In Pokemon Games, most Pokemon are both male and female, some are only one gender, some are genderless and others have one gender more common than the other.

But do you use a team that's:

Predominately Male
Predominately Female
Half Male, half Female
Include some Male, some Female, some genderless

Neither. As most of my teams employ mechanical/artifical/inorganic Pokémon, some of them are actually entirely genderless.

During my Gen III days, I was very annoyed about getting female Pokemon almost all the time, so now I play with the vast majority of my team being male. The exceptions are when the Pokemon is female only (or the vast majority of the time), and when I can't be bothered to spend forever trying to get that Pokemon when it's rare

I don't really mind getting no all-female teams anymore because I always seem to get a male starter in every game ;-; I always end up with the manly looking ones being female and the female-looking ones being male [I have a Female Krookodile in Black and I have a female Snorlax stored in Diamond from HG and in Crystal I had a female Feraligatr [The ONLY female starter I got and it was the least female looking XD]

It...kind of depends on the pokemon. Most of the time, if a pokemon is eaither male or female, I wouldn't mind what gender it is if it has pretty good stats, a good nature, and a good ability I want, sometimes I would prefer a female Hippowdon, because its colors look cool when its a female. And other pokemon, like female Milotic, or a Male Blaziken, I would prefer because its features and art work are different when they are males.

Half Male, half Female

I have a few teams I've used and I usually go with these two options, but I picked the latter on the poll because it's more diverse.

My Soul Silver (in-game) team has an even balance of male and female, while my current 4th generation team has 1 female, 2 genderless, and the rest are males. But what matters the most is what gender would suit their personalities and species (yes, I give my Pokemon personalities beyond just their nature/traits). My future White (competitive) team will probably be 4 females and two males by the way.

Usually my teams consist of two or three females, two or three males, and a genderless Pokemon. I do this so I have a work-around in case I run into a Pokemon that uses Attract.

I've played the entire game without ever taking any notice of the genders at all. It's only in the after game when I'm breeding to complete the Pokedex that I even bother to check.

That said, in Black and White I will only catch male Pidoves because the female Unfezant design is boring.

Idk... I usually end up with two of one gender and four of the other. But gender doesn't particularly matter when I catch a Pokemon; only if I want to name it something specific. :3

It depends on what I find.
for example, my ShinyGold and White teams are prodominantly female, wheras my HeartGold and FireRed Omega teams are prodominantly male.


I really think the [ROBLOX] admins are not satisfied with breaking the game, they intend to break reality itself.

I really just catch what I want, regardless of gender. So I have no preference, unless I absolutely have to have a certain gender for whatever reason. So...idk how my teams would add up, haha.

I tend to have mostly to all-male teams. I decide the desired gender for my pokemon based on whether I see them as masculine or feminine, and since most pokemon look more like males than females, I usually have all male teams. Though if I can't decide whether I see it as male or female, I tend to lean towards male.

On second thought, there are some Pokemon species that I like to have as a particular gender. For instance, I can't fathom the idea of female Charmander/meleon/izards... it's just a weird image to me. Just like male Gardevoirs weird me out.

If I'm just catching them for my Dex then I'm not really fussed. If I'm using them on my team however, I like the gender to be how I see them as that gender.
