There are about 8 million possibilities for the gametes.
The sex of an organism is determined by the combination of sex chromosomes they inherit. In humans, individuals with two X chromosomes are female, while individuals with one X and one Y chromosome are male. Other organisms may have different combinations of sex chromosomes that determine their sex.

Chromosomes that have the same size and shape are called homologous chromosomes. These chromosomes carry the same genes, although they may have different versions of those genes. Homologous chromosomes are typically found in pairs, one inherited from each parent.
An organism with six pairs of chromosomes (12 total) will produce 2^12 (4096) different genetically unique gametes.

For a species with three pair of chromosomes how many gametic combinations are possible?

Since a somatic cell (body cell) has 2n sets of chromosomes, and a gamete has n sets of chromosomes, then in this case: 18 = n, so 2n = 36. This organism has 36 chromosomes in its somatic cells.
Most organisms have a specific number of chromosomes that is characteristic for their species. For example, humans typically have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), while dogs have 78 chromosomes (39 pairs). However, the number of chromosomes can vary among different species.
An organisms gets its chromosomes from its parent(s).
