Male or Female Pokemon

[MyTh]

Which did u catch and train?
Male only, female only, or both?

I have always used males, it's like a tradition thing lol.
Guys use male pokemon, and girls use female pokemon.

I caught females only to help fill up the pokedex.

How is that tradition?
Sure, I play as the Boy, but I don't usually care which gender the Pokes are. There is no real big difference in it anyway.

[MyTh]

Every NPC in the game uses the same gender, i was joking about it being a tradition.
It just doesn't feel right too me.

[Bing]

Idk, there are some pokemon that feel better as male and some that feel better as female.  But for the most part I don't really care.

[Mr. Fox]

I would prefer to run female, as Attract is very annoying and most people run it on female pokes.

This I'll agree on. I do for some weird ass reason ALWAYS get a Female Torchic in Emerald (The few times I actually choose Trochic). But I feel that a Female Blaziken are just wrong D:

Now that you mention it, back in the days of Pokemon Gold and Silver (The originals), I used to always go for male pokemon instead of female. IDK why, it was the same either way, but I did.

Back in the day female pokemon couldn't have max attack.  It was changed in later gens but, that's the strange truth.

I didn't even know that back then, so...

Yeah.
And.
Stuff.
And.
Things...

Basically, for whatever reason, I always caught male pokemon instead of female. I actually remember doing the same thing in FireRed.

I went into Viridian Forest. First pokemon I see? SHINY WEEDLE!

*Checks gender*

"Female...Maybe I can find another one."

*Runs away, and continues to spend the next 5 days trying to find a Male Shiny Weedle*

I ended up restarting my game, and found ANOTHER Shiny female Weedle in the same spot. Again, didn't catch it.

Seems like every time i battle a wild female pokemon it has more hp/def than the males.

lol^ I still do the same thing.

[Yume Tsuki]

I just catch whatever I find I want. There is an exception for those moments when pokémon like sneasel/snover/etc appear, then I catch the gender which design I like the best. ~

[Desbear]

I just catch whatever gender of the poke I find, but I refuse to catch a male Ralts if I play on evolving it into gardevoir, that would be wierd...

 Usually gender doesn't matter in that aspect. If it seems to have more stats, it is because of the IVs. Anyways I just catch whatever comes my way, except for the Nidos. There it really matters which you chose, since Nidoking has better Attack and Nidoqueen has better Defense. Since I like my Nidoking, that's the only Pokémon I will always care about the gender.

[Mr.Dodo]

In the beginning i dont mind which gander is Pokemon. I only care when i want to breed then catch female Pokemon for the Pokemon and male for first attack

[reoen]

When it comes to my walls they are usually female because of attract beyond that i dont mind my fav poke are neither male or female...so
