The SDXL-derived family trained on tagged art datasets that became the standard base for stylised and semi-realistic adult image checkpoints.
Pony Diffusion XL is an SDXL fine-tune trained on a very large tagged dataset with explicit content included, which made it the base of choice for adult checkpoints in 2024–2025. It uses tag-style prompting and score tags, has excellent pose and act vocabulary, and a huge LoRA ecosystem. Realistic Pony merges (cyberRealisticPony, ponyRealism, uberRealisticPornMerge) are among the image models running on MyBabes.
