The only reason they tend to go after smaller outlaws is because big ones can be pretty scary...
Also, kinda unrelated, but I wanted to mention that the Braixen and the Weavile in this pic are a friend's characters. They live with their human owners in a tiny neighborhood right next to a huge forest, and they're good friends with the Nidorina and Charmeleon, who live out in a Pokémon village in the woods. The four of them like to hang out with each other when the humans aren't around, and sometimes they even go on dungeoneering adventures together, so long as the two domestic 'mons can be convinced to.
Anyway, the only reason I bring all of this up is because the Braixen's name is also Pepper, and I think that's a funny coincidence.
