Card 083

Marill, the Aqua Mouse Pokémon, is a beloved Water/Fairy-type creature (originally pure Water-type before the introduction of the Fairy type in Generation VI). Introduced in Generation II with the release of Pokémon Gold and Silver, Marill quickly captured hearts with its cheerful demeanor and distinctive blue, spherical body. It evolves from Azurill when leveled up with high friendship during the day, and then evolves into Azumarill starting at level 18. Its evolutionary line is known for its playfulness and strong aquatic abilities. Marill is frequently found near rivers, lakes, and other bodies of fresh water, where its buoyant, oil-filled tail helps it navigate strong currents. In the Pokémon anime, Marill gained significant prominence as Tracey Sketchit's companion in the Johto region, showcasing its gentle nature and utility. Its simple yet charming design has made it a recurring favorite in merchandise and fan art, symbolizing cuteness and resilience in the Pokémon world. Its dual typing gives it interesting matchups, being strong against Fire, Ground, Rock, Fighting, Dragon, and Dark types, while being weak to Grass, Electric, and Poison types.
