Topic	I try not to catch female pokemon in pokemon games
Solar_Crimson 01/02/23 6:10:31 PM #12:	Yes, if that's your reasoning, then it does make you sexist. TurtleInFreedom posted... o_O Did not know that. Because Gold/Silver was built on top of Red/Green's foundation, they used the Pokemon's DV's (IV's back then) to determine a Pokemon's gender, as well as whether or not they could be shiny. This had the side-effect of having female Pokemon have lower Attack stats than their male counterparts, because gender was determined by the Attack DV. Also, because of this and the aforementioned shininess, some female Pokemon outright could never be shiny legally. Of course, they completely overhauled the core mechanics for Ruby/Sapphire, so this is no longer an issue. --- 11/8/2022 - The day the Blue Wall intercepted the Red Wave. <cite>Solar_Crimson posted [p:970574971] in I try not ...
