Yes, but it also states:

(Confirmed in dub only)

The dub merely translates the episodes into English, which means we cannot accept what it says as entirely factual. It has not been clarified in the original, so the issue is still unconfirmed.

Even in that case it doesn't verify anything, since Buneary has never explicitly been referred to as female. Despite how feminine its demeanour may be, we cannot just assume it is in fact female due to this reason alone. :P

cant we just agree that pikachu still has an uncomfirmed gender. but there is high probability that it is male?

What?

There was no intention of me causing any conflict from that. I wasn't slating you, I was only informing you that what you stated wasn’t entirely accurate. I’m entitled to input my own opinion into a conversation, because y'know, that is generally the purpose of a forum.
