Male pokemon trainers voice just sounds....weird compared to his voice in brawl. While the female pokemon trainers voice goes with her artwork and she's cute.

I've always preferred playing as the girls In Pokemon, so that carries over to Smash.

Neither are important, I'm just here for Charizard and I'm trying to ignore that the Pokemon Trainer him/herself exists.

The girls are extremely cute but I usually play as the male one because I'm biased because I am Male, but I'll vote for no preference because I honestly think the girl looks better, it's just that I don't choose her.

Wondering when I was an edgelord.
I like Red well enough for his design and actual lines, but the new voice is definitely.....odd, especially compared to his Brawl voice. Leaf's design is cool too though, and her voice is pretty great, along with being a new option, when we used to only have color swaps for Red, so I sorta put up with the discolored Pokemon for that. I like both enough, and Red's voice is growing on me a bit, but I do prefer Leaf's overall.

Between Red & Wolf, I am glad that Megaman's a mute so at least 1 of my mains isn't completely horrible to listen to.

I like Red and Leaf both of them are cool to me. Outside of Smash I like Red slightly more though for Smash I prefer Leaf since I cannot stand the Ash-sounding voice they gave him and the voice they gave Leaf fits her in my opinion. Honestly I kind of wish they got Bryce Papenbrook to do Red's lines in this game but I know Smash Bros just love to reference the core anime series more than anything else.

While :ultpokemontrainer: will not be my main or secondary, it makes me happy there is a female variant so I will favor her heavily. When it comes to the fighting games I have played over the years, I have developed something of an affinity for playing female fighters.

The only reason I prefer male Trainer is because it makes me laugh when he says 'dangit!' Literally the only reason I use male over female

I prefer Male Trainer cause I like being my gender when its a self insert character. That and female trainers in game face is soooooo bad. Only down side is the gen 5 color swap is female so I cant rep my favorite gen :c

I thought I was going to prefer the female trainer but... when I saw the “sort of black” male trainer that had a blue charizard (that was the alternate color I always chose for charizard in smash 4) I refuse to play as any other.

I do female because she has my favorite Squirtle color.

Same here. I used purple Charizard in Smash 4, so I use the female trainer as a result and technically prefer her over the male version. But it's because of the fact that purple Charizard is tied to the female trainer. I just want to use Charizard only, and am indifferent to Squirtle, Ivysaur, and the trainer herself.

I never want to hear the Male Trainer's voice ever again, plus Alolan Female Trainer has the blue alts for her Pokemon, so Female Trainer is the obvious winner.

Female with purple Pokemon is what I'm partial to! If I had to pick a male skin it'd be either the original Red, or the dark skinned one.

I mostly chose my skin based on the color of the actual pokemon. I prefer the 4 female colors over the male. Also the male's voice is really annoying for me for some reason. So over all i prefer the Female. The actual trainer's them self both look kinda strange tbh but it's whatever.

Female has better colors tbh; I love the light one where Ivysaur has a white rose :)

I honestly don't know...

Red sounds so F*cking annoying, but I also like the default colours, which leaf can't get...

Female Trainer for the win because she is cute and is somewhat more appealing. Plus I like her dark skin alt or as I like to call it "Hispanic alt". I know the alt isn't referencing Hispanics, but I like to think it is.

It seems that most people prefer Leaf because they think she's hot (it also seems a lot of Fire Emblem characters have the same thing going on). Personally I'm not as crotch-driven so I take the OG champion. He also has the blue alt which is also a huge plus for me. I also like that his body language looks more stable. His new voice may be **** but that's not enough to ruin him for me.

I choose Red simply because I like default palettes more. If I want to choose an alt, then I most likely choose the blue one, which is, once more, associated with Red.

To the people who say it's not important: Yes It Is... I'd play as more characters if they had a girl version.

Also: I'd like to see more different Pokemon Trainer styles, such as the other games girls.
