Are female Pokemon faster than male Pokemon?

Question

My friend said that in Gen I, II,and III, female Pokemon are faster than male Pokemon. So I'm wondering, is it true?

Answer 1

No not unless they have a speed raising nature otherwise the base speed stat is the same as the male.

Gen 1 and 2- wrong. You are right about the base stat part, though.

what do you mean

read my answer

Answer 2

In Gen 1 and 2, there are no such things as natures, so it all depends on the IVs. In Gen 3, Unregognizable, you are correct. It also does depend on the IVs, I have 2 Zigzagoon that I experimented with. One was Jolly with mediocre speed IVs, and was still slower than my Bashful Zigzagoon with perfect speed IVs.
