Using Azelf in battle

Most Used Azelf Set: Azelf usually runs suicide zelf, which is meant to set up stealth rocks, survive a move with it’s sash, and explode killing anything which isn’t resistant or immune and allowing one of your sweepers to freely switch in, the np set is somewhat neglected in today’s metagame, meaning you won’t see it often, compared to the huge amount of suicide azelf which is the most used starter. Trick sets are somewhat used but not much, but trick scarf is kind of rising in popularity, since you basically trick a choice scarf onto all those hippowdon leads or heck, other suicide leads!

Usual Counters: The suicide azelf is countered by ttar, and ttar is almost always used as a lead, same goes to suicide azelf, hence suicide azelf will have a lot of problems with said ttar. Ss will break it’s sash, but azelf is faster so it will basically have fulfilled it’s duty which is to set up rocks and then die, but, actually, come to think of it, ttar can be a pain for all azelf’s, even np hp fighting can’t ko some bulky ttar which are being more used now, and, it can pursuit if you flee killing you, and will still kill you if you don’t, even with sash since ss will ruin you, weavile also works in the same fashion, kind of.

Sets Used To Counter Its Counters: Azelf’s run focus sash so they can survive anything weavile throws at them and then flame thrower for the kill, hp fighting is used to kill ttar but an extremely bulky ttar can survive even np hp fighting (if it doesn’t carry life orb). Scarf sets with prediction can also ruin weavile, but terribly fail against tyranytar.

Azelf Is Most Used On: Offensive teams, since suicide zef is meant to set up sr for sweepers to have an easier time sweeping and then sacrifice itself buying a free turn for one of the 5 sweepers that will be on the team, sometimes azelf is used as a sweeper but in today’s metagame you might not see much of it.
