==Biology==
Azumarill is a blue, bipedal semiaquatic that has an ovoid body. The lower half of its body is white with a white, bubble-like pattern above it, which helps to camouflage it in water. It has elongated, rabbit-like ears with red insides and circular eyes. When in the water, it rolls up its ears to prevent the insides from becoming wet. Its arms and feet are short with rounded ends and no discernible digits. It has a black zigzagging tail with a blue, bubble-like tip. The tip of its tail tends to glow when it attacks or is excited.
Azumarill has highly developed hearing that allows it to hear distances, even when it is underwater. By keeping still and listening closely, it can identify prey even in wild, fast-moving rivers. If Azumarill spots a drowning Pokémon, it will make an air bubble that helps them breathe or when are playing near the rivers. It lives in and can live in the water all day long.

===Origin===
Azumarill may be based on a combination of a and a or possibly a or . It could be also possibly based on the s, which have a strong preference for wet areas (such as , es, s, and river ) and that will take to the water and swim. Azumarill's water-like splash pattern may reflect from the camouflage of of aquatic animals such as s and s, being that they have a dark coloration on top to match the dark water underneath and a white coloration on their under to match the sunlight from above.
Its body shape, rabbit appearance and body pattern could be a reference to and s. Azumarill's resemblance to a rabbit likely influences its and its ability (which serves as a pun for "fortifying mochi"). These aspects may draw inspiration from the legend, where people interpret the dark markings on the Moon as a rabbit. The choice of the Fairy type is also fitting, as it is often associated with the moon and sweet treats.
====Name origin====
Azumarill may be a combination of azure (a shade of blue), azul (Spanish and Portuguese for blue), or azul marino (Spanish for navy blue), mar (Spanish and Portuguese for sea) or , and possibly rill (a small river or brook).
Marilli may be a combination of 丸い marui (round or circular) or 鞠 mari (ball), 瑠璃 ruri (), and possibly rill (a small river or brook) and マリンブルー marine blue.
