Nidoran is a small Pokémon that is dangerous due to the venemous barbs on its body. The female version has smaller horns than the male, and they are usually mild-mannered. They avoid combat unless they are threatened to the point that they will torment their foes with their poison spikes. Its poison is actual quite dangerous and even slight contact could have fatal results.
 
 
 
Nidoran evolves into [[Nidorina]] at Level 16, and the final level of its evolutionary chain is [[Nidoqueen]]. Interestingly, it is the only Pokémon in its evolutionary line capable of breeding, as neither Nidorina nor Nidoqueen have been known to leave eggs.

*Nidoran have made occasional appearances throughout the Pokémon anime, and one episode featured a pair of Nidoran of the opposite gender who were in love. Their trainers forbade it due to being feuding enemies, but they saw their errors by the end of the episode and permitted their romance, at which point both Nidoran evolved.
 
*In the Pokémon Adventures, a female Nidoran was shown as one of Green's Pokémon near the end of the ''Red''/''Blue'' arc. It later evolved by the time of the ''FireRed''/''LeafGreen'' arc.
 
 
 
=Trivia=
 
 
 
*Part of its name may be derived from "needle" or "ni", the Japanese word for two which would represent the two very different versions of Nidoran. "Ran" may also come from the Japanese name for an orchid that could be either blue or purple, just like Nidoran itself.
