If a nickname of a Pokémon does not determine the gender, what about some of the other pages such as [[Dr. Abby#Johnny|these]] [[Orville|two]] as their gender was listed/determined due to nickname?

:Meg is part of a pair of nicknamed pokémon, not a solo act, and those nicknames are derived from the species, not the gender. It's definitely meant to be a close-sounding name to Mag, like [[Bailey|Belle and Bella]] or [[Brittany (Johto)|Gigglybiff and Gigglybuff]], and very likely ''not'' reflective at all of any gender; that's getting into a really grey area of assumption.
