"In Blackthorn City, a woman is willing to trade her Rhydon for a female Dragonair. This makes Dragonair the only Pokémon to be required to be a certain gender for an in-game trade." This isn't really true, considering in the Generation I games, you could be asked for a Nidoran female or male, depending on the game. Should we add that in or remove this trivia?

Gender Trades

"In Blackthorn City, a woman is willing to trade her Rhydon for a female Dragonair. This makes Dragonair the only Pokémon to be required to be a certain gender for an in-game trade." This isn't really true, considering in the Generation I games, you could be asked for a Nidoran female or male, depending on the game. Should we add that in or remove this trivia?

The Nido families are two separate evolutionary lines. --ルレ 00:43, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
I know that. Doesn't stop them from having to be a certain gender for a trade. CherryParanoia 20:53, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
But only because they're single-gender! --ルレ 23:28, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
But it still makes the trivia inaccurate. "required to be a certain gender for an in-game trade." Nidorans are required to be certain genders for in-game trades. Maybe not in the same way as Dragonair, but it still makes the Trivia inaccurate. CherryParanoia 16:53, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
And of course I suppose you'd also include the Chansey-Aerodactyl trade in G2? --ルレ 17:34, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

"In Blackthorn City, a woman is willing to trade her Rhydon (G/S) or Dodrio (C/HG/SS) for a female Dragonair. This makes Dragonair the only Pokémon that is able to be more than one gender that is required to be a specific gender to be traded."

Now this statement makes absolutely no sense. Could someone fix it, please? I don't know what it's trying to say, otherwise I would. Eversist 01:46, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

I would argue that such a graceful and mysterious Pokémon has EVERY reason to be a play on debonair. See [1]. --AndyPKMN 22:16, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
