Flavor Text |
 | Sun | Long ago, superstitions were spread about it, saying it brought disaster. This fed a hatred of it, and it was driven deep into the mountains. |
Moon | Although it’s said to bring disaster, in actuality, this Pokémon possesses a calm disposition and warns people of any crises that loom. | Ultra Sun | The only thing unlucky about Absol is its appearance. It protects fields and warns people of disaster, so one ought to be grateful for it. | Ultra Moon | The elderly call it the disaster Pokémon and detest it, but interest in its power to predict disasters is on the rise. |  | Sun | When this Pokémon whips the winglike fur on its back as though beating its wings, it sends an intimidating aura flying at its opponents. |
Moon | As the energy of Mega Evolution fills it, its fur bristles. What you see on its back are not true wings, and this Pokémon isn’t able to fly. | Ultra Sun | Normally, it dislikes fighting, so it really hates changing to this form for battles. | Ultra Moon | It converts the energy from Mega Evolution into an intimidating aura. Fainthearted people expire from shock at the sight of it. |
