    Just answer what's above. I think Ralts/Kirlia/Gardevoir should only be female, because they look more female than male.

    I also think Chansey/Blissey should only be female, unless they already are (I don't really catch them).
     
    I think the only reason Ralts line may have been male in the first place is so you could pass on special moves through breeding (they still could've made it 75% F 25% M, y'know?). For the most part though, whenever you see them they're almost always associated as females, mainly fan art.
     
    I would really have liked for Mr. Mime to be purely male, but in Japan it's name doesn't indicate a gender, so instead we get a Mr. Miss situation. I think Milotic should only be female, cause it just doesn't look like the type of Pok?mon you'd expect to see a male of (perhaps it's a bit sexist, but it's the truth). But that'd mean all Feebas have to be female too. However few there are...
     
    I think that ALL pokemon should have a male and female gender, because if people are like me they only catch pokemon according to their own gender; a male only catches male pokemon and a female only catches female pokemon.
     
    Here's a list of the Pokemon that are always one gender.

    Always male: Nidoran (m), Nidorino, Nidoking, Tyrogue, Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, Hitmontop, Tauros, Volbeat
    Always female: Nidoran (f), Nidorina, Nidoqueen, Chansey, Blissey, Kangaskhan, Smoochum, Jynx, Illumise, Miltank

    My question is, especially to the always male line, is how did they breed before Ditto came along?
     
    I guess Tyrogue was adopted...

    Back on topic: I think legendaries, other than Lati@s, should have genders. Here's a list of them-

    Mewtwo: Male
    Mew: Female
    Celebi: Female
    Moltres: Male
    Articuno: Female
    Zapdos: 50% of both
    Entei: Male
    Suicune: Female
    Raikou: Gold/Silver-Female//Crystal-Male (It looks different in Crystal)
    Ho-oh: Male
    Lugia: Female
    Rayquaza: Male
    Jirachi: 50% of both
    Groudon: Male
    Kyogre: 50% of both

    Deoxys and the Regi's should be left Unknown.
     
    Yes, I do, they're called Hawaiians :-p
     
    The males only could breed with Ditto, or a female version of it's type, and the baby being male. So... If a Hitmonlee mated with a Jynx, if the baby was male - it'd be Hitmonlee, but if the baby was female, it'd be Smoochum. In Gold and Silver - the Abra family were all male as well. It's weird :/
     
    That's not true, in GSC the Abra family were 75% male. I was also under the impression Eevee were always male as well, but they have the same odds as a starter (1 in 8 chance) of being female.

    And don't forget that if you breed, the female determines the type that comes out the egg. So, breeding a Hitmonlee with Jynx, as in your example, would just make a Smoochum. It makes you wonder where all the female Hitmons went in the first place - after all, they can have female Machamp.
     
    I think Clefairy & family should be female only

    and the geodude and onix familes should be male only
     
    Obviously, some of us has never seen a male spider, or a female bee... males don't necessarily to be tough looking. The male spider is puny and weak, even useless. The female bee dominates over the males completely, for bees have a society that's pretty much all female.

    The gender's just fine with me... though I personally will even throw Kangaskan, Chansey family and Tyrogue evolutions into the male/female pile... it's just sexist...

    For females can be tough and strong. And males can be so vulnerable at times...

    Err... I read that if it was like an Illumise/Volbeat breeding ting of the time. In cases where one of the parents was gender specific, it would be the gender of the child which would determine the actual Pokemon. I remember this works because I did a Hitmonlee and a Jynx to get some more Tyrogue. I got 2 Smoochums before I got my first Tyrogue. Also - how could Abra and co get eggs moves of the time? I remember my Jynx teaching Ice Punch to the newly hatched Abra when it came out. ^_^
     
    The whole breeding thing with the Hitmon pokemon and Jynx is too confusing for me, which is why I don't raise them.

    Plus, I know that males don't have to be tough looking, but it's just that some Pokemon look more like they should be female, like Bellosom or Gardevoir. I never meant for this to be sexist, but it's just a question i've been wanting to ask.

    I know this is off topic, but does anyone know if there is any Pokemon that Gardevoir can breed with? I can't find anyone besides Castform.
     
    not sure if these have already been said but

    mr mime = male
    drowzee = male
    snorlax = male
    jigglypuff = female
    chansey = female
    belossom = female
     
    On the whole Bellossom female thing, that would mean that all Oddish, Gloom and Vileplume would have to be female as well. Somehow, I don't think Oddish would be best sutied to having only the one gender...
