==Characteristics== Nidoking is a large, powerful creature armed for battle. Its horn, hard enough to pierce a diamond, contains secreted venom, making it a deadly stabbing tool upon prey and Pokémon battle opponents, and its thick tail packs enormously destructive power capable of toppling a metal transmission tower.It can also snap a telephone pole like it were a twig. It uses its tail to smash down its target, then constrict it to break its bones. Nidoking's steel-like hide adds to its powerful tackle, so once it goes on a rampage, there is no stopping this powerful Pokémon. Nidoking is the masculine equivalent to [[Nidoqueen]]. Nidoking is faster and has greater attack, while Nidoqueen has more HP and greater defense. That, along with its drastically different coloring, makes the species therefore eligible for separate classification from Nidoqueen in the Pokedex. There are seventeen different types of Pokémon, and Nidoking is a combination of the Poison and Ground types. As several Pokémon seem to have been designed to resemble other aspects of Japanese pop culture and mythology, it is interesting to note that Nidoking and his brethren bear a striking resemblance to Baragon, a monster that has appeared in the Godzilla movie series.
