With backbiting remarks, witty cut downs, and sarcasm to spare; Fearleaders are usually not very popular with most Pokégirl owners, and upon evolving her attitude changes little, though her looks improve. With the exception of the Buffy subtype, many Tamers prefer to keep this breed from evolving, as they become harder to handle, with strength and abilities on par with most evolved Pokégirls to back up their nasty attitude. There was even a rumor once that Scareleaders evolved into Dark Ladies, though this has been proven false (much to the relief of many Researchers and Tamers).

Scareleaders gain the usual set of upgrades that come with an evolution, their bust size increases usually to a lush C cup. The once slender frame of a Fearleader now becomes athletic, keeping the leggy build but adding several interesting curves to it. Instead of black, their lips and sharp nails change color to match the varying highlights that the Pokégirl had in her pre-evolved form, as her hair now keeps a single shade. Her hair changes to a primarily dark color, but lighter shades are known. The breed as a whole still favors cheerleader outfits as well, but have been known to branch out into other looks.

Harem dynamics of normally tempered Scareleaders are often likened to keeping a nicer version of a Hyperdoll. These socially genius Pokégirls can often analyze a stranger through just body stance and a few verbal exchanges alone. And once a Scareleader has a good idea of what personality a person has, they can easily choose weather to set them off or embarrass them. Indeed, many Scareleaders would be considered narcissistic in the very least, with the more extreme cases being considered true psychopaths. With their social savvy, this makes them dangerous indeed. This ability isn't just used on strangers, as Scareleaders will often keep running mental logs of their own harem, and use all the dirt she has on her harem sisters to get her way. If not the Alpha, Scareleaders often plot to be the Alpha, scheming and using her Harem sisters like pawns to dethrone her current commander. Many Alphas can waylay this fate by giving the Scareleader a position within the Harem, be it training or cooking, as this focuses the Scareleader on a job and turns her attention away from taking over. When asked to train her Harem sisters, a Scareleader truly shines as she is just as useful as her previous evolution in 'inspiring' her Harem sisters to train long and hard and hone their battle skills to deadly effectiveness.

It is truly surprising when confronted with a 'Buffy' subtype Scareleader, named after a Fearleader who then evolved into a Scareleader who routed one of the first feral Vampire nests found in the Sunshine League. This subtype is nearly the polar opposite of a normally tempered Scareleader, socially intelligent while still caring for the welfare of others. These 'Buffies' are normally content with whatever position they have within a Harem, but do make effective Alphas or Betas, as they know how to give compliments and constructive criticism instead of just insults. Like their pre-evolutionary form, they also tend to be stronger than the average Scareleader due to their tendency to work out and train more. The only drawback to this subtype of the breed is their intense hatred of vampiric Pokégirls, followed by a strong dislike of infernals and ghost-types. It is rare for a 'Buffy' type to be in a Harem with a vampiric Pokégirl willingly, and even more unlikely for her to befriend one.

In battle both the normal and the subtype Scareleaders are intense in battle, keeping their concentration and usually acting as if they aren't even trying. Insults and jibes against opponents are common for both as well. Normal tempered Scareleaders do have a preference for staying out of melee and using their dancing techniques for long ranged attacks. 'Buffies' usually prefer close range combat, and tend to learn short range attacks if allowed. Unique to the breed is their Pom-pom Bomb attack, which the breed as a whole develops after evolution. Most normal tempered Scareleaders utilize a psychic and fire combo, while 'Buffies' tend to have an Electric and Ice combo. When in paired battles or grand melee, normal tempered Scareleaders act as a general on the field, commanding her partner or harem sisters while staying out of much of the fighting. 'Buffies' tend to wade into the middle of the fight, attacking foes as well as attempting to protect their Harem sisters and Tamer.

Feral Scareleaders keep the Bimbo level drop in intelligence of their previous evolution, but usually tend to be found out quickly due to their enhanced strength. Ferals also tend to use cheers at the strangest times, getting excited and giving impromptu cheers over random happenings like kattleburger commercials. Thresholding directly into a Scareleader is rare, but is marked by a changed in fingernail color and strength. Thresholders find it easier to hide their change in appearance, but the increased strength takes some getting used to and the accidental breaking of objects is a dead giveaway. Regardless of temperament, however, most Scareleaders are much more accepting of their situation and can be conformed to life in a Harem or other Pokégirl field quite easily.
