[SIZE="a"]I'm wondering if gender is important to you. For me, some pokemon just don't fit as male. Like Espeon or Glaceon. They both seem so elegant and etc.[/SIZE]
I like my Pokémon to have whatever gender they look like they'd be (i.e. Froslass would be female).
I really don't care too much when it comes to genders, since I'm one that doesn't really put in a lot of effort in breeding Pokemon. The only time I really pay attention to gender is if I'm trying to catch a Pokemon that has a different evolution based on their gender (ex.: Froslass). The only other thing that gender affects for me is what I nickname my Pokemon.
I generally catch whichever gender I trip over first, unless I've planned specifically otherwise or have breeding plans. Sometimes I do go out of my way to get the least "appropriate" gender for the sake of amusement; screw the rules, I like my Gorebyss male. :'D But really I can't see how a Pokemon's gender can be terribly "unfitting" or "disturbing", especially when it comes to the more animal-like ones. In the real world, animal genders aren't viewed that way. Male peacocks are colorful and elegant, female bears are hulking and physically powerful, etc. Each Pokemon species is just that: a species. Most of them have both genders so both genders work just fine to me.

Well said. I personally find it funny with my female Mankey or things like that, but it's not like I'm avoiding it. I capture whatever gender I meet first and if it seems weird then it's that much more special.
