:::One thing that does work against me is that the P:M page refers to it as a he, and I used that same logic to support Jigglypuff being referred to with female pronouns and as a she in general. — [[User:Jigglypuff the Magic Dragon|Jigglypuff the Magic Dragon]] ([[User talk:Jigglypuff the Magic Dragon|talk]]) [[File:Jigglypuff_the_Magic_Dragon_sig.png]] 08:38, 22 November 2013 (EST)

In the end I don't really care either way, but here's my opinion:
*Don't force "it" for playable Pokémon, but don't force "he/she/etc" either. Keep consistency, but don't change for the sake of change. (Somewhat like the English variant spellings.)
*Keep the "it" stipulation for non-playable Pokémon and when talking about playable ones in a non-Smash Bros. context.
