Absol is so....cool. He's awesome, and he's my ultimate pokemon.

Absol is a quadrupedal mammal-like Pokémon, resembling a wolf with feminine traits. Its dark blue to gray body is covered in white fur, with a ruff around its neck and chest, and a tuft on the top of its head adorned with a single blue-black oval. It has a cat-like face, a scythe-like tail and a sickle-shaped growth on the side of its head. Its broad, circular feet are equipped with three claws each, and spikes protrude from the heels of its hind legs and the elbows of its anterior legs.

Absol is able to predict when a natural disaster will occur, and tries to warn people when one is approaching. This often has the unfortunate effect of Absol itself being blamed for the disaster.

Absol first appeared in Jirachi: Wishmaker. The Disaster Pokémon showed up to take Jirachi back to Forina. However, Absol wasn't the true villain of the movie. It was Butler, because he wanted to forcibly extract Jirachi's power to create a Groudon.

The Disaster Pokémon also appeared in Absol-ute Disaster. The people of a town were blaming Absol for all the bad things that were happening to their town during the past month. Ash and co. (along with a boy named Nicky) went out to search whether or not the accusations were true. They found out that the Absol were actually warning the town about a flood. All of Ash's, May's and Brock's Pokémon that had long-range attacks (plus a Heracross belonging to Nicky's brother, Gordon) helped Absol move a boulder in front of oncoming torrent of water.

Drew captured and trained an Absol for the Kanto Grand Festival.

An Absol had appeared in Mutiny in the Bounty, captured by the evil Hunter J and her henchmen after Ash's Pikachu, Melodi's Gardevoir and Team Rocket's Meowth got stolen. The Absol was returned to its rightful owner after Ash, Team Rocket and Melodi reunited with their Pokémon, and after some of J's minions were arrested.

Origins?

Absol may be based on the Barghest, a monstrous black dog in English folklore. Seeing one was believed to portend imminent death or misfortune, but unlike the Barghest, Absol warns people about disasters. It may be also be based on the black cat superstition. Absol's head is modeled after a Yin-yang.

Absol's name may be derived from 物騒 bussō, dangerous, but much debate exists over the true origin of its name. One common theory is that it is a combination of ab-, a prefix meaning away/from, and sol, meaning sun. This could imply that Absol is away from the sun, reinforcing its Dark-type nature. It could also be a shortened form of "absolute", referring to the absolute nature of its species, disaster.

Yay! Absol is cool. May I join please?

I would probably travel a lot and take long naps, just because I'm too cool ;D

Which Main character should have an Absol (other than Drew) and why?
Paul, of course. An Absol would suit him very well.

Lol at first one.

It WOULD suit Paul, whom in my opinion IS a disaster in himself.

Sure, you can join DC!

BTW, maybe you could make an Absol Club banner? That is, if you still make banners.

(An Absol using a Shadow Beam (black beam) would be awesome)

YAY! I JUST FOUND A SHINY ABSOL IN DIAMOND AND PEARL!

Wish me luck!

Twinx May 4th, 2008 7:51 AM

lol yep Paul is a disaster. A beautiful disaster though ;D.

well.. I don't have time to do request banners anymore.
But I edited this old Absol banner I made that wasn't basically used.
I'll donate it to this Fan Club ^^

Naito May 4th, 2008 4:36 PM

Well yay... The fourth tag of the club... o.o

If you were an Absol, what would you do, and why?

If you see a Razor Wind aimed at your direction, that's me. That's my warning for hurricanes. Rock Smash is for Earthquakes, and there's more I wanna keep secret.

Which Main character should have an Absol (other than Drew) and why?

Paul is a train wreck of disaster.


Cynic Kaka May 4th, 2008 4:44 PM

Yay, world peace.

Charge Beam to warn of Terrorism....lol

Swords Dance
Sucker Punch
Psycho Cut
Rock Smash / X-Scissor

Swords Dance sets the disasterious sweeper up, and it all depends on what the opponent does next. Rock Smash easily takes cares of most Steels and Normals, and Psycho Cut kills Fighting, Posion (thus annihilating a Toxicroak... If it's slower). Sucker Punch has +1 Priority, so I can get a quick hit in if the person is foolish enough to stay in with a Pokemon that surely won't withstand such power. If I'm not sure, I'll just go for Sucker Punch since nothing is immune to Dark and I might have a chance of KOing whatever gets switched in to Absol.

Cynic Kaka May 5th, 2008 5:00 PM

Brilliant! I like the way you think!
