Now let me tell ya, this Azelf fella in Pokémon Go, oh boy, it ain’t easy to catch. It’s one of them Psychic-types, ya know, the ones that mess with your mind. If you wanna beat it, ya gotta bring out the big guns. I’m talkin’ about them Bug-, Dark-, and Ghost-type Pokémon. These are the ones Azelf is scared of, but don’t think it’s gonna be a walk in the park, nope.
Azelf is part of what they call the “Lake Trio.” Yeah, there’s also Uxie and Mesprit, but Azelf is a bit easier than Uxie, from what I hear. Still, don’t try to take it on all by yourself! It just ain’t possible, not even for the toughest trainers. You need a team, and not just any team. We’re talkin’ three to six high-level folks who know what they’re doin’. If you can get that together, you should be able to bring Azelf down without too much fuss.

Now, here’s the thing. Azelf only shows up in Five-Star Raids. And not just anywhere, either. It’s stickin’ to the Americas and Greenland. So, if you ain’t there, well, you’re outta luck unless you use them Remote Raid Passes. But, even with those, ya gotta remember, they reduce your damage a bit. So, it’s better to be there in person if ya can.
How to beat Azelf?
If you’re fightin’ Azelf, you’re gonna wanna use a move called Brutal Swing. Trust me on this, that move packs a punch against this little Psychic-type. Plus, bring Pokémon like Gengar, Darkrai, or Scizor—ones that can hit hard with Bug-, Dark-, or Ghost-type moves. That’s the way to do it.
- Number of players needed: 3-6 strong trainers.
- Best Pokémon to use: Gengar, Darkrai, Scizor.
- Best moves: Brutal Swing, Shadow Ball, or Bug Bite.
But don’t ya worry if ya ain’t got the best Pokémon. The key is to have a good mix of types that counter Azelf. And if you got a whole team of folks, everyone workin’ together, Azelf will go down. It might take a couple of tries, but that’s how it is with these tough Raid bosses.
Where can ya find Azelf?
Like I said, Azelf is only poppin’ up in the Americas and Greenland. It’s also one of them regional exclusives. That means if you’re somewhere else, like Europe or Asia, you ain’t gonna find it. But don’t worry, Mesprit and Uxie are over in them regions, so you ain’t missin’ out too much. Plus, there’s always a chance for a global event where these fellas will show up everywhere.
These raids started on June 1 at 10 AM local time, so ya better keep an eye on your game to catch Azelf when it’s around. You don’t wanna miss out, ’cause who knows when it’ll come back.
Final tips for Azelf Raids
- Get a team of 3-6 strong players, and make sure they got them Dark-, Bug-, or Ghost-type Pokémon ready.
- Watch out for Azelf’s strong Psychic-type moves, but if ya hit hard and fast, you’ll be fine.
- Always bring them strong moves like Brutal Swing or Shadow Ball.
- And don’t forget, Azelf is only in the Americas and Greenland, so make sure you’re in the right spot or use that Remote Raid Pass!
So, there ya go. Azelf might seem tough, but with the right team and a bit of luck, you’ll have that fella down in no time. Good luck out there, trainers!
