well, it's definately a swordtail and not a platy
And from the angle of the pic, it's already pregnant but most likely from a male swordtail and not a guppy
a swordtail can crossbread with a platy, but not a guppy
Hope that helps
Good luck

I have heard of swordtail and platy crosses and molly and guppy crosses , why someone would want to do this is beyond me . each fish has it's own beauty . If were to happen by accident so be it.The pic is a platy/swordtail.

i dont believe it is possible as they are from different classes.
BTW, thats not a swordtail, thats a female platie, you can tell by the thickness and shallowness of the tail.
But while they may try, i dont believe it is possible. ones a Xilpoh, and guppies are percl...

I think people have done that already. It is possible and would produce fry.
