Choice Item Meowscarada distinguishes itself as an amazing wallbreaker and offensive pivot of the tier thanks to its great Attack and Speed stats and fantastic coverage options alongside Protean, capable of dismantling common defensive picks such as Dondozo, Galarian Slowking, and Ting-Lu. Choice Band boosts its wallbreaking prowess to nuclear levels, whereas Choice Scarf makes it a great revenge killer capable of outspeeding foes like +1 Iron Valiant, Deoxys-S, and +1 Roaring Moon. Triple Axel functions as an incredible coverage move, hitting foes like Gliscor, Roaring Moon, Dragonite, and Enamorus super effectively. U-turn allows Meowscarada to gain momentum against common switch-ins like Kingambit, Skarmory, and Corviknight. Trick can also be used over Flower Trick to cripple checks like Skarmory and bulky setup sweepers like Hatterene to hamper their effectiveness and giving Meowscarada more flexibility with moves. Tera Dark boosts the power of its Knock Off, notably allowing Choice Scarf Meowscarada to OHKO Galarian Slowking and Choice Band Meowscarada to OHKO offensive Volcarona and Cinderace. Tera Fire makes Meowscarada resistant to Ice, Fairy, and Fire, helping it against foes like Kyurem, Enamorus, Gouging Fire, and Volcarona while also making it immune to Will-O-Wisp from the likes of Dragapult and Volcarona's Flame Body, though it still struggles against Gouging Fire, as losing Protean means it fails to nail the 2HKO. In addition, Choice Scarf Meowscarada no longer OHKOes Gliscor, Roaring Moon, and Rillaboom, while Choice Band variants lose the OHKO on Raging Bolt. Finally, Tera Grass allows Meowscarada's Flower Trick to reach new heights of power, enabling Choice Scarf variants to secure an OHKO on bulky Calm Mind Primarina and Choice Band variants to OHKO maximum HP Great Tusk.

Choice Item Meowscarada fits well on bulky offense structures that appreciate its ability to pivot and remove items from opposing Pokemon, especially defensive ones, with Knock Off. Teammates such as Gholdengo and Volcarona appreciate Meowscarada pivoting against switch-ins like Skarmory and Corviknight, giving them opportunities to set up and clean. Other setup sweepers like Iron Defense Zamazenta also appreciate Meowscarada's ability to revenge kill foes like Gholdengo and non-Choice Scarf Enamorus for them to set up and sweep with minimum hindrance. Entry hazard setters like Ting-Lu, Skarmory, and Gliscor also appreciate Meowscarada using Knock Off to remove Heavy-Duty Boots, which makes foes like Volcarona take hazard damage. Special wallbreakers like Kyurem and Enamorus also appreciate Meowscarada threatening special walls like Primarina and Galarian Slowking. Meowscarada struggles against Steel-types like Skarmory, Archaludon, and Kingambit. Thus, teammates that threaten them, such as Dragapult and the aforementioned Gholdengo and Volcarona for Skarmory, and Pokemon like Zamazenta and Great Tusk for Kingambit, are appreciated. Zamazenta itself is also a threat to Meowscarada, so teammates that check it such as the aforementioned Dragapult, Gholdengo, and Enamorus should be acknowledged. Galarian Slowking also deserves a special mention as a teammate, as its Future Sight has excellent synergy with Meowscarada and helps it deal with Zamazenta as well as other Fighting-types like Iron Valiant by making Meowscarada's moves, especially Knock Off, harder to switch into with these Pokemon. In addition, it also forms a strong pivoting core with Meowscarada. Due to the risk of being Choice-locked into the wrong move, Meowscarada is also quite prediction reliant when facing structures with Pokemon like Gliscor and Dondozo. Therefore, Pokemon that pressure such cores, like Raging Bolt and Dragapult, are excellent partners. Meowscarada also doesn't like taking chip damage from hazards, as it repeatedly wants to pivot in and out of the field. Thus, it appreciates hazard control from teammates such as Great Tusk.

Choice Item Meowscarada distinguishes itself as an amazing wallbreaker and offensive pivot of the tier thanks to its great Attack and Speed stats and fantastic coverage options, capable of dismantling common defensive picks such as Dondozo, Galarian Slowking, and Ting-Lu. Choice Band boosts its wallbreaking prowess to nuclear levels, whereas Choice Scarf makes it a great revenge killer capable of outspeeding foes like +1 Iron Valiant, Deoxys-S, and +1 Roaring Moon, albeit at the cost of losing some of its power. (Could maybe remove this? It's not wrong but feels like a given that Scarf is weaker than Band) Triple Axel functions as an awesome coverage move, hitting foes like Gliscor, Roaring Moon, and Enamorus super effectively. U-turn acts as the pivoting move, allowing Meowscarada to gain momentum against common switch-ins like Kingambit, Skarmory, and Archaludon. (U-turning on Arch isn't terrible but ideally you don't want to give it the Stamina boost, Corvi might be a better list here) Tera Dark boosts the power of its Knock Off, notably allowing Choice Scarf Meowscarda to OHKO Galarian Slowking and Choice Band Meowscarada to OHKO offensive Volcarona and have a 56.3% chance to OHKO bulky variants. (Not worth talking about a 50/50 roll to kill a variant of something, could instead mention other OHKOs or 2HKOs it secures? for example Cinderace) Tera Fire makes Meowscarada resistant to Ice, Fairy, Fire, and Bug, (Just to make this feel a little less list-y / like dex info, maybe cut this down to three and then later say that this also allows it to take U-turn as there are very few other relevant Bug-type attacks) helping it against foes like Kyurem, Enamorus, Gouging Fire, and U-turn Corviknight (Could add Volcarona here and move a U-turn resistance to later on if you wanna include it as it's less relevant. Also, Meow still struggles with Gouging after Tera Fire, as losing Protean means you don't even 2HKO it with CB Axel while it can just EQ you next turn for the kill) while also making it immune to Will-O-Wisp from the likes of Dragapult (and Volcarona's Flame Body). Finally, Tera Grass allows Meowscarada's Flower Trick to reach new heights of power, enabling Choice Scarf variants to secure an OHKO on Zamazenta (Even CB Tera Grass doesn't OHKO Zamazenta) and defensive Calm Mind Primarina (Note that this is Calm Mind Primarina, as there is no other defensive Prima spread and this gives the impression that Prima may be used defensively against Meow) after Stealth Rock and Choice Band variants to 2HKO Toxapex. (Another nice benchmark is OHKOing max HP Tusk through Bulk Up, up to you if you wanna include this though as they do outspeed and kill you w/ +1 Spinner - Just thinking of other examples as Pex is pretty low viability right now)

(One small thing that could maybe be worth mentioning in Paragraph 1 as a niche alternative move is Trick over Flower Trick? it's a pretty solid option that's came up a lot in tour play recently, up to you.)

Choice Item Meowscarada fits well on balance and bulky offense structures that appreciate its ability to pivot and remove items from opposing Pokemon, especially defensive ones, using Knock Off. Teammates such as Gholdengo and Volcarona appreciate Meowscarada pivoting against switch-ins like Skarmory and Clefable, (Note that Clef is only a switch-in to Scarf Meow, CB 2HKOs it with both Axel and FTrick) giving them opportunities to set up and clean. Other setup sweepers like Calm Mind Enamorus and Nasty Plot Darkrai also appreciate Choice Scarf variant's ability to revenge kill foes like Gholdengo and opposing Enamorus for them to set up and sweep with minimum hindrance. (Not sure if Plot Darkrai is the strongest partner to choiced Meow, while CM Enamorus is not currently listed in the dex) Entry hazard setters like Ting-Lu, Skarmory, and Gliscor also appreciate Meowscarada using Knock Off to remove Heavy-Duty Boots, which makes foes like Volcarona and Corviknight (Corviknight doesn't run boots) take hazard damage. Special wallbreakers like Kyurem and Enamorus also appreciate Meowscarada breaking down special walls like Primarina and Galarian Slowking (Meow doesn't really break them, as neither will come in or stay in on it - could rephrase this to threatening them out?). Meowscarada struggles against Steel-types like Skarmory, Archaludon, and Kingambit. Thus, teammates that threaten them, such as Dragapult and the aforementioned Gholdengo and Volcarona, for Skarmory, and Pokemon like Zamazenta and Great Tusk for Archaludon and Kingambit are appreciated (Za and Tusk do threaten Arch but neither can come in on or OHKO it, with both losing 1v1 if Meow U-turns to bring them in. Hard to suggest alternatives though as nothing really threatens to OHKO Arch and defensive switch-ins are often very passive and wouldn't pair well with Choiced Meow so this isn't too bad, just comes across like both are Arch checks when they aren't the best at that). Zamazenta itself is also a threat to Meowscarada, so teammates that check it such as the aforementioned Dragapult, Gholdengo, and Enamorus are acknowledged. Galarian Slowking also deserves a special mention as a teammate, as its Future Sight has an excellent synergy with Meowscarada and helps it deal with Zamazenta as well as other Fighting-types like Iron Valiant (How? Note that it makes Meow's moves harder to switch into with these Pokemon). Due to the risk of being Choice-locked into the wrong move, Meowscarada is also quite prediction reliant when facing structures with Pokemon like Gliscor + and Dondozo. Therefore, Pokemon that pressure such cores, like Raging Bolt and Dragapult, are excellent partners.

Tera Fire makes Meowscarada resistant to Ice, Fairy, and Fire, helping it against foes like Kyurem, Enamorus, Gouging Fire, and Volcarona while also making it immune to Will-O-Wisp from the likes of Dragapult and Volcarona's Flame Body, though it still struggles against Gouging Fire, as losing Protean means it fails to 2HKO it. (This interaction with Gouging alone seems a little specific but it is good to note that losing Protean makes Axel / Turn weaker. Feel free to find your own examples here and don't list all of these but some key things you miss out on with Tera Fire are Scarf no longer OHKOs Gliscor, Roaring Moon (important since Scarf Meow outspeeds after a DD), Rillaboom and Serp, while Band loses the OHKO on Raging Bolt and can no longer 2HKO Skarm after rocks) Finally, Tera Grass allows Meowscarada's Flower Trick to reach new heights of power, enabling Choice Scarf variants to secure an OHKO on Calm Mind Primarina after Stealth Rock and Choice Band variants to OHKO maximum HP Great Tusk. Trick can also be used over Flower Trick to Choice-lock Pokemon like Archaludon and Skarmory to hamper their effectiveness and giving Meowscarada more flexibility with moves.

Thus, teammates that threaten them, such as Dragapult and the aforementioned Gholdengo and Volcarona, for Skarmory, and Pokemon like Zamazenta and Great Tusk for Archaludon and Kingambit are appreciated. Do note that Great Tusk and Zamazenta have difficulty in dealing with Archaludon if it manages to gain a +1 Stamina boost from Meowscarada's U-turn, though (Tbh it's up to you if you include this info, offense kinda struggles to fit a safe Arch answer right now which is part of why it's getting suspected lmao). Zamazenta itself is also a threat to Meowscarada, so teammates that check it such as the aforementioned Dragapult, Gholdengo, and Enamorus are acknowledged. Galarian Slowking also deserves a special mention as a teammate, as its Future Sight has an excellent synergy with Meowscarada and helps it deal with Zamazenta as well as other Fighting-types like Iron Valiant by making Meowscarada's moves (Could maybe just say Knock Off as that's prob the most valuable combo and it's what Fighting-types would want to switch in on but this is fine too, FTrick / Axel + Fsight is also very strong) harder to switch into with these Pokemon. Due to the risk of being Choice-locked into the wrong move, Meowscarada is also quite prediction reliant when facing structures with Pokemon like Gliscor and Dondozo. Therefore, Pokemon that pressure such cores, like Raging Bolt and Dragapult, are excellent partners.

(even though it's unslashed i'd still move this up woth other move descrptions and not after teras so a reader can find all move stuff in the same place)

Choice Item Meowscarada fits well on balance and bulky offense structures that appreciate its ability to pivot and remove items from opposing Pokemon, especially defensive ones, using Knock Off. (not super sure on balance when they benefit much more from the hazard immunity of the boots set in longer games) Teammates such as Gholdengo and Volcarona appreciate Meowscarada pivoting against switch-ins like Skarmory and Corviknight, giving them opportunities to set up and clean. Other setup sweepers like Iron Defense Zamazenta also appreciate Choice Scarf variant's ability to revenge kill foes like Gholdengo (band also revenges ghold, no need to specify scarf for this one) and opposing (no need to specify if enam isnt the first example. band also revenges enam unless its also scarf) Enamorus for them to set up and sweep with minimum hindrance. Entry hazard setters like Ting-Lu, Skarmory, and Gliscor also appreciate Meowscarada using Knock Off to remove Heavy-Duty Boots, which makes foes like Volcarona take hazard damage.

tusk + spin in general should be mentioned somewhere because choice meow is really vulerable to hazards bc it pivots a lot and doesnt have boots

Choice Band boosts its wallbreaking prowess to nuclear levels, whereas Choice Scarf makes it a great revenge killer capable of outspeeding foes like +1 Iron Valiant, Deoxys-S, and +1 Roaring Moon. Triple Axel functions as an awesome incredible (awesome is too casual of a word for analyses purposes) coverage move, hitting foes like Gliscor, Roaring Moon, and Enamorus super effectively (i'd add dnite too). U-turn acts as the pivoting move, allowing allows Meowscarada to gain momentum against common switch-ins like Kingambit, Skarmory, and Corviknight. Trick can also be used over Flower Trick to Choice-lock Pokemon like Archaludon and cripple checks like Skarmory and bulky setup sweepers like Hatterene to hamper their effectiveness and giving Meowscarada more flexibility with moves.

In addition, Choice Scarf Meowscarada no longer OHKOes Gliscor, Roaring Moon, and Rillaboom, while Choice Band ones variants lose the OHKO on Raging Bolt. Finally, Tera Grass allows Meowscarada's Flower Trick to reach new heights of power, enabling Choice Scarf variants to secure an OHKO on bulky Calm Mind Primarina after Stealth Rock (it does like 99% to max/max, i think you can just remove the stealth rock mention tbh, cause it implies without rocks flower trick wouldve done like ~90%) and Choice Band variants to OHKO maximum HP Great Tusk.

Special wallbreakers like Kyurem and Enamorus also appreciate Meowscarada threatening special walls like Primarina and Galarian Slowking. Meowscarada struggles against Steel-types like Skarmory, Archaludon, and Kingambit. Thus, teammates that threaten them, such as Dragapult and the aforementioned Gholdengo and Volcarona, (rc) for Skarmory, and Pokemon like Zamazenta and Great Tusk for Archaludon and Kingambit, (ac) are appreciated. Do note that Great Tusk and Zamazenta have difficulty in dealing with Archaludon if it manages to gain a +1 Stamina boost from Meowscarada's U-turn, though. Zamazenta itself is also a threat to Meowscarada, so teammates that check it such as the aforementioned Dragapult, Gholdengo, and Enamorus are should be acknowledged.
