| Crystal | The fur on its body naturally repels water. It can stay dry, even when it plays in the water. |
| Ruby | MARILL’s oil-filled tail acts much like a life preserver. If you see just its tail bobbing on the water’s surface, it’s a sure indication that this POKéMON is diving beneath the water to feed on aquatic plants. |
| Sapphire | When fishing for food at the edge of a fast-running stream, MARILL wraps its tail around the trunk of a tree. This POKéMON’s tail is flexible and configured to stretch. |

| LeafGreen | The tip of its tail, which contains oil that is lighter than water, lets it swim without drowning. |
| Emerald | Its body is covered with water-repellent fur. Because of the fur, it can swim through water at high speed without being slowed by the water’s resistance. |
