Wow. New female lead looks a bit weird. I bet the sprite will be okay though. I'll probably play as a girl in whichever version I get first. In the other I'll be a boy. =)

It's just too boring when you're stuck with only your own game cartriges to pick the same gender over and over again. I'd rather have a bit of variety.

hg....I wan a sacred fire ho-oh

wrong topic mate....

Anyways...
In SoulSilver (my main one) i'll be a guy, named Zach.
In HeartGold, i'll be a girl, named Delancey.
 
I don't want to start a flaming war here but that's the exact kind of justification I don't understand...

I don't want a war either. Sorry if I stated my opinion in a rude manner. I was just a little annoyed at the time, is all.

This is the way I see it: A person may be physically one gender, but inside they feel as though they are the opposite gender. I don't know firsthand, so that's the only explanation for feeling more comfortable playing as the opposite gender I can come up with.

That aside, what's with all the hate for Soul? D:

I think I'll play as the male like I always do, mainly because I am male.

male because my dad starts the game for me and he thinks that he will get a go also the female looks really weird.

The girl does look odd but her sprite is pretty cute. Regardless I'll play as a female since I'm female XD

Male. If it was Kris again, I would have probably picked female. Soul just... ugh.

Female, because I am one and I always play as the female character.

Defy gravity!

I'll be playing as the guy. I've just had a tendency to do this ever since you could actually choose between genders. I will likely (as I also tend to do) play as the girl whenever I should decide to replay through it.

But yeah, the guy character for me. Besides, he looks quite cool. : D

Male, after all my playthroughs of Ruby and Leafgreen I've tried playing a female. I just can't seem to feel it :\

Gold is the most awesome character anyway

Male. I've always played as the guy, so I'm not going to break the trend this time. Also I prefer the blue name font to the red.

And the instruction booklet suggests choosing the same gender that you are D:
