    I chose the girl in my Black version. The reason why is because where the girl looks different and separates herself from the rest of the female protagonists, the boy just looks rather basic and not unlike from any other male protagonist.

    Girl, because I am a girl and the one for B&W actually looks like she can stand on her two feet.

  • I play as the male, mostly because I am also a male myself.

    I've never felt an urge to use the female characters, and in B/W I feel no different.

    I'll be playing as the male protagonist. I usually choose the male protagonist becuase I am male, but in Emerald I liked the female protagonist better, so I chose her, plus my friend borrowed my game and restarted it to make me female >:C

    I don't like Touya/Black's pants, by the way. I do not like the color, and they're tight like Cheren's :3

    Sorry, but there are a lot of better things to *cough* to than a video game character.

  • I was originally going to play as the girl, but the influence of a certain webcomic led me to choose the male character. :3

  • Female. Her overworld sprite is much better than Lyra's. Lyra's overalls looked awkward. White, however, has an amazing design. I like everything about her~ <3

  • I almost never learn their names but both times I played, I played as the girl. I don't see them as different characters at all since nothing changes depending on the one you pick, but the guy's design is just... too generic? He's really boring, imo. Not bad or anything, but nothing special either. I loved the girl from the moment I saw her though so I'm happy to have her sprite representing me on the screen and having awkward ferris wheel rides in my place. :D

  • I picked the guy on my first playthrough. I restarted halfway through because I hate him. Chose Touko. Best Female Protagonist ever. Dunno why.
