Absol thread

>>29692471
I'll always love Absol, even though it's never going to be good. It'd be the perfect companion pokemon to have out and walking beside you.
why didn't they make it good
the cry is cool and the overall design too but the horn gives me autism
>>29693915
>>29694101
To think, all Absol needed was maybe like 40-60 more base stats (something around 510-520) and it would have been amazing.
The biggest problem is that it's a slow glass cannon. Mega Absol fixed this but it's forever crippled by only being really usable (competitively) when in Mega form.
>>29693908
and the opposite of cat
Dunno why I started loving Absol but I always have to have one. Anyone know if Absol's gonna be in the new game?

Its mega form was great until they introduced diancie and sableye in the same gen. Its niche was lost and it's back to the bottom of the NU pile. Absol never stops getting cucked, the only gen that seemed hopeful for it was 4 when it got a huge movepool boost and the physical/special split was a huge buff.
It's pretty good, but

>>29694245
Yes. It's on the third island though, so it's a bit lategame.

>>29694388
Yeeeeeee! Don't care! As long as I can get my Absol I'll be happy!
It's a fucking mountain-goat
>>29694477
I always thought it was supposed to be based off a Sphinx and that's why "cat"
>>29694107
What's wrong with the horn? It's supposed to make the head look like a yin yang symbol.
I'm gonna breed the Absol I've had since 2013 and transfer the lv. 1 kitten (puppy?) to Moon as soon as I can to replace my starter

>Bottom of the NU pile
Base Absol is pretty good in RU and has one of the best priority moves in the tier outside of Fletchinder's acrobatics.

Bullshit. Give me proof

It's in my top 10 list of "Pokemon I'd want to fluff"
>>29694596

enjoy waiting until january
I'm sad that I don't have enough fluffy Absol
>>29695609
intelligent enough to be able to actively warn people of approaching disaster, which implies the ability to think about the future and that they may see benefit in keeping the humans around them alive.
other than that, the anime often shows pokémon understanding human speech and are able to exchange abstract concept between other pokémon via speech.
i'd say they have a grasp of human-level abstract concepts while they are dependent on interaction and contact with humans to bring out their mental abilities to human-level.
mind that we cant really prove or disprove anything here unless GF explicitly says so.

>>29695609
you don't even have to go into the "what if..." domain like >>29695788, you could just say it's from the mystery dungeon universe and get on with it
I want to bury my face in Absol's chest fluff and take a big sniff of her scent.
>>29692471
absol is not the disaster pokémon
it's the slut pokémon

But Anon, Absol poops from there.
I caught an Adamant one in my Emerald run. I already have it EV trained, and now I'm just waiting for SM to IV it.
Why are these threads always an absol-ute disaster
>>29696998
because you dont contribute
>cat
I want to hold Absol's paw!
Is Absol the least hated furry-mon on here? These threads don't seem to get as much shitposting as others do.
>>29694813
>no
>>29699209
One or two chucklefucks sexualizing an imaginary dog doesn't make it a furry-mon, or else half the Pokedex is for furries. The amount of hate a Pokemon gets here is related to how popular or frequestly posted it is, and Absol barely has a presence on /vp/.
>>29701523
popular things get all the hate, this is pretty much a true fact
>>29694845
adequate meme
You've all been using the same Shadow Absol all the way back from Colosseum, surely? Gotta have that supreme edge, y'know.
>>29703581
if that's the case, Shadow Teddiursa is the fucking edgiest of all
>>29694551
I'm a grown man and I didn't fucking notice that. brb gonna go chug some drano
When I saw the Jirachi movie as a kid I thought he was the shit. He kinda lost his luster once I actually started playing the games years later, so it is what it is. Still a cool mon though.
>>29694551
huh shit, now that I know that it feels a lot less autistic
>>29704259
Some conhon-OC
its kinda nice to see it more realistic, though....
is it more dog or cat?
>>29704405
I could swear I've seen this posted here before, maybe I'm imagining things
>>29704521
i did post this in an absol-thread before.

Aside from the eeveelutions, it's my favorite Pokémon.

That's bullshit

It always came off as a dog to me, specifically a Samoyed.
>>29692471
yes
>mega isn't part fairy
Is it not pink enough for that?
>>29694477
it's a frog
>cat
Absol is a goat.
>>29703581
When I played Colosseum for the first time, I'd never heard or seen Absol before so when I encountered the Shadow Absol I was convinced it was some new legendary and I used my Master Ball on it.
>>29711909
I used to think that Absol was a pseudo legendary because all I heard about it at the time was that it was a "Disaster Pokemon"
>tfw Absol became my favorite Pokémon since I saw it in gen 3.
I remember the first time I caught one. Level 27 female straight from the wild. All these mega band wagoners can go fuck yourselves. And so can furfags.
>>29692471

>>29693874
What's an "animal"?
>>29695064
I want to cuddle an Absol!
This is twice now that there is an absol thread up before and during major leaks. A bit of a funny coincidence.
>>29717142
Absol is supposed to herald disasters after all
>>29693874
Im not sure if shes happy or confused.
>>29705133
Fearow is a very strange Pokemon to be in the top 20.

Actually I might replace the Normal crit move with a Dark crit.
>>29692471
Yes
>>29700888

Of course I love absol, she's the best!
I wonder if my Absol would warn a Pokemon just before a Future Sight attack or Perish Song was at turn 0.

>>29729487
>X-Scissor
>high crit chance
Doesn't that move just have the standard crit chance? Or are you referring to the item and ability boosting its crit chance?
>>29730799
Huh, well will you look at that. For some reason I always thought it had a high crit chance
But with Super Luck + Scope lens it kind of does get a higher crit chance, yeahGreat, now I don't know if I should switch it to Slash or Shadow Claw
>>29732322
Shadow Claw may be better because it actually is super effective on some types unlike Slash. But Dark and Ghost are super effective on the exact same types, so having a Dark type attack already covers those types. In that case, Slash might actually be better now that I think about it, but I'm not entirely sure.
I don't know much about competitive battling, though, so you should take this with a grain of salt.
