Slash, Fury Swipes, possibly Fury Cutter and Bite (sabertooth fang)......perhaps that helps?

I don't think Fury Cutter fits, but the rest sound good and Bite naturally leads to Crunch or Hyper Fang, rite?

Not always. Hyper Fang is....more of a rodent-inscisor-tooth move, for Raticate (and Pachirusu, although it is not a rodent...) and Crunch probably means it has a strong jaw and teeth, and having saber teeth does not nessecary mean they can crunch on things. I've tried drawing Predaroar, but it is not going well, so could someone else try?

I see what your saying and that is why I asked because I wasn't sure on those moves. I appreciate even the effort on the drawing, coolsteph. So the list of moves that are kind of appropriate right now is Bite, Slash, Fury Swipes, and I think Bulk Up, Superpower, and Close Combat should be in there. Any other ideas?

I generally dislike man-made items on pokemon.. so I'm not too sure about the ninja sash. I think Mega Kick, Mega Punch, and Hi-Jump Kick work for this pokemon. Jump Kick too.

I have attempted to draw it. Meowth is actually hard to draw, including anything that looks like it. It might be gritty because I used Paint.net to trace over Meowth's art, even when I eventually made it more 'proportional'.

I like Hi-Jump Kick and Mega Punch, but I think if Mega Kick gets put in there it might be slightly redundant. Also, Jump Kick could be learned earlier on and eventually be intended to be "replaced" with Hi-Jump Kick. I kinda like the ninja sash...it is supposed to represent the focus band that evolved Meowth in the first place.

Why can't the type be normal/fighting? It evolves from a normal pokemon.

I don't think that's a good enough reason for it to be Normal - it should have a real reason, and this is an all-out fighting pokemon.

I never intended for it to be normal type at all. Coolsteph thanks so much for doing that art!! I really like how the head looks, but I imagined the body to be taller and more muscular, like a fighting type should be IMHO. That way it is more streamlined and can own up to its predatorial background. If the limbs were a bit longer too that'd be cool and I always thought that the claws would be a bit larger than Meowth's.

Its name is Predaroar right so it should learn roar. Maybe rage and thrash as well since it gets so angry.

I am sure about Roar, I can't believe I forgot to put that in there, how stupid of me. I like Thrash and Rage could be like the Jump Kick to Hi-Jump Kick

EDIT: I updated the move list with some new ones, but I have no levels and think it needs more non-damaging moves. Question, Focus Energy? Something else?

Maybe Adrenaline?

War March might be suitable too. Or War Cry, if it's a PF move.

Yeah War March sounds good but I don't think War Cry would be suitable, though. I'll try to post a prototype Move List tomorrow

Eh. Hmm. I'm not sure I know why, but I find this evolution kind of "forced" - drawn differently(ie. not looking like Meowth), I think it would make much better on it's own.

Though as it is, let's assume for a moment a fighting evolution for Meowth was okay with me:

Movelist needs more "other" category(support) moves - and I think I agree with elementalpenguin that man-made items on pokemon are iffy. It needs an ability - Inner Focus, Vital Spirit, Anger Point, Steadfast, Guts, even Scrappy.

But really, most of all, I think we need some justification; why a Fighting evolution for Meowth? What makes it have a Fighting-evolution all of a sudden after three generations?

Of course it is drawn differently. If it was unchanged, it would not be an evolution. Although, as for being drawn in a different style, I could not do anything about that. Meowth (and things traced on it) is hard to draw.

If anyone thinks that making the ninja-style band wrapped around its head less artificial (man-made) then perhaps it could be made into spiky hair of some sort, and a pattern that merely resembles a ninja-style band. Not sure if that would look better, through.

I can't believe I forgot to put the ability on there, that makes me feel so stupid! I meant for it to have Scrappy as an ability because it adds to the whole "aggressive fighting style" thing. As for the justification, I have always intended the head to maintain the majority of Meowth's characteristics and the whole thing to have an almost identical color arrangement. It is intended for the more aggressive Meowth's that preferred to continue being bipedal instead of the four-legged Persian evolution. If you can give me an explanation that is logical and strong as to why this evolution would be a better standalone, then I would be happy to hear it foxofwar.

P.S. thank you for defending me coolsteph

Mind if I say something?

Evolutions don't always need the EXACT same characteristics; the picture doesn't look like a "predaroar" to me as is a meowth dressing up as Ryu from Street Fighter.

A few details should be identical in an evolution, but not 5 or 6; those few are just exemplified traits of the evolved pokemon (ex. nosepass's nose, lotads lilypad, mudkip's fin, etc.) I understand that you want a bipedal evolution, but the descriptions you gave don't make sense.

I say, if you want to do a meowth evolution, take my criticism.

*smiles* I was not actually thinking of Street Fighter, but with the comparison, I see how similar they are. I could redesign it now.
