But be warned, there's only a thirty percent chance of getting a female Starter, so you might have to restart quite a few times...

Neth__Exactly! Yay for Fire-Types. : DDD

If it's a thiry percent chance, wouldn't four times be enough?

That's if number theory actually worked. neutral

No, that means every time you restart you have a 30% chance. That chance doesn't change no matter how many times you restart. You might get the lucky 30 your first time, or you might never get it, because the percent doesn't change.

Don't you just love the rule of probability?

I know that... I've never tried it before. I just thought that there would still be a 1 in 4 chance if it's 30%, even if it is that way every time you re-start.

Okay, just for anyone who wanted to know, for FR/LG, all you have to do is save right before you choose your starter pokemon. Then shut off and turn on until you come up with a female. It works *JUSTgot a female bulbasaur*

I'm assuming it'll work for shineys, too, so I'll see how long I can deal with shutting off and turning on for a female of each and/or shineys. I'll be dead soon, so I doubt I'll get any shineys. Now what to name my female bulbasaur...LEMARCHAND! Ah, me and my Hellraiser obsession...

Why for is Zeeky sad? I got a female charmander too. It's easy. But I changed plans, so now I'm restarting millions of times to get shineys. I'm starting with shiney charmander, just because it's the easiest to tell is shiney, I think. Yellow instead of red. We'll see if I ever get it. sweatdrop

Huh? I only meant I'll be dead from restarting so many times. I'm not ACTUALLY gonna be dead soon. (At least I hope not) I have to start reviewing my posts before I post them, I guess. sweatdrop

I don't know if I want to restart... I've worked hard for what I've achieved! gonk
What I think they should do is make two or three files on which you can save different games. That way, you could have a permanent file and an experimental file. 3nodding

My starter in Leaf Green, Charmander, was a female. That was on my first try too! I guess I just got real lucky. I wasn't trying for it or anything. I didn't even think about it, or notice it, until later, then I was like O_O Cool.

that the samething that happen with my LG but instead it was a female bulbasaur. what are the odds smile

Apparently pretty good ... I got a female Bulbasaur on the first try too. wink

*grumps* But I wish I wasn't stuck as a Lass for my Union Room appearances .....  

[vauny-vaun]

I tend to chose the title pokemon...
for example in blue i always chse squirtle and in red i choose charamander ( i think this is cos in yellow you don't get a choice and are stuck with the title pokemon)
in silver I usually go chickorita cos its cute and you need to use cut so very much. and mmmmm
