This strange Pokégirl was accidentally discovered in 93AS when a Tamer and his harem, fleeing from a feral attack that had set a building ablaze, were crossing through a farmland. The fire spread to a nearby field of hemp, creating a great deal of smoke.  The Tamer and his girls were dazed by the smoke, but the Cactora he had with him evolved, becoming a Toca. After taking her to a researcher and doctor to try and figure out what happened, he continued on with her as before, being fond of her despite her change. Research, mainly on curious volunteers, has concluded that only Plant element Pokégirls that do not have a sub-type (such as Poison or Magic) can become Tocas.

Upon evolution into a Toca, a Pokégirl loses any plantlike or animalistic features they may once have had, becoming almost human in appearance. Ranging in height from around four to six feet, the breed usually have modest breast sizes of around A to B cups. The breed's other looks run the gamut of the human norm, from skin dark to light, though their hair colors may run out of traditional human ranges into greens. The one distinctive feature of this breed is that their eyes are constantly bloodshot.  They also have a preference for wearing baggy clothes. Tocas range greatly in height, hair color, and bust size, though the pokegirls themselves give off a distince odor that can't completely be washed away. It seems that cannibis is in their very makeup, and the pokegirls themselves are always somewhat buzzed, even when they haven't had anything to smoke. Indeed, THC is constantly present in their bloodstream to some point, which is why the pokegirl's eyes stay bloodshot.

Tocas, while relatively easy to maintain, are not very popular Pokégirls. They have a tendency to use their Command Plants ability to grow more hemp to smoke, and the smoke they emit, while unable to evolve Plant-types (only hemp grown in a field can do that, for some reason), tends to stone out other Pokégirls as well, meaning that the majority of Tamers who want Tocas are stoners themselves. Officials in some Leagues have talked about banning hemp from being grown, but fears of illegal drug trafficking, as well as memories stirred up after reading about the results of Prohibition in the old American Empire have quashed these thoughts.

However, Tocas do have some saving graces.

As mentioned before, they are easy to maintain, capable of eating pretty much anything given to them. They also have low libidos, meaning that they don't have to be tamed as often as some Plant-types.  In addition to this, the breed as a whole is also very friendly and good-natured, quickly making friends and even capable of getting along with regular Plant-types, who are for the most part very uncomfortable around them. They also have the unique propensity for abstract thinking, often coming up with ideas or schemes that sound crazy, but often work. Tamers should be warned about following all of their Toca's ideas, however, as when the plans do backfire, they do so in a spectacular fashion. Also of note, is that when it comes to making tools with which to smoke pot with, a Toca is unparalleled in her creativity able to make things like pipes and waterpipes out of everyday objects like used pokeballs and straws with liberal use of tin foil and a dash of duct tape.

Unfortunately, Tocas also have an interesting personality quirk in that they will not, under any circumstances, work for a cruel or evil Tamer. If captured by one, they will wait for a chance and escape, more than likely taking as many of the Tamer's Harem as they can along. They will give what girls they have to a Pokécenter and report what happened before heading off on their own. Sometimes a NurseJoy will convince them to stay for an examination and basic checkup, although this usually leads to a taming session between the Toca and NurseJoy. (NurseJoys have a genetic quirk in them. Marijuana smoke, like the smoke a Toca emits, makes them incredibly aroused.) Due to this sense of 'Most Rightous Justice' that the breed has, they are usually not found in conservative leagues. Some of the breed are also prone to paranoid behavior, though this varies by individual.

In addition, they are surprisingly capable fighters, although nothing compared to a fighting type Pokégirl. The breed can take hits from stronger pokegirls, though most prefer to get their opponents incapacitated by saturating the area in a Pot Cloud, or by using their Hunger Aura or Vertigo Aura to creative effect. Most also use the abilities they had before they became Tocas in order to give them an edge in battle. Dirty tricks and off the wall tactics are often used by the breed during battles, making them rather unpredictable fighters. This often gives them the edge against rote fighting types, negating their weakness to their Normal element.

Tamers should note that Tocas keep their preferences of their previous forms upon evolving. Due to this fact, it is a good idea for Tamers to know the evolution history of the pokegirl, and read the corresponding entry. For those rare Toca that have come from threshold or parthogensis, the preferences of the mother are often noted, but there are more variations in this subset of the breed than of those who have evolved from another plant type pokegirl.

One prominent case of a Toca being useful is the Alpha of a Tamer named Silent Bob. Her name was Jay, and she was famous for her seeming inability to SHUT UP. Silent Bob, who was never recorded speaking and preferred to let Jay to the talking, only ever had one Pokégirl, as Jay's constant chattering about whatever was on her mind at the time drove off whatever girls Silent Bob captured. However, this didn't deter him, as he was happy with just Jay in his harem. The two went through a series of what could only be called 'misadventures,' culminating in an encounter with Zapdass, the defeat of a Team Rocket variant, and the winning of the WAPL championship. Silent Bob and Jay held the title for almost a year before their defeat, the two retiring a year later, Jay evolving to Pot-Cunt and having three children.

Threshold into a Toca is rare, since usually the girl will threshold into other pure plant types. Of the rare thresholds directly into the breed, the pokegirls usually know a few more techniques than are listed, and have the ability to easily learn most plant type moves.

Ferals of the breed are known to wander forests, usually growing hemp plants to eat instead of smoke. They tend to raid farms and other places, or prowl along roadsides and steal food from unwary travelers. When confronted, they respond with a Pot Cloud or Vertigo attack and flee while their opponents are preoccupied.
