    DESCRIPTION

    This is an English Pokémon Trading Card Game card featuring Azumarill, a Stage 1 Aqua Rabbit Pokémon with 100 HP. The artwork, illustrated by Sanasuke Sakuma, depicts Azumarill in a dynamic pose surrounded by bubbles, highlighting its Water typing. It has two attacks: 'Play Rough' for 30+ damage, which can increase with a coin flip, and 'Bubble Drain' for 80 damage, which also heals 30 damage from Azumarill. The card information also shows its weakness to Grass (x2), resistance to Metal (-20), and a retreat cost of two colorless energy.

    CULTURAL ECHOES

    Where This Object Echoes

    Japanese Mythology/FolkloreAncient to Modern

    Azumarill's 'Aqua Rabbit' designation and aquatic nature can be tied to various water spirits or mythical creatures in Japanese folklore that are associated with lakes, rivers, or the ocean, often possessing gentle yet mischievous qualities. Its rabbit-like features also link it to the 'Moon Rabbit' motif in East Asian mythology.

    Meaning Through Time

    Early Pokémon (Generation II)

    Azumarill often represented a cute, accessible Water-type Pokémon for players, known for its ability to learn powerful moves, especially 'Huge Power' in the video games, making it a surprisingly strong contender.

    HISTORICAL STORY

    This Azumarill card was released as part of the XY Furious Fists expansion set for the Pokémon TCG.

    This Azumarill card was released as part of the XY Furious Fists expansion set for the Pokémon TCG. Furious Fists itself launched in August 2014, continuing the XY series' focus on newly introduced Fairy-type Pokémon and new game mechanics, though Azumarill here retains its Water typing from earlier generations. It represents the evolved form of Marill, a popular Pokémon known for its charming, simple design, dating back to the Generation II games (Pokémon Gold and Silver). The set also introduced Mega Evolution Pokémon-EX to the TCG.

    DID YOU KNOW?

    1

    Azumarill's design is inspired by a rabbit and a ball, specifically incorporating elements that mimic life rafts or bubble-like flotation devices, tying into its Water-type nature.

    2

    The 'Aqua Rabbit Pokémon' classification is unique to Azumarill and its pre-evolutions, highlighting its distinctive combination of aquatic and mammalian characteristics.

    MATERIAL & CONDITION

    Surface

    The card exhibits a standard card stock finish with a glossy, holographic pattern across the illustration, characteristic of a 'Holo Rare' variant. The surface appears relatively smooth, though minor wear on the edges could indicate handling.

    Weight & Feel

    Typical lightweight cardstock, feeling rigid and thin, as expected for a standard Pokémon trading card.

    Condition

    Visually, the card appears to be in played to near-mint condition. The centering seems good, and the surface shows some minor light reflection which could be dust or minor scratches. Without a view of the back and under direct lighting, identifying specific edge or corner wear is difficult, but there are no immediately obvious major creases or bends visible from the front.
