The store consists of all available characters from which players can view general information, stats, and abilities of Pokémon before purchasing them.
Pokémon Unite Azumarill moveset
Passive: enormous power
When this Pokémon hits only one opposing Pokémon with a basic attack, move, or its Unite move, the hit is always a critical hit. However, when this Pokémon hits two or more opposing Pokémon at the same time with a basic attack, move, or its Unite move, the hits are never critical.
Basic attack
The move becomes a power attack every third attack, dealing increased damage to opposing Pokémon within a conical area of effect in front of the player.
Skill 1- Contrast
The player charges forward, dealing damage to any opposing Pokémon that it hits, leaving them unable to act for a short time.
Skill choices at level 5
Skill 1 evolves into one of two skills at level 5.
Hydromassage | Tail of water |
---|---|
For a short time, four small eddies appear, whirling around the player as he moves. If a whirlwind hits an opposing Pokémon, the whirlwind deals damage to it and restores the player’s HP. If a Vortex hits a Pokémon on the opposing team, more HP is restored to the player. | The ability increases the speed and area of effect of the player’s next three basic attacks. If these Basic Attacks hit from a distance, they also deal greater damage, restore the user’s HP, and can ignore the defense stat and shield effects of opposing Pokémon they hit. |
Upgrade to level 11: The ability reduces the cooldown time of this move and increases the amount of HP it restores to the user. | Upgrade to level 11: After the player activates this move, his next three basic attacks will also reduce the cooldown time of all his moves when they hit an opposing Pokémon from a distance. |
Skill 2 – Bubble
Azumarill sprays bubbles into a cone, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon in the area of effect and decreasing their movement speed for a short time. The player can move while using this move.
Skill choices at level 7
Skill 2 evolves into one of two skills at level 7.
Play hard | Pulse of water |
---|---|
The ability increases the user’s movement speed for a short time and changes the player’s next basic attack. When the user performs his next basic attack, he lunges at an opposing Pokémon in range and delivers repeated hits, dealing damage to that Pokémon and leaving it unable to act for a short time. | Azumarill will spin in a designated direction, damaging any Pokémon hit and gaining an empowered attack. Shortly thereafter, Azumarill is granted a shield that nullifies an attack. When the attack is canceled by Azumarill, the shield disappears and Azumarill receives an empowered attack. |
Upgrade to level 11: Further increases the player’s movement speed when this move is used and also reduces the cooldown time of this move. | Upgrade to level 11: Increases the maximum number of targets the water jet can bounce between by two. |
Unite Move – Belly Bash
Azumarill has the player hammer in the belly three times, granting him a shield. With each pound, the player loses HP in exchange for his increased attack. The player can move while beating his belly. Next, the player targets an opposing Pokémon. It then charges that Pokémon, dealing damage and throwing any opposing Pokémon it hits as it charges.
The best items for Azumarill in Pokémon Unite
Later in this guide, we will discuss the best-kept items for Azumarill in Pokémon Unite, as well as his best battle item.
Better kept items
Element | Because it is useful |
---|---|
Focus band | Azumarill’s style of play revolves around one-on-one duel. Using Azumarill’s passive, he can deal as much damage as possible in duels. Using a focus band, it ensures that players will be able to fight safely with really low health. |
Buddha Barrier | Buddy Barrier is an extremely versatile item that is used on Azumarill to increase Azumarill’s base health. Azumarills’ Unite move is an extremely mobile move that allows Azumarill to force a one-on-one fight with an enemy. Buddy Barrier provides a large amount of shields that will almost guarantee Azumarill will win a duel against almost any other Pokémon! |
Goal of scope | Scope Lens is a great item option for Azumarill because every attack Azumarill hits on a single is a critical hit, so using Scope lens each attack does more damage |
The best battle items
- Speed X: X-Speed is currently the best item on Azumarill. Azumarill lacks mobility and enemies can easily move away from Azumarill in combat. X-Speed ensures that Azumarill is able to chase enemies or get out of combat should the need arise. Azumarill’s “Whirlpool” ability requires Azumarill to stay close to enemies in combat to heal the player. Using X-Speed, it ensures that the enemy always stays within range of the vortex.
- Eject button: The eject button allows Azumarill to travel instantly for a short distance of your choice. This item has a cooldown of 70 seconds. The Eject button is a universally powerful battle item that can allow Azumarill to engage, disengage, or use as a combo tool. The Eject button also ensures that the Azumarill Vortex remains within range of the enemy team.
- Potion: The potion is a 30 second cooldown item that heals the player for 12.5% of their maximum health. Azumarill must be in excellent health to stay in combat. By using a potion, it ensures that health can remain consistently high.
Pokémon Unite Azumarill Game Tips
Our Pokémon Unite Azumarill guide includes the perfect game plan for the beginning and end of the game during Join the battles.
Early game
At the start of the game, Azumarils’ main goal is to play aggressively and wilt opponents in one-on-one fights and catch as many wild Pokémon as possible. For this reason, Azumarill should be able to rack up a few kills and win laning, allowing players to snowball towards the end of the game. In lane, you should be able to fight one-on-one against the most opposing Pokémon. Therefore, players must ensure that they take advantage of all opportunities and punish their opponents whenever possible.
During the start of the game, the partner in the lane is usually a support. Players must ensure that they communicate to the partner in the lane what plays they wish to make. For example, if players see an enemy disposition, they need to make sure they tell their teammate to play aggressively. One time Drednaw spawns, one should be around level 7 and fully evolved. By reaching levels 7-8, Azumarill reaches the highest power peak where they should attempt to fight for Drednaw if they are ahead.
Late game
By the end of the game, you should have a level advantage due to aggressive play at the start of the game. Players should try to use this level, putting the rest of the team ahead. Like all other characters, protecting Zapdos with the team is a necessity. Once Zapdos spawns, Azumarill should try to stay out of sight of the enemy team. This way, players will be able to spot single enemies at a time.
Positioning of Azumarill
Being an all-rounder, Azumarill is mostly played in the bottom lane with a support Pokémon. However, Azumarill can also be played in the middle lane, due to the large amount of damage Azumarill does to isolated Pokémon. Since handymen have a balance between attack and defense, players need to make sure they stand in front of their allies to protect them or stay behind them instead if they are to deal a lot of damage while receiving little in return.
Azumarill specializes in one-on-one combat, so players should try to use their high mobility in team fights to move around the opposing team and spot an enemy target. With Azumarill, eliminating lower health or weaker enemies should be prioritized, as Azumarill is able to chase almost any character to commit to attacking and knocking them out without taking too much damage as a result.
Azumarill with other Pokémon
Better synergies with Azumarill
Our Pokémon Unite Azumarill guide also focuses on the relationship between Azumarill and other Pokémon.
Pokémon | Benefits |
---|---|
Bliss | Blissey is one of the strongest characters to pair with Azumarill. Because, Blisseys’ abilities provide instant healing to get out of impossible-to-win fights, movement speed to easily outflank enemies, and increased attack speed to deal consistent damage. All of these buffs provided by Blissey make Azumarill an immortal 1-on-5 monster that can beat almost any opposing Pokémon in a fight. |
Eldegos | Eldegoss is another supporter who goes well with Azumarill, thanks to the healing and shield provided. Azumarill needs large amounts of health to play aggressively. Eldegoss allows Azumarill to constantly pressure the enemy team with skill and wipe out entire teams, one Pokémon at a time, due to the high amount of health regeneration and shields provided. |
Wigglytuff | Wigglytuff goes well with Azumarill thanks to their high defenses and great crowd control abilities. Wigglytuff Starlight Recital’s Unite move goes particularly well with Azumarill as the large shield provided allows Azumarill to make aggressive plays and engage in tough fights without losing much. |
Snorlax | Snorlax offers a great deal of crowd control through the use of abilities like “Heavy Slam” and “Block”, both abilities can prevent opposing Pokémon from moving or moving them. This Pokémon’s abilities are beneficial to Azumarill as they allow Pokémon to locate and kill them with ease |
Strong and weak Pokémon against Azumarill
Strong against | Weak against |
---|---|
Wigglytuff | Trevenant |
Snorlax | Greedy |
Mamoswine | Zareena |
Ninetales of Alola | Cinderella |
Mr. Mimo | Greninja |
Pokémon Unite Azumarill: tips and tricks
This guide will also discuss some tips and tricks for playing the game Azumarill in Pokémon Unite.
- Azumarill excels at one-on-one battles because Azumarills’ passive makes every attack a critical hit when battling only one Pokémon.
- Azumarill is a great choice for solo play because Azumarill excels at one-on-one duels with other Pokémon, meaning teammates aren’t needed in fights. Azumarill’s Unite move also allows him to spot opponents from a distance and consequently get easy kills.
- Azumarill has a relatively low base health amount for a handyman. For this reason, players must be wary of enemy surprise attacks and practice using their high mobility to dodge attacks and abilities.
- Azumarill always needs to be on the lookout for surprise attacks, while taking advantage of his high mobility to make many early plays on the map. Map awareness is key when playing Azumarill.
- Save the Unite move for Zapdos. This is an easily overlooked aspect of the game that can change the entire outcome of the game. Saving Unite Move for Zapdos ensures they can secure the objective and win the game. Players must try to move around the opposing team during the Zapdos fight and use the combination of their skills and the Unite move to wipe out the enemy team.
- Make sure you check the map before Zapdos spawns. They must look around in the bushes surrounding Zapdos to make sure there are no devious enemies waiting to steal him.
Final thoughts
Azumarill is a cute Pokémon that packs a punch, despite its cute appearance. Currently, Azumarill is a fairly balanced character as none of Azumarill’s stats or abilities are ridiculously high. If players like to play characters with great dueling skills and a great deal of healing, then Azumarill might be of interest.
