Template:Absol Absol (Japanese: アブソル Abusoru) is a Dark-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

Biology

Physiology

Absol has a dark blue face with a short catlike muzzle, a small black triangular nose, a scythe-like tail, and sickle-shaped growth on the right side of its head. Some believe this to be an abnormal development of its right ear, but it is actually a horn, as said in its PokéDex entry. Despite its appearance, this horn is actually very soft to the touch, particularly whenever Absol is not tense or angry.

Behavior

Like owls, it seems to have one ear point upward and one point downward, supposedly to hear the exact location a sound is coming from. Absol is a very good-natured Pokémon that warns people of up-coming disasters by appearing before them. When it is not warning people in nearby cities, it spends its time up in the mountains. They have a snowy-white coat that is very soft to the touch.

Special abilities

Absol plays a role in Red and Blue Rescue Team where it saves you and your partner from Articuno's wrath after you defeat it in battle. Then Absol joins you on your journey to meet Ninetales.

Evolution

Absol can not evolve, however it can be Mega Evolved during battle in Pokemon X and Y.

Trivia

Name origin

The name "Absol" could mean "absence" of "sol," or sunlight, which may refer to the fact that there is no sunlight (literaly) or happiness (figuratively) in a natural disaster, explains why it is a Dark-type, and also why it is a nocturnal Pokémon. Another possible etymology comes from the word "absolve", i.e. Absol is absolved of any responsibility once the people have been warned. The name could also come from "absolution". Its name could also mean "absolute" because white is an absolute color, and in the game the dark blue areas appear black, also an absolute.
