>Zacian and Zamazenta are the same species, the female doggo is fairy type and offensive and the male doggo is fighting type and defensive, both can gain steel as secondary type by holding a sword and a shield respectively
>Solgaleo and Lunala are the same species, the female cosmic is ghost type and special oriented and the male cosmic is steel type and physical oriented, both have psychic as the main type and evolve from the same pure psychic type pokemon
Isn't weird Xerneas and Yveltal don't follow this trope too? They surely look different, but the same applies to Solgaleo and Lunala, and the rest would make a lot of sense if they were indeed gender counterparts
>Xerneas is caring, sensible and fond to give life, its letter is the X (like the female chromosome) and has the same exact stats as Yveltal
>Yveltal is violent, pugnacious and fond to steal life, its letter is the Y (like the male chromosome) and has the same exact stats as Xerneas
