Then do Bitch and Cassidy just have their own Meowth all of a sudden?

I think they do, and that's why they use different Pokémon so often. There are only a few we've seen them use more than once that might actually belong to them personally (Raticate and Houndour for Cassidy, Hitmontop for Butch). Other than those, I think most of their Pokémon are rentals.

That's another reason I'm not entirely sold on the idea of Meowzie throwing her lot in with B&C.

Raticate only said its name during their motto in its first appearance, but it was still, by far, their most frequently occurring Pokémon. They did tend to switch battling Pokémon fairly often, though-- first Hitmontop and Houndour in Johto, then Mightyena and Sableye in Hoenn, then Shuckle and...
