Azelf · Astral Radiance, what to know.
About the Azelf card
Numbered 67 of 216 in Astral Radiance, released in May 2022, Azelf is an Uncommon, a Basic Psychic-type carrying 70 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Azelf needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

Azelf carries this Pokédex flavor text: "It is thought that Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf all came from the same egg."
What is Azelf worth?
Azelf is an Uncommon, so raw copies are inexpensive and easy to find. The value is in condition: a genuine PSA 10, especially 1st Edition, can still reach a surprising figure for an otherwise common card. The live price above breaks it down by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Azelf before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Azelf grades forgivingly, but the same centering and edge standards apply. Pack-fresh raw copies are easy to find, which makes a clean PSA 10 submission a low-cost way to learn how the cardstock behaves under grading.
If you are collecting Azelf
Raw copies of Azelf are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Azelf is the practical move.
