|---|---|
| Red | The female’s horn develops slowly. Prefers physical attacks such as clawing and biting. |
| Blue | The female’s horn develops slowly. Prefers physical attacks such as clawing and biting. |
| Yellow | When resting deep in its burrow, its thorns always retract. This is proof that it is relaxed. |
| Gold | When feeding its young, it first chews and tenderizes the food, then spits it out for the offspring. |
| Silver | It has a calm and caring nature. Because its horn grows slowly, it prefers not to fight. |
| Crystal | It has a docile nature. If it is threatened with attack, it raises the barbs that are all over its body. |
| Firered | The female has a gentle temperament. It emits ultrasonic cries that have the power to befuddle foes. |
| Leafgreen | The female’s horns develop slowly. Prefers physical attacks such as clawing and biting. |
| Heartgold | When feeding its young, it first chews the food into a paste, then spits it out for the offspring. |
| Soulsilver | It has a calm and caring nature. Because its horn grows slowly, it prefers not to fight. |
| X | The female has a gentle temperament. It emits ultrasonic cries that have the power to befuddle foes. |
| Y | When feeding its young, it first chews the food into a paste, then spits it out for the offspring. |
| Sword | The horn on its head has atrophied. It’s thought that this happens so Nidorina’s children won’t get poked while their mother is feeding them. |
| Shield | If the group is threatened, these Pokémon will band together to assault enemies with a chorus of ultrasonic waves. |
