Trivia

• Liepard is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 446.

Origin

Liepard appears to draw inspiration from species of wildcat that appear to have traits of both housecats and leopards, like the {{wp|leopard cat}, ocelot and serval. It may also be based on a Savannah cat, a hybrid between a domestic cat and a serval. It also slightly resembles a black panther, because of its dark coloration and the fact that spots on a panther's coat can be seen if examined closely.

Name origin

Liepard is a combination of lie and leopard.

Lepardas is a combination of leopard and πάρδος pardus (Greek for leopard).
