The Doe is a Pokégirl of small stature, one that only rarely reaches heights taller than five feet and with their other measurements similarly slight. The color of their hair tends to avoid the more outlandish colors, leading to them having a “natural” seeming appearance. They have hooves in place of feet, and their ears are set to the top of their head in a manner similar to those of the deer, and often twitch and turn in the direction of the nearest sound. Combined with their large eyes and disposition, these traits have lead to the Doe being considered to be one of the cuter Pokégirls around; a trait that caries on to their tauric form (which they generally much prefer to be in), where their lower body develops into that of a deer. Despite this, they grow no taller in this form, keeping their lithe appearance.

Although not very popular in the battling circles, Does are one of the most common Pokégirls to be found in homes. Does are almost universally peaceful and gentle Pokégirls, leading to them be accepted as one of the more attractive Pokégirls even in the conservative Leagues. They are for the most part patient enough to be trusted to watch children, and are generally regarded to be quiet, selfless, and shy Pokégirls. This shyness can make interacting with new people difficult; a Doe will typically be very skittish and nervous in unfamiliar situations.

When it comes to fight or flight, Does almost universally choose the latter. They are very nonaggressive Pokégirls, preferring to avoid conflict when it erupts. When forced to fight, and in a situation they can’t otherwise get away from, their small size and speed serves them well. Indeed, it is just about the only thing serving them in a fight; not only do they dislike fighting, they are usually just plain bad at it, with few offensive attacks and little force behind their blows.

Does tend to be rather submissive, so it should come as no surprise that they are willing to take part in virtually anything their Tamer wishes them to do in bed. That said, their gentle dispositions make them almost universally adverse to anything involving BDSM; light bondage is the very extreme to which they will take it, and even dirty talk during sex generally gets a negative reaction. When faced with a situation in which they are forced into or made to perform these sorts of acts (such as under their owner’s orders or if bound by one of the Domina line), they will attempt to use their S.E.P. and Aura of Cute in conjunction to get released.

Thresholding into a Doe is a surprisingly peaceful process. It is extremely uncomfortable, but nonetheless almost entirely devoid of pain. When the transformation is complete, the new Doe will be in her tauric form, and it may take them several days to get the hang of returning to their humanoid appearance.

Feral Doe are not a threat to anyone, and as such are often ignored by Tamers. They group together in herds when at all possible, and are protected by the Donna in the group. They flee whenever presented with a threat—which is often, as they are often considered to be prey by predatory Pokégirls. Tamers would do well to bring bright lights with them; Does have sensitive eyes, and a flash of light can freeze them in place for a short time.
