I'd have to say absol.
I was never one for umbreon, especially when it was mainly good at defenses.
Absol has high attack for a one form pokemon, and is pretty good.
and i never liked mighteyana that much.
 
Umbreon does his intended job most successfully in my opinion, being a very competent trap passer. Absol is too slow to sweep and to frail to tank, while mightyena is just a crappy pokemon.
 
Umbreon is the most overrated piece of garbage to become a Pokemon in my opinion. Absol, however, is one of the greatest UU sweepers, and can actually work in OU. After a single SD, it's Sucker Punch OHKO's Garchomp; Garchomp lives Explosions from things like Heatran. It can pull off a fantastic Mixed Set, 2HKOing the likes of Steelix and Skarm who would otherwise wall it. All in all, Absol is vastly superior to the other dark types, and Mightyena is just...Shameful.
 
Umbreon's shiny form is only beaten by the normal appearance of the Pokémon known as Farfetch'd. Absol reminds me of the reaper for some reason I still can't quite figure out. Umbreon wins this poll easily.
 
Umbreon can tank all it wants; I don't care.
I despise Eevee.

Therefore, Absol and its above-average ingame use win. =D
 
My vote would have to go towards Umbreon. Not because I love Eevee and its evolutions, but because some of the moves it can learn(counting TM moves) are fairly good, while also trying to have a good defense, to try and withstand fighting type moves, which it is weak against.
 
Absol, It looks like a Pokemon Alicia Keys! its just feminine and has a red shiny form and also has a beast STAB CBand SuckerPunch
 
Absol Or Umbreon.
Attcker or Staller.

Thats hard. I like both.
 
I would have to choose Umbreon simply because I think it looks the nicest.
Umbreon seems to be the epitome of darkness with it's jet black fur and mysterious demeanor. Plus, one must give props to the Moonlight Pokémon because it was actually one of the first dark-types to ever be introduced into the series. So many people wanted Umbreon that it seemed to take on a diety-like role, and going with conformity, it has been my favorite dark-type ever since.
(You can't mess with the originals...)
