Meowth (ニャース, Nyāsu, Nyarth in Japanese language versions) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise. It is a Pokémon that comes out of a Poké Ball.

Character description

Meowth is one of the original 151 Pokémon that appeared in Pokémon Red & Blue. A player can find a Meowth in the wild in various grass areas. In the advance generation of Pokémon games, Mewoth gained the Pick Up ability which allows Meowth to pick up random items while the trainer is traveling. Meowth most notable role is in Pokémon anime. Meowth appeared as one of the grunts on Team Rocket. Mewoth is a unique Pokémon as he can talk the human language. Meowth likes to scheme with Team Rocket and causes havoc on Ash and his friends. Meowth also envies the attention that a Persian recieves from his boss Giovanni. Meowth's signature move is Pay Day.

In Super Smash Bros.

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Meowth makes an appearance as a Pokémon that appears out of a Poké Ball in Super Smash Bros. Meowth will use Pay Day as his attack. Meowth will jump in the air, scattering coins in all directions. Any character caught in the radius of this attack will take damage. The attack radius of Pay Day is short so it can be easy to avoid. However, you can become trapped in the barrage of coins. It's possible to take 30% damage in this attack, like that of a Bob-omb. Meowth's attack does not harm the summoner.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

As a trophy

Meowth returns in Super Smash Bros. Melee but not as a Poké Ball Pokémon. Instead, he has been relegated to a role as a trophy. This trophy is unlocked after getting the "Smash Blue" trophies (from the All-Star single-player mode) for all 25 playable characters. Interestingly, his discription has nothing to do with his actual behavior in the Pokémon games, but refers to a short animation created to showcase the GameCube's graphics. It more so relates to the Meowth in the anime. The trophy description is as follows:

Meowth

This...is Meowth's dream. Meowth strides all over the globe scattering invitations to other pokemon, insisting they come to "Meowth's Party". At this wonderful party, guests are packed in like sardines as Meowth climbs up the stage with its faithful guitar. It strikes a chord, pauses, and then rocks their world!

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Meowth reappears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a Poké Ball Pokémon again, with roughly the same effect as he did in Super Smash Bros. This time, Meowth throws a barrage of coins at the opponent instead quickly of scattering coins in all directions.

As a trophy

Meowth

A Scratch Cat Pokémon. It's one of the most famous Pokémon and very fond of things that sparkle--the gold medallion on its head could be seen as an indicator of this infatuation. There are many Pokémon that resemble cats, but Meowth is the only one that can use Pay Day to receive coins at the end of battle. It evolves into Persian.
