A Gender determines wether the Pokémon is male or female in the Pokémon video games. Some Pokémon have a greater chance of being one gender than another, such as Blastoise which has a 87.5% chance of being male, but only a 12.5% chance of being female. There is also moves that will only work when Pokémon are certain genders. There were no genders in the Generation I games.

Genderless Pokémon

There are some Pokémon that have no Gender, usually because they are made of lifeless materials like metal. Some of there are Voltorb, Electrode, Beldum, Metang, Metagross, and Ditto. There are also no Legendary Pokémon with genders, except for Latias, Latios, Heatran, Cresselia ,Landorus,Thundurus and Tornadus.

Gender Differences

Starting in Generation IV, Pokémon in the Video Games sometimes had minor visual differences depending on their gender. Some differences were easily visible, while some are hard to see without looking closely. An example is Magikarp, the male Magikarps have yellow 'whiskers' while females have white whiskers. When it evolves into Gyarados, the males 'whiskers' are the same color blue as it's body while the females are a lighter shade of blue.
