Meowth DeltaHolon Phantoms #71 Pokémon Card

Meowth, the Scratch Cat Pokémon, is a Normal-type Pokémon known for its love of shiny objects and its unique ability to learn to speak human language, a trait most famously displayed by Team Rocket's Meowth in the anime. Introduced in Generation I, Meowth quickly became a fan favorite due to its prominent role alongside Jessie and James. Its natural habitat often includes urban areas, where it can easily find discarded treasures. Meowth is nocturnal, often roaming the streets at night in search of coins or other valuable items, which it then hoards. Its diet typically consists of small prey and human food scraps. Meowth evolves into Persian starting at level 28. In the games, Meowth is often encountered early on and is notable for its signature move "Pay Day," which yields extra money after battle. Culturally, Meowth represents the allure of wealth and the mischievous side of Pokémon, often serving as comic relief but also demonstrating surprising depth and loyalty. Its distinctive coin on its forehead is a symbol of its obsession with money, and its sharp claws are used for both defense and digging for treasure.
