How to Use Midnight Slash

Turn Battles Around

Pokemon UNITE - Absol Hitting Multiple Targets with Unite Move

Midnight Slash only affects a small area, so try to catch grouped enemies to maximize the damage output. Moreover, though activation does not require a target, it is best to take a second to to aim the move so you won't be hitting air.

Disengage from a Losing Fight

Pokemon UNITE - Absol Being Invulnerable during Unite Move

Activating Midnight Slash allows Absol to phases out of view during the fight, making it almost impossible to hit it once the move goes off. This gives you a split-second opportunity to disjoint certain enemy attacks and moves, as well as disengage for just alittle bit for a counter attack.
