Glad Marowak keeps Lightning Rod, I LOVE that ability. Thats an immunity to 3 types also!

Looks like we be getting just Kanto variants. So far, it has been just gen 1 pokemon with Alola forms. It would have been nice to get other gens with Alola forms though.
And again it would lose the ability to abuse the 270 BP volt tackle presumed thar his ability is activated by electric terrain.
Also 120 BP electric physical stab is no laughing matter, it actually hits A LOT of stuff harder than thunderbolt with immediate power nailing the 2hko or ohko after rocks that tbolt would fail or end up being forced out after NP.
Immediate power and targets make volt tackle and a mixed or purely physical spree superior when compared to a special one.
Volt Tackle is really it's only worthy physical move, and I'd much rather have a 90bp or 110bp special electric move and a 90bp special psychic move over a 120bp physical electric move and possibly a 80bp physical psychic move. Assuming it will get Psychic and maybe Zen Headbutt.
It has way more potential as a special attacker tbh.
Not confirmed yet, but it's looking very likely that will be the case, which IMO is such a big mistake. Many other older Pokemon could've received these changes to make them more usable like Tropius, Heatmor, and Girafarig.

Meowth looks much better in-game. Shame its abilities are the same. Having technician and dark typing makes it a less effective Fake Outer than normal Meowth. But boosted STAB Thief, Feint Attack and Bite, all base 60. Wonder which one will be of most use?
- Feint Attack can never miss, evasion is not a real issue online
- thief steals the opponents items, good if its a focus sash or berry, bad if its a Choice item.
- Bite can make you flinch.
I'd go with Theif if it ever learns Fling, if not then Bite (assuming they don't give it crunch)
Are there any variations in the design that the coro coro pic isn't showing? Because to me it looks exactly the same as regular Meowth aside from a minor eye shape difference.Meowth looks much better in-game.

Also Alolan Meowth legit just looks like an alternate Meowth shiny. That's exactly what I didn't want to see happen with these Alolan forms, just color palette swaps. That's a shiny not a new form.
