Nope, no Celebi. In the Japanese version, Celebi was available on a bonus
disc, but the US got Jirachi. And the UK got nothing.

You get infinite chances at catching everything (yes, even the dogs/cats).
Trainers with Shadow Pokémon will always end up somewhere which makes sense.
The "bosses" will go to the Deep Colosseum, the trainers from the Under will
end up in the Snagem hideout, but most others will stay wherever they used
to be.
The Meditite trainer, for instance, will remain in the cave. To fight him
again, you just need to make your way there after defeating Miror B - that
is, battle all the trainers again. This'll be easier second time around,
since your team will be stronger.

Yes, and he'll basically want to do this as soon as you leave the building
post-defeating Miror B, and will keep battling you as many times as you can
reach him.

Meditite can be female, but RS Pokémon don't matter anyway. Espeon and
Umbreon are always male as well.

Very true, but bear in mind that you won't be able to see the GS mon on your
RS Pokédex until you unlock the National Pokédex with FL...and by then,
you'll be able to catch a Ditto in FL and complete your collection that way.

Yeah, the first starter you get should be forced to be female by constant
resets, since it's harder to reach the other two, and therefore less fun to
constantly reset.

That's all

Myself, I reset with most things that mattered, but I'm willing to play the
odds and check out my brother's and friend's games for females, and if THAT
doesn't yield what I want, I have a spare memory card I can use.
Togetic, by the way, was male seven times in a row for me, so I gave up and
caught it male. The odds of this happening should be one in 128.
Independent trials or not, that sounds stupidly unlikely to me. Anyone had
any luck getting a female one?
