Just some time after Tyson began his {{pkmn|journey}} in [[Hoenn]], he first met Meowth when it was in a pack of its kind in a forest near [[Ever Grande City]] on a snowy night. Their leader was a {{p|Persian}}, Meowth's evolved form. Meowth had a fierce {{pkmn|battle}} with the leader and was defeated by a combination of {{m|Fury Swipes}} and {{m|Shadow Ball}}. After the battle, the pack left the Meowth behind, abandoned. Tyson saw this and brought the hurt {{pkmn|category|Scratch Cat Pokémon}} to a cabin he was traveling to. In the cabin, he helped Meowth return to full health. As the soles of Meowth's feet were painful to stand on, Tyson gave it boots to help it walk again. Meowth then joined Tyson's [[Party|team]] and became one of his strongest Pokémon. | |||
In ''[[AG125|Like a Meowth to a Flame]]'', Meowth rescued {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} from a flock of {{p|Murkrow}}. It [[Walking Pokémon|followed Tyson outside of its Poké Ball]] during the [[Ever Grande Conference]] in this and following episodes. Later, it battled with {{TRT}} after they stole the flame of {{p|Moltres}}. Team Rocket's {{MTR}} was shown to have a rivalry with the Meowth in boots after it tried to take back the torch from the trio. It was able to defeat Team Rocket's Meowth and finished them with Thunderbolt, blasting them off. | In ''[[AG125|Like a Meowth to a Flame]]'', Meowth rescued {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} from a flock of {{p|Murkrow}}.

In ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]'', Meowth had another battle with Team Rocket after they trapped Ash and Morrison while they were racing. The Meowth in boots defeats Team Rocket with Iron Tail, sending them crashing in some trees. Tyson and Meowth went with Ash, his friends, and Morrison to the Pokémon Center where Morrison was able to register for the Pokémon League. Tyson and Meowth left the center after a brief conversation with Ash and the others, and were seen meditating outside. | In ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]'', Meowth had another battle with Team Rocket after they trapped Ash and Morrison while they were racing.

When it was Tyson's turn to battle in the preliminaries, he chose Meowth while his opponent, [[Vivica]], chose Persian. During the battle, Meowth became very determined to defeat Persian due to its rivalry with the Persian of its previous pack. Despite the fact that Vivica's Persian had the early advantage, Meowth was able to defeat it. Although Persian was [[Fainting|unable to continue battling]], Meowth refused to stop attacking and Tyson had to hold it back, [[recall]]ing the Pokémon before it was able to harm Persian further. This made Team Rocket's Meowth soften towards Tyson's Meowth since they had the same hatred of their evolved form. | [[File:Tyson and Meowth.png|thumb|left|220px|Meowth and Tyson]] | ||

During the battle, its speed complemented the power of its claws, making it a difficult opponent to beat. Ash ended up having further difficulties as not only did Meowth's {{m|Thunderbolt}} work as a defense every time {{AP|Pikachu}} tried to use {{type|Electric}} [[Move|attacks]] against it, Meowth was able to use {{m|Iron Tail}} to counter with Pikachu's Iron Tail, and {{m|Double Team}} could be used to dodge speedy attacks such as {{m|Quick Attack}}. After a long battle, both sides started to feel worn out, but refused to give up. However, Pikachu fell to the ground in the end, leaving Tyson and Meowth as the winners. After the battle, Team Rocket's Meowth was more proud to be a Meowth than ever before thanks to Tyson's Meowth's successful battle against Pikachu. | ||
