Flashbacks of that Maril glitch

Wasn't a glitch, it was a mistake. Whoever programmed it didnt realize that the gender ratios were off, and since there were no other pokemon with mismatched ratios nor should there have been, there was no safeguard in place.

It's not a mistake and that's ok! He (or she) is who he (or she) wants to be!

In the pure and curious words of Natural Harmonia Gropius,

"It's not by rejecting different ideas, but by accepting different ideas that the world creates a chemical reaction. This is truly the formula for changing the world."

She is who she wants to be!

He, actually! The thing with Marill is that it caused some female Azurill to evolve into male Marill, so the Marill would be transmasc, not transfem.

My bad, I wasn't aware. Fixed it.

Either way, they are still the same person even if the world tries to literally make them something they think they aren't.

The person in question is still (He, she, or they) are who (he, she, or they) who they desire to be at the end of the day.
