    • This has been a huge poll in many forums. So many people argue over this *lol*
    What gender do you think Ash's pikachu is?

    I've always thought of him as male. Pikachu is not girlish, he is just very friendly and sweet in his personality. I think Ash would get along and understand a female Pikachu, but i think there bond's particuarly deep 'cause Pikachu's a boy. I think his voice sounds more male. He also seems to like some of Ash's female friends for eg. Misty, he gets along with her in a really affectionate way.

    I dunno...sometimes I think Pikachu is male, but other times I think Pikachu is female. Also, I am highly aware that Pikachu blushed around Kasumi's sisters--but does that really mean anything? People say Chikorita is a guy, yet it loves Satoshi. So in the end, I guess it could be anything. XD

    Personally though, I like to think of Pikachu as female. I don't know why...maybe because I'm use to the cute ones being female and tough ones being male. But hey...*shrugs* that's just me.

    Uhh no Jolt, we're talking about Ash's Pikachu here ^^;;
    I've always thought of Ash's Chickorita as a girl, it loves Ash and has a more girly attitude imo. It irritates me when people say that he's a boy 'cause some people can be sexist about Ash's pokemon x.x He's allowed to have female Pokemon =p

    @ James - Well, i belive Kasumi's Togepi is a boy, Pikachu always did get along with him in such a sweet friendly way, but i think it was just a close friendship. Alot of people say Togepi's a girl though =/

    • For reason's I have yet to understand, the creators of the anime don't really like to label any Pokemon with a gender, unless you know that particular species is always a certain gender or it's blaringly obvious (such as Totodile being male for falling in love with a female Azumarill/eyelashes on some females).

    In most cases, even the pre-determined gender Pokemon still act pretty average, and even they are still refered to as "it".

    I assume that the reasoning behind this is that so it's open to interpretation for everyone. I don't know how setting a gender brings everyone down, so to speak, but they must have their reasons.

    As for Pikachu, I'd say it's a male based on a lot of past experiences. That being said, though, the creators still keep you guessing.

    Pikachu is a male. He is the best friend of Ashy Washy. let`s me think,
    Pikachu had a crush on Jessie and Misty, so he can`t be a girl^^

    Pikachu should have a crush on you, because you are the most wonderful girl on the world!

    Pikachu is a little, sweet boy for me. he says sweet "Pika" all the time and its my favorite pokemon ^_^ he is a boy because, how Casey said, he had a crush on Misty and Jessie and Ash calls him "his buddy".

    Do you think, only girls like perfume? I think, guys like perfume also. Everybody likes nice scent^^

    I agree with you Casey. Guys like and wear perfume too =p Perfume's a kinda sexist thing but it's cool on guys aswell. Just depends on whether you like to wear perfume or not. I think Pikachu liking it does not make him a girl, he just loved the scent. Well, each opinion to their own XP

    Everybody can say own opinion about Pika`s gender. Don`t blame people for that! If someone thinks- Pika is a girl, its his own opinion. People don`t have to agree with you all the time.

    Ok. Pikachu is a male. Ash referred to Pikachu as him and he many times in the show. If it makes you feel any better, I have a feeling that there will be no doubt by the end of the series.

    • I personally think Pikachu is male. Sure he acts kinda girl-ish sometimes, but does any1 remember that old epidsode with that one valley of like, a billion Pikachu? Some of the voices on those Pikachu's were much higher than others. Maybe this can shed some light on the answer?
