Last time we looked at what the Stoutland family might be like in Pokémon GO. But now it's time to move from dogs to cats, and take a look at Purrloin and Liepard.
PURRLOIN
ATTACK: 98 |
DEFENSE: 73 |
STAMINA: 121 |
MAX CP: 722 |
LIEPARD
ATTACK: 187 |
DEFENSE: 106 |
STAMINA: 162 |
MAX CP: 1846 |
PLACE IN THE META: Liepard is the precursor to Alolan Persian. Comparing it to everyone's least favorite fat cat, Liepard is more offensive than it, with less Defense and Stamina. Alolan Persian's added defenses will probably make it superior to Liepard in Great League. And Liepard's unremarkable stats won't allow it to be useful in Gyms or Raids, meaning this Pokémon will probably collect dust in your inventory.
