It may be the less popular one, but I absolutely love alolan Persian. I used it in battle a lot, and Monday the shiny Alolan Persian took out massive threats and tanked several hits. It's honestly one of my fav dark types
I once caught an Alola Meowth because it flinched me three times in a row when I wanted to kill it. That Persian later became my teams MVP and my friends nightmare. I have fallen in love with this cat.
Isaac Ampofo That's what I find most important. Alolan Persian isn't just better in battle, it's fun. Tell me what other Pokemon abuses Z-Parting Shot.
I used an Alolan Persian on my Pokémon Moon journey, and it wasn’t that great, but I really got attached to ‘Mieze’ for her insane luck. My Persian just survived attack after attack again and again, always making really clutch saves. For that reason I really do prefer Alolan Persian despite having great memories of my Kantonian Persian.
Alolan Pokemon are meant to be better than their Kanto counterparts in terms of battle. So instead, I judge the different forms based on design, concept, and lure.
Eh,I personally think the Alolan forms are weaker.They're stuck in their environments,with no real extra need to adapt,whereas Kanto doesn't exactly prevent Pokémon from running around and getting stronger even in the wild. For example,a Kanto Raichu would be somewhat hurt by a Crunch,whereas Alolan Raichu would faint. But both Persians just need an Aura Sphere to go down XD
The reason I prefer alolan Persian is because sun was my first game and I was so excited I told myself I catch the next Pokémon I see. Next thing I saw was an alolan meowth.
It just looks like a Persian who accidentally got a bee in its mouth (look up pictures of dogs/puppies who have done this to see what I mean). Nothing against it though! I just can't get that image out of my head.
Khalil Khalil Honestly, look up photos of puppies with their puffed up faces from bees, and you'll know why I can't stop thinking it. 😂 (I know it's breeding related but it looks just like it lol)
While I like regular for its pretty design, I prefer Alolan for being adorable and fun to use. I like how it has slightly higher special attack to take advantage of its special moves, and I love Fur Coat. I'm a big fan of Parting Shot, too.
I have to agree with you on this one, Liam. I really prefer the sleek look of Kantonian Persian, but Alolan Persian is just a little bit more interesting in battle. They really dominated this one, too!
@@oscara8454 true but if it really is up to chance then it would be better if neither side had the upper hand based on ability alone, at least in this battle
Do a meloetta form fight next! I was rooting for Kantonian Persian which was odd in my opinion because I actually despise meowthe and Persian as well as their alolan forms.
The best series on Pokémon battles ever! I agree with your opinion, Liam. Kantonian Persian is better esthetics wise, while Alolan is better battling wise
Kantonian Persian is the best. Why? Because it looks the best. And I'm choosing to look at it through the perspective of Gen 1 when Persian was a monster with Slash because of his high speed giving him a virtually 100% Crit Ratio.
If i should choose which is the best by the type, sure i prefer Dark but besides that Kanto Persian is better in my opinion. Its true that normal ones arent super effective but they have there unique power and battle style. Besides, we human have not powers too. But respect your opinion and agree that Dark type is one of the best types since shadow type doesnt exist.
i always love the normal persian from the first game, it would be my started instead of the 3 main if i could .D. it's disappointed me a little the looks of persian alola version. Persian, starmie and jumpluff always in my team.D Thnx for the video .D
I love both Persian and honestly shiny Alolan Persian is 100% better since you actually can tell the difference. I used Alolan Persian named Scratch for my entire playthrough. No regrets. I simply can't pick one because Persian is one my favorite mons. Edit: Thanks for the heart Liam. And the fact that it looks like an actual Persian cat makes it Alolan design better
I prefer Alolan Persian just because I don't really like these two Pokemon from their look, but I have some fun memories using Alolan Persian so that is my pick.
if I were to rate them.... Kanto normal gets first place.... then shiny Alola.... then normal alola.... then in last is shiny Kanto... because I hate shinies that don't change much from their normals (and while yes Shiny alola is kinda similar to normal alola... I prefer it's shiny colours to it's normal colours...)
Am I the only person who don't evolve into Persian I love regular Meowth cuz in the anime he talks team rocket don't realize how rare of a Pokemon that really is heis so funny and so cool Meowth respect
Best form is unevolved. Persian loses Pay Day and Pickup when it evolves, so keeping your Meowth unevolved is decently viable for casual main-story play.
If alola's face was different, I'd like it better. I like alolan meowth better than Kanto because of it's sarcastic look, but vastly prefer kantoian pursian
I understand your point, however I use the hidden abilities in all Form Fights, so I used Persian and Alolan Persian's hidden abilities for the sake of consistency. Plus, if I'd have given them both Technician, I'd no doubt have a bunch of comments complaining that one Pokémon got more moves with 60BP or below than the other, so I can't really win! xD
Hey Liam, I was just thinking... maybe you could do metronome battles for branched evolution? That could be interesting **eyebrow wiggle** :3 EDIT: 63rd like lol
xMeowItsZufix Yes, but he didn’t do a Metronome battle for the branched evolutions. Also, he said that he might run out of forms soon and may move on to branched evolutions for the Metronome battles.
If you’re wanting to make the battle as “fair” as possible for the metronome battle, why wouldn’t you give them both the same ability if they can share the same ability? Wouldn’t giving both of them Technician have made it a more even playing field?
New sub here just now getting back in to Pokémon for some reason I’m turning 27 this December and off what made start looking up so much Pokémon this year and I’m thinking of starting a collection again from the very first base set to the new ones but omg there’s soooooooo many more different type of cards now it’s a lil intimidating to start a new collection where do I start the last like remembers like third series of Pokémon
I never really liked persian as I felt sorry for team rocket's meowth in the anime cos giovanni preferred persian and I just prefer the look of Alolan persian. I didn't like it at first but, it just grew on me.
Wtf Nintendo trying to do to the Meowth line? The original Meowth/Person were perfect, Alolan looks doofy, and don't get me started with the Galarian line
I like the alolan Persian because looks more like the cat it's based off of. The alolan form of PersianI know why they designed it the way they did but I don't really like the design to me looks weird.
I prefer the Kanto Persian for some reasons: nostalgia, personality, appearence and dex entry. Type I prefer Dark because it resembles shadow which i love it but even if I like both just because Kanto is a pure normal it doesnt mean he is "worst". Simplicity is a good thing sometimes. Like both, capture both but prefer Kanto version.
I prefer Kantonian just for its resemblance to a panther, just the sleek look fits it more And the timing was horribly off in this video, I could see the bad sync with the audio and video
i prefer alolan persian because fore me regular persian is just a boring pokemon that i've never used and never cared abaut, but i've used the alolan one in some online battle and i liked it
