Azelf (Japanese: アグノム Agnome) is a Psychic-type legendary Pokémon.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
Azelf is the third member of the lake guardians, the Sinnoh region's Psychic-type legendary Pokémon trio.
Biology
Physiology
Azelf is a small, gray, fairy-like Pokémon. It has two tails that each have a red jewel on them. These are, presumably, two of the jewels which complement the Red Chain. Azelf has a partially cyan face with another red gem encrusted into its forehead. Azelf has a cone-shaped head with fins on the side that somewhat resembles a crown.
Gender differences
Azelf is genderless,
although it is referred to as a male in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2.
Special abilities
Azelf has the ability to control one's will, according to the Sinnoh Pokémon Handbook.
It can also enter the body of another Pokémon or a human. According to legend, it can cause humans to lose all will inside of them, making them completely immobile.
Behavior
Habitat
Azelf sleeps beneath Lake Valor.

Azelf in the anime as a projected soul
Azelf appeared in spirit form (much like Mesprit did to Dawn in Following a Maiden's Voyage) to Ash in Pruning a Passel of Pals!.
In the manga
Azelf appeared briefly to Diamond and Pearl when they were trying to find Platinum at Lake Valor. Later, Pearl is sent to guard Azelf from Team Galactic. He was chosen because, fittingly, he is very hyper when compared to the calm Diamond or the knowledgable Platinum.

Trivia
Origin
Azelf appears to be a pixie or a fairy and the color cyan, although its name suggests that it's an elf. Azelf and the rest of the trio could possibly have originated from the Imperial Regalia of Japan, which are also called the Three Sacred Treasures. Azelf would be the Kusanagi, which embodies valor.
Name origin
Azelf comes from azure and elf or us and elf. The first part of its Japanese name may come from the Japanese verb 倦ねる aguneru, meaning to lose interest in and gnome.
