Line 144: Line 144:
Meowth has an ambitious, conniving, and idealistic personality. He has made it his life goal to please his boss, {{an|Giovanni}}, and will stop at nothing to capture or steal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, especially [[Ash's Pikachu]], which he has been pursuing since ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency]]''.

Meowth is a characteristically jealous individual, particularly towards other cat Pokémon such as [[Giovanni's Persian]] and [[Matori]]'s own {{TP|Matori|Meowth}}. He often clashes with them because they are equally as smug and conniving as him. Many of his personality traits are typical for other Meowth, where they have an affinity for affection, but he has an eye for sparkling objects. Unlike most other Pokémon, who are not truly evil and will only commit evil deeds when ordered to do so, as stated by [[Jessie's Ekans]] in ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]'', Meowth is both perfectly capable of and willing to commit evil deeds without the aid of others. He is motivated by self-interest and greed, but also enjoys the thrill of taking advantage of others.

He is motivated by self-interest and greed, but also enjoys the thrill of taking advantage of others.


Despite his seemingly outgoing nature, Meowth also has a contemplative inner side that is not seen as often. In one of his image songs, [[Meowth's Song]], and in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', he is a philosopher. Meowth comforted [[Ash's Chimchar]] in ''[[DP053|Tears For Fears!]]'' and even expressed some admiration for {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}}. On a few occasions, Meowth has become stranded with Pikachu, and during these times, the two work together fairly well. Pikachu distrusts Meowth, but Meowth is more willing to let go of the past and work together. Usually, by the end of these episodes, Meowth will betray Pikachu once he and Pikachu find [[Jessie]] and [[James]].
