Cross-dressing is a recurring element in Pokémon media.

In the core series games

Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver

In Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, when the player interacts with Copycat, she quickly copies their appearance. Therefore, if the player selected Ethan in the current game, Copycat appears crossdressing as Ethan.

Pokémon Black 2 and White 2

In the Japanese and French versions of Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, Nursery Aide June admits to being a man disguised as a woman in order to be a Nursery Aide, but this dialogue is cut from the English translations.
