Artwork of Absol from Pokémon GO Absol

Absol is a pure Dark type, Tier 3 Raid Boss, and so, its weaknesses include strong Bug, Fairy, and Fighting Pokémon. You cannot earn Mega Absol Energy from normal Absol raids.

Absol can be caught with the following Combat Power after being defeated in Raids:

  • From 1370 CP to 1443 CP, with no weather boost
  • From 1712 CP to 1805 CP with Fog weather boost

Absol isn’t too bulky, so most trainers can solo it without much effort. That said, 2-3 trainers are sufficient in general. This write-up will serve as a comprehensive guide to successfully beating Absol Raids.
