Absol sits at the very bottom of the single-battle ladder (0.01% usage, rank 245). It leans on Super Luck with Scope Lens or Focus Sash to fish for Night Slash critical hits, but its poor bulk and middling 75 Speed make it extremely difficult to use reliably in competitive play.
Playstyle:The standard set runs Super Luck with Focus Sash (57%) or Scope Lens (17%), aiming for Night Slash critical hits. Shadow Sneak provides priority revenge killing. Its role is a high-variance glass cannon that relies heavily on luck to succeed.
Absol sees virtually no double-battle usage (near 0%). It lacks the support utility and bulk needed to function effectively in doubles, where the presence of spread moves and Fake Out pressure makes its frail build a severe liability.
