    Do male and female pokemon have the same status like attack power,sp.d ect?
    or are females weaker? and males stronger or the other way around
     
    Why should females be weaker? You sexist you...XD

    They're completely the same, which ones are strong and which ones are weak is determined by their IVs, which are completely random. The difference between males and females only comes into play in breeding, where males pass on egg moves whereas females determine the species of the baby. ^^
     
    DON'T MENTION THAT IN FRONT OF SETO-GIRL! SHE'LL KILL YOU FOR SAYING GIRLS ARE WEAK! =P

    Yup, female and male Pokemon are both identical in stats. It only matters if you're trying to get an egg move or something.
     
    Gah dude!!
    Females weak?!*grabs bazooka but stops half-way*
    I'm over-reacting again...*sigh*
    Like the gender ever matters.
    Its what's inside that counts.^^
    Or for this case-
    The Attack,Defense,Special Attack,Special Defense and Evasiness.
    Egg moves too.
    And the level of the pokemon,don't forget about the levels!!!XD
     
    Females aren't weaker than males.. There're of the same status... The important thing is the way you train it.. Not that sex that matters.. Females tends to have better defence whereas males have better attack...
     
    It's not male and female that matters, it matters on the nature of the Pokémon if they're stronger or weaker than other Pokémon that are the same. Oh, and IVs and EVs too (although I'm still confused on that >>; ).

    Nope, nothing like that the stats are all determined by the nature, IVs and EVs. The gender only affects breeding (you probaly know it, but I'll tell you anyway: When you breed pokemon the father gives the baby egg moves while the baby will be of the same specie as the father, ditto is an exception though)

    In GCS onwards, in all games, male and female have the same stats, provided they have the same nature and EVs.

    However, in RBYG, stats in sexes do differ.
    A male compared to a female in the same species, the male would have higher Attack stats, BUT lower defense stats, than females.
     
    I can explain this normally female are the stronger ones.Since they have GV's
    Gender values which they are called are like this:

    Pokemon with GV's 1-127 are male,

    and 128-256 are Female.

    Pokemon with GV's of 0 are Mirage Island pokemon


    They differ on a pokemons gender except mirage island.


    Andf there are also PV's personality values.Like the Nature of a pokemon.

    And DV's

    are dynamic values.

    No? Why..? o_________o;

    Meh, there ain't seriously much difference in male and female Pokemon statwise. It only matters for attacks, breeding and egg moves.
     
    How about genderless pokemon like metagross if there are difference between male and female? Beside this is pokemon. Gender doesn't matter except for some skill and breeding.
     
    Look...

    In G/S/C, they added genders while still keeping compatibility with the older games. This meant they couldn't add a new value to base the gender on as Pokémon that originated in R/B/Y would have no such vaule, and thus had to base it on a value that was already there. Therefore, genders were determined by the Attack IV. The higher values meant male, the lower values meant female. The other stats, however, could be much higher in the female, or they could be lower.

    This meant that a R/B/Y/G/S/C Pokémon would simply be male if it had higher Attack and female if it had lower Attack.

    As of R/S, however, they ditched the compatibility with the older games and added a bunch of more values, which includes the number that determines genders.

    So yeah.
     
    =P But RBY Pokemon don't count as gendered, or at least to me. In that way, EVERY Charizard from RBY would be male, every Chansey would be male....

    And unless Mr.Mime had a lot of Attack strength (Psychic is SP Attack), it'd become a female Mr. Mime... Mrs. Mime... whatever.
     
    In games, they have no difference. But how about if Pokemon was for real?

    I assume that for mammal type Pokemon, there would be an alpha-male in a herd, which is stronger than the females of its species.

    But for insects... lets say Scyther, I think the female would be stronger, a bit like real praying matis's. Afterall, the female mantis eats the male after they're done mating...

    Haha, I sort of went offtopic.
     
    Er what..? They EAT their boyfriends? Now that's what a vampire does. Nice lines for Hallowe'en Kohei. ^^


    Well, Mew like I think is a female. But well.. Mew learns all attacks including Attract. What happens when you use it? Its genderless in the game..
