Absol is not legendary, and is possible to have it by a reaaaaaly rare quest (trow a curve ball with excellent)

other thing, mythical Pokémon are legendary, in japonese the legendaries are diveded in 3 categories:


 * Legend Pokémon (Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Raikou, Entei, Suicune, Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Latias, Latios)


 * Myth Pokémon (Mewtwo, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza)


 * Mythical Pokémon (Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys)

Legend Pokémon are the weaker legendaries, they are allowed to be used in Battle Tree, all VGCs, ecc...

Myth Pokémon are the powerfull legendaries, they are forbidden to be used in Battle Tree and similar and in some VGCs

Mythical Pokémon are legendaries that you can have just with events (exept for Deoxys and Phione) and are forbidden in all VGCs, Battle Tree ecc... (in the lore this Pokémons was undiscovered before the Pokédex project begin)
