Absol Mega Z is a Mega Z form of Absol, featured in Pokémon Legends: Z-A materials. It's listed as Dark/Ghost and retains Magic Bounce as its defining ability.
Type: Dark / Ghost
Abilities:
- Magic Bounce: Reflects many status moves back at the opponent (ability is listed across its ability slots).
Physical Characteristics:
- A dark, slate/charcoal-bodied Absol variant (visually reads much darker than standard Mega Absol)
- A long, helmet-like head crest that drapes forward, giving it a "masked" silhouette
- Crimson, plume-like "wings" flaring from its back/side, adding a sharp, high-contrast accent
- Red eyes that emphasize its ominous, foresight-driven theme
- Note: some datasets still classify its color as "White" (a categorical tag), even though the form's artwork/sprite reads dark
Behavior and Habitat:
- Habitat: Mountain
- Absol's lore carries through here: it appears before disasters and is often misunderstood as a bad omen, when it's really warning people
In Battle:
- Base stats: HP 65 / Atk 154 / Def 60 / SpA 75 / SpD 60 / Spe 151 (Total 565)
- Weak to: Fairy
- Resists: Poison
- Immune to: Normal, Fighting, Psychic
- Common moves: Night Slash, Knock Off, Shadow Claw, Swords Dance, Future Sight, Taunt, Detect
- Plays like a speedy pressure piece that also punishes status/setup lines because of Magic Bounce
Evolution:
- A temporary Mega Z transformation of Absol (listed as a separate form)
- Guide materials describe obtaining an Absolite Z tied to defeating "Rogue Mega Absol Z"
Interesting Facts:
- This form is explicitly listed as Dark/Ghost in guide coverage and in game-dex style references
- The design leans hard into an "eclipse" vibe: dark body + red plume, while keeping Absol's disaster-warning identity intact
