A Pokemon fan artist has shared their idea for what Azurill might look like if it were transformed into a human. The prolific fan artist is known for their gijinka, or anthropomorphized takes on non-human characters, and frequently shares Pokemon work with fellow fans.
Azurill was introduced way back in Gen 3 of the Pokemon games, following Marill's addition in Gen 2. The Normal-type baby form of the popular Water/Fairy-type Pokemon gave Pokemon fans a bit of a challenge to acquire it, as it wasn't a simple matter of finding one in the wild or getting two Marill to simply breed, like with other Pokemon. However, getting Azurill and its evolved forms has become easier in subsequent games, leading many fans to be fond of this particular Pokemon.
Pokemon fan endifi shared their imagining of what it would look like if Azurill were a human child, rather than a water-type baby Pokemon. Dubbing it Zuri the human gijinka version of Azurill is tearing up, similarly to its Pokemon counterpart, which bears a similarly upset expression in official art. The human version seems as though it may have recently fallen down. Dressed primarily in blue, this version of the Pokemon has flotation device-like tubes on its neck and limbs, and a cute pull-on blue hat that resembles the original Azurill evolutionary line's ears and head. Rather than it having an attached tail, it looks like the large blue ball on the end of Azurill's tail has been transformed into some kind of toy, with the human version of the Pokemon holding a stick that it's connected to as it looks up and cries.
While Pokemon fan artists often dream up regional forms, new Mega Evolutions, and similar twists on Pokemon, gijinka are a little less likely to become reality in any of the games or anime releases. However, that's arguably part of the fun of fan art, as it can imagine scenarios that is unlikely exist in the official releases. Endifi has created numerous gijinka of Pokemon in the past, finding inspiration in the originals' designs and transforming that into something that would suit a human variant of the creatures.
Pokemon fans seem to draw from a nearly endless font of creativity, with designs like these being particularly popular among players. Interestingly, in the games, it's usually people becoming Pokemon and not the other way around, with creatures like Yamask and Kadabra being examples of Pokemon who used to be human. However, it's not entirely unheard of for Pokemon to turn into humans. Latias may have inspired some of the Pokemon gijinka popularity, as the creature has a history of having shapeshifted into a human form in the Pokemon Heroes movie it starred in.
