Pokemon gender for Project M

Should we have gender-neutral pronouns for all of them, or go according to how the Project M team describes them as in their character pages? --Timson622222 (talk) 19:37, 21 November 2013 (EST)

I usually prefer "it" since we actually don't know what the gender of these Pokemon are. Dots (talk) The 80's 20:25, 21 November 2013 (EST)

I actually prefer 'her', as it's what the P:M team describes her as. So it's confirmed, at least in the P:M-verse. Jigglypuff the Magic Dragon (talk) 21:15, 21 November 2013 (EST)

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. In the PM ambit, Pokemon are referenced to as specific genders (while in the regular Smash universe, they aren't). The problem with this, though, is that this would cause inconsistency with the rest of the wiki. What does everyone else think? --Timson622222 (talk) 21:29, 21 November 2013 (EST)

According to Bulbapedia, it does have a 75% chance that its a female so calling it as a "she" won't hurt too much. But since it doesn't have a gender difference, I myself would prefer "it" to call Pokemon unless if one has a said gender difference or if a Pokemon can only be one gender.

Along with the aforementioned P:M lingo and 75% female, would the female costumes have any significance? Jigglypuff the Magic Dragon (talk) 21:48, 21 November 2013 (EST)

I think we should just drop the "it" from the Wiki altogether and go with the commonly referred to pronoun. SmashWiki is not official, so we're not obligated to go with "it". So change Jigglypuff's "it" to "her/she", and Pikachu/Lucario/Mewtwo to "he/his/him". Omega Tyrant 22:29, 21 November 2013 (EST)

I'm down with this. It'll be easier for everyone. — Jigglypuff the Magic Dragon (talk) 22:44, 21 November 2013 (EST)
