Anglerfish
The Anglerfish is a 
Tier 6 Pet, available in the 
Puppy Pack. When bought, the Anglerfish gives a choice between 2 random pets from the last opponent's team, then adds the chosen pet to the current shop at 0 gold. Leveling up the Anglerfish will add more free copies of the chosen pet to the shop.
Anglerfish only includes pets that were on the opponent's team before the battle started, and will exclude other Anglerfishes.
Strategy
Anglerfish is a unique buy-sell enabler that allows you to "steal" enemy's pets to add to your own team. It's typically 1 gold for 2 buy-sell triggers, similar to 
Chinchilla, or 2 gold for 40% of getting exactly what you want. When playing against other packs, it's capable of stealing abilities not available within Puppy pack and can drastically enhance late game teams' strength. If the shop was scaled through the use of 
Canned Food or 
Chicken, the spawned pet will also be scaled.
Another obvious use for Anglerfish is to fish for 
Sloth. By having Anglerfish(es) frozen in the shop, should you encounter a Sloth team, you can then try to steal it from them, increasing the odds of getting a Sloth from 0.01% to at least 40%. High level Anglerfish will give you even more Sloths for you to fill the team with our furry friend.
Bear in mind that even if Anglerfish didn't pick the pets that you wanted, there are almost no reasons to skip the choices. The spawned pets are free and can be bought-sold to gain 1 gold.
