While both are popular choices as pets, it's not advisable to raise Togepi alongside a Purugly. Togepi's growth is dependent on the kindness of those that surrounds it, and while Purugly's brazen and apathetic demeanor is endearing to some people, the abuse Togepi endures as it repeatedly fails to earn Purugly's love will delay its development and hurt its feeling. For its part, Purugly views Togepi's constant displays of affection with annoyance. It usually attempts to ignore it, but if its patience is driven too far, it will bat at Togepi with a paw to send it running away in tears. However, it will only do this if it knows their master is not watching.
