Absol made its main series debut in ''[[AG107|Absol-ute Disaster]]''. The people of a town were blaming Absol for all of the bad things that were happening to their town during the past month.

In the original timeline of ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', a {{m|Hypnosis|hypnotized}} [[Damos]] commanded four Absol to attack {{OBP|Arceus|M12}} with {{m|Shock Wave}}.

In ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', [[Astrid]] used an Absol that can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Absol against [[Alain]] and {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}, but it was defeated.

In ''[[XY028|The Bonds of Evolution!]]'', {{OBP|Magnus|XY028}} used an Absol to battle [[Diantha]] and her {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}}, but it was soon defeated by Gardevoir's {{m|Moonblast}}.

It then helps Ginji and {{OBP|Mudkip|Ginji's Rescue Team}} in their battle against {{p|Articuno}}. It appears again in ''[[GRT6|Tears and Emotions - It's the Final Chapter!]]'' where it, along with several other Pokémon, help Ginji, Mudkip, [[Team A.C.T.|Tyranitar, Charizard, and Alakazam]] defeat {{p|Groudon}}.
