Nidoran (M)

The male Nidoran, written Nidoran♂ in game, and one of the two Route 22 catches that make Brock winnable: in Yellow it learns Double Kick at level 12. Listed here as "Nidoran (M)" so it gets its own page, separate from the female.

Generation I base stats: HP 46, Attack 57, Defense 40, Special 40, Speed 50. Generation I has a single Special stat, used for both special attack and special defense.

Evolution: Evolves into Nidorino L16

Has Type

Which elemental type or types something has. ONE relationship serves creatures, characters and moves — the old schema had a many2many on one model and a plain many2one on another, which could not be queried together. "Show me everything Fire" is now one query.

Learns at Level

A move that arrives by levelling up, and the level it arrives at.

Learns at Level Level
Horn Attack 8
Double Kick 12
Poison Sting 17
Focus Energy 23
Fury Attack 30
Horn Drill 38

Knows from Start

A move the creature already has when you get it.

Taught by TM

A move a Technical Machine can teach this creature. A separate relationship from levelling up because the method changes what the relationship MEANS, and the guide already renders them as separate sections (design SS4.4).

Found At

Where something is met, and how. Characters are here as well as creatures: the guide records where Professor Oak stands and where each Gym Leader is fought.

Evolves Into

The next stage of an evolution line. NO trigger, level or item attributes: that data does not exist in this guide today and a transform does not invent it.
