why is Popplio 87.5% male??? for what reason??? the final evolution

1) This question has been asked so many damn times on here it's no longer funny.

2) Obviously the gender ratio is made to make it more difficult to acquire more of them via breeding.

>>29995889
no i'm still choosing Popplio, I'm just going to make sure it's female.

>>29995945
While that may be GF's justification, that reasoning falls on its ass when they make ditto obtainable in every game.

>Final evolution is a mermaid with fairy type, and a seductive looking face.
>Pokédex entry for Moon says trainer should keep daily maintenance of its throat.
>Gender ratio is mostly male

It's obviously a gay cocksucker Pokemon.

>>29996468
How have you not realized yet that GF is retarded.

Get used to it.

>tl;dr just because I buy Game Freak's games, doesn't mean I eat all of their shit

They've always made asinine retarded decisions and this one isn't any different. Even if the starters would get a half and half gender ratio, that would still be more than enough for me. But knowing that there's a 87.5 chance for me to get a goddamn male Popplio and realize that the evolutionary line looks FAR from it is bloody stupid and I'm supposed to believe this is all fine. I tolerated EVERY starter that looked even slightly female regardless of the gender ratio and regardless of which gender they'd get and plenty of wild shit and now, for some asinine reason, the Water type starter conceptually looks like a goddamn 100% female design with a 87.5% male ratio.

All I really have to defend this shit is the Fairy type it has and the usual treatment Fairy types usually get design wise, always looking either cute, feminine, pink or a combination of those and that's it.

Fuck it, I'll just pretend all male Popplios just want to go to the fucking The Voice to get acknowledged by their voice while they parade with the fanciest shit they managed to get plastered in their face because that's how it feels like whenever I feel like bothering picking a male Popplio.

Boys can be mermaids if they want to be anon

especially when selective genetics becomes a thing

Because fuck you that's why. GF knows full well what they are doing and are probably having a good laugh about it.

>implying feminine beings with dicks hasn't blown the fuck up over the past year

I mean, it's not my style, give me some good old vag any day, but it's still popular for some reason.

>>30001167
Probably because they hate having to reset dozens of times.

Also because Popplio got the rawest deal out of the three starters. Even in the anime both Rowlet and Litten get big roles apparently, while Popplio is relegated to a side character.

>>29995868
Real talk who's actually going to soft reset for this?

I personally don't mind what it is because I'll love it forever if it gets a good nature

>>29996468
>ditto obtainable in every game
Except in Ruby and Saphire godamnit.

>>29996468
difficult to acquire more of them via breeding early on

>>29995868
because human ideas of gender don't have any effect on how animals develop, and the animals came first to begin with, so your question is stupid

>>29995868

That's because Ruby and Sapphire is bullshit and requires you to get every gen 3 game to complete the pokedex

>>30001379
literally in the process of soft resetting for a female

hopefully this game doesn't do some shit like pre determine gender at the start of the game though, woof all these cutscenes

>>29995868
I've been resetting this whole time, still getting male this is shit

Why the starter choosing scene has to be so fucking long?!

>>30002517
>>30002520
let me know if you guys get a female, just want to make sure that it's actually an option and GF didn't fuck with it with their weird cutscene shit

This logic doesn't work when these are fiction creatures with human-defined characteristics that are designed by humans. Every single thing about Primarina is feminine, right down to it's name.

wat...

>>30002654
word. how many resets did it take?

>>30001379
I'll be SRing for a female Litten.

>>29995868
In-universe explanation (theory): The starters are critically-endangered species of Pokemon, so the females are kept in captivity while the males are given to trainers in hopes they can find any out in the wild.

Female starters slip by sometimes either because of incompetence, or because they were able to distribute one out of generosity since some shelters have more than enough females to watch over.

Like you all dont reset until you get a female starter

>>30002686

Eh, I didn't count but I spend like a few hours

I'm salty

>>30002686
6, good luck getting a female

>>30002749
>>30002744
6th try, just got it myself. Hoping I got a good nature

>>29995868
To make it "harder" to breed it, that's literally all there is to that, since Pokemon species are passed on by moms.

This is why the starters and Eevee and any other "rare" Pokemon have that gender ratio.

>>30002707
Doesn't explain why almost 9/10ths of Popplios born are male.

>>30002777
eh... quirky. oh well

>>30002777

I got good nature and female during first try

[also I once caught xerneas in first and only luxury ball, I thought it was scripted kek]

>Docile

I don't even care. Fucking cutscene is painful and first playthrough is for fun anyway

>>30002810
Plot-twist: Daycare knows when a Pokemon will be male or female before it even hatches, so they too keep female eggs to privately breed them. You get a female egg simply because of a slip-up.

(Only half-joking here cause you brought up a good point)

>>30002693
same

>>30003012
Well I'd guess it's just for the genuine "want them to be 'rare' so go-to gender ratio is 87.5% male" thing. GF is just too lazy and can't be bothered to do anything different, and maybe they also just enjoy shitting on some pokemon like that.

>>30002851
>good nature.

I thought all starters had neutral nature. Proofs?

I'VE BEEN RESETTING FOR HOURS FUCK THESE CUTSCENES RRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

>>30003230
Just use PKHeX and keep your sanity.

>>30002693
I ended up with a female litten. Bothered me at first but I'm over it. Was gonna go with Poplio but I'm planning to get a Mimikyu so fairy type will be covered.

>>30003244
i cant into

>>29997163
Pokémon aren't humans. All Primarina look feminine by human standards, but since most are male, then clearly they aren't feminine by Primarina standards. Since both male and female Primarina look the same, then its appearance is gender neutral.

>TFW resetting for female Popplio

Could be worse, I could be resetting for a shiny

I wish they would continue with the gender differences thing.

Pikachu seems to be the only significant difference.

>>30003340
are you saying males can't be feminine?
being feminine =/= being a female. read a book, faggot.

>Want good female Popplio
>Don't want to sit through the cut scenes

Sometimes there are things we've gotta do, though.

Welp, looks like I have a naming theme now

I now have a female Litten named Princess after five resets. =w=

Finally got a female.

Dunno what to name her, now.

I'm saying the logic that you can't apply human traits to an animal doesn't work when it comes to pokemon.

Now back to tumblr with you. My Primarina is female and there's nothing you can do about it.

If you don't, you'll have an imperfect Pokemon. It'll be forever like broken goods.

Why does every starter have to be 87.5% male anyway? What's the harm in breeding starters?

>>30003666
I think I'm going to go with the left-hand path on this one. Why shouldn't we be able to breed starters?
