The Tomboy wasn't a pokegirl that was seen much during the Revenge War, really the only time the breed was encountered in large numbers was when human forces finally started to counter attack some of the pokegirl encampments at the very end. Records show they fought hard but not particularly well, and soon were brought in under human rule. To this day Sukebe's purpose for creating this breed is a mystery. The breed did show some popularity during the first few years after the war because of their very human appearance but then saw a steady decline in demand for the breed.

A Tomboy could look just like an Ingenue, if she chose to, but they tend to have rather specific preferences. Boyish, as some have described them, they're a little less curvy and a little more flat chested than the average pokegirl. Many say the breed makes up for this with 'spunk'. These proponents of the breed will still argue that they can be just as beautiful as other breeds, the phrase 'She cleans up nicely,' is often used. The problem is getting them to clean up. They show a strong preference to loose fitting clothing, practical shoes, and baggy pants. You're much more likely to find one with dirt smudged on her face than make-up, and they almost universally keep their hair cut short.

And they have a behavior to match their typical appearance. The breed as a whole seems more interested in male interests than traditionally female ones, earning them the breed name back before humanity had quite realized how obsolete traditional gender roles were going to become. It's rather interesting to note how well a Tomboy can get along with beginning tamers, since it's highly likely they'll share a number of interests. It's well documented that the breed often forms something akin to a friendship with their tamer, a relationship that is only disrupted by a single quirk.

Because the Tomboy sees herself more as 'one of the guys,' to use her own moniker, some of them develop the mindset that taming between the tamer and pokegirl isn't an appropriate part of the relationship. This puts her at odds with her nature as a pokegirl and can be the source of a great deal of internal conflict. Although the vast majority of the breed will have hardly any problem over coming this, a few notorious examples can be thanked for the constant downward trend in their popularity. Now the breed has something of a reputation to be completely against anything 'perverted' in nature, and reacting to these perversions in violent or aggressive manners. Again, among the breed as a whole this is a very rare situation to encounter.

Although she may be reluctant to show her feeling towards her tamer intimately, one place they always shine through is in combat. Psychic scans have confirmed that a Tomboy will fight with more confidence and gusto should she have a strong admiration for her tamer. They will do well in beginning matches if their tamer allows or even encourages them to learn a martial art where they can bring their enhanced strength to play.

The breed is known for its reservations against taming, exaggerated as the reputation may be. Entering one into a Sex Battle will most definitely put a typical Tomboy in a very awkward spot, and it'll take most a while to adjust to the idea. For those that do have the aversion to taming, there are a wide variety of reactions. Some will be very shy and embarrassed at the idea, similar to the Seraph breed. Others will argue against the idea for as long as their libido will allow them, and then sulk for a little while after. Very few are known to get violent, but if a tamer starts to notice aggressive behavior at the idea of taming, they're advised to invest in restraints or trade / sell away the 'girl.

Unlike many very near human breeds, the Tomboy is not fortunate enough to have a reduced feral state. They lose much of their ability for abstract thinking and problem solving, along with the ability to speak. This leads many that go feral to being preyed upon by the more predatory ferals.

Threshold into a Tomboy is common and also hard to notice the early signs of. It isn't until the increased strength starts to be developed that family and friends are given their first hint that the girl is changing. All Tomboy pokewomen mellow out dramatically from before their second puberty, although many will still wear pants over a skirt on most days of the week.
