    A Flarea has numerous advantages over its unevolved state. A higher strength capacity, more endurance and its fiery abilities are just some of those advantages. They also gain a stronger sense of smell and a more combative mindset, which Evas sometimes lack entirely. Flareas are sometimes considered slightly less affectionate Growlies. While they don't go well out of their way to show their affection, they do still show a lot more than most Pokégirls with lower libido.
    Most Flareas have an internal organ that acts as the source of their fire abilities. This Fire Sack (as some have come to call it) has an active temperature when the Pokégirl is at rest of near 1000 degrees. Therefore it has been suspected that they have a means of cooling themselves. Researchers speculate that their bloodstreams act as a cooling system since the ‘Fire Sack" is located near the heart. The blood travels past the organ picking up a small amount of heat after leaving the heart. Then as it goes on its way the blood slowly releases some of the heat into the body, this is thought to be a reason why Flareas maintain such a high overall body temperature.
    While it would be thought that having fur would cause a great deal of discomfort to a Flarea it has been found that the fur helps in the dispersing of heat drawing heat from within and venting it. However as a Flarea gets excited or worked up (though battle, taming, etc) their internal temperature steadily rises. In times of great duress a hazy aura will seem to envelop the girl due to so much heat being released through the fur. While this may worry some potential tamers it is believed that the amount of taming needed for this heat to reach dangerous levels (for the tamer) is pretty much unheard of, (speculated at approximately 14 hours).
