If all Legendary and Mythical Pokémon were given genders

-all female. An odd idea for me, I guess, but these three are just quite girlish to me.
4.Mewtwo
-male. Melee plus anime help reinforce the idea.
5.Mew
-male. I see Mewtwo as male, so therefore the being he was cloned from must be male, too.
6.Raikou, 7.Entei, 8.Suicune
-all male. Entei helped reinforce this, because of the 3rd movie.
9.Ho-oh
-female. Same with Lugia below, Ho-oh being linked to the sun brings to mind Japan's sun goddess Ameteratsu. So Ho-oh is a girl, I guess!
10.Lugia
-male. For some reason, I just think "Budda" when I see Lugia. o_o; So that makes him male in my eyes. I'm so odd.
11.Celebi
-male. Because the founder of Serebii.net is a guy. HAH JOKING. No real good reason other than "all chibi-legendaries" are male for me.
12.Kyogre
-female. To counter Groudon, I guess. Plus women always have the advantage over men, mwahahaah -bricked-
13.Groudon
-male. Even I can succumb to gender stereotypes once in a while. ._.; Groudon is too physically imposing, poisoned by testosterone.
14.Rayquaza
-genderless. I guess I have the "3rd guy" as always genderless.
15.Jirachi
-male. following the chibi-legendary tradition of mine.
16.Deoxys
-genderless. Or simply unknown. I can't decide what gender Deoxys could be. Maybe his planet is full of genderless beings. D:
17.Uxie, 18.Mesprit, 19.Azelf
-all male. Just because they're cute doesn't mean they have to be girls. And pink doesn't equal female, Mystery Dungeon.
20.Dialga
-female. The higher-pitched roar makes me think Dialga might just be a girl.
21.Palkia
-male. Pink does not equal female. Plus is cry is very deep compared to Dialga's.
22.Giratina
-genderless. Giratina is a dead dragon. A ghost of antimatter; gender doesn't really matter that much to the dead.
23.Manaphy
-male. Even if he's not the official chibi legendary of Shinnoh, I still see him as male. Ditto can always be the girl. o_o;
24.Darkrai
-male. He is counterpart to Cresselia in everything: new moon VS full moon, nightmares VS dreams, etc. I complete it with M VS F.
25.Shaymin
-male. His Sky forme really helps me make this decision. Looks so boyish to me.
26.Arceus
-genderless. For me, Arceus could be anything he wants: he can be a god or a goddess.
27.Victini
-male. Again following my "all chibi-legendaries are male" for me.
28.Cobalion, 29.Terrakion, 30.Virizion
-all male. Like the real Musketeers they were based on.
31.Reshiran
-male. So what if Sugimori said he sees Reshiram as "feminine"? Feminine does not mean "female". Because of how yin-yang works in real life, I see Reshiram as simply a feminine man. A pretty boy in other words.
32.Zekrom
-female. Yes, despite how manly and cool Zekrom is, I honestly believe Zekrom is a female. Plus it ties into the yin-yang theme: black is girl, white is boy. Zekrom, for me, is simply a masculine woman.
33.Kyurem
-genderless. He is a "void", or is "nothing". Like Giratina before him, I believe Kyurem really doesn't have a gender because he is the leftover material of his fellow trio.
34.Keldeo
-male, like the rest of the Musketdeers.
35.Meloetta
-male. I refuse to conform to gender stereotypes. ._. Pokemon aren't human beings. Just because they LOOK like a human girl doesn't mean they are. For all we know, Meloetta likes how they look and decided he could look like one too.
36.Genesect
-male. I'm not sure why.
