Nyarth's Party (Japanese: ニャースのパーティ) is the seventh ending theme song to the Japanese Pokémon anime. It debuted in EP117, replacing Riding on Lapras, and ended in EP141, being replaced by Exciting Pokémon Relay.

In the United States, Kids' WB! aired the ending in its original Japanese after one episode, and aired an English dub of the song in the next. Neither ending was ever aired again on the network.

The animation for the ending was composed in 3-D computer graphics, with the exception of Jessie and James, who remain as 2-D cels in the style of Paper Mario.

Meowth sings the song at his party in Pichu Bros. in Party Panic.

CD single

A rare CD single with four tracks was released in 1999 in Japan which featured four tracks (Nyarth no Party, Nyarth no Uta 2000, To Itteru Nya, Nyarth no Party Instrumental) plus a hidden track. (See Meowth's Party (Single)) Though rare, it sometimes surfaces on online stores such as Ebay or Amazon.

Ending animation

Synopsis

Meowth is under a spotlight, playing an organ while he sings. Then he is shown playing a guitar, and Jessie's Arbok and James's Weezing appear behind him.

A banner on a screen unfurls as Meowth once again plays guitar on a stage in a dark, empty room. Jessie, James, Arbok, and Weezing appear and Jessie and James play guitar and sing part of the chorus before they float through the sky with a teacup filled with Pokémon.

A horde of Pokémon run into the room where Meowth was. The camera pans out, lights go on, and a giant sign in the background says Meowth's Party. Then Meowth plays guitar in a white box, at one point his body reverting to cel-shaded animation before going back to 3-D.

While Meowth, Jessie, and James play, the Pokémon in the room dance.

	Mikazuki gata no tokubetsu chikketo ni	On the night of new moon, special tickets
	Kiniro giniro kureyon de	With gold and silver crayons
	"Nyarth no paati"tte kaita nara	"Meowth's party" is drawn on them
	Kikyuu ni notte baramaku no nya	I'll ride in a ballon and scatter them, meow
	Kinkin kirakira yuuhi ga shizumaba	Before long the sparking sunset will sink
	Sore ga paati hajimari no aizu!	That's the signal that this party begins!
	Ginga no juutan shikitsumeta	The Milky Way's carpet spread out
	Yozora no paati kaijou	In the sky's the party meeting place
	Dare ga kuru ka nya daremo konai ka nya?	Who will come, meow? Will anyone come, meow?
	Dokidoki shinagara matteru nya	My heart pounds as I wait, meow

	Moshimo yume demo ureshii nya	Even if it's just a dream, I'm happy, meow

English

Bumbling and bumbling
Screwing up and stumbling
Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again
We're always stinking
It got me to thinking
And now Meowth has got the perfect plan

I'm gonna throw a party
Admission will be free
It'll be a snap
When they walk right in my trap

It's never been such fun
Stealing lots of Pokémon
Humans aren't invited
Cause I said so

Once they hit the dance floor
That's when they're done for
This is one scheme
Even we can't blow

Meowth Meowth Meowth
This party's so exciting
It's gonna be the biggest bash of the year
Meowth Meowth Meowth
Won't you tell us who you're inviting?
Anyone who's anyone is going to be here
Meowth Meowth Meowth
Oooh...this party's not for fighting

Ice cream for everyone
There's nothing to fear
At Meowth's party
Blast off at the speed of light
All but night only
No Pokémon is lonely
At Meowth's party
Team Rocket's not gonna fight
So move those feet
To the sound of the beat
At Meowth's party
Don't tell the boss
Not tonight

I wish this party could go on forever....

Trivia

• Meowth's Party was originally thought to be a GameCube game, as a music video (not the same as the ending animation) featuring the song with GameCube graphics was shown at a Japanese convention before the console's launch. However, the video was later included on Pokémon Channel, and was not made into its own game.

• During the party, Meowth sings Looks like Team Rocket's blastin' off again!, referencing the Team Rocket trio's common parting words.

• In Pokémon Channel, there are two versions, with a random chance of which one will show.

• In Super Smas Bros. Melee, this is referenced by the text of the Meowth trophy, and even by the trophy itself, which depicts Meowth holding the same red-and-white guitar.

Errors

• In the English dubbed version of the ending animation, the lyrics sung by Meowth do not always fit the way his mouth moves.
