Levitate is the only ability Azelf can have. To maximize its potential in raids, you can use it together with an ally with Psychic Terrain, which Azelf can then enjoy after using Skill Swap to remove Levitate from itself.
We also recommend getting a Azelf with a Psychic Tera Type since it will improve the power of its Psychic-type Stored Power. As an Attacker with a focus on Special Moves, a Modest nature would be best.
Best Tera Types: Best Pokemon to Terastallize
Tera Raid EV spreads should lean towards Bulky Special Attacker. Max out Azelf's HP and Sp.Atk EVs while adding the remaining 4 EVs into Defense so that Azelf can hit as hard as possible with Stored Power.
For this build, giving it a Shell Bell allows it to recover health while dealing damage.
Azelf Tera Raid Turn-by-Turn Counter Strategy | |
---|---|
Turn 1 | Use Nasty Plot once to boost your Sp. Atk. |
Optional | If Psychic Terrain is active, use Skill Swap to boost your Psychic type Moves. |
Turns 2~4 | Use Mystical Power to build Tera Orb Charges while also raising your Sp. Atk. |
Turns 5+ | Terastallize and use Stored Power or you can max out your Sp. Atk by using Mystical Power one more time. |
The bread and butter of this build is to use Mystical Power to build Tera Orb charges to power up Stored Power. Nasty Plot is added to the kit to get to max Sp. Atk buffs faster.
Skill Swap is used when you know one of your Raid Party members is carrying Psychic Terrain. You can swap out the move with either Light Screen or Reflect to fix Azelf's mittling defenses.
Super Effective Damage Dealt by Azelf |
|
---|---|
Stored Power(+6 Sp. Atk, Psychic Tera) 2,864 ~ 3,372 (37.6 ~ 44.3%) |
|
Stored Power(+6 Sp. Atk, Psychic Terrain (Ability Swapped), Psychic Tera) 3,724 ~ 4,384 (49 ~ 57.6%) |
Super Effective (2x) |

---|---|
Not Very Effective (x0.5) | |
No Effect (x0) |
This Azelf Tera Raid Build is an effective counter to Poison and Fighting Type Tera Raid Bosses. If the Tera Raid Boss is usually a Dark, Bug, or Ghost Type outside of Terastallization, perhaps consider a different build, as Azelf will be weak to these Types as a Psychic-Type attacker.
