Who are you going to play as?
You get the chance to either play as a male or female in this game. Which do you choose and why?
|
I'm choosing female, because that's what I am. Haven't quite figured out if I want to go by my full name or my nickname...
|
I'm playing as a male. His name is not going to be 'Hipsta' in Pokémon Sun and Moon though. I decided to call my character Tren the 20th anniversary shorten form to 'Trendy' that and I want it to sound like more of actual name in-game.
I want my character to have a bit of me and his own personality. |
Male since I am male...
Probably name him something cool or cliche'd this time... Or since it's the anniversary 20th of R/B/G I'll use the first name I used... Grey... sounds dumb I know XD Or I can just whimp out and name him Cid like I always do... *sigh* |
Male. I always choose my own gender if it's an option in games so I feel more like I'm the character.
|
I'm playing as the female
|
I'm playing as a female and already thought of the name I'm gonna use.
|
Male for Moon then possibly female for Sun. I'm happy with the extensive character customization for these games, I just reaally don't like the designs of either protagonists standard design.
|
I'm playing as the female protagonist like I always do, since I'm female myself. Also, I actually don't mind her hat because I think she's really cute.
|
It's kinda odd for my choice as the starter I decide will affect which gender I choose, in my case: boy for Decidueye | girl for Primarina (not hate for Incineroar but... oh well)
So probably male for me since I'm a big fan of Decidueye right now while I like the cry of Primarina... |
Male, as that's what I am. But like in all previous games, on subsequent playthroughs I might choose the girl because sometimes it's nice to mix it up a bit. I nearly always call myself my real name unless I'm playing as the female protagonist, in which case I just choose a name that I like.
|
I always play male on my first run through of a generation. (or if I'm playing a remake)
If there's another set of games set in Alola I'll probably play as a female character. |

I'm naming mine Knyte of course! Why? I'm male and I wanna be fashionable in game. And for a lot of reasons I will not place here. Haha When I get Sun, I'll name whatever default name the female gets! (Hopefully Selene!) I'm picking female because I'm using male in my main run. hopefully I don't take a while getting a new 3ds though (mine's broken so I gotta get a new one) |
I'm male, so I'm going with a male character. I hope at least that we can modify the character, because I find that the character in the demo we play with has a blow up face. I would prefer that we could play with Red or blue, they've got a cool design.

Female with my usual Selina/Selinis name. For Moon at least, undecided for Sun.
|
I will play as the melanin enriched male. Because it matches me.
|
Ahahahaha. Ha. I think I might actually roll with the female protagonists this time around. I had both X & Y last time so I was able to be both, but I might only pick up one of them this time. I might Replay the game more than a few times, banking Pokémon as I go along restarting it.
|
I'm playing as the female as I always do, I love the design and am one of the few who thinks the hat is great. I'll be naming my character Reyes which is my last name. I was thinking about name her Timotei, after that one shower scene in Lucky Star. It's kind of become a thing in my household so I thought that would be cool.
|
Like most others, I'll choose the character of my own gender. I guess it helps project yourself into the game a bit more.
|
I'm going to play as the male protagonist since that's what I am. But I wouldn't mind trying to play as the female character. She's adorable and it would be something new to experience (yes I've never played as the female protag).
|
Rolling with the Female protagonist Because i like her design much more than the Male protagonist.
|
As always, I choose the female trainer, so it actually feels like it's me.
I don't look at them as their own character or their anime counterpart, just me with a different look every region or such lol |
I am actually playing as a male because I love his design this time!
|
Girl (since I am one) with my real name, like always. :)
|
Firsty, I am male and never took female in games,. I won't do anything new in these too, I'll go with male.
|
Will choose male for my character's gender just as I did from previous gens. Same goes with
the name of course. But since I'm going to play both Sun and Moon, I will choose female for Moon so I can see and feel if there's any notable difference. I'm still going to use my male name for her tho. :) |
I'm going to play as the female character in Sun and the male character in Moon. I'm looking forward to seeing the customization options for both genders.
|
Female, I am one and .. let's be honnest, buying women clothes in this game is so much fun :3
I do play some games as a male, like Harvets Moon where you have to marry someone and the females NPC are better than the males one usually. But for Pokemon I go with my gender. |
Male, since I am so.
Probably named Mute. |
I will play as male and will always do so for every future playthrough of SM. I'm sorry, but I can't stand the female protag. I think this is possibly the worst protag out of all the ones we have seen so far honestly. Thanks to her, I'm inclined to think the future of the humans of Pokemon are doomed forever. As a result, SM will the the only game together with BW2 where I will only pick male.
|
Playing as a male and naming my character William, as I always do. My name isn't William, I just like the name.

It's way more fun being a girl in video games, especially when there is customization. Plus, I can't completely let Primarina show me up...though obviously she or he will be put together better than my character either way.
|
Girl protagonist since Ive always chose the girl protagonist! And because I am a girl. Hate her stupid hat though.
|
Female. Always have always will.
|
I always choose the guy because I am a guy, and he has a good design this time as well so that makes things a lot easier too!
|
I will be going as a female and using the name I go by in real life, Nikki. It makes the game feel more personal now that we have character customization.
|
I'm going to play as a female even though i'm male because i'm feminine. Plus i'm sure females will get better fashion as usual. I need to look stylish.
|
I'm playing as a male.
|
I am going to be playing as the female and will be naming her "Sly".
|
Usually start with the male character for the first couple playthroughs, but they made the female protagonist just too damn cute this time; the adorable Z-move dances are really hard to resist.
|
I'll be playing as a female. My name will probably be Luna in-game since that's what I went by in ORAS as well.
|
I'll be playing as the dude since from what I've seen in some of the promotional materials and leaks, he may finally get some decent clothing options for once, unlike the Kalos counterpart.
|
Male because I'm a male, I've never really considered playing as the female.
|
Both.
They don't really ever have third gender options in these games. |
When I saw the title I thought there was an option to play as different characters or something
|
Girl for both. Old habit dies hard... lol
|
I might wait to decide. Since customisation is back, if the male character gets some good clothes this time I might use him. I'll probably play as a girl again though...
|
I'm planning on choosing chicken-chan the female protag, simply because her design is actually quite cute. Gamefreak really amped the moe factor this gen.
|
As a Snorlaxman
|
Female, both because I am female and I really like the female character design this generation (also, so excited for customization again!). I usually play as a girl because I just feel like I can immerse myself in the game more easily.
I also find the male character this gen to be really... boring for some reason, I dunno. |
