Here's why:
* Gender is determined by the game code: Each Pokemon's gender is decided at the moment it's created, whether from an egg or a wild encounter.
* GameShark and Action Replay: While these devices can modify game data, they can't specifically target gender. They are generally used for things like:
* Unlocking items: Obtaining rare or inaccessible items
* Boosting stats: Increasing your Pokemon's level or stats
* Changing the game's difficulty: Making the game easier or harder
* Accessing hidden areas: Finding secret locations within the game
What you can do:
* Breeding: This is the most reliable way to get female Pokemon. You can breed two Pokemon of the same species, with one being female, to increase the chances of hatching a female offspring.
* Finding wild females: Some Pokemon have a higher chance of being female in the wild. You can try looking for those specific Pokemon to increase your odds.
* Trading: If you know other players, you can try trading to get female Pokemon.
Important Note: Using external tools like GameShark or Action Replay can potentially corrupt your save file or lead to unforeseen consequences. Use them with caution, and always back up your game before making any changes.
Remember, the best way to enjoy Pokemon is to experience the game as intended and enjoy the natural process of catching and breeding Pokemon.
