Meowth (Galar) in Emerald Imperium

Steel — where to catch it, what it learns, and how it differs from the official games.

Compared with the official games

Against the base species it is built from:

Stats HP 40 → 50, Attack 45 → 65, Defense 35 → 55, Speed 90 → 40
Type Normal → Steel
Abilities gains Tough Claws and loses Technician

Compared against present-day official data. The Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived after Pokémon Emerald, so a difference here can belong to the series rather than to this hack.
