Azumarill....?
I suddenly found a new love for Azumarill when D/P came out since there were a lot of Physical attacks to choose from to complement her Huge Power trait. Of course, I did use a Ninjask to pass her some Speed and some additional Attack.
Ninjask @ Focus Sash Trait: Speed Boost Impish Nature - Swords Dance - Protect - Endure - Baton Pass (The ultimate sacrifice. Useless in battle, outstanding BPing capability.) Azumarill @ Life Orb Trait: Huge Power Adamant Nature - Aqua Ring - Waterfall - Ice Punch - Return I've been thinking a lot about replacing Return but I'm just not sure as to what move to replace it with. Help? Thanks. :D |
DOOOD! WHY AZUMARILL?!!! ITZ LIEK, A WATER TYPZ! YOOSE AZURIL!
I suck at Leet... Seriously, Azumarill has Superpower as an option. She (It IS a she?) has a base 100 HP. Can't it be an effective Sub Puncher with Focus Punch? |
I don't think Ninjask will do her any good... Sandstream starters are getting too common, and focus sash won't help much. I personally prefer Ninjask as a weather changer so it can actually survive and pass to something that needs the weather change (my personal favorite - Heatran, with 1 speed boost and Sunny Day, terrorizing almost everything with life orb, and the opponent isn't going to be using earthquake on Ninjask).
Also, having focus sash and endure sounds a bit contradicting.. maybe substitute over endure and leftovers over focus sash? just a suggestion. Try wing attack instead of protect, it wouldn't hurt against all those annoying starter infernapes. Azumarill is a pretty neat pokemon.. I feel it's almost a crime not giving it Aqua Jet, coz a priority move is always good, especially a STAB'd one from a Huge Power pokemon. SubPunching Azu is good too. |
Subpunching Azu is underrated power. Of course, I second Aqua Ring. Quick kills are important.

QFE, + double emphasis on the ninjask bit. give ninjask aerial ace (or if you have a fear for gengar starters, night slash), and i prefer giving it a lot of HP w/ leftovers (and not that i suggest it, but i always give it substitute). if you give ninjask focus sash, instead of sunny day, since it is azumarill, give it rain dance. double stab waterfall = ownage, and prevents sandstorm from ridding focus sash of its usefulness. |

212 HP / 252 Atk / 44 Speed Trait:Huge Power Adamant Nature - Ice Punch - Brick Break / Focus Punch - Waterfall - Aqua Jet / Substitute It also makes a pretty neat Choice Bander, obviously without Substitute lol. Return is Meh as it already covers everything that Ice Punch, Brick Break and Waterfall and Aqua Jet will hit ._., however use Return if you wish . Brick Break .Ice Punch and Waterfall obviously for coverage, Aqua Jet is for quick kills on things that are faster than you if your low on Hp. Also Sub punch = Pwnage with Pure Power so its up to you on that one. Also in regards to Ninjask. It = Fail unless you run a Rapid Spinner to remove Stealth Rock as Jask takes 50 % each time it switches into it. |
Jask is the lead.
Subpunch/Waterfall/Ice Punch sounds good. Do it. |

Hmm, hmm, hmm... Subpuncher idea interests me. She DOES have 100 base HP to use. I don't believe I'll need Aqua Jet, though. After I use SD, Protect, and Endure once each, I'll have had 3 Speed Boosts to pass to her. Nice idea about the Sand Streamers, though. I'll be giving Jask Rain Dance now.
Is THIS what it should look like? Ninjask @ Leftovers Trait: Speed Boost Impish Nature - Rain Dance - Swords Dance - Substitute - Baton Pass and Azumarill should be.... what now? Azumarill @ Life Orb / Leftovers Trait: Huge Power Adamant Nature - Waterfall - Ice Punch - Brick Break / Focus Punch - Aqua Ring / Substitute yeah? |
i don't think you get it. giving it rain dance/sunny day is when you give it focus sash. this way, your focus sash does not get ruined by Sandstream/Hail, and if they attack you, yay, focus sash to the rescue rather dying to to sand damage.

Where does it say Azumarill can learn ice punch?
http://pokemon.marriland.com/diamond_pearl/pokedex/azumarill There it doesn't list ice punch as a learnable move. EDIT: Oh, by move tutor in Emerald. Go Azumarill the sweeper! What the above people said: Aqua Ring Brick Break/Focus Punch/Superpower/Return (see what works for your playstyle + the stuff you hit) Aqua Jet > Waterfall Ice Punch Also as the other people said baton passing Ninjask is OU (I think) and may be heavily countered in some metas. That's a different topic though. |
Aqua Jet/Ice Punch is illegal.
Stick with Waterfall. |
