Azumarill · Aquapolis, what to know.
About the Azumarill card
Numbered 4 of 182 in Aquapolis, released in January 2003, Azumarill is a Rare, a Stage 1 Water-type carrying 70 HP.
It evolves from Marill, so Azumarill is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.
Illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno. Himeno is one of the most-recognized vintage illustrators, with a softer, more textured style that shows up across the Jungle and Neo runs.
What is Azumarill worth?
Azumarill is a non-holo Rare. In Aquapolis, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Azumarill trades modestly, though a clean, well-centered 1st Edition copy in PSA 10 is scarcer than the print run suggests and carries a real premium. Check the live price above for the figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Azumarill before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Non-holo Rares like Azumarill are easier on surface but no kinder on centering. Wizards-era cards were less protected than the holos, so high-grade Azumarill survivors can be scarcer than expected, with edge whitening the usual cap.
If you are collecting Azumarill
For Azumarill, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Non-holo Rares from this era are cheap enough that a PSA 10 submission on a clean Azumarill can make sense.
