[[Category:Normal-type Pokémon]][[Category:Generation I Pokémon]] [[Category:Yellow Pokémon]] Meowth (Japanese: ニャース Nyaasu) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. Because Meowth has a cat-like appearance, its name is a pun on the word: "meow".
Appearance
Meowth has two white whiskers on each side of its oval shaped face and two hairs sticking up on either side of the coin-like gem on its forehead, and highly resembles a cat. Meowth's tail and feet are cream colored like the rest of it, but they are brown at the end. It has small paw pads undersides on its feet and toes. It is much like a Maneki Neko, a toy of Japanese descent known for bobbing its arm and hand up and down.
Special abilities
Meowth has the ability Pickup or the ability Technician. Pickup allows Meowth to pick up items while the player is walking. Technician powers up non-effective moves. Meowth and Persian are the only Pokémon that can learn Pay Day (equation is Lv/2 multiplied by 10). If Meowth has Pickup, it will have Limber when it's a Persian.
In the anime, Team Rocket's Meowth is capable of human speech (a skill he learned while living on the street of Hollywood to impress a female Meowth named Meowzie).
Evolution
Meowth evolves into Persian at level 28.
