Boy or Girl?
Who will you be picking as your default character? Since there is no trainer customization this time I'm going to be picking May.
|
I'll be playing as May, of course! I'm playing as a girl because that's what I am, and because I was a girl the first time I played Sapphire. I will probably play it again later and choose Brendan, though.
|
I'll be playing as Brendan! I've never played as a girl before.
|
I like Brandon's outfit a bit more but I want to change it up this time and be a girl.
|
Look at my avatar and tell me who I'm gonna pick. :P
I'm gonna be May. I usually choose the female on my playthroughs. |
Definitely May!
|
Girl! Love May, and I haven't played as a boy since Crystal :/
|
May of course, because I am a girl myself and I always play as the girl characters.
|
I'm going to play as May, as I am female myself. I have played as Brendan twice in the past. however.
|
This is a tough pick for me. I always played May as a kid, because I liked how sporty she looked. Now she looks more like a girly girl, while I'm a man... which could be taken in the wrong way.
I'll probably end up picking May because I'm going for a nostalgia trip on these games. |
Both are two of my favourite protagonists so it's hard haha, although Brendan's one of the few male protagonists that could sway me (the other being Ethan/Gold), I'll be sticking with May and my own gender this time around haha :)
|
I was really set on picking Brendan when I found out about ORAS, now, I just might pick May. I guess I'll find out when I actually get to that part of the game. hehe
|
I almost always pick the girl, just because I feel I can relate to her more.
However, I have never really liked May's design and I reaaalllly like Brendan's new design so I might just switch things off and pick him. After all, the only game I've played through to date as a guy was Emerald, so I might just go with him for nostalgia reasons too. |
I'll be picking the girl and naming her Alli, as I always do. I really like Brendan though so I'll likely pick him when I get OR later on. I'll probably go with the name Eoin.
|
I'm going to be Wilhelm. I think that my gender speaks for itself. I'm obviously gonna be a girl.
|
Boy in Alpha Sapphire for my first play through, Girl in Omega Ruby in my second play through. I'll be naming them after their default names so Brendan and May respectively. :3
|
I will be picking May since that's what I picked on my sapphire and emerald versions way back when. I'm probably gunna name her Kimmy, as how I did in sapphire.
|
Definitely going to pick May, now that she's possibly getting a Mudkip based on the ORAS anime trailer.
|
I'm a boy, so I'm going with Brendan.
|
I'm going with a boy, for obvious reasons. {XD}
|
I'll be picking Brendan of course :)
|
I might play as Brendan once again, because I'm male.
|
Brendan because hair hat.
Actually, it's more to I want to use May when I get Alpha Sapphire, since I'm getting Omega Ruby first. |
I always end up choosing the female trainer, but I think I'm going for Brendan in my first playthrough seeing that I like Brendan's design more than May's.

Ill be choosing Brendan because Im a guy and i have never chosen the girl.
|
Girl, because May is simply bae. Brendan is cool and all, but May is bae.
|
Going with the female with Janna as her name because that's my real name. Hard to be anything else nowadays, just feels so.. foreign. So excited!

|
Brendan. Cuz video games are for guys.

|
I'm gonna pick the girl character like I always do and call her Star or Stralend didn't decide yet XD
|
Why not both?
OR: Girl-May AS: Boy-Nick |
I'll be picking Brendan when I start my ΩR adventure although I think he will go by a different name ;)
In the past I've tried to play as a female character but I have found I can't quite enjoy it as much, mostly likely due to the fact I'm male! |
Quote:
Oh, it's a danish word for poop. I do, however, suspect that's not what you meant. :P As for which gender, I'm not quite sure yet. I thought I'd be picking May but...hmm. |
boy. jeez im not a girl why would i pick may?
|
May for sure. Not only is she my favorite female protagonist, but her look this time around is super cute!
|
Obviously picking May, she's a huge advancement from R/S/E. She's incredibly adorable. Brendon is meh.
|
I'm picking Brendan just because of the whole Norman sub-plot. It just doesn't feel as competitive when a dad is battling his "Little Girl". It's more epic for me to dethrone him as his only son lol XD
|
I'm grabbing both versions, so I'll be using both. I intend on Brendan for my main however.

I'm a male, so I'm going for the male chracter
|
Male. I only every switch sexes if I'm playing through the game again, my first play throughs are always me playing as the male sex
|
English OR: Girl, Emma (main game)
Eng AS: Boy, Alex ((?) Not sure, using bf's name for now) Jap OR: Boy, don't know yet. Jap AS: Girl, Emma (Other main game) I always play as a girl called Emma in my main saves since I'm a girl and Emma is my name, then with spare saves I play as a boy and just pull a name out of thin air. |
i will be choosing brendan for that awesome headband
|
I never got crystal(I had silver so i didn't get a new pokémon game) so in ruby i could choose a girl for the first time and i just loved the female's design. After that i never choose the female again just because I didn't like their design. But i will go for female again this time.
|
As someone who has played as the girl basically every single time in Emerald... I actually think i'm gonna choose the boy for the file that i'll keep bred stuff on and go for completion, while i'll likely play as the girl for fun playthroughs.
|
I know I said I would be picking the girl but lately I've been digging Brandon's shorts so I don't know ANYMORE! XD
|
I'll likely play as a girl, for variety's sake.
|
It'll likely be May, as I'm a much bigger fan of her. Very used to her, as I've found myself constantly seeing her in anime back when Advanced Generation series was still airing (during then, I used to be a big follower of the show, but now, not so much), and in general, her character was great, and I found her to be pretty easy to get attached with. Although this does not relate to the games in any precise manner, it still does raise my likeness of this particular character. As far as name goes, I'll probably either keep her default one or go with Ashley, which is my real name; haven't fully decided yet, unfortunately.
I will definitely be playing-through with Brendan at some point, however! Perhaps in my second run. |
These kinds of situations are always very interesting. I've noticed that the older men of these communities in these games will often times pick the female characters, while the younger men tend to pick the male character of the game.
Just a random thing that I've noticed with my friends, and how people I've met in other communities seem to react; which has always left me curious. My assumption is that people just prefer to play as something they aren't. Moving on from my previous statement. My character of choice this game will be the female this time around as I played as the male character in the previous game. My choice alternate in each generation. (All Generations before the Girls) Boy Crystal: Girl - Sapphire: Boy - Emerald: Girl Fire Red: Boy - Diamond: Girl - Platinum: Girl Soul Silver: Boy - Black: Boy - White 2: Girl X: Boy - Omega Ruby: Girl |
In Alpha boy in Omega girl
|
I'll be playing as May! :D I always play as girls and she looks awesome!
|
Chose a guy because that's what I am.
|
I will definitely choose to play as a girl, as always when this was made possible since Pokemon Crystal ^_^
I am a girl myself, so this makes me somewhat feel more "connected" to my game :3 |
I chose May, as I am female. I am very content with her new sprite, too! She was so ugly before, and now she's the cutest little stubby blob <3
