Read more ↓Marill, the Aqua Mouse Pokémon, is a charming Water-type creature introduced in Generation II, making its debut in the Johto region. It is the pre-evolution of Azumarill and the evolution of Azurill, though Azurill was introduced in a later generation, creating a unique evolutionary path. Marill is known for its distinctive blue, spherical body and its large, bouncy tail, which is actually a large, oil-filled bubble that helps it float and allows it to breathe underwater for extended periods. This adaptability makes it a common sight in rivers and ponds. In the games, Marill is often encountered early on, providing a friendly face for new trainers. Its playful nature and adorable appearance have made it a fan favorite, particularly in the anime where it often accompanies characters like Misty. Marill's role in the Pokémon world extends beyond its cute demeanor; its evolutionary line eventually gains the Fairy type, making it a formidable opponent against Dragon-types in later generations. Its design, inspired by a mouse and a beach ball, contributes to its universal appeal and recognizability.
