Meowth (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Meowth is attracted to round and shiny objects and has the unique ability to produce coins using its [[signature move]], {{m|Pay Day}}. Meowth and its evolved forms are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Pay Day by leveling up. Being nocturnal, it is known to wander about city streets at night and pick up anything that sparkles, including loose change. Upon finding a sparkling object, its eyes will glitter and the coin on its forehead will shine brightly. It shares this intrigue with {{p|Murkrow}}, with whom it often fights with for objects and prey. Meowth is a playful but fickle Pokémon with the capacity for human-like intelligence, with at least {{MTR|one member}} of the species teaching itself how to speak. Meowth tends to live in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas}}. As mentioned in [[Pokémon Sleep]], Meowth is known to sleep with the coins it collects.<ref>''[[Pokémon Sleep|Sleep Style Dex]]''</ref>

=====Galarian Meowth=====

Pokémon caught in [[Generation I]] must be traded to a [[Generation II]] game in order for a held item to appear. Meowth was available to be traded for in [[My Pokémon Ranch]] only as part of an online event.

* Meowth may be considered a counterpart of {{p|Mankey}}. Both of them are {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}} who evolve into their evolved forms at level 28. Meowth is exclusive to {{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Blue|s}}, {{game3|Gold and Silver|Silver|s}}, {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|SoulSilver|s}}, and [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go Eevee!]]; while Mankey is exclusive to Red, Gold, HeartGold, and Let's Go, Pikachu!. Also, in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, [[Yancy]] will trade the {{player}} a Meowth if the player is male, and [[Curtis]] will trade Mankey if the player is female. Additionally, both seem to have a similar color scheme.
