Why does absol learn perish song?

[Slaking master]

I have been try come up with a way 2 use perish song absol.I taught i had way when i taught this up

Absol@leftovers

baton pass
perish song
sword dance/calm mind
aerial ace

For about 1 hour i taught had created the great pokemon ever.Then it hit me what will stop a person from switching pokemon when i use baton pass.This absol will only work on really dumb people or on a two on two team with a pokemon that learns mean look.

Which leads 2 my questions why is perish song on absol?Has anybody found a use perish song on absol or is one those completely useless moves on pokemon?Is anyone esle piss off that it does not learn mean look?

psuedo hazing. If you they have a perish count they're going to have to switch out or die.

[Gligar_Man]

besides the fact that it used psuedohazing... i believe perishtrapping has reached a new age...

absol used perish song
opponent used '???'
come back absol, go wobbuffet
opponent cannot switch because of wobbuffets ability?

so whos gonna switch on the first turn of perish song... everybody...

[Slaking master]

Still think it should learn mean look.It would be like a reverse umbreon. I am praying that it becomes a nyc pokecenter move.Stupid gamefreak

[Gligar_Man]

heh... -_- you think after 2 moves it would live another 2? w/no healing besides rest and in 2v2 it would plain out get pwnt...

im planning to make a perish trapping team. probably in gsc though. PERISH TRAPPING MAROWAK, OH YEAH!!!!111

anyway a bunch of things learn p-song that dont have trapping moves. you could baton pass mean look to him, but i would nt do that

[Slaking master]

Maybe,Maybe not gligar man u are asuming a lot things.Yes the absol would probaly die quickly if the 2 pokes gang up on it.Then again it could have a partner that has reflect or some move like thunderwave or spore.

Oh i see what u r talking about, I meant absol would have baton pass the perish song 2 something esle .

I pwned Battle Tower with Altaria's Perish Song. With a helpful partner... something Gligar_Man suggested - Wobuffet!!! No Mean Look necessary.

It only failed when some stupid Starmie used Skill Swap, and then it switched out on the final count.

I love my Wobuffet.
