Nidorino (Japanese: ニドリーノ Nidorino) is a Poison-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves from Nidoran♂ starting at level 16 and evolves into Nidoking when exposed to a Moon Stone.

It is related to Nidoran♀ and, starting in Generation V, can produce Eggs that contain either Nidoran♂ or Nidoran♀ when bred with Ditto.

Biology

Nidorino is a light-purple, quadrupedal Pokémon. It has several darker purple patches across its body. It has large, spiny ears with teal insides, narrow black eyes, and a long snout with two pointed teeth protruding from the upper jaw. Nidorino has a ridge of toxic spines on its back and a long, pointed horn on its forehead. The horn is harder than a diamond and capable of secreting poison on impact. Its short legs have three claws on each foot. Nidorino is a male-only species.

Nidorino is independent, nervous, and fierce; and it is often described as violent and easily angered. It uses its ears to check its surroundings. If it senses a hostile presence, all the barbs on its back bristle up at once, and it challenges the foe with all its might. Nidorino's horn is as hard as diamond, allowing it to easily destroy boulders. It uses that horn to look for Moon Stones. The level of adrenaline Nirdorino has can determine how strong its poison will be. Nidorino live in hot savannas and plains.

Trivia

  • Nidorino is one of the first two Pokémon to appear in a Pokémon battle both in the anime and in the games, the other being Gengar. This is due to their appearance in the opening animation of Pokémon Red and Green, on which the beginning of the first anime episode was based on, as well as the remakes.
    • It is also the first Pokémon to be both seen and captured in Pokémon Adventures, in much the same way.
  • Nidorino, along with Gengar (and, possibly, other Pokémon), originate from the old manga, Capsule Monsters, which is considered the ancestor to the Pokémon franchise.
  • The Nidorino that appears in Professor Oak's introduction in Pokémon Red and Blue has the cry of a Nidorina.
  • Nidorino's Shiny coloration is the same as Nidorina's normal coloration. Likewise, Nidorina's Shiny coloration matches Nidorino's normal coloration.
  • Nidorino shares its category with Nidoran♂, Nidoran♀, Nidorina, Poipole, and Naganadel. They are all known as the Poison Pin Pokémon.

Origin

Nidorino appears to be based on a rhinoceros, porcupine, rabbit, mouse, or even a hamster, as seen by their aggressive and independent nature.

Name origin

Nidorino may be a combination of needle and rhinoceros. Nido may also be based on cnidocyte, a type of venomous cell responsible for the stings delivered by stinging animals, most notably by jellyfish. Alternatively, it may be based on 二 ni (two) or 二度 nido (two times/two degrees), referring to the two distinct evolutionary lines using the name with similar names and traits. Rino likely alludes to its male gender; in some languages, such as Spanish, names and words ending in o are an indication to the male gender.

In other languages
