List of Pokémon by gender ratio

This is a list of Pokémon by gender ratio.

Most Pokémon are either male or female. However, depending on the species, players are more likely to encounter a Pokémon of a specific gender than the other. Gender plays a vital role in, as offspring inherit the species of the mother and compatible moves from the father. However, Pokémon of either gender can be used if the partner is a.

From Generation III onward, due to how the core series Pokémon games incorrectly determine a Pokémon's gender from its personality value, the ratios stated below are idealized approximations. From Generation III to V, Pokémon are more likely to be male than the nominal ratio; from Generation VI to VII, Pokémon are more likely to be the more common gender than the nominal ratio (1:1 is unaffected). Pokémon which are always one particular gender are unaffected.
