WTF?!! Marill changes gender.

This is too weird. Apparently it has to do with Azurill's and Marill's gender ratios being different. It's one of the only pokemon that can have a sex change while evolving.

In other words "Mom! My Marill just grew a fucking penis!"

It's not really as much of a glitch as it is an oversight. Still kind of odd though.

That is the Azurill gender glitch, I made an article on the wiki about it about a month ago. Basically, Azurill has a gender ratio of 3 females to 1 male. Marill's gender ratio however, is different; and works out as 1 male to 1 female. As a result there is a one in three chance that a female Azurill will evolve into a male Marill, because gender is determined on the hidden personaility value.

If you consider a range of personality values which determine the gender of the Pokémon this range is smaller for say a male Azurill, but the range is increased when the gender ratio changes from 3 females to 1 male, to 1 male to 1 female, so there will be a greater number of values for a male Marill.

Lol, this was new to me hen I was playing Pokemon ruby before I owned a computer that could go on the internet. Thats when I spent all my money to amuse my friends when I was in summer camp.

Anyway, I saw the wiki artical a few days ago, and now, I am like 'Ohhh…' This wasn't news when it was the glitch, but it was cool to know why in happened after a few years.
