Description
This original Pokémon Trading Card Game card features the Disaster Pokémon, Absol, as a Darkness-type Basic Pokémon. The card showcases an atmospheric and stoic illustration by Takumi Wada, depicting Absol standing atop a rocky peak during a heavy rainstorm. In the background, jagged mountains are illuminated by flashes of lightning, reflecting the Pokémon’s ability to sense impending natural disasters.
As a Basic Pokémon, Absol offers immediate utility and efficient attacks. Its first move, Allure, requires a single Colorless energy and allows the player to draw multiple cards, providing essential setup and hand-thinning during the opening stages of a match. Its secondary attack, Dark Cutter, requires both Darkness and Colorless energy to deal a consistent amount of damage to the opponent’s Active Pokémon.
This version is a Common rarity, identified by the circle symbol. The card includes standard gameplay statistics, including a weakness to Grass-type attacks and a specific retreat cost. It serves as a reliable foundational attacker for Darkness-themed decks, rewarding players who value early-game consistency and efficient resource management.
