I have enough XP to raise strengh in one point, so I might able to have a good strengh. Since you mentioned Perish Song doesnt affect Kogeki, it is possible for him participate in the battle without the danger of Perish Song?
When you say about idea, you mentioned like a combination of Hidden Power Water and Fire in the mountain? Hidden Power Fire might not work on Absol, but it can work in something else.
And since we are out of the place where we were, is the effects of Sunny Day still in effect? Is Susano Water moves now in effect again?
Sheer Force is just super duper busted, particularly after a Swords Dance. Absol's supposed to be tanky and annoying, but raw damage strats don't care about anything but the tankiest of enemies.
Kogeki could fight as well, and he wouldn't have to worry about Perish Song, yeah.
Depending on the rolls, that might trigger an avalanche, yeah. But remember: that won't come without risk if that is what you do. Also remember that Absol is at the top of the initiative, and can thus act before anyone not using priority moves.
Sunny Day will still be active. Perish Song hasn't gone away, so the weather won't change either. Susano'o could still use Water moves, they just won't be as effective due to the sunlight.

Indeed, especially when comboed with a Life Orb or any other Attribue Modifer Item. SF essentially gives the user + 2 Special/Strength if they use Effect Moves exclusively, which in a game where even the small increment of a number can mean big things later on. Download is similarly powerful in Pokerole, as is Reckless or any other Ability that boosts Damage Dice. A particularly interesting combo I like is Rock Head and Life Orb in Pokerole, as by the rules of the corebook Rock Head would nullify the Recoil Damage of the LO, essentially giving the Pokemon a free + 2 Damage on all their Moves on top of really powerful Moves that are normally balanced by their Recoil (if they have any).
If Kogeki has a Pokemon that can raise the earth, they could create an icebreak of sorts to prevent another avalanche from insta-KOing/sweeping away everyone, but that in of itself could set off another avalanche if things go wrong....
Perish Song is a pain in the arse, but it takes 4 Encounters to proc, and nothing's stopping you from simply switching out your current Pokemon immediately at the start of the Round to null the 'Status' and keep pressure onto it. Heck, you could possibly get a more favorable INI for one of your new Pokemon, or bring in a Pokemon that has Priority to partially undermine their lead advantage. Don't be afraid to switch things up if you need to gain an advantage, unless you really want to horde XP for your given Pokemon already out.
Like the wind, I come and go as I please... but I am always there to provide a comforting breeze.
