    What is your opinion on gender differences? I personally really like them, even if it's just a little change. Of course, gender differences like Jelliscent and Pyroar are also really cool, but in general, they show that not every Pokémon of the same species is the same. I kind of wish that every Pokémon would have gender differences, but oh well...

    I like the gender differences! They give some Pokémon a unique spin. c:

    It adds more variety and reality to the game which I think is a really great concept.

    I think it's interesting, and to be honest, it'd get a little boring if there was only one design for each species of Pokémon.

    I really like the differences because it makes each Pokémon a little more unique. It makes me really happy to see things like lipstick or even just little changes in different things like wings and such.

    I keep running into female Hippowdon and thinking they're shiny.

    And then I realize I'm just dumb ^^;

    I like the gender differences they're really cool and interesting to see the differences for the Pokémon that do have differences. It does make sense though that not every Pokémon has differences between genders as not every real animal looks completely different between the two genders.

    I think it's a nice touch. Though some don't make much sense, like, even female Sawsbuck have their giant antlers, hehe. And why does male Torchic have a random dot on its butt? Who knows. But like I said, it's pretty neat, anyways. c:

    I like there's differences in some Pokémon just like there is IRL, is a nice detail that varies depending on the species. Some are very obvious while others are more subtle.

    Pikachu has such minor differences, but then we get really major ones like Pyroar. I've always liked the gender difference Pokémon, they're unique and really cool.

    I'm kind of pooh-pooh about gender differences, considering not every Pokémon has them, and most of those that do aren't easily noticeable. However, my favorite difference is the heart-shaped tail on a female Pikachu (as compared to the flat-ended tail of a male one.)

    I like them a lot but really wish they were more prominent. Most Pokémon don't have a difference between genders and if they do it's hardly anything noticeable unless you're Pikachu, Unfezant, and the like. Would have been lovely if it were expanded upon design-wise and maybe brought in other things like stats and natures.

    I like it. It helps me see the difference, and not feel awkward when I call a he a she or vice versa.
