Strategy & play
How Alolan Meowth plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Not a main attacker — its job is search / tutoring. Run it as a consistency hub and protect it, because opponents will target the engine.
- Needs Darkness Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Darkness type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting attacker doing ≥30 effectively one-shots it.
- A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
How to beat Alolan Meowth
- Exploit its Fighting weakness — ≥30 damage one-shots it.
- KO it to choke their draw / search engine.

About this card
"This Pokémon was not originally found in Alola. Human actions caused a surge in their numbers, and they went feral. They're prideful and crafty."
Nasty Plot
Flip a coin. If heads, search your deck for a card and put it into your hand. Then, shuffle your deck.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Alolan Meowth is real?
Alolan Meowth is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the back-light test (real cards have a black inner layer that blocks light; counterfeits glow through), the rosette dot pattern on the back under magnification, font weight and kerning on the card name, and the holofoil pattern if applicable. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
