Nidoqueen (Japanese: ニドクイン Nidokuin) is a Poison/Ground-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I that is the female counterpart to Nidoking.

Biology

Nidoqueen is a large pokemon, with features resembling a rhino, mouse, and reptile. It is largely blue in color. Nidoqueen has large round ears and two small horns in the center of it's head. Its jaw is cream colored. Nidoqueen has short legs and arms with white claws (two on its feet and three on each paw) and a large bulky tail.

Physiology

Nidoqueen is a large, powerful, bipedal Pokémon. They have thick yellow armor plates all over them. Its horn is smaller than Nidoking's, but it's still strong and produces large quantities of concentrated venom. Nidoqueen can use powerful moves such as Body Slam to paralyze its foes and then finish them off with Mega Punch or Iron Tail.

Natural abilities

Nidoqueen can have either the ability Poison Point where a foe has 30% chance of being poisoned or Rivalry where if the foe is the same gender Nidoqueen's attack will be higher.

Evolution

Appearances

Anime

Dannys Nidoqueen
Main article: Gary's Nidoqueen

Gary's Nidoqueen was seen in A Tent Situation, The Ties That Bind, and Can't Beat the Heat.

Mewtwo stole and cloned Fergus' Nidoqueen. The Clone was seen in Mewtwo Strikes Back and Mewtwo Returns.

Trivia

  • Despite having genders, Nidoqueen, along with its pre-evolution Nidorina, are unable to breed, however their male counterparts Nidorino and Nidoking can breed and so can both genders of Nidoran.
  • No other Pokémon have the same type combination as Nidoking and Nidoqueen.
  • There is an error in Mewtwo Returns where there are "baby" Nidoqueen.
  • Strangely, from Generation II to Generation III, Nidoqueen had teeth.

Etymology

Nidoqueen is a combination of needle and queen. It could also come from cnidocyte, a cell that reacts to venom.

It's Japanese name, Nidokuin, is a corruption of it's English name. It also contains the word doku (poison).

Origin

It is based on various mammals such as hamsters, rabbits, or mice as well as being based on some reptiles, mostly theropod dinosaurs. The "armor" on its chest and lower-body clearly resemble a bikini; this is especally notable in the Pokemon's shiny form, where the plates are a pinkish hue.
