Meowth team

Anonymous Sun 04 Aug 2013 00:28:11 No.13249365 View View Reply Original Report

I like Meowth and want to use him but he's sucha a weak pokemon.
Question: Can i add Evolite/FakeOut/U-turn Meowth to my team just for fun?
Will it make it work? Did anybody had a normal team with tough pokemon and Meowth in it?
I so want to have a Meowth just for Fake Out trolling. Just for seeing him in battle.

I watched someone do this on Showdown this morning, but with Persian.

I'm sure it's doable, you just need to have the right pokemon around him. Maybe something like a speed booster with baton pass for maximum trolling?

I wish you the best of luck, OP. There's always a special place in my trainer's heart for people looking to add unorthodox pokemon to their teams just because they like them

I was thinking about Baton Pass to make some kind of a teamwork around Meowth too. But this will eat some free turns.
I was just wondering if Meowth can even work just like regular pokemon without extra support?
I thought evolite/fakeout/u-turn-Surprise will work...?

bumpity-bump!
Surprisingly my Meowth idea gone way too far! He's at 70th level now (started to train this morning, he's a Jolly one with Technician ability).
And HOLY SHIT i love him in-game! What can be better than:
1) Fake Out 2) U-Turn. 3) SURPISE unbreakable wall-pokemon!
Sure it can't doo that much damage to some bulky pokemon, but it's just so fun to see one of my favorite pokemon being at least usable and not dying! Lol Meoth is such a troll.
It's even funnier if pokemon is badly poisoned. "Fake Out-U-turn--SurpriseWall" just adds more trouble to that.
I will continue updating this thread with more Meowth news and tactics.
It's such a shame he can't use Low Sweep or some fighting moves.
And why no Acrobatics? Jumps and some hard to do tricks is soo Cat-like. Acrobatics would look nice on Meowth.
PS:
I revenge killed a Tangela once. U-turn is a bug-move which made her faint.

Bump.
Found that it's better to use Silk Scarf meowth than an Evolite-one. Evolite boosts his defenses but that works only in Little Cup. You sure don't want Meowth take ANY hits ever. It's so much better with Silk Scarf boosting Fake Out and Return.
He will be 100lvl soon and i already see the answer:
- Yes you CAN use Meowth as a potential non-dying trolling pokemon if you like him that much.
- No he will not take any hits if you not trying to attack fast pokemon or pokemon with Inner Focus.
- Even Meowth alone can kill Hitmonlee or Chancey if used with smart tactics.

Another update.
Meowth is already 100lvl and has different tactics.
Decided to remove Silk Scarf and make him use a Life Orb instead because it boosts power of all moves.
PS:
Probably the most interesting thing i found about Meowth: Furry Swipes! That's right! One of the MOST useless moves work well with meowth!
Why?
Because it's a STAB move + Each furry swipe gets power boost from Technician ability and Life orb. It's a bit risky thought, because you can make it hit just twice, but still an interesting find for sure. Sometimes i hit 5 times and one of them has a critical hit.
Meowth can 2HKO (fake out + furry swipes) most of in-game pokemon of 1-70 lvl that don't have resist against normal attack. Or just troll bulky pokemon or even revenge kill some of them!
Im seriously surprised by Meowth!
PS:
Deleted Furry Swipes and made him know Aerial Ace to see what happens. AA also gets a Technician boost and can be used against some pokemon. I'll try that too.

Lol i just saw that. I mean Tangrowth ot whatever that ugly thing is. Fake out + bug type u-turn.
But seriously this is fucking sad.
Online is full of "press Outrage to win" users and there is not so much room to experiment and use some unique tactics.
I hope it will make some of showdown autists ragequit with this tactics. I will try to copy this meowth stats to showdown team and see what happens

Oh yeah. No doubt is the best of the best. You know what? it should be retyped as fairy type too and can wreck the shit out those silly dragons.

>not sure if silly sarcasm
Well sure 100 vs 78 (it's like almost 80lvl) but it's a Meowth against a Haxorus. Aat least it's not as useless and weak as it looked first.
Showdown goes okay too. Sending out Meowth against powerful ghost attackers is hilarious. Their moves fail and i switch out to another pokemon and it confuses them alot.
Meowth looks nice as a revenge killer because Fake Out + 1) Aerial Ace OR 2) Bite OR 3) U-turn is a nice combination for a revenge killer.
It's so fun and not a thing you often seen in OU it almost hurts my brain.

Playing well with "whatever pokemon" you want, will only work for so long. Most competitive builds are based on averages. For example; yeah a technician STAB multi-hit attack is going to hit like a truck if it hits all 5 times. However, that isn't going to happen each time, where a skill link user WILL get 5 hits each time, even if they aren't as powerful.

I use a scout persian on my competitive team. Life orb him because if he gets hit he'll be dead anyway. It's surprising what he can 2HKO with Fake Out and Return. Also I run limber on mine so I can throw him in when I think an opponent will thunderwave. He's fast as hell but weak as shit, still debating if he's worth it, but he can be really useful in dealing minor damage and swapping for a better match up.

But i just really do not care. Like totally. Pokemon games to me is having stuff like this - experimenting with all kinds of monsters, tactics, moves and items etc.etc.
This meowth is the first one i talked in public. I have boxes full of EV trained pokemon (even having several of the same kind just for different move sets and ev training).
Meowth is just another project and i like how it goes.
It's so damn embarrassing to see the same shit everywhere on showdown. Do they even enjoy this game? It's like eathing the same crap every day for me. DO NOT WANT

Oh wait.
I don't have Fury Swipes anymore. As i said it was too risky and i put Aerial Ace to that move slot.

Which +EVs is still enough to make up stat difference. And on top of that, Pokemon NPCs are notorious fuckwits, so he probably wasn't doing anything useful.

Just played another game with Alakazam.
Seriously Fake Out eats half~ of Alakazam's HP.
Also i wish i could use King's Rock in this set. Bite already have some % of flinching the target. May be with King's Rock it will have more chances to do that. Again it's too risky but Meowth having 2 flinching moves and free third one sounds so TASTY

He didn't do anything. I just did Fake out and then U-turn and made that photo. I was just happy to see that cat eating so much of Haxorus HP with 2 attacks.
But you are right...i forgot about messed up NPC's EVs...

Even if an NPC doesnt have good EVs, no competitive player would EV haxorus's HP and/or defense.

Here guys, check out this replay of my "Meowth Team".

http://pokemonshowdown.com/replay/ou-43139137

Too bad i was a bit scared of using him that much but the start if that battle was a lot of fun!
Usually i use Meowth ONLY after my pokemon is defeated because i don't want him to get any hits.
PS:
Also that useeless Lilligant... I had no idea Meowth can almost get rid of her. And he even took 1 hit from her and survived.

It could have had a -defense nature.
Also you're seriously understating just how huge of a difference 20 levels makes.
Especially with the proper EVs, nature, and IVs that's a SHIT TON of stat points you're missing out on at level 80 .
