Absol is a fictional Pokémon character, Dark-type white dog. It has a blue face, black tail, and a black scythe or ear on its head. Despite appearances, this scythe is actually very soft, but becomes dangerously sharp when Absol is angered.
Since it comes to warn people of upcoming disasters, it is said to brings the disasters with it to wherever it goes. It's popular as a pet in areas prone to natual disasters because it can warn its owners of danger.
It mainly lives high up in the arctic mountain ranges playing in snow when not warning people in nearby cities.
They are somewhat rare, but their attack powers are very good. Their defense and range of attacks are not so good. According to the Pokémon movie Jirachi- Wish Maker, it only appears before a great tragedy.
Absol is a nocturnal Pokémon in the wild. It loves to sit ontop of a mountain and look at the moon. It is said that on a full moon it restores all of its energy with the moonlight.
Name Origin
The name "Absol" might mean "absence" of "sol," or sunlight, which might refer to the fact that there is no sunlight (literally) or happiness (figuratively) in a natural disaster, why it is a Dark-type and coloured black, and why it is a nocturnal Pokémon.
It may also come from the word "absolute"
Availability
Absol can be captured on Route 120 between Fortree City and Lilycove City, but it is very rare. A level 48 Absol can also be snagged in Pokémon Colosseum in Realgam Tower.
