Ruby
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.
Crystal
It uses its thick arms, legs and tail to attack forcefully. Melee combat is its specialty.
Silver
Its tail is thick and powerful. If it binds an enemy, it can snap the victim's spine quite easily.
Gold
It swings its big tail around during battle. If its foe flinches, it will charge with its sturdy body.
