Because male and female Byleth have different names in Japanese, the Japanese website lists out both names. I'm pretty sure that's a first for the series, as Alph is never named on the website. However, in order to avoid an edit war with SuperSmashTurtles, I'm going to ask: is this sort of thing notable?

:I've quickly looked through the characters that have multiple genders ([[Corrin (SSBU)]], [[Robin (SSBU)]], [[Pokémon Trainer (SSBU)]], [[Villager (SSBU)]], [[Wii Fit Trainer (SSBU)]], and [[Inkling (SSBU)]] (and technically [[Bowser Jr. (SSBU)]])) and found that most of them do use gender-neutral pronouns at some point and default pronouns at roughly the same frequency, but they omit pronouns much more often. Byleth seems to be the only one that uses his default pronoun more, however omitting is still much more common. I won't make a call on 'default', 'neutral', or 'none at all', just putting out an observation. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User_talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 10:47, February 20, 2020 (EST) | :I've quickly looked through the characters that have multiple genders ([[Corrin (SSBU)]], [[Robin (SSBU)]], [[Pokémon Trainer (SSBU)]], [[Villager (SSBU)]], [[Wii Fit Trainer (SSBU)]], and [[Inkling (SSBU)]] (and technically [[Bowser Jr. (SSBU)]])) and found that most of them do use gender-neutral pronouns at some point and default pronouns at roughly the same frequency, but they omit pronouns much more often.

::There ''is'' a consensus: "[[SmashWiki:Manual of Style#Writing Style|When discussing these characters in the context of their home series, it is acceptable to refer to them with gender-neutral language. When discussing these characters as Smash Bros. fighters, it is preferred to use the gender of the default costume. In either case, omitting pronouns entirely is a valid style as long as the text does not become unnecessarily clunky.]]" Any articles that don't follow this should be fixed.
