Purrloin (Japanese: ????? Choroneko) is a Dark-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves into Liepard starting at level 20.

Biology

Purrloin is a primarily purple, feline Pokémon. Its head has tufted fur on its ears and cheeks. There are long, tapered violet markings above its green, eyes. It has a diminutive black nose on its creamy muzzle, and a small, oval, cream-colored marking above each eye. Its neck, shoulders, back, and hind paws are also cream-colored. The tip of its tail has a curved, vaguely scythe-like extension. Purrloin is a quadruped Pokémon, but it can stand and walk on its hind legs as well.

Purrloin is a mischievous Pokémon that likes to steal from people. It will put on a cute act in order to get its victims to let its guard down. However, it is often forgiven even if it is caught stealing due to its charm. When angered, it fights back with its claws.

Trivia

  • Purrloin was seen first in the Pokémon Sunday special episode preview in September 6. It was later removed from the same preview, much like the revelation of Zekrom's secondary type earlier.
  • Purrloin is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 281.
  • Purrloin has the lowest Attack base stat of all Dark-type Pokémon.

Origin

Purrloin is based on a black cat. Its fur patterning, behavior, and feline influence suggest that it may also be based on a female thief, commonly known as a cat burglar.

Name origin

Purrloin is a combination of purr (a sound a cat makes) and purloin (to steal).

Choroneko may be a combination of ?????? choromakasu (to pilfer) and ? neko (cat).
