Checks & Counters
########

• Some walls that don't mind a Choice Scarf can switch in easily
• Set up walls that don't worry about Thunder Wave or Yawn can switch in to Meowstic with ease
• Dark-type and Steel-type mons can take little to no damage from Meowstic with its average Special Attack
• Magic Bounce users, Absol in particular, wall out most threats that Meowstic provides. Absol walls out Meowstic entirely with Magic Bounce and its immunity to Trick, Psychic, and Psyshock
