Question

So I caught Mesprite, and I wondered if I could catch the other three, so I went into lake variety and lo and behold, there was an Azelf. Well he was a stubborn bugger and refused to be caught. I didn't save and I didn't want to kill it, so I ran away (It had been poisoned). It said"Azelf fled deep into the cave." Did I mess up? Or is it still possible to catch?

Answer 1

Depends if it is Platinum or not. If its Diamond or Pearl you lost the Azelf forever. If its Platinum all you have to do is beat the Pokemon league again and Azelf will appear again. Next time save before you battle its a lot easier.

Actually, I tried the elite four method and it worked, I could catch Azelf.
