Marill (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Marill is able to swim in strong water currents without being slowed down by the water's resistance, due to its water-repellent fur. Marill feeds on aquatic plants in addition to fishing for food. When it dives, its tail can be seen bobbing on the water's surface. It will anchor its tail around a tree when fishing at the edge of a fast-moving stream. Marill never gets cold after swimming in cold water, due to its water-repellent fur drying up quickly the moment it leaves the water. It lives on the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|water's edge}}.

==Trivia==

** In addition, Marill and Azurill both have the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} of all Fairy-type Pokémon.

* Because {{p|Azurill}}'s gender ratio does not match that of its evolved forms and its evolution is not dependent on gender, being female 75% of the time while Marill and Azumarill are female only 50% of the time, female Azurill have a one in three chance of [[Evolution|evolving]] into a male Marill prior to [[Generation VI]]. Whether or not this will happen is determined by its [[personality value]]. Azurill is the only Pokémon to do this.

* Marill's name was originally spelled '''Marril''', as shown in some merchandise for [[M01|the first movie]].

Marill may be based on a combination of a {{wp|mouse}} and a {{wp|beach ball}} or possibly a {{wp|personal flotation device}} or {{wp|lifebuoy}}. Its body and ears also resemble a {{wp|Properties of water|water molecule}}.

Marill's name, {{Shiny}} color scheme, and tail might also indicate that it is based on {{wp|marimo}}, free-floating, spherical balls of algae that are also known as lake balls or moss balls.
