Did you ever get a female starter or Eeveelution?

    I just want to know if you got an Eeveelution or starter that was female?

    I had a female Jolteon in SoulSilver.

    Several female starters in SS (Totodile, Treecko, Mudkip, Torchic, Swampert and Marshtomp)

    I even have a female Lucario in that game as well.

    So give me your opinions!

    Hm, I usually SR for a female starter and Eevee. :] I just like having them as females more, haha~

    I normally SR to get them as females, but I reset Black yesterday, and the very first time I picked my starter, it was female.

    I got a female Chikorita/Meganium in Silver. One one of my runs in Silver, I got a female Umbreon. That was the only female Eeveelution I got in my years of playing Pokemon.

    I've gotten a few females because I restart my games too much... But lately I've actually been resetting for natures to match genders so I can pick cool names for them. Like I caught the thing that evolves into a Bisharp and it was male and Brave so I named it Excalibur for awesome. :>

    I only get female starter Pokemon when I'm soft-resetting for certain Natures. As for Eevee, I haven't exactly spent time breeding it for training. I do plan to get female Chikorita and Snivy, though, because they come off as looking more feminine than masculine to me..

    I honestly don't understand why Eevee has a higher likelihood to be male; it looks female! The only Eeveelution that looks male to me is Umbreon (and Jolteon, to a small extent). IMO, the starters and Eevee should have 50/50 gender ratios (in the case of Chikorita and Snivy, I'd prefer them to have a higher likelihood of being female due to looks), but it appears that the gender ratios were specifically constructed to make these Pokemon hard to breed.

    Yet all of that "gender ratio construction" goes down the drain if you catch a Ditto, which pretty much every breeder sets out to do if Ditto is available in-game. -_- However, I think the "gender ratio modification" plays a role in Generation 5, since only female Pokemon can pass down Hidden Abilities, and using Ditto as a father will apparently prevent said abilities from being passed down at all. I'm still confused about the Ditto+Hidden Ability issue, though. :\

    I got a random female chikorita in HG and a random female Snivy in White :3 Buut I SR for a female Eevee if it has a female looking evolution like Glaceon. Oh and I have a random female Blastoise in one of my games which I bred.... I didn't even know it was female at first but cbb breeding a male. I go for the gender on looks :3

    I actually don't think so. I'd probably end up keeping it regardless, but I honestly think all of them have been male so far. Always wondered why the starters especially had such a high likelihood of masculinity... doesn't really make sense in that none of them look more masculine than, say, a Geodude or something. The same goes for Eevee, really.

    I got a female Eevee in Platinum once through SRing. The first and only time I settled on a female starter was in Black, with Oshawott.

    You know, I never did when I was younger and would play. Back then, all my starters were always male. And back then I would actually try for a female starter. These days, I don't even try... and I've received two female Treeckos, a female Charmander (on my very first run through of LG), and a female Piplup (first run through of Platinum).

    To date, however, I have still never received a female Eevee.

    ETA: The Cyndaquil I got on my recent SS restart is female as well.

    This may be a stupid question, but I don't understand the Eeveelution part of this thread. Wouldn't it be the same gender as the Eevee from which it evolved?

    I've got three female starters: Snivy [white], Oshawott [Black] and Chikorite [HeartGold]

    I've got lots of female eeveevolutions, and my first one was an Eevee (It evolved into a Vaporeon) in Pokemon Platinum. :D

    I soft reset for Starter, and Eevee if I plan on using it. Though on Gokd or HeartGold, if I do a challenge of some sort, I choose Totodile for HM purposes, and it almost always turns out female.

    But yeah, I like my teams to be all female most of the time, and only have males if it's a low encounter rate or something. xD

    When my friend and I bought Black/White, we both got a female starter right off the bat, with no SRing or anything. It was hilarious. A 1/64 chance isn't that far-fetched, but it was unlikely enough to be amusing.
