'''Meowth''' ({{ja|ニャース|Nyāsu}}, ''Nyarth'') is a fictional creature in the {{uv|Pokémon}} media franchise. It is a Normal-type [[List of Pokémon|Pokémon]] (#052 in the National Pokédex) that evolves into Persian. It is a catlike Pokémon that is easily recognized by the coin on its forehead, and is known to collect similar shiny objects. In ''Smash Bros.'', Meowth uses Pay Day, its signature move that attacks with coins. | |||

However, unlike the aforementioned three characters, no definitive official source has ever been found that proves Meowth was ever planned to be included as a playable character. | ||

Meowth instead makes an appearance as a Pokémon that appears out of a [[Poké Ball]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros]].'' Meowth will use Pay Day as its attack. Meowth will hover in the place it was summoned, scattering coins in all directions. Any character caught in the radius of this attack will take damage. When the coins hit characters, they also make [[Mario (universe)|Mario]]-coin sounds. The attack radius of Pay Day is short so it can be easy to avoid. However, the player can become trapped in the barrage of coins, taking up to 50% damage. Meowth can also deal significant damage with its body, which has much higher [[knockback]] scaling, so it may [[KO]] foes after they are hit with the coins. Meowth's attack does not harm the summoner. | |||

Meowth's trophy is atypical | Meowth's trophy is atypical in respect to other Pokémon trophies. Instead of describing its behaviour in the ''Pokémon'' series, the trophy instead references ''{{s|bulbapedia|Meowth's Party}}'', a technical demo designed to demonstrate the GameCube's graphics. Reflecting this, the trophy depicts Meowth holding the red and white guitar featured from the demo. | ||

Meowth returns to its role as a Poké Ball Pokémon in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', using the same attack it used in ''Super Smash Bros.'', but in a slightly different fashion. This time, Meowth throws a barrage of coins left or right in the opponent's direction instead of quickly scattering coins in all directions, though it will turn to face the opponent that is closest to it.

In addition, falling from above onto Meowth will cause the victim to be locked into the rush of coins and thus take heavy damage, allowing a maximum of approximate 300% if [[smash attack]]s are used on the trapped victim. | ||
