Not open for further replies.
Here, I will list all pokedex entries with my own thoughts on why Pokemon are the way that they are. The only evidence I will use will come from the games, and battle data won't be used. also, i am still working on this

Bulbasaur
A strange seed was planted on its back at birth. The plant sprouts and grows with this Pokémon. It can go for days without eating a single morsel. In the bulb on its back, it stores energy. The bulb-like pouch on its back grows larger as it ages. The pouch is filled with numerous seeds. The seed on its back is filled with nutrients. The seed grows steadily larger as its body grows. It carries a seed on its back right from birth. As it grows older, the seed also grows larger. While it is young, it uses the nutrients that are stored in the seeds on its back in order to grow. Bulbasaur can be seen napping in bright sunlight. There is a seed on its back. By soaking up the sun's rays, the seed grows progressively larger. There is a plant seed on its back right from the day this Pokémon is born. The seed slowly grows larger. For some time after its birth, it grows by gaining nourishment from the seed on its back.

Generally lives in places in abundance of plant life. This could be for a number of reasons. For example, its diet may consist of plant life and/or things that live around plant life (this could be how it creates its poisons), it may create the forests it inhabits, it may originate from a mutation in plant life, its bulb may be found in nature, and thus it can only live in places where it is found, it could harness plant life for its attacks, it may be drawn to places with rich soil or it might have a symbiotic relationship with plant life. It gets energy from sunlight, however it is implied that it isn't its only source of energy. The dex states that it stores seeds in its bulb which may mean it eats seeds, however it might mean it stores seeds there and plants them. It is always found near caterpillar pokemon, so it may be an insectivore.

Ivysaur
When the bulb on its back grows large, it appears to lose the ability to stand on its hind legs. The bulb on its back grows by drawing energy. It gives off an aroma when it is ready to bloom. The bud on its back apparently draws energy from its body. The bud is said to open into a large flower when fully grown. Exposure to sunlight adds to its strength. Sunlight also makes the bud on its back grow larger. If the bud on its back starts to smell sweet, it is evidence that the large flower will soon bloom. The bulb on its back grows as it absorbs nutrients. The bulb gives off a pleasant aroma when it blooms. There is a bud on this Pokémon's back. To support its weight, Ivysaur's legs and trunk grow thick and strong. If it starts spending more time lying in the sunlight, it's a sign that the bud will bloom into a large flower soon. To support its bulb, Ivysaur's legs grow sturdy. If it spends more time lying in the sunlight, the bud will soon bloom into a large flower. There is a plant bulb on its back. When it absorbs nutrients, the bulb is said to blossom into a large flower. When the bud on its back starts swelling, a sweet aroma wafts to indicate the flower's coming bloom. The bud on its back grows by drawing energy. It gives off an aroma when it is ready to bloom.

See Bulbasaur.

Venusaur
The plant blooms when it is absorbing solar energy. It stays on the move to seek sunlight. The flower on its back catches the sun's rays. The sunlight is then absorbed and used for energy. Absorbs solar energy as nutrition. When it is catching the sun's rays, it often remains quiet and still. By spreading the broad petals of its flower and catching the sun's rays, it fills its body with power. It is able to convert sunlight into energy. As a result, it is more powerful in the summertime. As it warms itself and absorbs the sunlight, its flower petals release a pleasant fragrance. There is a large flower on Venusaur's back. The flower is said to take on vivid colors if it gets plenty of nutrition and sunlight. The flower's aroma soothes the emotions of people. Venusaur's flower is said to take on vivid colors if it gets plenty of nutrition and sunlight. The flower's aroma soothes the emotions of people. A bewitching aroma wafts from its flower. The fragrance becalms those engaged in a battle. After a rainy day, the flower on its back smells stronger. The scent attracts other Pokémon.

See Bulbasaur.

Mega Venusaur
In order to support its flower, which has grown larger due to Mega Evolution, its back and legs have become stronger.

Gigantamax Venusaur
In battle, this Pokémon swings around two thick vines. If these vines slammed into a 10-story building, they could easily topple it. Huge amounts of pollen burst from it with the force of a volcanic eruption. Breathing in too much of the pollen can cause fainting.

Charmander
Obviously prefers hot places. When it rains, steam is said to spout from the tip of its tail. The flame at the tip of its tail makes a sound as it burns. You can only hear it in quiet places. Even the newborns have flaming tails. Unfamiliar with fire, babies are said to accidentally burn themselves. The flame on its tail shows the strength of its life force. If it is weak, the flame also burns weakly. The flame on its tail indicates Charmander's life force. If it is healthy, the flame burns brightly. If it's healthy, the flame on the tip of its tail will burn vigorously, even if it gets a bit wet. The flame that burns at the tip of its tail is an indication of its emotions. The flame wavers when Charmander is enjoying itself. If the Pokémon becomes enraged, the flame burns fiercely. The flame that burns at the tip of its tail is an indication of its emotions. The flame wavers when Charmander is happy, and blazes when it is enraged. From the time it is born, a flame burns at the tip of its tail. Its life would end if the flame were to go out. It has a preference for hot things. When it rains, steam is said to spout from the tip of its tail. The fire on the tip of its tail is a measure of its life. If healthy, its tail burns intensely.

Generally found in rocky, cliffy areas, often in caves. It likely lives in caves to protect it from the rain, however it may have also evolved its flaming tail to see in the dark of caves. It may live in rocky areas so it doesn't set fire to plant life, or to use the terrain to hunt for prey and/or avoid predators. It may also be to test the temperature of the flames against the rocks. Due to its tendency to live near places devoid of plant life, and the fact that its tail would combust any plants it approaches, it is likely a carnivore, which fits in with its evolutions nature. Its powers of fire mean it likely hunts just about anything that is its size or smaller.

Charmeleon
When it swings its burning tail, it elevates the temperature to unbearably high levels. Tough fights could excite this Pokémon. When excited, it may blow out bluish-white flames. It appears to be very vicious. It attacks with razor-sharp claws and won't stop until the enemy is defeated. It is very hot-headed by nature, so it constantly seeks opponents. It calms down only when it wins. It has a barbaric nature. In battle, it whips its fiery tail around and slashes away with sharp claws. If it becomes agitated during battle, it spouts intense flames, incinerating its surroundings. Charmeleon mercilessly destroys its foes using its sharp claws. If it encounters a strong foe, it turns aggressive. In this excited state, the flame at the tip of its tail flares with a bluish white color. Without pity, its sharp claws destroy foes. If it encounters a strong enemy, it becomes agitated, and the flame on its tail flares with a bluish white color. It lashes about with its tail to knock down its foe. It then tears up the fallen opponent with sharp claws. In the rocky mountains where Charmeleon live, their fiery tails shine at night like stars.

Like its pre-evolution, Charmeleon is likely a carnivore. Due to its nature, it likely hunts anything it sees.

Charizard
Spits fire that is hot enough to melt boulders. Known to cause forest fires unintentionally. When expelling a blast of super hot fire, the red flame at the tip of its tail burns more intensely. Its fiery breath reaches incredible temperatures. It can quickly melt glaciers weighing 10,000 tons. If Charizard becomes furious, the flame at the tip of its tail flares up into a whitish-blue color. Breathing intense, hot flames, it can melt almost anything. Its breath inflicts terrible pain on enemies. It uses its wings to fly high. The temperature of its fire increases as it gains experience in battle. Charizard flies around the sky in search of powerful opponents. It breathes fire of such great heat that it melts anything. However, it never turns its fiery breath on any opponent weaker than itself. A Charizard flies about in search of strong opponents. It breathes intense flames that can melt any material. However, it will never torch a weaker foe. Its wings can carry this Pokémon close to an altitude of 4,600 feet. It blows out fire at very high temperatures. It spits fire that is hot enough to melt boulders. It may cause forest fires by blowing flames. It is said that Charizard's fire burns hotter if it has experienced harsh battles.

Like Charmeleon, it is probably a carnivore that will prey on anything stronger than it, however it might not prey on things weaker than it. I say might, because the dex is oddly specific with its wording.

Mega Charizard X
The overwhelming power that fills its entire body causes it to turn black and creates intense blue flames.

Mega Charizard Y
Its bond with its Trainer is the source of its power. It boasts speed and maneuverability greater than that of a jet fighter.

Gigantamax Charizard
This colossal, flame-winged figure of a Charizard was brought about by Gigantamax energy. The flame inside its body burns hotter than 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit. When Charizard roars, that temperature climbs even higher.

Squirtle
After birth, its back swells and hardens into a shell. Powerfully sprays foam from its mouth. Shoots water at prey while in the water. Withdraws into its shell when in danger. It takes time for the shell to form and harden after hatching. It sprays foam powerfully from its mouth. The shell is soft when it is born. It soon becomes so resilient, prodding fingers will bounce off it. The shell, which hardens soon after it is born, is resilient. If you poke it, it will bounce back out. When it feels threatened, it draws its legs inside its shell and sprays water from its mouth. Squirtle's shell is not merely used for protection. The shell's rounded shape and the grooves on its surface help minimize resistance in water, enabling this Pokémon to swim at high speeds. Its shell is not just for protection. Its rounded shape and the grooves on its surface minimize resistance in water, enabling Squirtle to swim at high speeds. When it retracts its long neck into its shell, it squirts out water with vigorous force. It shelters itself in its shell, then strikes back with spouts of water at every opportunity.

Unsurprisingly found near water.

Wartortle
Often hides in water to stalk unwary prey. For swimming fast, it moves its ears to maintain balance. When tapped, this Pokémon will pull in its head, but its tail will still stick out a little bit. The tail is covered with a rich fur. It stores air in the fur before taking extended dives underwater. It is recognized as a symbol of longevity. If its shell has algae on it, that Wartortle is very old. It cleverly controls its furry ears and tail to maintain its balance while swimming. Its long, furry tail is a symbol of longevity, making it quite popular among older people. Its tail is large and covered with a rich, thick fur. The tail becomes increasingly deeper in color as Wartortle ages. The scratches on its shell are evidence of this Pokémon's toughness as a battler. Its large tail is covered with rich, thick fur that deepens in color with age. The scratches on its shell are evidence of this Pokémon's toughness in battle. This Pokémon is very popular as a pet. Its fur-covered tail is a symbol of its longevity. It is said to live 10,000 years. Its furry tail is popular as a symbol of longevity.

Said to be a carnivore or an omnivore. Squirtle is often found near Tentacool, and sea turtles IRL eat jellyfish, so that's probably on the menu.

Blastoise
A brutal Pokémon with pressurized water jets on its shell. They are used for high speed tackles. Once it takes aim at its enemy, it blasts out water with even more force than a fire hose. It has spouts extending from its shell at the top. They spray water like cannons, hard enough to pierce concrete walls. It deliberately makes itself heavy so it can withstand the recoil of the water jets it fires. The rocket cannons on its shell fire jets of water capable of punching holes through thick steel. It firmly plants its feet on the ground before shooting water from the jets on its back. Blastoise has water spouts that protrude from its shell. The water spouts are very accurate. They can shoot bullets of water with enough accuracy to strike empty cans from a distance of over 160 feet. The waterspouts that protrude from its shell are highly accurate. Their bullets of water can precisely nail tin cans from a distance of over 160 feet. It crushes its foe under its heavy body to cause fainting. In a pinch, it will withdraw inside its shell. The pressurized water jets on this brutal Pokémon's shell are used for high-speed tackles. The jets of water it spouts from the rocket cannons on its shell can punch through thick steel.

Mega Blastoise
The cannon on its back is as powerful as a tank gun. Its tough legs and back enable it to withstand the recoil from firing the cannon.

Gigantamax Blastoise
It's not very good at precision shooting. When attacking, it just fires its 31 cannons over and over and over. Water fired from this Pokémon's central main cannon has enough power to blast a hole into a mountain.

Caterpie
Its short feet are tipped with suction pads that enable it to tirelessly climb slopes and walls. If you touch the feeler on top of its head, it will release a horrible stink to protect itself. It has large, eye-like patterns on its head as protection. They are used to frighten off enemies. For protection, it releases a horrible stench from the antennae on its head to drive away enemies. For protection, it releases a horrible stench from the antennae on its head to drive away enemies. It crawls into foliage where it camouflages itself among leaves that are the same color as its body. Caterpie has a voracious appetite. It can devour leaves bigger than its body right before your eyes. From its antenna, this Pokémon releases a terrifically strong odor. Its voracious appetite compels it to devour leaves bigger than itself without hesitation. It releases a terribly strong odor from its antennae. It is covered with a green skin. When it grows, it sheds the skin, covers itself with silk, and becomes a cocoon. It releases a stench from its red antenna to repel enemies. It grows by molting repeatedly. When attacked by bird Pokémon, it resists by releasing a terrifically strong odor from its antennae, but it often becomes their prey. It's easy to catch, and it grows quickly, making it one of the top recommendations for novice Pokémon Trainers. Perhaps because it would like to grow up quickly, it has a voracious appetite, eating a hundred leaves a day. Its body is soft and weak. In nature, its perpetual fate is to be seen by others as food.

Caterpie is generally found around forests, likely because it eats leaves.

Metapod

This Pokémon is vulnerable to attack while its shell is soft, exposing its weak and tender body. Hardens its shell to protect itself. However, a large impact may cause it to pop out of its shell. When it hardens, only the external shell is transformed. The inside remains tender. Inside the shell, it is soft and weak as it prepares to evolve. It stays motionless in the shell. It prepares for evolution by hardening its shell as much as possible to protect its soft body. This is its preevolved form. At this stage, it can only harden, so it remains motionless to avoid attack. The shell covering this Pokémon's body is as hard as an iron slab. Metapod does not move very much. It stays still because it is preparing its soft innards for evolution inside the hard shell. Its shell is as hard as an iron slab. A Metapod does not move very much because it is preparing its soft innards for evolution inside the shell. Even though it is encased in a sturdy shell, the body inside is tender. It can't withstand a harsh attack. A steel-hard shell protects its tender body. It quietly endures hardships while awaiting evolution. Its shell is filled with its soft innards. It doesn't move much because of the risk it might carelessly spill its innards out. Its shell is hard, but it's still just a bug shell. It's been known to break, so intense battles with it should be avoided. Its shell is filled with a thick liquid. All of the cells throughout its body are being rebuilt in preparation for evolution. Its hard shell doesn't crack a bit even if Pikipek pecks at it, but it will tip over, spilling out its insides.

The dex states that Metapod does not move because it might tip over and spill its insides. How is that possible? Metapod has always been depicted as a cocoon with no holes. It doesn't even have a mouth. Does it spill out its eyes? My best guess is that there is a small hole for Metapod to breathe out of that its insides could spill out of.

Butterfree

In battle, it flaps its wings at high speed to release highly toxic dust into the air. Its wings, covered with poisonous powders, repel water. This allows it to fly in the rain. Its wings are covered with poisonous dust. If you see one flapping its wings, be careful not to inhale any of the dust. It collects honey every day. It rubs honey onto the hairs on its legs to carry it back to its nest. Water-repellent powder on its wings enables it to collect honey, even in the heaviest of rains. It flits from flower to flower, collecting honey. It can even identify distant flowers in bloom. Butterfree has a superior ability to search for delicious honey from flowers. It can even search out, extract, and carry honey from flowers that are blooming over six miles from its nest. It has a superior ability to search for delicious honey from flowers. It can seek, extract, and carry honey from flowers blooming over six miles away. The wings are protected by a rain-repellent dust. As a result, this Pokémon can fly about even in rain. It loves the honey of flowers and can locate flower patches that have even tiny amounts of pollen. Close examination of its large eyes reveals that each eye is composed of a myriad of tiny eyes. When attacked by other Pokémon, it defends itself by scattering its poisonous scales and fluttering its wings. Its wings are covered in toxic scales. If it finds bird Pokémon going after Caterpie, Butterfree sprinkles its scales on them to drive them off. Nectar from pretty flowers is its favorite food. In fields of flowers, it has heated battles with Cutiefly for territory.

Butterfree can be found pretty much anywhere. It is unclear whether poison is released every time Butterfree flaps its wings, or just when it wants to.

Gigantamax Butterfree
Crystallized Gigantamax energy makes up this Pokémon's blindingly bright and highly toxic scales. Once it has opponents trapped in a tornado that could blow away a 10-ton truck, it finishes them off with its poisonous scales.

Weedle
Often found in forests, eating leaves. It has a sharp venomous stinger on its head. Beware of the sharp stinger on its head. It hides in grass and bushes where it eats leaves. A common sight in forests and grassy areas. Has a poison stinger on its head that may be used if you step on it. Its poison stinger is very powerful. Its bright-colored body is intended to warn off its enemies. It attacks using a two-inch poison barb on its head. It can usually be found under the leaves it eats. The barb on top of its head secretes a strong poison. It uses this toxic barb to protect itself. Weedle has an extremely acute sense of smell. It is capable of distinguishing its favorite kinds of leaves from those it dislikes just by sniffing with its big red proboscis (nose). A Weedle has an extremely acute sense of smell.

See Caterpie.

Kakuna
Almost incapable of moving, this Pokémon can only harden its shell to protect itself from predators. Able to move only slightly. When endangered, it may stick out its stinger and poison its enemy. Because it is virtually motionless, it may appear dead. Inside, however, a new body is being made. Although it is a cocoon, it can move a little. It can extend its poison barb if it is attacked. From this form, it will grow into an adult. As its body becomes softer, the external shell hardens. Nearly incapable of movement, it leans against stout trees while waiting for its evolution. Kakuna remains virtually immobile as it clings to a tree. However, on the inside, it is extremely busy as it prepares for its coming evolution. This is evident from how hot the shell becomes to the touch. It remains virtually immobile while it clings to a tree. However, on the inside, it busily prepares for evolution. This is evident from how hot its shell becomes. This Pokémon is in a temporary stage while making its body. It is almost completely unable to move on its own.

Beedrill
Flies at high speed and attacks using its large venomous stingers on its forelegs and tail. It has 3 poisonous stingers on its forelegs and its tail. They are used to jab its enemy repeatedly. Flies at high speeds and attacks with three stingers: one on its rear and one on each of its two forelegs. May appear in swarms. It can take down any opponent with its powerful poison stingers.

Flies at violent speeds, all the while stabbing with the toxic stinger on its rear. It flies at high speed and attacks using the large venomous stingers on its forelegs and tail. Its best attack involves flying around at high speed, striking with poison needles, then flying off.

Eats meat, presumably anything small enough for it to carry. Found near trees, likely because that's where Weedle inhabit. It may be tempting to say that they live in beehives, but I dont know of a beehive that can fit even five Beedrill, and I dont know of any tree that can hold a beehive that can fit even five Beedrill.

Mega Beedrill
Its legs have become poison stingers. It stabs its prey repeatedly with the stingers on its limbs, dealing the final blow with the stinger on its rear.

Pidgey

A common sight in forests and woods. It flaps its wings at ground level to kick up blinding sand. Very docile. If attacked, it will often kick up sand to protect itself rather than fight back. If at all possible, it will try to avoid battles. Small or weak enemies are blown away by Whirlwind. It usually hides in tall grass. Because it dislikes fighting, it protects itself by kicking up sand. Common in grassy areas and forests, it is very docile and will chase off enemies by flapping up sand. It rapidly flaps its wings in the grass, stirring up a dust cloud that drives insect prey out into the open. Pidgey has an extremely sharp sense of direction. It is capable of unerringly returning home to its nest, however far it may be removed from its familiar surroundings. It has an extremely sharp sense of direction.

It slowly flies in a circular pattern, all the while keeping a sharp lookout for prey. Pidgeotto claims a large area as its own territory. This Pokémon flies around, patrolling its living space. If its territory is violated, it shows no mercy in thoroughly punishing the foe with its sharp claws. This Pokémon flies around, patrolling its large territory. If its living space is violated, it shows no mercy in thoroughly punishing the foe with its sharp claws. The claws on its feet are well developed. It can carry prey such as an Exeggcute to its nest over 60 miles away. It flies over its wide territory in search of prey, downing it with its highly developed claws.

Like its pre-evo, its dex entry is all-encompassing. The only thing to note is that carrying Exeggcute probably refers to just one of them, rather than all of them.

Pidgeot
When hunting, it skims the surface of water at high speed to pick off unwary prey such as Magikarp. This Pokémon flies at Mach 2 speed, seeking prey. Its large talons are feared as wicked weapons. Capable of flying incredibly quickly. In full flight, by the time its flapping is heard, it is long gone.

Mega Pidgeot
With its muscular strength now greatly increased, it can fly continuously for two weeks without resting.

Rattata
Bites anything when it attacks. Small and very quick, it is a common sight in many places. Will chew on anything with its fangs. If you see one, it is certain that 40 more live in the area. Scurries around quickly, searching for hard objects to gnaw. It appears to be jittery and unable to remain still. It eats everything. Wherever food is available, it will settle down and produce offspring continuously. Living wherever there is food available, it ceaselessly scavenges for edibles the entire day. This Pokémon's impressive vitality allows it to live anywhere. It also multiplies very quickly. Rattata is cautious in the extreme. Even while it is asleep, it constantly listens by moving its ears around. It is not picky about where it lives - it will make its nest anywhere. A Rattata is cautious in the extreme. Even while it is asleep, it constantly moves its ears and listens for danger. It will make its nest anywhere. Its fangs are long and very sharp. They grow continuously, so it gnaws on hard things to whittle them down. Cautious in the extreme, its hardy vitality lets it live in any kind of environment. It searches for food all day. It gnaws on hard objects to wear down its fangs, which grow constantly during its lifetime. Its incisors continue growing until its death.

Left unchecked, their numbers multiply rapidly. Its incisors grow continuously throughout its life. If its incisors get too long, this Pokémon becomes unable to eat, and it starves to death. This Pokémon is common but hazardous. Its sharp incisors can easily cut right through hard wood. It's cautious in the extreme, and its hardy vitality lets it live in any kind of environment.

Alolan Rattata
With its incisors, it gnaws through doors and infiltrates people's homes. Then, with a twitch of its whiskers, it steals whatever food it finds. When the sun goes down, it becomes active. It runs around town on a chase for good food for the boss of its nest—Raticate. It shows no interest in anything that isn't fresh. If you take it shopping with you, it will help you pick out ingredients. Night after night, they sneak into people's homes seeking food. A massive outbreak of them has become an issue of public concern. Its whiskers provide it with a keen sense of smell, enabling it to pick up the scent of hidden food and locate it instantly.

In nature, creatures on islands often evolve to specialize for their environment. A common example of this is birds becoming flightless because there are no predators. This is likely what happened here. The island likely had an abundance of food with little to no predators, so Rattata evolved to choose the most nutritious food instead of whatever it could find. As humans moved in and the environment changed, they started raiding human settlements for food, and used gang strategies to accomplish this.

Raticate
It uses its whiskers to maintain its balance. It apparently slows down if they are cut off. Its hind feet are webbed. They act as flippers, so it can swim in rivers and hunt for prey. If attacked, it stands up on its hind legs, bares its fangs and shrieks in an intimidating manner at its enemy. Gnaws on anything with its tough fangs. It can even topple concrete buildings by gnawing on them. Its whiskers help it to maintain balance. Its fangs never stop growing, so it gnaws to pare them down. The webs on its hind legs enable it to cross rivers. It searches wide areas for food. Raticate's sturdy fangs grow steadily. To keep them ground down, it gnaws on rocks and logs.

With its long fangs, this surprisingly violent Pokémon can gnaw away even thick concrete with ease. Its hind feet are webbed, so it's a strong swimmer. It can cross rivers and sometimes even oceans. Its disposition is far more violent than its looks would suggest. Don't let your hand get too close to its face, as it could bite your hand clean off. People say that it fled from its enemies by using its small webbed hind feet to swim from island to island in Alola. Its whiskers are essential for maintaining its balance. No matter how friendly you are, it will get angry and bite you if you touch its whiskers.

Alolan Raticate
It forms a group of Rattata, which it assumes command of. Each group has its own territory, and disputes over food happen often. This gourmet Pokémon is particular about the taste and freshness of its food. Restaurants where Raticate live have a good reputation. It has an incredibly greedy personality. Its nest is filled with so much food gathered by Rattata at its direction, it can't possibly eat it all. It commands a nest of Rattata. Different nests don't get along, whipping up severe fights over feeding grounds. It makes its Rattata underlings gather food for it, dining solely on the most nutritious and delicious fare.

It is likely that Alolan Raticate store fat to make themselves bigger so they appear more intimidating. This likely plays a role in which groups of Rattata control more areas, as groups will give in to other groups with more intimidating leaders. It is also possible that it stores blubber to keep it warm in water, as it may still be aquatic.

Spearow

Eats bugs in grassy areas. It has to flap its short wings at high speed to stay airborne. Inept at flying high. However, it can fly around very fast to protect its territory. Its wings are short, so it can't fly a long distance. If it's not eating, it darts around in a hurry. It flaps its short wings to flush out insects from tall grass. It then plucks them with its stubby beak. Very protective of its territory, it flaps its short wings busily to dart around at high speed. To protect its territory, it flies around ceaselessly, making high-pitched cries. Spearow has a very loud cry that can be heard over half a mile away. If its high, keening cry is heard echoing all around, it is a sign that they are warning each other of danger. Its loud cry can be heard over half a mile away. If its high, keening cry is heard echoing all around, it is a sign that they are warning each other of danger. It busily flits around here and there. Even if it is frail, it can be a tough foe that uses Mirror Move. It flaps its small wings busily to fly. Using its beak, it searches in grass for prey. Its short wings make it inept at flying. It moves about hurriedly and pecks at Bug-type Pokémon in the tall grass. Farmers whose fields are troubled by bug Pokémon appreciate Spearow for its vigorous appetite and look after it. Its reckless nature leads it to stand up to others—even large Pokémon—if it has to protect its territory. Due to its short wings, it can't fly long distances. It wanders about restlessly and pecks at bug Pokémon.

Found in a number of areas, but it apparently prefers to be around bug Pokemon. However, it may choose other locations if it supplies a safer nest, such as Route 225 in Sinnoh.

Fearow
With its huge and magnificent wings, it can keep aloft without ever having to land for rest. A Pokémon that dates back many years. If it senses danger, it flies high and away, instantly. A Pokémon that enjoys flying. It uses its broad wings to adroitly catch the wind to soar elegantly into the sky. It shoots itself suddenly high into the sky, then plummets down in one fell swoop to strike its prey. It cleverly uses its thin, long beak to pluck and eat small insects that hide under the ground. It uses its long beak to attack. It has a surprisingly long reach, so it must be treated with caution. Fearow is recognized by its long neck and elongated beak. They are conveniently shaped for catching prey in soil or water. It deftly moves its long and skinny beak to pluck prey. Its long neck and elongated beak are ideal for catching prey in soil or water. It deftly moves this extended and skinny beak to pluck prey. Its huge and magnificent wings can keep it aloft in the sky. It can remain flying a whole day without landing. It has the stamina to fly all day on its broad wings. It fights using its sharp beak. It has the stamina to keep flying all day on its broad wings. It fights by using its sharp beak. It's tough and has excellent stamina. It has no problem flying continuously for a whole day carrying a heavy load. Drawings of a Pokémon resembling Fearow can be seen in murals from deep in ancient history. Carrying food through Fearow's territory is dangerous. It will snatch the food away from you in a flash! In Alola, fish Pokémon are its prey. It can be seen circling above the ocean searching for food.

Ekans
Moves silently and stealthily. Eats the eggs of birds, such as Pidgey and Spearow, whole. The older it gets, the longer it grows. At night, it wraps its long body around tree branches to rest. Slithers silently through grass, searching for its favorite food—Pidgey and Spearow eggs. It can freely detach its jaw to swallow large prey whole. It can become too heavy to move, however. It always hides in grass. When first born, it has no poison, so its bite is painful, but harmless. It flutters the tip of its tongue to seek out the scent of prey, then swallows the prey whole. Ekans curls itself up in a spiral while it rests. Assuming this position allows it to quickly respond to a threat from any direction with a glare from its upraised head. An Ekans curls itself up in a spiral while it rests. This position allows it to quickly respond to an enemy from any direction with a threat from its upraised head. A very common sight in grassland, etc. It flicks its tongue in and out to sense danger in its surroundings. Moving silently and stealthily, it eats the eggs of birds, such as Pidgey and Spearow, whole. It sneaks through grass without making a sound and strikes unsuspecting prey from behind. By dislocating its jaw, it can swallow prey larger than itself. After a meal, it curls up and rests. The eggs of bird Pokémon are its favorite food. It swallows eggs whole, so sometimes an egg gets stuck, and Ekans faints.

Arbok
It is rumored that the ferocious warning markings on its belly differ from area to area. The frightening patterns on its belly have been studied. Six variations have been confirmed. If it encounters an enemy, it raises its head, intimidating the opponent with the frightening pattern on its body. Transfixing prey with the face-like pattern on its belly, it binds and poisons the frightened victim. With a very vengeful nature, it won't give up the chase, no matter how far, once it targets its prey. To intimidate foes, it spreads its chest wide and makes eerie sounds by expelling air from its mouth. This Pokémon is terrifically strong in order to constrict things with its body. It can even flatten steel oil drums. Once Arbok wraps its body around its foe, escaping its crunching embrace is impossible. This Pokémon has a terrifically strong constricting power. It can even flatten steel oil drums. Once it wraps its body around its foe, escaping is impossible. The pattern on its belly appears to be a frightening face. Weak foes will flee just at the sight of the pattern. The pattern on its belly is for intimidation. It constricts foes when they are frozen in fear. The latest research has determined that there are over 20 possible arrangements of the patterns on its stomach. After stunning its opponents with the pattern on its stomach, it quickly wraps them up in its body and waits for them to stop moving.

Pikachu
When several of these Pokémon gather, their electricity could build and cause lightning storms. It keeps its tail raised to monitor its surroundings. If you yank its tail, it will try to bite you. Lives in forests away from people. It stores electricity in its cheeks for zapping an enemy if it is attacked. This intelligent Pokémon roasts hard berries with electricity to make them tender enough to eat. It raises its tail to check its surroundings. The tail is sometimes struck by lightning in this pose. When it is angered, it immediately discharges the energy stored in the pouches in its cheeks. Whenever Pikachu comes across something new, it blasts it with a jolt of electricity. If you come across a blackened berry, it's evidence that this Pokémon mistook the intensity of its charge. This Pokémon has electricity-storing pouches on its cheeks. These appear to become electrically charged during the night while Pikachu sleeps. It occasionally discharges electricity when it is dozy after waking up. It stores electricity in the electric sacs on its cheeks. When it releases pent-up energy in a burst, the electric power is equal to a lightning bolt. It has small electric sacs on both its cheeks. If threatened, it looses electric charges from the sacs. It lives in forests with others. It stores electricity in the pouches on its cheeks. If it looses crackling power from the electrical pouches on its cheeks, it is being wary. It occasionally uses an electric shock to recharge a fellow Pikachu that is in a weakened state. A plan was recently announced to gather many Pikachu and make an electric power plant. It's in its nature to store electricity. It feels stressed now and then if it's unable to fully discharge the electricity. Its nature is to store up electricity. Forests where nests of Pikachu live are dangerous, since the trees are so often struck by lightning. While sleeping, it generates electricity in the sacs in its cheeks. If it's not getting enough sleep, it will be able to use only weak electricity. This forest-dwelling Pokémon stores electricity in its cheeks, so you'll feel a tingly shock if you touch it. Pikachu that can generate powerful electricity have cheek sacs that are extra soft and super stretchy. When Pikachu meet, they'll touch their tails together and exchange electricity through them as a form of greeting. Possesses cheek sacs in which it stores electricity. This clever forest-dweller roasts tough berries with an electric shock before consuming them.

I don't know how raising its tail helps it check its surroundings. One possibility is that it doesn't, and that the position of its tail is simply a byproduct of the pose it uses to check its surroundings.

Pikachu in a cap
This form of Pikachu is somewhat rare. It wears the hat of its Trainer, who is also its partner. This Pikachu is wearing its Trainer's cap. Since the cap's not the right size, the fit is a bit loose.

Gigantimax Pikachu
Its Gigantamax power expanded, forming its supersized body and towering tail. When it smashes its opponents with its bolt-shaped tail, it delivers a surge of electricity equivalent to a lightning strike.

Raichu
Its long tail serves as a ground to protect itself from its own high voltage power. When electricity builds up inside its body, it becomes feisty. It also glows in the dark. Its electrical attacks may reach 10,000 volts. It discharges electricity from its tail, so it is not harmed by its own power. When its electricity builds, its muscles are stimulated, and it becomes more aggressive than usual. If the electric pouches in its cheeks become fully charged, both ears will stand straight up. If its electric pouches run empty, it raises its tail to gather electricity from the atmosphere. If the electrical sacks become excessively charged, Raichu plants its tail in the ground and discharges. Scorched patches of ground will be found near this Pokémon's nest. This Pokémon exudes a weak electrical charge from all over its body that makes it take on a slight glow in darkness. Raichu searches for electricity by planting its tail in the ground. If it stores too much electricity, its behavior turns aggressive. To avoid this, it occasionally discharges excess energy and calms itself down. Its electric charges can reach even 100,000 volts. Careless contact can cause even an Indian elephant to faint. It turns aggressive if it has too much electricity in its body. It discharges power through its tail. It can loose 100,000-volt bursts of electricity, instantly downing foes several times its size. Its tail discharges electricity into the ground, protecting it from getting shocked. It unleashes electric shocks that can reach 100,000 volts. When agitated, it can knock out even an Indian elephant. It becomes aggressive when it has electricity stored up. At such times, even its Trainer has to take care to avoid being attacked. As electricity builds up inside its body, it becomes more aggressive. One theory is that the electricity buildup is actually causing stress. Because so many Trainers like the way Pikachu looks, you don't see this Pokémon very often. It can discharge bursts of electricity exceeding 100,000 volts—a single strike with that amount of power would incapacitate one of the Copperajah of my homeland.

This is the first addition of the mention of animals in the pokedex. For the purpose of this guide, I will assume that the concept of real world animals exists in the pokemon universe, but for whatever reason, be it they only exist in concept, they are mythical creatures, they are extinct, they are very endangered, ect., they aren't common enough in the universe to play a role in anything. Besides this, there are more confusing things about Raichus dex entries. First of all, the Indian elephant claim was replaced by Copperaja. It is possible that they can do both however it is also possible that Elephant is either another word for Copperaja, or a word to describe similar Pokemon. Second of all, it says that Raichu puts its tail in the ground to search for electricity. That makes no sense, especially considering that it does the same thing to get rid of electricity. I have a few theories about this. The first one is that they look for wires in the ground. The second one is that they stick their tail in the ground to check for energy discharged by other Raichu.

Alolan Raichu
It only evolves to this form in the Alola region. According to researchers, its diet is one of the causes of this change. It uses psychokinesis to control electricity. It hops aboard its own tail, using psychic power to lift the tail and move about while riding it. It focuses psychic energy into its tail and rides it like it's surfing. Another name for this Pokémon is “hodad.” When you rub its cheeks, a sweet fragrance comes wafting out. However, you'll also get a light shock! It loves pancakes prepared with a secret Alolan recipe. Some wonder whether that recipe holds the key to this Pokémon's evolution. It's believed that the weather, climate, and food of the Alola region all play a part in causing Pikachu to evolve into this form of Raichu. This Pokémon rides on its tail while it uses its psychic powers to levitate. It attacks with star-shaped thunderbolts.

I don't know why it evolved to look like this. Figuring out how psychic powers work in the Pokemon universe is out of my jurisdiction.

Sandshrew
Burrows deep underground in arid locations far from water. It only emerges to hunt for food. Its body is dry. When it gets cold at night, its hide is said to become coated with a fine dew. When hunting, it hides at the lip of its burrow. If prey comes close, it lunges out and drags in the prey instantly. If it fell from a great height, this Pokémon could save itself by rolling into a ball and bouncing. Disliking water, it lives in deep burrows in arid areas. It can roll itself instantly into a ball. It prefers dry, sandy places because it uses the sand to protect itself when threatened. Sandshrew's body is configured to absorb water without waste, enabling it to survive in an arid desert. This Pokémon curls up to protect itself from its enemies. Sandshrew has a very dry hide that is extremely tough. The Pokémon can roll into a ball that repels any attack. At night, it burrows into the desert sand to sleep. When it curls up in a ball, it can make any attack bounce off harmlessly. Its hide has turned tough and solid as a result of living in the desert. It burrows and lives underground. If threatened, it curls itself up into a ball for protection. To protect itself from attackers, it curls up into a ball. It lives in arid regions with minimal rainfall. It digs deep burrows to live in. When in danger, it rolls up its body to withstand attacks. It can roll its body into a ball. It moves through the desert by rolling at high speeds. It usually makes its home in deserts and arid zones, where rain does not fall. It digs holes to catch Bug-type Pokémon. It lives in areas of limited rainfall. When danger approaches, it curls up into a ball to protect its soft stomach. When its skin gets wrinkled from moisture, it heads for a volcano. It lies flat on a spot with a lot of geothermal heat and dries itself out. It loves to bathe in the grit of dry, sandy areas. By sand bathing, this Pokémon rids itself of dirt and moisture clinging to its body. It burrows into the ground to create its nest. If hard stones impede its tunneling, it uses its sharp claws to scatter them and then carries on digging.

Alolan Sandshrew
It lives on snowy mountains. Its steel shell is very hard—so much so, it can't roll its body up into a ball. An ancient tradition of Alolan festivals, still carried on to this day, is a competition to slide Sandshrew across ice as far as one can. After fleeing a volcanic eruption, it ended up moving to an area of snowy mountains. Its ice shell is as hard as steel. The skin on its back is as hard as steel. Predators go after its soft belly, so it clings to the ground desperately.

I'm not sure if its shell is made out of steel, or just as hard as it.

Sandslash
Curls up into a spiny ball when threatened. It can roll while curled up to attack or escape. It is skilled at slashing enemies with its claws. If broken, they start to grow back in a day. Curls into a ball of sharp spikes and rolls into enemies. It is also adept at slashing with its sharp claws. In an attempt to hide itself, it will run around at top speed to kick up a blinding dust storm. If it digs at an incredible pace, it may snap off its spikes and claws. They grow back in a day. Adept at climbing trees, it rolls into a spiny ball, then attacks its enemies from above. Sandslash's body is covered by tough spikes, which are hardened sections of its hide. Once a year, the old spikes fall out, to be replaced with new spikes that grow out from beneath the old ones. Sandslash can roll up its body as if it were a ball covered with large spikes. In battle, this Pokémon will try to make the foe flinch by jabbing it with its spines. It then leaps at the stunned foe to tear wildly with its sharp claws. It curls up in a ball to protect itself from enemy attacks. It also curls up to prevent heatstroke during the daytime when temperatures rise sharply. It is adept at attacking with the spines on its back and its sharp claws while quickly scurrying about. It curls up, then rolls into foes with its back. Its sharp spines inflict severe damage. The spikes on its body are made up of its hardened hide. It rolls up and attacks foes with its spikes. Although they are sharp, its claws and spikes often break off. They grow back the next day, so it is not bothered by the temporary loss. It uses its claws to climb trees and then curls its body into a spiny ball, ready to drop onto any prey that appears. Its claws and horns often break off. The broken claws and horns can be used to carve plows for tilling farm fields. Thanks to its thick claws, it's good at climbing trees. There are plenty of Sandslash that park themselves in trees and go right to sleep. The drier the area Sandslash lives in, the harder and smoother the Pokémon's spikes feel when touched. It climbs trees by hooking on with its sharp claws. Sandslash shares the berries it gathers, dropping them down to Sandshrew waiting below the tree.

Probably hunts things its size or smaller, as well as things that live in trees.

Alolan Sandslash
Fleeing a volcanic eruption, it settled on a snowy mountain. As it races through the snowfields, it sends up a spray of snow. This Pokémon's steel spikes are sheathed in ice. Stabs from these spikes cause deep wounds and severe frostbite as well. It runs across snow-covered plains at high speeds. It developed thick, sharp claws to plow through the snow. A long, long time ago, it lived in the desert. With its sharp claws fully extended, it can climb right up an iceberg without slipping. This is Sandslash's form after adaptation to a frigid environment. The cold air emitted by its body sharpens its icy spikes. It uses large, hooked claws to cut a path through deep snow as it runs. On snowy mountains, this Sandslash is faster than any other Pokémon. Many people climb snowy mountains, hoping to see the icy spikes of these Pokémon glistening in the light of dawn.

Since steel is usually used to describe something hard, not sharp, I believe the spikes of Alolan Sandslash are literally made of steel. This may mean that its pre-evolution also has a shell of steel.

Nidoran♀
Although small, its venomous barbs render this Pokémon dangerous. The female has smaller horns. A mild-mannered Pokémon that does not like to fight. Beware, its small horns secrete venom. Although small, it should be treated with caution because of its highly toxic thorns. The female has a small horn. The poison hidden in its small horn is extremely potent. Even a tiny scratch can have fatal results. Although not very combative, it will torment its foes with poison spikes if it is threatened in any way. Small and very docile, it protects itself with its small, poisonous horn when attacked. 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. Its highly toxic barbs are thought to have developed as protection for this small-bodied Pokémon. When enraged, it releases a horrible toxin from its horn. Though small, it must be treated with caution because of its powerfully toxic barbs. The female has smaller horns. While it does not prefer to fight, even one drop of the poison it secretes from its barbs can be fatal. 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. A mild-mannered Pokémon that does not like to fight. Beware–its small horn secretes venom. Females are more sensitive to smells than males. While foraging, they'll use their whiskers to check wind direction and stay downwind of predators. 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.

Oh boy. This is very complicated.
So, Pokemon breeding mechanics are almost certainly non-canon. But surprisingly, egg groups aren't the issue. Egg groups are reminiscent of sexes. That may seem like an issue, given that there are only two sexes (there is a difference between sex and gender), with some mutations being the rare exceptions, however that is only the case with animals. Fungi are wild and have a bunch of sexes, some having more than 15,000. How this works is very complicated, but essentially, all sexes can breed with any sex but their own. That being said, fungi are very simple organisms, and you all know, Pokemon are complex. Not only that, but Pokemon probably evolved very differently to creatures in the real world, and the Pokemon world probably doesn't run by the same rules as the real world. So any number of small changes could make egg groups scientifically possible. A problem arises however, when you take into account the fact that different species of Pokemon can breed with each other. This is, in fact, something that happens in real life. The difference being that in the real world, if a female polar bear and a male grizzly bear mate, their offspring will be a grolar bear, while in the Pokemon world, if a female Beartic and a male Ursaluna mate, their offspring will be a Cubchoo. Even chalking this up as a difference in the laws of the universe doesn't work, as we start to wonder how Sawk reproduce, as outside of the Friend Safari, they are never found in the same place as Ditto, and since all Sawks are male, the only way for a new Sawk to be created is for it to breed with Ditto. This begs the question, how do Pokemon reproduce in the first place? Well, in the wild, animals usually only reproduce with their own species, even if they are able to reproduce with another. Grolar bears are very uncommon, and are only occurring because of global warming. Granted, polar bears and grizzly bears don't come across each other that often in the first place, but let's look at another hybrid: the wholphin. A wolphin is the hybrid of a female common bottlenose dolphin and a male false killer whale. These two species are found in the same locations, and as such, have been documented in the wild, but it is extremely rare, despite the fact that dolphins are… Well let's just say we have a lot in common with dolphins. My point is, that while different species do reproduce in the wild, they usually prefer to reproduce with their own species. This logic would likely carry over to the world of Pokemon, as they would naturally evolve to look favorable for their own species. That being said, for Pokemon like Sawk, they might have no choice but to mate with different species. However there is another option. Asexual reproduction, or reproduction with only one parent. This essentially creates a clone of the parent. While uncommon, some female animals can reproduce asexually if they fail to find a partner, and some whiptail lizards only reproduce this way. This may be an option for Pokemon, even male ones, as again, the Pokemon universe works by different rules. In any case, this was important to bring up in order to answer the question of whether or not female Nidoran and male Nidoran are the same species. The answer: I think so. Sexual dimorphism is the difference between sexes of the same species, and occurs in both the Pokemon world and the real world. Some might say that they can't be, because they are listed as different species in the pokedex, however Pokemon in the same evolutionary line are considered different species even though that makes no sense. By our definition of species, Pikachu and Raichu are the same species, and the pokedex is either wrong, or has a different definition for species. Therefore, it is not a stretch to say that both Nidorans are the same species. With that out of the way, the female Nidoran probably primarily eats plants, as it prefers not to fight. That isn't to say it can't eat meat, but it probably doesn't hunt very often. Remember, just because something is a herbivore doesn't mean they don't eat meat. Hippos are notorious for forgetting they are supposed to be vegetarians, and squirrels will sometimes eat birds, but neither of them do it frequently enough to be classified as omnivores. As for its habitat, it likely doesn't care. It's just a rabbit.

Nidorina
The female's horn develops slowly. Prefers physical attacks such as clawing and biting. When resting deep in its burrow, its thorns always retract. This is proof that it is relaxed. The female is usually docile. However, if it becomes enraged, it will attack wildly with bites and scratches. When feeding its young, it first chews and tenderizes the food, then spits it out for the offspring. It has a calm and caring nature. Because its horn grows slowly it prefers not to fight. It has a docile nature. If it is threatened with attack, it raises the barbs that are all over its body. When Nidorina are with their friends or family, they keep their barbs tucked away to prevent hurting each other. This Pokémon appears to become nervous if separated from the others. When it is with its friends or family, its barbs are tucked away to prevent injury. It appears to become nervous if separated from the others. The female has a gentle temperament. It emits ultrasonic cries that have the power to befuddle foes. The female's horns develop slowly. Prefers physical attacks such as clawing and biting. When it senses danger, it raises all the barbs on its body. These barbs grow slower than Nidorino's. 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. If the group is threatened, these Pokémon will band together to assault enemies with a chorus of ultrasonic waves.

Nidoqueen
Its hard scales provide strong protection. It uses its hefty bulk to execute powerful moves. Tough scales cover the sturdy body of this Pokémon. It appears that the scales grow in cycles. Its super-hard, needle-like scales stand up when excited. It uses its hefty bulk for performing powerful moves. Its body is covered with needle-like scales. It never shows signs of shrinking from any attack. It uses its scaly rugged body to seal the entrance of its nest and protect its young from predators. The hard scales that cover its strong body serve as excellent protection from any attack. Nidoqueen's body is encased in extremely hard scales. It is adept at sending foes flying with harsh tackles. This Pokémon is at its strongest when it is defending its young. It is adept at sending foes flying with harsh tackles using its tough, scaly body. This Pokémon is at its strongest when it is defending its young. The body is covered by stiff, needle-like scales. If it becomes excited, the needles bristle outwards. Its entire body is armored with hard scales. It will protect the young in its burrow with its life. Nidoqueen is better at defense than offense. With scales like armor, this Pokémon will shield its children from any kind of attack. It pacifies offspring by placing them in the gaps between the spines on its back. The spines will never secrete poison while young are present.

Nidoran♂
Stiffens its ears to sense danger. The larger its horns, the more powerful its secreted venom. Its large ears are always kept upright. If it senses danger, it will attack with a poisonous sting. Its large ears sense danger. It extends its toxic spikes when angry. The size of its body thorns indicates its toxicity. It is small, but its horn is filled with poison. It charges then stabs with the horn to inject poison. It raises its big ears to check its surroundings. It will strike first if it senses any danger. It constantly moves its large ears in many directions in order to detect danger right away. The male Nidoran has developed muscles for moving its ears. Thanks to them, the ears can be freely moved in any direction. Even the slightest sound does not escape this Pokémon's notice. The male Nidoran has developed muscles that freely move its ears in any direction. Even the slightest sound does not escape this Pokémon's notice. Its large ears are flapped like wings when it is listening to distant sounds. It extends toxic barbs when angered. It stiffens its ears to sense danger. The larger its horns, the more powerful its secreted venom. It scans its surroundings by raising its ears out of the grass. Its toxic horn is for protection. Nidoran♂ has developed muscles for moving its ears. Thanks to them, the ears can be freely moved in any direction. Even the slightest sound does not escape this Pokémon's notice. The horn on a male Nidoran's forehead contains a powerful poison. This is a very cautious Pokémon, always straining its large ears. Small but brave, this Pokémon will hold its ground and even risk its life in battle to protect the female it's friendly with.

Nidorino

An aggressive Pokémon that is quick to attack. The horn on its head secretes a powerful venom. Its horns contain venom. If they are stabbed into an enemy, the impact makes the poison leak out. Its horn is harder than diamond. If it punctures an enemy, it pumps powerful venom into the wound. It raises its big ears to check its surroundings. If it senses anything, it attacks immediately. Quick to anger, it stabs enemies with its horn to inject a powerful poison when it becomes agitated. It is easily agitated and uses its horn for offense as soon as it notices an attacker. Nidorino has a horn that is harder than a diamond. If it senses a hostile presence, all the barbs on its back bristle up at once, and it challenges the foe with all its might. Its horn is harder than a diamond. If it senses a hostile presence, all the barbs on its back bristle up at once, and it challenges the foe with all its might. It is easily angered. By swinging its well-developed horn wildly, it can even punch through diamond. It has a violent disposition and stabs foes with its horn, which oozes poison upon impact. With a horn that's harder than diamond, this Pokémon goes around shattering boulders as it searches for a moon stone. It's nervous and quick to act aggressively. The potency of its poison increases along with the level of adrenaline present in its body.

Nidoking

It uses its powerful tail in battle to smash, constrict, then break the prey's bones. Its steel-like hide adds to its powerful tackle. Its horns are so hard, they can pierce a diamond. Has a rock-hard hide that is worn like armor. The long horn on its head is sharp and highly venomous. It swings its big tail around during battle. If its foe flinches, it will charge with its sturdy body. Its tail is thick and powerful. If it binds an enemy, it can snap the victim's spine quite easily. It uses its thick arms, legs and tail to attack forcefully. Melee combat is its specialty. Nidoking's thick tail packs enormously destructive power. With one swing, it can topple a metal transmission tower. Once this Pokémon goes on a rampage, there is no stopping it. A Nidoking's thick tail packs enormously destructive power capable of toppling a metal transmission tower. Once it goes on a rampage, there is no stopping it. It is recognized by its rock-hard hide and its extended horn. Be careful with the horn as it contains venom. One swing of its mighty tail can snap a telephone pole as if it were a matchstick. Its tail is thick and powerful. If it binds an enemy, it can render the victim helpless quite easily. When it goes on a rampage, it's impossible to control. But in the presence of a Nidoqueen it's lived with for a long time, Nidoking calms down. Nidoking prides itself on its strength. It's forceful and spirited in battle, making use of its thick tail and diamond-crushing horn.

So, Nidoking eats meat. This probably means that its pre-evolutions eat meat too, or at least Nidorino. I would be willing to bet that both the male and female lines eat meat, although I doubt the female lines hunt for it very often, Nidoran and Nidorina because they prefer not to fight, and Nidoqueen because they're too busy stuck in the stay at home mom stereotype that society expects them to conform to if they want to be acknowledged by their-wait, what were we talking about again. Oh right. Pokemon.
