Purrloin is one of the best partners recommended in The Complete Thief’s Handbook, but with a warning. Purrloin even steal from their own Trainers, so keep incriminating evidence out of their reach.

Battle Trainers don’t tend to like Liepard, but they’re extremely popular with Contest Participants. Their beautiful fur and ability to lie make them perfect performers. If that doesn’t do the job, they can always steal the Contest Ribbons afterwards.
