ID help: eggplant shaped avocado?

[funlul]

Does anyone recognize this avocado variety? All fruits are shaped like eggplant (?), received them overripe, dark thin skin, very creamy flesh.

[funlul]

Apparently it could be mexicola grande, with edible skin and all.
The only thing is, the harvest season is usually winter, and it's already May!

I have this variety grafted and looks like I may have fruits for next season. Actually, my friend alleges he gets 2 crops on the gigantic mother tree, July and January respectively. Anyways, will see.

That's an interesting looking avo.  We've got a few here that look somewhat similar but none that seems an exact match.  I have attached a link for Ken Love's "Big Island Avocados" -- http://bigislandnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/AvocadoPoster.jpg

I think the shape is just an odd seedling thing. Other characteristics such as paper-thin edible skin speaks more about its origin.

Most likely a seedling... Where did your friend get it?

[funlul]

I assume it's a seedling tree.
Tree is gigantic. Very difficult to pick fruits from. Lots of fallen fruits when I visited my friend, and considering the thin skin its chances against squirrels are slim.
