Pokédex entries

Pokémon Emerald

Its highly toxic barbs are thought to have developed as protection for this small-bodied Pokémon. When enraged, it releases a horrible toxin from its horn.

Pokémon FireRed

Though small, it must be treated with caution because of its powerfully toxic barbs. The female has smaller horns.

Name origin

Nidoran♀'s name may be based on the word needle. Alternatively, it may be based on 二 ni, two, or 二度 nido, two times/two degrees, referring to there being two distinct evolutionary lines with similar names and traits. The ♀ in its name is an indication of its female gender.

Nidoran♀ appears to be based on a rabbit or mouse.
