Talk:Gender: Difference between revisions

Line 260: Line 260:


Aside from aesthetic differences like character sprite, bag, Pokégear/C-Gear/etc., what in-game events, Pokémon, or items are affected by the gender the player chose at the beginning of the game? The only ones I can think of at the moment are the [[Nimbasa_City#Rondez-View_Ferris_Wheel|Ferris Wheel trainers]] and [[Nimbasa_City#Pok.C3.A9mon|Yancy/Curtis]] in B/W/B2/W2. The latter is a pretty big consideration since those in-game trades are the only way to get the hidden abilities of Meowth, Shieldon, Mawile, and Teddiursa (male player character) or Mankey, Cranidos, Sableye, and Phanpy (female player character) other than the Dream World (which will soon be shut down) or trading with other players (not everyone has a reliable internet connection). I haven't played X/Y yet, so is there even more gender-exclusive stuff in those games? ~ [[User:Katrinuh|Katrinuh]] ([[User talk:Katrinuh|talk]]) 13:16, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

== "Gender unknown" over "genderless" ==
This is what [[Pokédex 3D Pro]] (and maybe [[Pokédex 3D]], haven't verified) and the X and Y Postgame Guide/Pokédex calls Pokémon with no gender listed: "Gender unknown". Not "genderless", but "gender unknown". Thus, it may be incorrect to refer to such Pokémon as "genderless" if official sources say that their gender is unknown, and not simply having a lack of gender.
