History

Glameow first meeting Zoey

Glameow was first seen in Mounting a Coordinator Assault when it approached Dawn with her missing choker around its tail. It wasn't until the next episode, however, that it showed just how strong it really was. During the Jubilife Contest, it managed to take out Ash's Aipom, Dawn's Buneary, and Jessie's borrowed Carnivine, earning Zoey the Jubilife Ribbon. Later on it was revealed that it defeated Kenny's Prinplup as well.

It appeared again in Buizel Your Way Out of This! where it battled a wild Buizel, Zoey was attempting to catch. However after an impressive battle it was knocked out by Buizel's Aqua Jet. In The Stand-Up Sit-Down! along with Misdreavus it found Ash and his friends so they could help Zoey. Later, along with Shellos it showed Dawn a Double Performance using its Shock Wave with Shellos's Mud Bomb to create a dazzling performance. Then Jessalina appears and uses her Dustox and Seviper in a double battle with Glameow and Shellos. Jessalina had some good combinations but was no match for Zoey and was defeated.

Zoey uses Glameow in the Hearthome City Contest were along with Shellos is used in the first round creating an astonishing performance. In Throwing the Track Switch!, Glameow is used in a battle against Dawn's Buizel to gain its experience in contests.

Zoey used it again to battle Fantina's Mismagius in Playing The Leveling Field!, but it was defeated by a combination of Magical Leaf and Psywave.

Zoey used Glameow in the Wallace Cup's semifinal round against May and her Beautifly. However it lost to Beautifly, knocking Zoey out of the competition.

It also appeared in Classroom Training! where it was revealed how it was caught by Zoey. She found Glameow abandoned in a box in an alley one cold day. Her parents wouldn't let her keep it, saying she was too young to be a Pokémon Trainer. They told her to take it to a Pokémon Center, but she decided to hide it in a shed and take care of it in secret as well. Zoey and Candice both raised Glameow together until Zoey became a Trainer, at which point Glameow joined Zoey on her journey as her starter Pokémon.

In Coming Full Festival Circle! it helped Zoey to the Semi-finals alongside her Gastrodon, and in A Grand Fight for Winning! it was a key Pokémon in Zoey's victory in the Sinnoh Grand Festival final against Dawn and alongside Gallade.

Moves improvised

• Mud Bomb-Shock Wave combination Zoey had her Shellos fire a Mud Bomb into the air, which Glameow used Shock Wave on, dotting up Shellos's attack.
• Shadow Claw-Blizzard combination Zoey had her Glameow use Shadow Claw, and then Shellos would use Blizzard on the Shadow Claw,making it look like the blizzard is coming out of Glameow's paw, making it a much more powerful and beautiful attack.
• Signal-Tail was a move used by Zoey during her battle against Dawn in the final of the Sinnoh Grand Festival. For the move, Zoey's Gallade would fire a Signal Beam at Glameow while it was using Iron Tail. By twirling its tail around, Glameow could capture the Signal Beam and create a spiral effect, which it would then fire at the opponent.
• Electrified-Psycho Cut it was the final attack against Dawn, it starts off with Gallade doing a flip while using Psycho Cut. Glameow then puts it's tail up, Gallade then jumps into Glameow's tail Glameow then uses Thunderbolt on Gallade, his blades are now charged with electricity and then fires his Electrified Psycho-Cut toward Dawn's Sky Attack-Peck Combination ending her battle with Dawn giving Zoey the win.
