    Doesn't Landorus have a gender? Which only makes the genderless legendary thing even weirder.

    I think it's also weird that you can't breed two Dittos to get a Ditto, while they can breed with just about everything else. What's up with that?

    There is an official explanation for the absence of Berry Pots in B/W: the land in Unova is not suitable for growing berries. I think they just did it to get people to use the Dream World.

    Landorus is male only, just like Tornadus and Thundurus.

    Well, the soil in Kanto and Johto isn't able to grow berries either (at least, not in Gen 4). The Berry Pots are planters with (presumably) imported soil in them. Why Unova doesn't have them, I don't know...

    And I meant the majority of Legendaries (the Birds, Beasts, Lugia & Ho-oh, Mewtwo, Mew, etc.). I know there are a few rare ones that do have a gender (like Cresselia, Heatran, Latios & Latias, I think Meloetta, didn't know Landorus, Tornadus, and Thundrus did). Just seemed odd to me that some rare ones did, most didn't when they probably could. Of course, Mewtwo would likely be male-only, not sure about Arceus. Deoxys and the Regis probably would still be genderless, though.

    And yeah, kinda funny that Ditto + Ditto gets you nothing. The irony...
