{{ | {{iw|Bulbapedia|Meowth}} is a Normal-type [[List of Pokémon|Pokémon]] introduced in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}}, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #052 as the "Scratch Cat Pokémon". It evolves into {{iw|bulbapedia|Persian}} starting at level 28. It and its evolution received Alolan Forms in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation VII}}. It also received a Galarian Form in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation VIII}}, in which it evolves into {{iw|bulbapedia|Perrserker}} instead. In {{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Sword and Shield}}, a special pre-order Meowth can transform into its {{iw|bulbapedia|Gigantamax}} form, during which it can use the move {{iw|bulbapedia|G-Max Gold Rush|move}}. It is easily recognized by the coin on its forehead and is known to collect similar shiny objects. It is especially notable among the general public for being a part of the [[Team Rocket]] trio in the ''Pokémon'' anime series along with Jessie and James, appearing in almost all of its episodes. In the National Pokédex, it is registered as #052. | ||

Meowth can be summoned by a [[Poké Ball]]. It uses Pay Day as its attack: Meowth hovers 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, fighters 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 can be summoned by a [[Poké Ball]]. It uses Pay Day as its attack: Meowth hovers in the place it was summoned, scattering coins in all directions.

Meowth's trophy is unlocked after getting the "Smash Blue" trophies (from the [[All-Star Mode|All-Star]] single-player mode) for all 26 playable characters. This is the only game where Meowth isn't a Poké Ball Pokémon. | ||

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 utilizing the eponymous song which had been the anime's ending theme a few months before. 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 approximately 300% if [[smash attack]]s are used on the trapped victim. | Meowth returns to its role as a Poké Ball Pokémon in ''[[Super Smash Bros.
