'''KrazyShipping''', the belief in romantic love between {{MTR}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}, was named for ''Krazy Kat'', a comic strip from the early 20th century about a cat who was in love with a mouse, while the mouse hated the cat.
 
KrazyShipping is one of the more popular pairings involving actual [[Pokémon]]. Though Meowth, along with [[Jessie]] and [[James]], is actively trying to capture Pikachu for {{an|Giovanni}}, there have been a few hints that he may harbour secret feelings for Pikachu. For example, in the episode ''[[EP104|Bound for Trouble]]'', Meowth and Pikachu are handcuffed together and lost by themselves. While Pikachu takes many opportunities to harass Meowth, Meowth actually tries to be nice to Pikachu.[[Image:PikaMeowthOffer.png|250px|thumb|Pikachu sharing half of the one apple with Meowth in ''[[EP104|Bound for Trouble]]'']]
 
In ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]'', both [[Jessie]] and [[James]]'s Pokémon, as well as {{Ash}}'s Pokémon, get separated from their Trainers and must find their way back. Although Meowth tries to harass everyone at first, when he gets tied up, Pikachu unties him. Afterward, Meowth tries to be nice to everyone else.
 
In ''[[AG089|A Scare to Remember]]'', Pikachu gets amnesia and is actually caught by the Rocket trio. Although Meowth does trick Pikachu into thinking it was raised by {{TRT}}, throughout the episode, Meowth admits he feels guilty about tricking Pikachu.
 
In ''[[EP274|Hoenn Alone!]]'', when Meowth stands up for Pikachu, Pikachu smiles at Meowth, but falls over when Pikachu realizes he was talking about Team Rocket instead of Ash.
 
In the Polka O Dolka ending, Meowth and Pikachu are seen double dancing together.
 
==Alternate Names==
*NyaChuShipping - From the sounds that both Pokémon make.
 
==Trivia==
* In the games, both Meowth and Pikachu are in the {{egg3|Field}}, and therefore they can breed. However, Ash's Pikachu and Team Rocket's Meowth cannot breed with each other, because they have the same gender.
* Both Pokémon have, at one point, refused to evolve.
* They both have a rivalry with their evolutionary forms: {{p|Persian}} for Meowth and {{p|Raichu}} for Pikachu.
* Until the Eastern Unova arc, they were the only non-[[Unova]] based Pokémon in the ''Best Wishes'' anime series.
