What Pokemon are good checks and counters to azumarill?
I find it hard to incorporate a specific Pokemon to deal with azumarill on my team. It’s so strong, almost impossible to ohko..and the fact that it can be choice banded, assault vest or belly drum is so difficult. Any tips?

Whimsicott @ LeftoversAbility: PranksterEVs: 252 HP, 252 Def, 4 Sp. DEfNature: Impish/ Bold- Encore- Leech Seed- Substitute/ Protect- Taunt/ U-Turn
The main strategy with Whimiscott is to force Azumarill into using Belly Drum again via Encore, though it only works for BellyJet sets.
Heliolisk @ Choice Specs/ Scarf/ Life OrbAbility: Dry SkinEVs: 252 Sp. atk, 252 Speed, 4 HPNature: Timid- Volt Switch- Surf- Thunderbolt- Dark Pulse/ Focus Blast/ HP Fire
252 SpA Choice Specs Heliolisk Thunderbolt vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Azumarill: 470-554 (116.3 - 137.1%) – guaranteed OHKO
Toxicroak @ Life OrbAbility: Dry SkinEVs: 252 Atk, 252 Speed, 4 HPNature: Adamant/ Jolly- Poison Jab/ Gunk Shot- Drain Punch- Ice Punch/ Sucker Punch- Swords Dance
252+ Atk Life Orb Toxicroak Poison Jab vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Azumarill: 393-463 (97.2 - 114.6%) – 81.3% chance to OHKO
Gunk Shot will definitely OHKO but has lower accuracy
Basically anything with dry skin will block Aqua Jet, and both Helolisk and Toxicroak can fire back super effective damage.
Or…
