Scotch
Scotchiomali Thaddäus Mauzi XXV, or commonly called Scotch, is Raichu's loyal pet meowth who also has a bit of a wild side. He was introduced well after the Ralph arc, and was generally loved, due to his coloring and absolute cuteness. Like Raichu and Wakko, he comes from a faraway realm.
History[edit | edit source]
Scotch's origin is somewhat unclear. Rumors say he was a Team Rocket creation gone rogue, while others say he was a creation of Professor Oak's. An unofficial book says he was genetically created in a lab with a simple goal (make a meowth that can learn any move) and escaped the lab in 1994, while some official sources say he was of Greek origin.
Moveset[edit | edit source]
Scotch may be a meowth, but his moveset is expanded. His most infamous move is Fire Blast; however, he can also be using Heal Pulse and Ice Beam – and on some occasions moves that even Pokemon can't learn.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Scotch was originally just a normal meowth, but he was given his unique color by accident. His updated moveset was added as well.
- Scotch's middle name, Thaddäus, roughly translates to Squidward, implying some hidden connection between Scotch's and Squidward's individual family trees. This was debunked in 2004.
- Additionally, his last name, Mauzi, is just "Meowth" in German.
- Scotch has the thousand-year purr.
- Scotch, along with Raichu and Wakko, enjoys the delicious cheese pizza from Peppino's.
