|[[Image:Pokemon 052Meowth.png|right]] Meowth is a very special Pokémon. It has the ability Pick-up, which allows the Pokémon to pick up a random item every time a battle is won (Meowth doesn't have to be the active Pokémon). In Pokémon Fire Red and Leaf Green, the items are mostly berries, while in other versions there is more of a variety of items. Meowth is a Normal-type Pokémon. However, it learns a powerful Dark-type attack, and a very special attack called {{bpm|Pay Day}} which causes the player to receive money every time it is used in battle.

#52 Meowth

Meowth is a special Normal-type. It’s rather weak in-game but makes up for it with some unique qualities.

Meowth’s moves include Pay Day, which generates money when used in battle, in proportion to Meowth's level.

If you pick up a Meowth you will have use of its unique ability Pickup. This special passive ability grants Meowth a 10% chance to create a held item every time a battle is completed with it in the party (regardless of Meowth's participation and status). Meowth cannot create an item if it's holding one, so check Meowth often in the party and take any items that it shows up holding. It's the only way to get certain berries, as well as TM10 Hidden Power. This ability may also generate amazing items, such as the elusive PP Up, as well as Nuggets and Rare Candies.

Meowth evolves into Persian at level 28, which gives it a boost to all its stats, but unfortunately it will lose the Pickup ability upon evolving, so think very hard if you want to take this irreversible step.

Underground Path[edit]

The eastern building leads to an underground path that skips Saffron City to reach Route 6. Lookout for hidden items occasionally appearing in the path with the help of the Itemfinder, once you have it.

Trade For
Nidoran♂ Nidoran♀ or

Nicknames of Pokémon originally from other trainers can't be changed. The traded Pokémon come holding a TinyMushroom item, only potentially useful towards the end of the game to change a Pokémon's moves.
