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 Ditto.

From Generation III onward, due to how the core series Pokémon games incorrectly determine a Pokémon's gender from its personality value, the ratios stated below are idealized approximations. From Generation III to V, Pokémon are more likely to be male than the nominal ratio; from Generation VI to VII, Pokémon are more likely to be the more common gender than the nominal ratio (1:1 is unaffected). Pokémon which are always one particular gender are unaffected.

Male only

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

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 some other Pokémon normally not found in the wild.
