    So I bought both versions of the game. I started my Sun playthrough with Popplio and got a female on my first try with no resets. Then I used my Moon copy to give myself the other two starters. Rowlett was female the very first time, and Litten took only 3 resets.

    Is anyone else finding it this easy? Also the Eevee I hatched from the free egg at the daycare was female as well. I plan to breed a bunch of starters and Eevees for wonder trade, and try to improve the quality of wonder trade a bit.

    The chances haven't changed. You're just very lucky.

    It took me multiple resets to get a female Rowlet, but the Shieldon that I got and the first Salandit I ran into were female.

    Ooh, lucky at the Salandit. I haven't gotten that far yet. I've been spending too much time breeding and evolving haha.

    Like ShyRayq said earlier, you're just extremely lucky. My Popplio ended up being male and other than my one female Mudkip in Ruby, I always end up with the extremely common male starters.

    My Popplio is a female~First try.

    When that happened for me, I was wondering if Popplio's gender ratio was more female, since it has very feminine looking evos. I was surprised when the other two were female so quickly as well

    Nope. Popplio is 87.5% chance of being male like every other starter.

    I get a ton of female starters. There's only 3 that I can think of that were male out of about 15.
