[SET COMMENTS]
Moves
=========
-Dark pulse is special stab
-Hidden power fighting is technician boosted and hits dark/steel types and mostly pawn
-nasty plot is used for set up to sweep an enemy team when counters are gone
-parting shot allows for easy pivoting and makes enemies spa and att go down
-uturn is also for pivoting but can break sturdy and sash
Set Details
=========
-EVs make you 19 speed to outspeed/tie with almost all of the tier and the max spa you can with 19 speed
-Life orb makes you be more powerful
-EVs in the defenses makes you less vulerable to prority and resisted special attacks
-19 hp so you dont take extra life orb damage
Usage Tips
=========
-Use parting shot/u-turn when you cant kill something or you predict a switch
-dark pulse and coverage can be used early game to hit
-use hp fighting to hit darks/steels and most of all pawn
-nasty plot vs things that fear alolan meowth or cant touch you and try to sweep if you have a chance too
Team Options
==========
-many things like spritzee, timburr, croagunk, and mienfoo wall this set so gothita is a great partner because it can trap these things and alolan meowth can pivot into gothita.
-other voltturn users can be used to create good momentum
-croagunk and foongus also beat timburr, mienfoo, and spritzee which wall alolan meowth
- salandit can come in on fighting types and spritz and set up np
[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
==========
-thunderbolt to hit things like vullaby
-aerial ace to hit fighting types even though alolan meowth is a special attacker, you can also but some evs from spd into att if you would want to run this and change nature to Naive
-hypnosis to put things to sleep and pivot out but beware of miss
-fake out for prority and flinch ( Naive and att invest)
-darkium-z for -parting shot and z-dark pulse
Checks and Counters
===========
-**Fighting Types**- Fighting types resist meowth’s stab and can deal a lot of damage back to meowth with the stab that they carry.
-**Fairy Types**- Fairy types like spritzee do not care about any of alolan meowth’s attacks. They resist dark pulse and hidden power [Fighting] which makes them a very good switch into meowth although some fear the pivot out into a trapper or counter.
-**Special Defence Tanks**- Pokemon like munchlax can switch into meowth’s special attacks fairly well and recover off the damage.
-**Vullaby**-Vullaby can switch into non thunderbolt variants of alolan meowth very well and take little damage from alolan meowth's stab.
-**Priority Users**- Alolan Meowth is very frail so a strong priority moves like mach punch, aqua jet, vacuum wave, and more really hurt meowth. Priority users must be removed for a meowth sweep to happen.
