33- Nidorino

Japanese: ニドリーノ Nidorino

Nidorino is Pokémon from Nidoran♂ Pokémon Line and was first introduced in Generation I. It is a poison-type Pokémon.Nidoran♂ evolves into Nidorino at level 16. Nidorino is then further evolved into another form called Nidoking when exposed to a special stone called Moon Stone.

Nidorino breeds with Ditto during Generation V to produce eggs. Therefore, their eggs may contain Nidoran♂ or Nidoran♀.

It is a male Pokémon found mostly in hot plains and savannas.

Characteristics

Nidorino is relatively large as compared to its predecessor Nidoran♂. It weighs around 19.5kgs or 43 pounds and is almost a meter tall. It is light purple, with darker marks all over its body. It is a four-legged Pokémon, with three fingers on each foot.

Its features include large ears with spines, black eyes, and a snout with two big pointed teeth. It has really hard horns on its foreheads, which it uses for attacking the enemy with venom. These horns can even destroy a diamond.

It uses its horns to destroy boulders when they are looking for moonstones. It also has toxic spines all over its back. The poison content in Nidorino’s body depends on its adrenaline. If its adrenaline content is high, it brings more poison.

Nidorino is an independent Pokémon of the Nidoran♂ line. It is fierce, nervous, and generally described as an angry and violent Pokémon. Its large ears help them in checking its surroundings.

When Nidorino senses a presence around itself, it uses its ears to check for noise. If it detects a danger around it, the spikes on its body straighten up in anger. Nidoran then challenges the enemy for a duel.
