Absol
 
kinda wanna use an absol, but don't know how with my team. i want to use him as a baton passer, but does he have any damaging moves?

so far i'm thinking:

Baton Pass
Swords Dance
Double-Edge
Shadow Ball

?

item:blackglasses/leftovers/machobrace

toxic/batonpass/future sight/curse/perish song/swords dance/calm mind
slash/double edge
shadowball/thunder/blizzard/fireblast
aerial ace/waterpulse/etc.

that wasn't much help. why have baton pass if he doesn't have a stat boosting move?

He has a point, usually I dont bother with breeding to get moves but if its an absol I might try it out!!! I dont know about this stuff so Ill just get some advice at the breeders corner

curse is a stat boosting move it boost attack,defense,SP.attack,and SP.defense but lowers speed.it works differently for ghost.

2nd time already, do some basic research. Once is fine, but 2 times in a row about such basic elements of the game...? Not a good sign.

Just stick with your original one. The only possible changes are...

-swords dance
-double edge/return (if you don't like recoils)
-shadow ball
-HP physical/quick attack/baton pass/perish song

Yes you can just use perish song without a mean look. It forces a switch eventually, stopping Snorlax to spend time cursing up and so on. It's still not too practical as it's very situational.

alright i'll go with Baton Pass/Swords Dance/Shadow Ball/Return, thanks.
