>>53780287what even is Absol supposed to be
i've heard people claiming it's a dog, a cow, a cat, or whatever
according to bulbapedia it's based on the Bai Ze, a beast depicted with one or two horns and a white body
https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Absol_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Triviahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bai_Zeand as for japanese depictions
>The common Japanese image generally depicts the hakutaku as a "cow or monstrous cat creature with nine eyes and six horns, arranged in sets of three and two on both its flanks and its man-like face. It is also commonly depicted as having the body of a lion and eight eyesso the japanese version of the myth depicts it as catlike, and Absol's face is based on a Sphynx, a half man half cat creature from greek mythology that also has bird wings (which are represented in Absol's mega form)
