First off, gotta give credit for the subtle-yet-stylish Ying Yang design of the head. See it? That blade is the black part, and then the hair is the white half, you get it now.
Now, Absol is a Dark-type, and it is pretty much the epitome of the dark-n-edgy stylings many of these Pokemon have. It dips dangerously close to what researchers are now calling, "Emo Faggotry". It's seriously one bead or piercing away from being one of those Deviantart fursonas based off a fusion of a Kingdom Hearts character and one of the lions from Lion King, except a wolf instead. You know exactly what I mean. It wouldn't surprise me if there are 50 million drawings of Absol as different furry characters, or kissing Sephiroth, or whatever, but you know what? I don't give a damn.
It's people like that who take honestly cool things (katanas, trenchcoats, basically any aspect of The Matrix) and corrupt them into shells of their former cool-ness. And I'm sick of it. Absol has a blade for a tail and a blade coming out of its head. It looks like its ability to mess a bitch up are inversely proportional to its ability to give a shit.
So I'm taking Absol back, asswipes. Absol is one cool bitch, and just because some losers agree take it too far doesn't diminish that. Well, maybe a little.
Overall: 9/10
