Using it in a run

Nidorino spreads 365 base stat points. Its strongest stat is Attack (72) and its weakest is Special Attack (55), so the role that fits depends on how the rest of the run covers that gap.

Under the game's real multipliers it takes increased damage from Ground and Psychic. It resists Bug, Fairy and Fighting in return. Use that to decide when to circle and when to leave, not to pick a favourite.

Its level-up learnset lists 13 moves; the hardest-hitting is Earth Power at 90 power, available at level 71. That is the point where its damage actually changes.
