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 breeding, 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 Formling.

Male only
These Pokémon only appear as male. As a result, these Pokémon are incapable of producing offspring of the same species without Formling or a female counterpart (in the case of Jellitot♂ family).

1 ♀ : 7 ♂
These Pokémon normally appear as male, rarely female. This specific gender ratio is used to make it more difficult in breeding more of them since players usually get them as gifts or Fossils rather than catch them in the wild. All starter and Fossil Pokémon are in this group, as well as most gift Pokemon.

1 ♀ : 3 ♂
These Pokémon usually appear as male, but can be female.

1 ♀ : 1 ♂
These Pokémon have an equal chance of being either male or female. The majority of Pokémon fall under this category.

3 ♀ : 1 ♂
These Pokémon usually appear as female, but can be male.

Female only
These Pokémon only appear as female.

Genderless
Pokémon in these lists are not assigned a gender. The ones in this list can breed only with Formling. All Legendary Pokemon in Rikoto are genderless.

Unbreedable
These Pokémon are genderless and cannot breed.
