Evolves From: Any pokegirl via a process known only to Sukebe, Passed down upon the death of the Paragon.

One of Sukebe's greatest and most closely guarded achievements was the Paragon Template. This process was said to 'enhance' the genetics of a pokegirl, making the recipient of this lost process a born commander. These enhanced pokegirls were used as generals to Sukebe's armies, to plan and execute attacks in his name. Though the exact process remains a mystery and the only Paragons alive today are chosen by other Paragons or still living from the Revenge War. Few Paragon subjects have allowed themselves to be examined outside of simple interviews, and as such, a majority of knowledge has come from the Paragon Bimbo named Minmei, who received her template as part of one of Sukebe's first successful experiments of the template.

Paragons are a step above their sisters of the same breed, with Longevity, access to magical talent (if their breed didn't have it before), and a sharp increase in their mental abilities. For all of their increase in leadership ability, there is no visual difference between a Paragon pokegirl and their non-templated breed sisters.

Some of the more well known Paragons are those that were active during the revenge war, such as the Danu the Burning, a Paragon Zodiac; or Amaterasu the Paragon Sparkanine. Others include the famous (or infamous) Paragon Megami-Sama Athena and the Paragon Psilady Artemis. Though the exact number of Paragons is unknown, even liberal estimates put them at less than 5000 worldwide. Conservative estimates put the number closer to 1000.

Known Paragons have been notable figures throughout world history, such as Paragon Athena, who transformed herself into a monstrous G-Splice. The attitudes and taming preferences of any Paragon remain largely either individual or mimic closely their base breed's preferences. Battling tactics typically favor a Paragon's strengths and minimize weaknesses. Paragons are natural leaders, and to keep one from the Alpha position is to squander their talents. Ferality in the breed has also been reduced, often being akin to Very Near Human types, in that a distinct loss of focus and lack of concentration is noted.

The original process used to place the Paragon Template on a pokegirl was lost by Sukebe, though Paragons themselves are able to make a magical sigil upon willing pokegirls which will allow them to become templates when the holder of the template dies nearby. This sigil is unique to each paragon, and the paragon may mark multiple pokegirls with it (it was used during the war as a badge of honor amongst the armies). Though any one pokegirl can only have 1 sigil. However, upon the Paragon's death, a pokegirl that has the sigil will gain the Paragon template, the template transferring in a flash of light. If there is more than one sigil bearing pokegirl in the world, the process seems to be random with a preference to the closest one. If there are no pokegirls with a sigil, the light disperses as a pillar into the sky and comes down upon a pokegirl closely bearing the previous Paragon's temperament.

Threshold has also been deemed an impossibility due to the way the template is transferred. The only human ever to receive a sigil and live happened to be female, and she thresholded immediately after. All male volunteers during initial studies had 'catastrophic explosive or dissolving injuries' that led to their intimidate deaths. Researchers have not found any willing volunteers to attempt any further studies, though note that the sigil can only be placed on willing subjects and therefore prevents this Template from being a menace class threat.
