    It is generally accepted among Researchers that Sukebe designed this breed of Pokégirl after he created the Legendary Three Flying Pokégirls (Articunt, Moltits, and Zapdass). During Sukebe's War of Revenge, however, rumors (quite possibly started by Pokégirls under Sukebe's orders) claimed that a Rack was an "immature" version of these tempting nightmares.

    During the war, Racks were infamous among soldiers in the infantry. This was due to the fact that their most frequent use was in airborne attacks against "soft" ground-based targets. The fact that Racks often acted to support ground-based Pokégirls meant that soldiers were never certain if they should concentrate on the Rack, or prepare themselves to face something like a Hound or Tigress.

    Racks were, unfortunately, too good at what they did. Their ability to dodge most small-arms fire resulted in Racks becoming high priority targets for the anti-aircraft weapons used during the War of Revenge.

    While they were not decimated to the point of other breeds of Pokégirls (like the Griffon) Racks are not a common sight.

    A Rack's body is covered by very short brown feathers, which is the same color as their hair, nipples and eyes. Rather than wearing clothes (unless ordered to, or due to the weather), non-feral Racks love to use varies dyes in their feathers. They generally choose greens, as well as other shades of brown, when possible. Individual Racks will favor different hair styles, but most prefer styles that will ensure that their hair stays out of their eyes. No Rack has ever been discovered that had any pubic hair. Unlike most other bird-type Pokégirls, a Rack's wings are actually separate appendages, and are not part of her arms.

    Racks have clawed feet, with a single back-toe per foot. A Rack's B-cup breasts often seem larger, due to fact that Racks tend to be four and half feet tall; and no known Racks have ever been more than three inches taller (or shorter) than this average. This might account for why Racks, even though they dislike clothing, love high-heeled shoes.

    Once humans learnt how to tame Pokégirls and turn them against Sukebe, it was often stated that Racks were a lot like 'fighter jocks'. While they have a mission to accomplish, a Rack will focus on that mission with an almost frightening intensity. However, when a Rack has a chance to relax or (even better, in the Rack's opinion) opportunity to do something pleasurable, the Rack will throw herself into that activity with at least as much vigor as any mission. Like most Pokégirls with wings, a Rack prefers to be on top of her Tamer. With Racks, however, this preference also seems to be tied into the breed's sensitivity regarding their height.

    Racks are best used against ground-based Pokégirls. A Rack's eyesight is particularly sharp when looking down, even when a significant amount of distance is involved. More than one Pokégirl has been unpleasantly surprised, during their first fight with a Rack, over just how far a Rack can accurately aim their Feather Shuriken attack. Their eyesight, combined with the Rack's amazing agility while airborne, allows for most ground-based attacks to be easily dodged. A Rack's chances against another Flying type Pokégirl are much lower, but a well-trained Rack will keep her cool and use her agility to help counter the superior speed of most other Flying type Pokégirls. Any Tamer who's Rack has successfully beaten a Flying type that day can be all but assured that their Rack will want to be tamed that night, and be extraordinarily passionate during that taming session. Although it normally requires someone looking at some history books to understand the full implications today, most agree with the comments attributed to one of the first Tamers to have a Rack in his harem: "They're like attack choppers, and they love being able to beat other flying Pokégirls as much as the chopper jocks love beating a fighter pilot!"
