030Nidorina

Nidorina is a first-generation Pokémon and the evolved form of the female Nidoran. Though related to the Nidoran line, the evolved forms of Nidoran cannot breed.

Pokédex Data[]

Nidorina develops a tougher, rougher hide upon evolution. The horn on its head is underdeveloped and so it relies on scratching and biting foes to defend itself. This Pokémon is usually very docile, however, and its poisonous quills will retract when it is in a relaxed state.

Nidorina feed their young by chewing the young's food for them before letting them eat. When a Nidorina's offspring are in danger, she will emit ultrasonic cries to confuse predators.

Abilities[]

  • Fury Swipes - Nidorina attacks with a flurry of painful scratches.
  • Bite - A strong bite that can make the opponent flinch.
  • Toxic Spikes - Nidorina sheds its barbs over the ground which will poison anyone who carelessly treads on them.
  • Captivate - Nidorina charms its opponent into lowering their guard, reducing their Special Attack stat.

Evolution[]

Nidorina can evolve into Nidoqueen through the use of a Moon Stone.
