Pokémon Go Azelf counters, weaknesses and moveset explained Azelf, one of the Lake Guardians, can occasionally be found in Pokémon Go. Guide by Lottie Lynn Guides Editor Updated on 14 Sep 2021 Azelf can be encountered rarely in the wild and in raids during certain Pokémon Go in-game events, making it a good idea to know this Pokemon's weaknesses and counters. Like Uxie and Mesprit, Azelf is a regional exclusive Pokémon and can only be found in the Americas and Greenland. Even if you live in these regions, you'll find it hard to locate Azelf in the wild due to its low spawn rate. When Azelf is available in raids, it, like all Legendary Pokémon, will appear in five-star raids. Depending on the strength of your Pokémon, you may need to fight alongside a group of trainers or be able to tackle Azelf by yourself. Either way, remember that you can use a Remote Raid pass if you prefer to play at home.

Everything we know about Azelf Azelf is a member of the Lake Guardians who originate from the Sinnoh region. Along with Uxie and Mesprit, Azelf was created by Areceus - i.e. Pokémon god - and made its home at Lake Valor in eastern Sinnoh. Uxie and Mesprit - the other members of the Lake Guardians trio. Legends tell that Areceus tasked the Lake Guardians with two important tasks - the first was to calm Dialga and Palkiaif they ever went into a rage and the second was to teach certain abilities to humans. Since Azelf is the Pokémon of willpower, it taught humans the ability of willpower, giving them free action. Other stories, however, demonstrate a less benevolent side of Azelf, claiming that the Pokémon, wanting to be left alone, would steal the willpower of humans. Interestingly, the Lake Guardians are currently the only legendary trio in the Pokémon universe that all share the same typing.
