17	* In ''WesternAnimation/ThreeTwoOnePenguins'', out of the six main characters, Michelle is the only female character.
18	* ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfSamAndMaxFreelancePolice'' [[CanonForeigner introduced Darla "The Geek" Gugenheek as a major supporting character]], becoming the closest thing [[Franchise/SamAndMax the titular duo]] had to a tritagonist. Originally, the producers of the show were planning on making Geek a fairly standard, stereotypical male nerd, [[ExecutiveMeddling but executives pushed for a recurring female character]] (even going so far as to at one point [[GenderFlip asking for Max to be female]]), with her by-committee design probably being a reason why she has yet to appear in any of the comics or games.
19	* ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfTheGalaxyRangers'' had a team of four elite agents of the Bureau of Extra-Terrestrial Affairs. Out of the eight recurring characters from BETA, only Niko is female; the rest of the organization is male, a male-identifying android, or dolphins.
20	* ''WesternAnimation/AttackOfTheKillerTomatoes'' Tara is the only female tomato in the show (of course, she looks as a normal beautiful woman if not in contact with salt). All other tomatoes (both humanoid and traditional-looking) are male. She's also the only female in the main cast, but among the recurring characters the other 2 are The Censor Lady (who exists only to censor story elements) and the only female of the Tomato Task Force which is Mary Jo Nagamininashy.
21	* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'':
22	** The first season had only one female character from episode to episode; Katara, while the other heroes, villains, and vast majority of recurring minor characters were male. The second season added more female characters, including another girl joining the core group, making [[GenderEqualEnsemble an even ratio of two males to two females,]] not counting the (male) {{team pet}}s, Momo and Appa. Early production notes for the series indicate that everyone besides Katara was male in the original draft. Remember that large male earthbender in the opening who never appeared in the show? That was supposed to be Toph.
23	** During the introduction episode of [[CuteBruiser Toph Beifong,]] Earth Rumble VI was a [[{{Homage}} sendup]] of ProfessionalWrestling, so all of the contestants and audience were males; when they introduce "The Blind Bandit", she was the only female competitor.
24	* ''WesternAnimation/AvengersAssemble'' has the ''ComicBook/BlackWidow'' main character as the only female hero on a team with eight members, the others being Ant-Man, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Hawkeye, Falcon and Captain America. Season 4 adds 3 new female characters (Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, and The Wasp) on a team of ''thirteen'' members.
25	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheAvengersEarthsMightiestHeroes'' Wasp was the sole female Avenger in season 1. Averted by season 2 adding the titular character from ''ComicBook/MsMarvel'' to the cast. Other females appear in less prominent roles throughout the series, keeping the trope limited to the 8-person team in season 1.
26	* ''WesternAnimation/TheBatman'':
27	** Seasons 1 and 2 had only one female cop; Detective Ellen Yin, from an entire city's worth of police detectives.
28	** Season 3 introduces Batgirl/Barbara Gordon; the only female crimefighter until the end of the series.
29	* ''WesternAnimation/TheBotsMaster'': Swang is the only (confirmed) female [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin boyzz]] out of twenty.
30	* ''WesternAnimation/BooBoomTheLongWayHome'': Aurelia the cat is the only female member of the 5 animals that accompany Boo Boom, and for a large part of the series also the only female in the entire main group. That last one gets averted during the episodes in which SixthRanger Viola is present.
31	* ''Capertown Cops'': Coco Loco is the only female of the Capertown cops, and is just as much a bungler as the others.
32	* Shao Lin is the only female monkey on the FiveManBand of ''WesternAnimation/CaptainSimianAndTheSpaceMonkeys'', with the exception of [[MeaningfulName Lilith]], who was in fact [[spoiler:an android]] so she doesn't count.
33	* ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'': Chip and Dale are brothers/friends (it's not entirely clear which one), who pick up Monterey Jack and his pal Zipper. Rounding out the crew is the only female, Gadget (who was actually the daughter of the guy they wanted to recruit). Downplayed in that being female is not her dominant characteristic; instead, she is TheSmartGuy of the show's FiveManBand.
34	* The ''WesternAnimation/DefendersOfTheEarth'' consist of seven males and one female, the latter being the Phantom's daughter, Jedda. Happily, there are a few more female characters in the supporting cast (including [[TeamPet Jedda's panther]]).
35	* On ''WesternAnimation/DragonBooster'', the main cast is made up of three males (Artha, Parm, and Lance), and one female (Kitt). Though initially a rival to Artha, Kitt became a cheerleader for him and consistently beaten in any kind of race (despite the fact that she had more experience at racing than Artha, who ''didn't want to race at all'' at the start of the series). There were other female supporting characters, including a few crew leaders, all of whom were present to support the males. The "Kitt can never win" issue might have some connection to the advertising assumption that you can't show a girl winning a board game, or it'll be less appealing to boys.
36	* Parodied in the ''Terrible Thunder Lizards'' subseries of ''WesternAnimation/EekTheCat''; the only female human, Babs, is a genetically engineered creature created by dinosaur scientists to destroy the only two humans (both male) known to exist. Whilst she abandons that plan, she instead plans on conquering the world for ''womankind'' instead, and is portrayed as a domineering, arrogant, and manipulative JerkAss.
37	* ''WesternAnimation/EndangeredSpecies2015'' stars a male chipmunk (Merl), a male seagull (Gull), and a female rabbit (Pickle).
38	* ''WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget'' is a downplayed example. Penny is the only female of the five main characters, but being female is not her sole character trait, being closer to TheSmartGuy than TheHeart.
39	* ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuyPresentsLaughItUpFuzzball'' spoofed how few major original trilogy ''Franchise/StarWars'' characters were women:
40	** When Chris/Luke discovers he has a sister, Herbert/Obi-Wan explicitly calls her the only woman in the galaxy.
41	--->'''Chris/Luke:''' A sister! Who is it?
42	---> '''Herbert/Obi-Wan:''' Who do you think it is? Who's the only goddamn woman in the galaxy?
43	** Because Meg is also female (but they didn't have any for her to play), she's assigned the role of [[ButtMonkey some minor genderless alien creature]] in each film.
44	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futz}}'': There is only one female among the cast.
45	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'' begins with [[ActionGirl Elisa Maza]] (a human) as the only main female character, balancing the five (male) gargoyles and their [[AllAnimalsAreDogs gargoyle beast]]. As the show developed, more female characters show up, including Angela (Goliath's daughter) joining the Manhattan Clan.
46	* In ''WesternAnimation/GodRocks'', Gem is the only female of the God Rocks band.
47	* One episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy'' featured [[CaptainErsatz Ersatzes]] of the [[TropeNamer Trope-Namers]], and actually parodied the trope in a rather brilliant way, by having the "Schlubs" follow the sort of social and mating behavior that is the origin of this trope whenever it occurs in real-life animals; which is to say, the Schlubs follow BizarreSexualDimorphism via TinyGuyHugeGirl, the one female in a given settlement being easily ten times the height of the menfolk, an who will fight any other female who turns up in her settlement to the death, which implies that she's mated to the men.
48	* Examples from Creator/HannaBarbera:
49	** ''WesternAnimation/TheCattanoogaCats'': Kitty Jo is the only female member in the band. ''Around the World in 79 Days'' has Jenny Trent as the only girl in the segment.
50	** April is the only girl in ''WesternAnimation/TheFunkyPhantom'', stuck with her two friends Skip and Augie (always feuding), their pets Elmo and Boo (always feuding), and the Revolutionary War ghost Jonathan Muddlemore (Mudsy for short).
51	** The animated series of ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleRascals'' consisted of four boys and Darla Hood, although this is probably a legacy from the original shorts, where the boys were firmly in their "GirlsHaveCooties" stage.
52	** ''WesternAnimation/JonnyQuest'':
53	*** In the original series, Jezebel Jade was the only female character to appear in at least two episodes. Several episodes had all-male casts.
54	*** [[WesternAnimation/TheNewAdventuresOfJonnyQuest The 1980s version]] introduced Jessie Bradshaw to the all-male cast of the original series. She was meant to be a recurring character, but only appeared in the last episode before the series' cancellation. She would return in the two follow-up [[WesternAnimation/JonnysGoldenQuest made-for-TV]] [[WesternAnimation/JonnyQuestVersusTheCyberInsects animated movies]], which {{retcon}}ned/[[TheReveal revealed her]] to be Race Bannon's daughter. In [[WesternAnimation/JonnyQuestTheRealAdventures the 1990s update]], she was made a main character.
55	** Penelope Pitstop was the only woman in ''WesternAnimation/ThePerilsOfPenelopePitstop'' (her own series!) Her friends in the Ant Hill Mob, a group of seven little men, would rescue her from the Hooded Claw's traps (and she'd then rescue them). She was also the only woman in the previous season's ''WesternAnimation/WackyRaces'' (a series that featured 11 different racing teams, averaging two racers to a car).
56	** For the first season of ''WesternAnimation/ShirtTales'', Pammy Panda was the only female in the group. When the show began its second season, a female kangaroo was added to the cast.
57	** In the MerchandiseDriven series ''WesternAnimation/SkyCommanders'', each faction had one female member (Red [=McCullogh=] from the heroic Sky Commanders, Dr. Erica Slade from the evil Raiders). Both of them were {{Toyless Toyline Character}}s.
58	** All of H-B's FunnyAnimal characters were male until WesternAnimation/YogiBear's girlfriend Cindy was introduced.
59	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Hero 108}}'''s Mystique Sonia is the only female of First Squad, the other 4 members (including a rabbit) being male.
60	* On ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'', Heloise is the ''only'' female in Season 1's final group shot at 5:1. Recurring characters like Saffi and Jez ease this a bit, but they tend not to have much of a role.
61	* The male cast of ''WesternAnimation/KaBlam!'' (that was included in over three episodes) consisted of Henry, Mr. Foot, and Mr. Stockdale (starting Season 4). "Over three appearances" girls? June.
62	* ''{{WesternAnimation/Kaeloo}}'''s first season has only the title female character, with three male characters. In the second season, however, new characters Pretty, Eugly, Olaf and Olga [[note]] Olga, despite being a CompanionCube, is counted as a character [[/note]] are introduced, creating a GenderEqualEnsemble with four males and four females.
63	* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'' has Team Go, the superhero family that Shego is from. Her brothers are "Hego", "Mego", and "[[AlwaysIdenticalTwins Wego]]".
64	* In the obscure series ''WesternAnimation/KleoTheMisfitUnicorn'', the titular character is the only female inhabitant of the main characters.
65	* ''WesternAnimation/LegionOfSuperHeroes2006'' started the show with female Legionnaires Saturn Girl, Phantom Girl, and Triplicate Girl. And then, in Season 2, [[ExecutiveMeddling the powers that be]] decided that male viewership would be put off by so many girls, so the girls were incapacitated and/or inexplicably sidelined for many episodes. The Legion has a massive cast with a fairly even gender --and species-- balance, so the comics were averting this trope even all the way back to UsefulNotes/{{the Silver Age\|OfComicBooks}}! The addition of Shrinking Violet in the same season was a [[{{Pun}} very small]] counterbalance.
66	* Fuli from ''WesternAnimation/TheLionGuard'' is the only female of the titular group. Kion, Beshte, Ono, and Bunga round out the rest. There are a few additional females who are not part of the Guard, so Fuli isn't completely alone.
67	* Lola Bunny, introduced in ''Film/SpaceJam'', was [[TheScrappy derided for being a female addition]] to an all-male basketball team. While other female characters occur in the ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' franchise (including Granny, who is also in ''Space Jam''), Lola's place felt forced into the work, not having established relations with the rest of the cast. ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow'' [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap has improved this,]] and added several other females to the cast.
68	* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'' has Stella Zhau as the only female member of Lincoln Loud's friend group, while the other boys are five.
69	* ''WesternAnimation/MartinTheWarrior'': This cartoon adaptation of the ''Literature/{{Redwall}}'' story [[AvertedTrope avoided the 1 female member]] problem by changing Pallum the Hedgehog into a girl, leading to TwoGirlsToATeam.
70	* ''{{WesternAnimation/MASK}}'' has Gloria Baker as the only female member of MASK and Vanessa Warfield as the only female member of the villainous VENOM organisation. Gloria was initially one of eight with another seven added later, Vanessa was initially one of four with another four added. (Both were created for the series: Vanessa got a toy around the time of the second season, Gloria didn't get one until after the series ended and that had her with a different vehicle and mask to the series.)
71	* ''Franchise/MastersOfTheUniverse''
72	** ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse1983'': Among the "masters", only Teela is female. In the original comics that came with [[Toys/MastersOfTheUniverse the toys]], Teela was also the Sorceress of Greyskull. The cartoon chose to make them two different characters instead.
73	** ''WesternAnimation/SheRaPrincessOfPower'' was basically the same show [[DistaffCounterpart with the gender ratio reversed]] to appeal to female viewers.
74	* ''WesternAnimation/MiddlemostPost'': Russell is the only girl in the main cast.
75	* ''{{WesternAnimation/Motorcity}}'': Protagonist organization the "Burners" consist of Mike, Chuck, Dutch, Texas, Jason and Julie (the only female), plus R.O.T.H. ([[TeamPet "male" robot]]). She's at least accompanied by Tennie, Foxy and Kaia in context of the wider cast.
76	* ''WesternAnimation/ObanStarRacers'': The main character is Eva/Molly, a female mechanic for the human team. Don Wei, the owner of her racing team, believes that [[StayInTheKitchen women shouldn't be racers]]. However, [[PosthumousCharacter Maya Wei]] shows up frequently to affect the story by providing motivations for both of them.
77	* ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'':
78	** In the short "The Feelers", Mitzi Moth is the only female member of the titular rock band of anthropomorphic insects.
79	** Shero is the only female among the titular superhero team of the short "Youngstar 3".
80	* ''VideoGame/PacMan'':
81	** Usually Pinky is the only female Ghost Gang member, but because she was {{Gender Flip}}ped in [[WesternAnimation/PacMan the 1982 cartoon]], Sue becomes the only female ghost in the gang.
82	** ''WesternAnimation/PacManAndTheGhostlyAdventures'' also plays this trope straight. Pinky is the only female member of the Ghost Gang.
83	* ''WesternAnimation/PAWPatrol'' started with only one female team member, Skye. Everest was added as an occasional SixthRanger in the second season. Liberty was introduced as an additional female member (at first honorary, and in the end full-time) in the 2021 movie.
84	* In ''WesternAnimation/RamboTheForceOfFreedom'', Kat is the only major female character in the series, which consists of at least five other characters.
85	* For the entire first season of ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'', there was only one female in the cast: Margaret the cardinal, who wasn't even part of the eight main characters. She only appeared in three episodes, one of which was only via dream sequence. However, Season 2 has introduced another female character: Eileen the mole, though both are supporting cast members.
86	* Janine in ''WesternAnimation/TheRealGhostbusters'' is the female secretary to the four-man team of ghost busters (although she occasionally help out when the chips are really down).
87	* The title team of ''WesternAnimation/RoadRovers'' consists of five male members (Hunter, Blitz, Exile, Shagg, and Muzzle), and one female (Colleen).
88	* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Robotix}}'', Narra is the only female Protecton as well as the only female character in general. While Compucore speaks in a feminine voice, they are technically genderless, considering they are a computer.
89	* ''WesternAnimation/RockDog'' has eight main characters, only one of which (Dharma, the fox bassist) is female. There are, however, more minor female characters.
90	* ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'' began with a cast of five recurring characters (including Rocko the main character), the only female of which was the wife of the CrankyNeighbor; Bev Bighead. Averted when the creators added AffirmativeActionGirl hook-for-a-hand-pirate-style Dr. Hutchinson as a love interest for Filburt. They wanted a female with a hook, you see.
91	* [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] on a "fan club" segment on ''WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle'', where the club holds a picnic with a "prettiest girl" contest. Despite having a cast of five (Rocky, Bullwinkle, Fearless Leader, Boris, and Natasha), Natasha wins by default because she's the only female member.
92	* On ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretWorldOfSantaClaus'', Thoren is the only female elf, and the only recurring female character.
93	* Of course ''WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs1981'' originally had only Smurfette, in a cast of dozens of male smurfs. The [[TropeNamers trope namer]] would {{avert\|edTrope}} this with the additions of Sassette and Nanny Smurf.
94	** Smurfette wasn't originally part of the series. She was a black-haired creation of Gargamel and meant to be used to cause discord among the Smurfs. She became a blonde when she became a 'real Smurf' thanks to Papa Smurf's white magic.
95	** The [[WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs2021 2021 animated series]] seeks to avert this trope by introducing the Smurfettes from ''WesternAnimation/SmurfsTheLostVillage'' into the main cast.
96	* ''WesternAnimation/SolarOpposites'': Jessie is the only female member of the Shlorpian family.
97	* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'': Played with in the "You Got F'ed in the A" episode of ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'', when Stan is putting together his dance team.
98	---> "We can't be a dance troupe with just guys. [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday People will think we're fags.]]"
99	** Henrietta from the Goth Kids.
100	* In ''WesternAnimation/StillWaterAppleTVPlus'' , Addy is the only girl among the show's 4 main characters.
101	* ''WesternAnimation/StormHawks'' has one girl (of the CloserToEarth variety) on the FiveManBand. However, it averts the trope with a female recurring character who has been invited to join the team several times (she's something of a SixthRanger).
102	* ''WesternAnimation/StreetSharks'' had a cast of four teenage boys transformed into sharks, and their five friends (some of whom were also transformed into fish-people). But the only female in the group was Lena, a friend of theirs from college.
103	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Superfriends}}'':
104	** In most episodes, Wonder Woman was the only female hero, particularly egregious during the ''Challenge of the Super Friends'' season, when the ranks of the Super Friends swelled to 11 and she was ''still'' the only female. Even the Legion of Doom had [[TwoGirlsToATeam two female members]] -- and they would only use as many villains as there were heroes.
105	** ''Superfriends'' did have some [[AvertedTrope aversions]] by adding Wendy, or Jayna of the Wonder Twins, Hawkgirl, or Rima the Jungle Girl, but they only appeared in a handful of episodes, and never more than TwoGirlsToATeam.
106	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}}'': Alice is the main female protagonist, in a group of four, but also the only woman in ''Superjail'' other than the lunch ladies, who are much more minor characters. Her SpearCounterpart Bruce also appears to be the only man in Ultraprison. Of course, as both are stated to be UsefulNotes/{{Transgender}}, their status tends to be debated among fans, and the show plays with gender roles in relation to Alice.
107	* ''WesternAnimation/SuperRobotMonkeyTeamHyperforceGo'' began with Nova as the sole female, as the show was a partial {{Homage}} to super robot anime's FiveManBand style. Later on, [[TwoGirlsToATeam Jinmay would be added]], averting the Principle.
108	* ''WesternAnimation/SushiPack'': Mochi Macchiato is the only female member of the Legion of Low Tide with the rest of the members being males.
109	* ''Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles'':
110	** ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987'' has the character of April O'Neil, female friend to the four turtles (plus Splinter!) who helps them interact with the human world.
111	** ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003'' gives April a much more [[ActionGirl action-oriented role]] (as well as that of CoolBigSis to the Turtles) as the series progressed, with her wisely taking lessons from Splinter (but still the only female character until [[TwoGirlsToATeam the introduction of Karai]]).
112	** ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012'' integrated April by making her about the turtles' age in addition to Splinter giving her kunoichi training.
113	** ''WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheTeenageMutantNinjaTurtles'' keeps the aforementioned AgeLift, and makes April and the turtles [[AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul friends from the start]]. On the villains' side, there's [[DarkActionGirl the Foot Recruit]], who is later revealed to be [[spoiler:a [[GenderFlip gender-flipped]] [[CanonCharacterAllAlong Casey Jones]].]]
114	** ''WesternAnimation/{{TMNT}}'' would [[AvertedTrope avert this trope]] by having April joined by Karai.
115	* ''WesternAnimation/ThunderCats1985'' began with a core cast of Lion-O, Panthro, Tigra, Snarf and Cheetara, with occasional appearances by Jaga. Only Cheetara is female, but from the first episode fraternal twins Wilykat and Wilykit are established as the resident [[TagalongKid Tagalong Kids]], making the initial set-up more akin to TwoGirlsToATeam. The series would later add Pumyra in addition to a number of female supporting characters.
116	* ''WesternAnimation/ThunderCats2011'' has modern versions of the original group, and then added Pumyra... [[http://thundercats.wikia.com/wiki/What_Lies_Above,_Part_2 who left at the end of season two]], returning the trope to action.
117	* ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'':
118	** ''World Tour'' has Team Chris is Really, Really, Really, Really Hot, which consists of four (later five) guys, and Izzy (who had switched teams with Sierra, the one who came up with the team's name, so they could be with their love interests). The season also includes a team following TheOneGuy and a GenderEqualEnsemble.
119	** In ''Revenge of the Island'', Dawn becomes the sole female member of the Toxic Rats for a while. After she gets eliminated the team becomes all-male until Chris has Scott swap teams with Jo.
120	* ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'': For a long time, the male to female ratio was obscenely distorted, no matter where you looked. The excuse was that they're robots and have no gender, which doesn't hold up well when the male robots use gender pronouns for themselves.
121	** In ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformersTheMovie'', outside of a few background characters, the only female character, human or robot, is Arcee. (Additionally, the movie was made primarily to introduce a new batch of toys, but despite releasing toys for the other main characters, an Arcee figure was not released!)
122	** ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'': Starscream's female clone (named Slipstream, according to WordOfGod) is the only female in a flock of five.
123	** The [[AllThereInTheManual Allspark Almanacs]] have added a few more girls, but they also include the Omega Sentinel roster - out of twelve "Greek-letter-Supremes", only one confirmed female.
124	** The ''Franchise/TransformersAlignedUniverse'' mentions that all female Cybertronians are descended from Solus Prime, the only female among the original Thirteen Primes.
125	** While the original dozen of ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'' characters (Maximals and Predacons) were entirely male, female characters Blackarachnia and Airazor were introduced in the first season (to different sides). However with Airazor [[spoiler:getting beamed into space by some freaky alien plants midway through the second season]], Blackarachnia remains the only female in half of the second and the entire third season. Interestingly enough, Airazor does return as Tigerhawk, a fusion of both hers and Tigatron's bodies, but the character is presented as male. By the way, [[ShesAManInJapan Airazor was made male in the Japanese dub of the show]] for unknown reason.
126	** The Transformers that appear in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersRescueBots'' are mainly male, with the first female Autobot Quickshadow being introduced in the fourth season.
127	** Downplayed in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersRescueBotsAcademy'', where Whirl is the sole female among the Rescue Bots Recruits, but three other female Transformers are featured as minor characters (Glow, Brushfire and Dinobot Slash).
128	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Visionaries}}'' has two teams of seven characters, each of which has only one female:
129	** Galadria of the seven heroic Spectral Knights.
130	** Virulina of the evil seven Darkling Lords.
131	* In ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender'' there's five paladins, [[spoiler: and Pidge is the only female]].
132	* ''Franchise/WinnieThePooh'' has a main cast of ten, of which only Kanga is female. [[EnforcedTrope This makes perfect sense, given the fact that it's based on a little boy's stuffed animal collection, and Kanga is present to be the mother of baby Roo.]] However, ''Playdate with Winnie the Pooh'' has both Kanga and Rabbit; the latter of whom [[GenderFlip was changed to female]], making them [[TwoGirlsToATeam both girls to the otherwise male cast.]]
133	* ''WesternAnimation/XavierRiddleAndTheSecretMuseum'': Yadina is the only girl in the main cast ([[CompanionCube Dr. Zoom]] and [[RobotBuddy Berby]] don't count because they aren't human/alive).
134	* ''WesternAnimation/XiaolinShowdown'' and its sequel ''WesternAnimation/XiaolinChronicles'': Kimiko is the only female Dragon of the four monks.
135	* ''WesternAnimation/XMenEvolution'': Throughout the series, there is only one Brotherhood chick on the all male team at one time or another (the males were Avalanche, Toad, Blob, and Quicksilver). The first several episodes has Rogue before she joins the X-Men. Boom Boom joins them for most of the second season before she leaves. Then finally the Scarlet Witch joins and becomes the permanent Brotherhood babe.
136	* ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice2010'':
137	** The first several episodes have Robin, Kid Flash, Superboy, Aqualad, and Miss Martian (the only female) as the Young Justice team. Averted when [[TwoGirlsToATeam Artemis joins up]].
138	** The robots built by T.O. Morrow have a bit of a theme to them; Red Torpedo, Red Tornado, and Red Volcano, are all androids, while Red Inferno is a gynoid (robot who resembles a female human; the Greek prefix "andr-" refers to the masculine gender).
139	** The Injustice League (Black Adam, The Joker, Poison Ivy, The Ultra-Humanite, Count Werner Vertigo, Wotan, and Atomic Skull) were a seven-villain team that had Poison Ivy as their lone female member.
140	** The Forever People (Vykin, Dreamer, Bear, Serifan, Moonrider) can summon Infinity-Man, but only Dreamer is female.
141	** The Light, a group of seven villains, has only one female member; [[spoiler:Queen Bee]].
142	* ''WesternAnimation/ZakStorm'': The 7C's consists out of seven members. Of those seven, the first mate Cece is the only female member.
