It uses its hard incisor teeth to crush and eat berries. The tip of a female Nidoran’s horn is a bit more rounded than the tip of a male’s horn.
Females are more sensitive to smells than males. While foraging, they’ll use their whiskers to check wind direction and stay downwind of predators.
A mild-mannered Pokémon that does not like to fight. Beware—its small horn secretes venom.
Nidoran♀ has barbs that secrete a powerful poison. They are thought to have developed as protection for this small-bodied Pokémon. When enraged, it releases a horrible toxin from its horn.
While it does not prefer to fight, even one drop of the poison it secretes from barbs can be fatal.
Though small, it must be treated with caution because of its powerfully toxic barbs. The female has smaller horns.
