I know we discussed this before, but hear me on this one.
Although we have various "refferences" to what gender a plant is, we should notice, that every plant (Except Heroes) has an unknown gender, why, you ask? Because those are species, unless secretely all plants are clones, there isn't a reliable way to notice if the plant is male or female, let's take into examples of a few games.
In Plants vs Zombies Heroes Pea-Nut's desc. mentions it's mother being a Peashooter and it's father being a nut. Peashooter on Plants vs Zombies Heroes does not have gender on it's desc., however on Plants vs Zombies 2 : It's about time it is mentioned as a male (due to the use of "his") although those are 2 different games from the same franchise, isn't the "core" same? Aren't both similar graphically and gameplay-wise? (being the first plant to be obtained, shooting a single pea...) Another example, is Chompzilla. Chompzilla, as saw on her (Remember, Chompzilla is a one-of-a-kind character, just like all Heroes) comic strip, she was a Chomper, Chomper is reffered to as male on both Plants vs Zombies and Plants vs Zombies 2 : It's about time so, clearly, said Chomper that turned into Chompzilla, was indeed, female, due to the simple fact Chomper is a specie of plant, meaning it could be male or female, independent of the Almanac entry or etecetera saying so.
So, what do you say?
Choice #1 |
If you think the gender rule should be replaced with the gender-neutral rule. Does not apply to Heroes, Bosses (GW) and other one-of-a-kind plants |
Choice #2 |
If you think the gender rule should stay as it is. |
Choice #3 |
Your idea, explain it on the vote |
