Nidoqueen (Japanese: ニドクイン Nidoqueen) is a dual-type Poison/Ground Pokémon.

She evolves from Nidorina when exposed to a Moon Stone. She is the final form of Nidoran♀.

Biology

Physiology

Nidoqueen is a large, tailed bipedal, blue Pokémon with both mammalian and reptilian features. She has a thick tail and mouse-like ears. Nidoqueen has spikes running down the length of her back and has a horn on her forehead. Her lower-jaw, chest-plates and lower torso are cream-colored.

Gender differences

Nidoqueen is the female of the species. For the male equivalent, see Nidoking.

Special abilities

Nidoqueen have long spikes that ooze poison on contact with foes. Nidoqueen can also cause small tremors by slamming the ground. Nidoqueen possesses some elemental versatility, being able to learn moves from several different types such as those that are Ice, Electric, and Fighting.

As with most fully evolved Pokémon, Nidoqueen can also use Hyper Beam and Giga Impact.

Behavior

Nidoqueen can be quite fierce and is very protective over her young. She will try to seal the entrance to her burrow to protect her young. Her hard, needle-like scales, which appear to grow in cycles, stand up when excited or provoked.

Habitat

Grassland

Grassland Pokémon

Nidoqueen live in expansive hot savannas and plains. She is normally found in the same places that Nidoran♀ and Nidorina is found.
