If I breed a male Pokemon with a ditto, can the baby be female?

Question

I am trying to breed a Riolu with Blaze Kick for competitive. I know it is a bad strategy, but I wanted to try it out. However, both my Lucario and Blaziken are male, so I wanted to know if it is possible to breed a female Riolu through a male Lucario and Ditto?

Answer 1

Yes, when you breed two Pokemon, the child's gender is based off the species' gender ratio, not the parents' genders. You will have a 12.5% chance of receiving a female from an egg.

This is true for what generation? In B2 I have bred 5/5 male bagons with Male Salamance and ditto(adamant holding everstone)

Well, you just got a lot of males. That’s it.

Oh thanks. Edit: Just got a female adamant bagon.
