Absol
Tip: Moves with a double border on their right get STAB. Levels that appear in bold are below Absol's evolution level. If you want to teach your Pokémon a Level Up move that its level does not appear in bold, then press B while it evolves; you can always evolve it later. In case you want to teach it a Level Up move that it has forgotten, you can visit the move re-learner in Fallarbor Town (Hoenn) or Two Island (Kanto).
