E4's Favorite Azurill, Marill, & Azumarill (Closed - Results)

[inertgeometry]

How this works:

• the “Design” poll is just to get a rough count of participants
• cards are listed in chronological order based on first release
• each card will have a picture followed by the option to vote for it.
• vote for any card that you like.
• on Sunday at 12PM Pacific Time, the polls will automatically close. I will edit this post and title to count down from least to most voted, and we will see which cards are E4’s Favorite.

Note: Most of these images are pulled from quick google searches, eBay, or Bulbapedia if they had a large enough file. If you'd like me to replace an image, you're welcome to post it in the comments.

"E4's Favorite" Polls - Archive

Overview Why I began doing these polls in December 2023 as a way to see how the community here ranks cards of various Pokemon or types of cards. Sometimes we may have an idea of what is #1, but what might round out the top 10? It’s hard to guess, and we always end up surprised in the end. It is also a great avenue to learn about new cards of Pokemon we may not have seen before. As time goes on and the quantity of these becomes overwhelming, I figured it would be beneficial to have them all g…

[ddk]

I appreciate these “less loved” Pokemon as a break from the big hitters. Makes you realize how much lovely art some of these little guys have.

[inertgeometry]

i’ve been meaning to do Marill for @TheMarillFoundation but haven’t gotten around to it yet. figured i’d do the whole line together to save time

[DarthEevee]

The art rare from PE is so good

[Ruley711]

I gotta say, I am shocked how many Azumarill cards I really like. Always loved the Pokémon but didn’t realize a lot of its cards were so good too, highlighted by aquapolis which is one of my favourite ever artworks in the TCG

Also this poll seems like the appropriate place to say Togepi line might be a good poll (similar to this Marill one)

[WailordEnthusiast]

The line really has great art. Found myself voting for a ton of cards.

There is also this magnificient azumarill cameo on a kingdra card by Arita:

[mrbubbles]

Thanks for the poll @inertgeometry . I really enjoyed this more than I initially thought I would. This is just so out of the perceived character for Azumarill and Rhydon for that matter and it is just the best.

Cheers!

[filthynwah]

Unlike the recent polls, I think these are all pretty consistently good. The floor is high.

[inertgeometry]

i thought about including this one, but it’s so hard to make out with the jp scan

[inertgeometry]

i’m a huge fan of the newest azumarill. idk what it is about it, but it works for me

[DarthEevee]

In addition to the cute art, it’s kind of broken

[Bingbong]

The two ito cards are amazing. I really love that different styles get used by Pokemon. I don’t think I’ve known of Ito before this poll so thanks as always for compiling the lists!

[c0ll3ct0r]

My favorites, the Kimura is so lovely.

[lyleberr]

Marill has to be one of the happiest looking pokemon ever. The whole line is just constantly good vibes on 90% of the card art.

[lookaclara]

So many cute blue babies!!

[joponnes]

Like others have mentioned this was again a great reminder of how great art the slightly less loved pokemon get so often, i too voted for tons of cards. I think it also helps that there’s no mediocre ultra rares bringing the whole picture down.

[TheMarillFoundation]

You are a legend!
I’m very curious to see what card is E4’s #1 pick

[Taigataipan]

I feel no remorse for surpassing the legal limit of likes in this poll, so many good artworks through all generations.

Even sets like Steam Siege felt great for a brief moment while admiring its Marill and shiny Azumarill.

[inertgeometry]

@Taigataipan

Even sets like Steam Siege felt great

steam siege hate is a psyop by flippers who are just mad that it doesn’t hold big value.

it’s one of the best XY sets

[DarthEevee]

I’m convinced this is where a lot (not all, maybe not even more than half, but a lot) of negative sentiment in recent years has come from. No $1000 chase card? Garbage set. Ad naseum
