There are quite a few Pokemon for the collection challenge that are on the trickier side when it comes to finding them. One of these Pokemon is Azumarill, the final evolution of Azurill and Marill. This Pokemon is a dual Water andFairy-type Pokemon, making it weak to only Poison, Electric, and Grass-type moves. Azumarill also resists damage from Bug, Fighting, Water, Ice, Dark, Fire, and Dragon-type moves.
Unlike getting Diggersby, players can’t get Azumarill for this challenge by evolving Marill to have it count. Instead, players will need to participate in theexclusive field research tasksfor the Spring into Spring event.
There are five different field research tasks for Spring into Spring that players can get by spinning PokeStops, but only one will give an encounter with Azumarill as a prize. This field research task is the “Catch 15 Exeggcute” task. The other tasks give players encounters with Pokemon that can be found among the increased spawn rates for the event such as Flower Crown Pikachu, Flower Crown Eevee, Flower Crown Chansey, and Buneary. Players can additionally encounter Rufflet, which can be hatched from 2km eggs at this time.
If players can’t get the rightfield research taskfor Azumarill’s encounter, they are recommended to keep traveling to other PokeStops until they find the right one. Players, however, should note that they will need at least one free spot in their field research task list to take on any new ones. They also cannot get a new task from a PokeStop if they have completed the one they got from that PokeStop on the same day. For more tasks, players will need to visit more PokeStops.
Catching 15 Exeggcute shouldn’t be too much trouble during theSpring into Spring eventdue to the increased spawn rates of the Pokemon for the event itself. Additionally, members of Team GO Rocket will be using Shadow Exeggcute for players to rescue.
