How to Get Azelf

Catch in Crimson Mirelands

Azelf can be found inside a cavern in the middle of Lake Valor at Crimson Mirelands. It is one of three Pokemon you need to capture to complete Mission 21: Plate of the Lakes.

Steps to Encounter Azelf in Alabaster Icelands
1 Accept Mission 21: Plate of the Lakes from Cogita.
2
Go to Crimson Mirelands, then head to the Diamond Settlement.
3 Lake Valor Pokemon Legends Arceus
Head for Lake Valor. Use your Hisuian Braviary to glide down to the middle of the lake and enter the cavern.
4 Azelf Pokemon Legends Arceus
Once inside the cavern, Azelf will spawn. The battle will start once you throw a Pokemon at it. Using Pokemon with Dark, Bug, or Ghost type moves will quickly lower Azelf's health.
5 Catch Azelf Pokemon Legends Arceus
Be sure to capture the Pokemon once it's weakened!

Azelf Respawns if Defeated

If you take down Azelf, you can simply just exit Lake Valor, head to a base camp to rest, and go back to Azelf's location. You will find that Azelf is back and is ready for another round!

Conversely, fighting Azelf repeatedly can be a good chance to rack up some EXP.
