    Do you think in the future certain genders will be able to learn certain attacks? It could be possible, as we have gender issued evolutions.
    I think this will be true because we have gender issued evoulutions already such as male kirlia--> gallade.

    Post you thoughts.

    well, yeah, look at Froslass :D
    But I don't really think it will be useful because I only like male pokemon, if only female can have the move that male can't, it'll frustrating
    mind you, it's Kilia to Gallade not Ralts
     
    Technically, we already have some gender-issued attacks as you state them to be. Like mentioned above, Gallade is the male evolution of Ralts and compared to Gardevoir it learns a few different moves than its female counterpart.

    As for new moves being learned entirely for each of the gender differences between the Pokémon, I guess you can list it as a possibility for the future. Although, you could never be too sure as if any complications may arise through the process the idea would have to be scratched until later worked out, if ever. It's an interesting thought though, but for now we already have such a small idea portraying in some of the new gender evolutions since the fourth generation was released through DPPt.
     
    Generally, feminine-looking Pokémon are defensive while masculine ones are attackers. The stats are big giveaways. Take Latias and Latios. Latias' Mist Ball lowers Sp Atk, while Latios' Lustre Purge lowers Sp Def.
     
    I personally like the idea, It adds more uniqueness to each pokemon species, which i think would be helped if, for say, each pokemon learned its own ultimate move at a certain level as its last move
     
    It does sound like an interesting idea.
    My main concern, if I were at Nintendo with this idea, is that people might think it's sexist. If female pokemon can't do all the same things males can....
     
    Of course. Moves like chauvinist rush, and finger snaps would be totally awesome additions:D
     
    If Nintendo and co. were smart they'd anticipate some of the implications and stay away from the idea. Maybe it wouldn't happen in Japan, but you know, you know that someone in America would bring it up as gender stereotyping and depending on how the game handled it they might be right.
     
    Okay=

    Male Combee learning a honey gathering move to restore partner's HP in a double battle.

    NOT Okay=

    Female Kirlia learning a move involving co...You get the idea.


    It all depends on how you take stuff like this (*cough* *cough* Jynx *cough*), but in these days, just about anything you do will always offend someone.
