What happens if I use Thief on a Wi-Fi battle? Do I keep my opponent's Pokémon Item? And can I use it after the battle? [[User:Portuguese Old Man|Portuguese Old Man]] 16:11, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
:I don't think you can keep it, as I believe items reset state after battle to prevent loss of rare items and such. [[User:Gywall|<span style="color:#FF8800">'''Gyw</span><span style="color:#FFAE00">all'''</span>]]<sup>([[User_talk:Gywall|Talk]])</sup> 11:40, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

what if you knock out the pokemon with this attack, do you still get the item that the foe was holding?[[User:Darkcloud1111|Darkcloud1111]] 08:03, 31 August 2008 (UTC)Darkcloud1111
:Yes, I tried this at Rubin and Gold-Edition. It would be nice to have a list here, which thing you can steal where. I think this is also important for the [[Trick_(move)]] and the [[Covet_(move)]]. I like to make a list of items, which can be stolen and how great is the rate. I know some things so fare: Slowpoke: about 5% rate for getting a king-stone at Gold-edition and at rubin you get:
Numel, Vulpix: RAWST BERRY (about 80% ?)
Sandscrew: Quick Claw (rate probably under 10% about 10 killed and 1 get) 
Linoone (wild) , Picatchu (from Trainer): Oran Berry (about 50% ?), 
Linoone: Sitrus Berry (about or under 10%)
Duskull: Spell Tag (about 10% ...so fare 30 killed 3 get)
Spinda, Whismur: CHESTO BERRY (probably less then 10% killed lots, got one)

== Gen IV ==

The article doesn't mention the certainty of stealing a held item in Gen IV. Is it the same as Gen III, or do we not know? [[User:Jazzmoth|<b><span style="color:#0000cc">Jazz</span><span style="color:#ff3300">moth</span></b>]] 00:01, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

== Success rate of Thief ==

Where's the source for that? [[User:Ht14|<span style="color:#D5AA00"><sup>'''''ht'''''</sup></span>]][[User talk:Ht14|<span style="color:#C0C0C0"><small>''14''</small></span>]] 16:10, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
