Hi,

Greetings to you!

Validation Rules require you to write the error condition always. You need to throw an error when the checkbox is checked (based on picklist value). 
AND( 
    OR(
       ISPICKVAL(Picklist_Custom__c, "ABX"), 
       ISPICKVAL(Picklist_Custom__c, "PQF")
    ), 
    Chekbox_Custom__c = TRUE
)

I hope it helps you.

Kindly let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future. It will help to keep this community clean.

Thanks and Regards,
Khan Anas
