    I'm trying to get a female Togepi and i was just wondering, is the Togepi's gender determined as soon as you get the egg from the aide or as soon as it hatches?

    I'm pretty sure that it determines the gender when hatching :cool:
    Ps: I have a female Togepi in my Crystal

    Not trying to be mean or anything, but i didn't make this thread so that you could share your success stories.
    I really need a solid answer for my question. But, i have come to the conclusion that... the only reason i keep getting boys is because Togepi has a 87.5% chance of being a boy and a 12.5% chance of being a girl.

    If it's been a male every time, the proof is already there that its gender is decided when he gives it to you (assuming you tried at least 20 times to make sure).

    I was acually talking to erbe3. All he said was that he had a shiny Togepi, you actually said something useful.
    Either way i gave up, now i have a male Togepi... wait, swap the M with the L.

    I have a LAME Togepi. :P

    jelous? :cheeky: im also truly sorry that your spending your day trying to get a female togepi, it must be so painful busting your ass starting the game over and over isnt it

    Yeah, but i decided that a male one isn't all that bad. I'll just evolve it to Togetic, get a Ditto and start breeding.
    Doesn't Ditto breeding just result in offspring the same gender as the parent that is the 'actual' Pokemon? I didn't try it much but I only ever got males when I tried it with a male Farfetch'd and a Ditto. o_o;

    I don't think so, when i bred a male Magmar with a Ditto i got a female Magby.

    The egg is preset i think.
    Its decided after you get the egg, like all other eggs.
    and i am still trying to get a good nature Exeggcute on my firered.
    if it weren't preset, i wouldn't complain would I?
    and Nanako Nanashima, the gender chances are still the same if you breed a pokemon and ditto.

    any paticular reason why you want a female?

    or are you just sexist? :D

    No, i'm not sexist. I just like certain Pokemon better as certain genders.
    As in, i have a male Quilava because i think it suits it better and i have a female Flaafy for the same reason.

    I just think that Togepi is more feminine, thats why i wanted a female one.
