What's up with Mr. Mime?

Well as pokemon games come in Japanese first, i wouldn't count out Mr. Mime only being a Male counter part for a new female one from only thought. I think the reason why Mr. Mime can be both genders in the games is because in Japanese *ITS* original name was: Barrierd. So that the name does not confuse with gender at all. Thus making it male and female, but the stupid English translator decided it would be cute to call it a "Mr." Mime in R/B/Y because the way it looks and you know there wasn't to be any gender to be known for its kind, until G/S/C came, thus the creators made it both genders because its name didn't stand for just males. I have to say the same thing with Geodude.
 
Some people and I were disputing about this like 9 months ago. Now that I think about it, pokemon IS a japanese game and things ARE and probably WILL be different once they are americanized.
 
Milotic definately should only be female. Same goes with Gyarados who should be male only. They make perfect counterparts anyways.
