE TROM — 20:27, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Different gender ratios between two members of an evolutionary line really does mean there are gender-benders. Since Azurill is 75-25 favoring female, three-quarters of the gender values correspond to female Azurill and one-quarter to male Azurill. Since Marill is 50-50, exactly half of the gender values go to each gender.
If all of the gender values and their correspondences can be placed in a line, one could see that one-quarter of the total gender values correspond to female Azurill and to male Marill. A female Azurill with such a gender value is a gender-bender and will evolve into a male Marill. It matters not how the Azurill is encountered and obtained. The "1 in 3 female Azurill" listed corresponds to only the gender values for female Azurill, ignoring the total one-quarter of the total gender values for male Azurill. --Shiningpikablu252 20:33, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Why is Azurill's page protected?

Why, I want to add one piece of trivia and I can't.--Midnight Blue 22:24, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Just about every Pokémon species article is locked down due to that idiotic Studio Bebop and their $1.99 iPhone application that uses Bulbapedia servers and Bulbapedia bandwidth to show Pokémon data. The protections are all set to expire around mid-November, and hopefully this crisis is resolved by then.
If you want to have a piece of trivia inserted, just drop it here and a sysop'll do the task. --Shiningpikablu252 22:53, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
Alright, well I looked, and Azurill is the only Generation III Pokémon that has an evolution from any previous generation. It might be on there if I overlooked it.--Midnight Blue 23:18, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
Sorry, but I can't insert that since it's false. And here's why: Like how Azurill evolves into Marill, Wynaut evolves into Wobbuffet. Wobbuffet, like Marill, was introduced in Generation II, but Wynaut, like Azurill, wasn't introduced until Generation III. --Shiningpikablu252 23:31, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
Dang... I forgot about Wynaut. Oh well, I tried.--Midnight Blue 23:43, 24 October 2009 (UTC)


Trivia

In the Trivia there is twice the information about Azurill being one of the two Pokémon to change type completely. --CitruX 01:29, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

I've removed the second one. Werdnae (talk) 02:41, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Sad

In B/W Azurill's sprites look sad. Is there any reason for this, because i thought baby pokemon were supposed to be happy. MasterGiygas 03:11, 22 December 2011 (UTC)

Possibly to match it's artwork better. Or maybe just because babies also cry a lot. But you can head over to the forums to talk about it if you like. Crystal Talian 03:17, 22 December 2011 (UTC)

Azurill a non-water-type Pokémon like the rest of its evolution family

How come that Azurill is a non-water-type Pokémon like the rest of its evolution family (Marill and Azumarill respectively)? jlog3000 13:29, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
