Really? The only gendered reference I can find on the site is from 2012 and self-describes as a dude.

On Twitter it says "she/etc" (but perhaps it really doesn't matter): https://twitter.com/eevee

I'm sure it doesn't matter, I just had a mental-model that eevee was a he, and hadn't seen anything to counter that!

Dude (or 'bloke' in UK English). However, it's clear that in Eevee's mind gender is irrelevant.

I totally agree with this. Gender isn't a black and white painting, it's a rainbowed coloured explosion on a digital canvas and we're all individual pixels within it.
