who is better,Rhydon or Nidoking?

[▼■DoomWing■▼]

I like Nidoking now cuz it saved me big times in the BF.And i like it cuz it can have almost the same movepool as rhydon but just not some like RS or RB

Nidoking. Great movepool and doesn't suffer any x4 weaknesses like Rhydon does. Rhydon is still a great poke mind you, but Nidoking is a little better IMO.

 

[Eszett]

I would choose Nidoking because large movepools turn me on, but Rhydon is cool in his own right.

 

[core unit]

Ryhdon is cool cos it has higher attack than Nidoking, but Nidoking has a wider selection of moves. I still go with Ryhdon.

 

[Kiyohime]

Rhydorn and Nidoking both pretty much represent males with the whole WUT LOL HORN DRILL thing they have *hoping the little kids don't get what she's implying* XD I generally prefer Nidoking because he gets double stab and can be unpredictable to boot.

I perfer Nidoking, Large move pool, good stats, and its cool looking.

So does Rhydon. Why halo thar Earthquake and Rock Slide/Blast.
But I do agree, A Nidoking's moveset is more unpredicatable b/c of its movepool.

 

[Kiyohime]

Dohhh, forgot Rhydon was a double type. *palms face* Unless Nidoking also has an x4 weakness, he's still a tad better. ;/

 

[Dark Venusaur]

I like them all equally but Nioking comes in handy in certain cases.;034;

Rhydon. There's a reason it's higher on the Tier List. And that's because it has 130 Attack, 120 Defense, and 105 HP. Sure, its other Stats are in the 40s, but would Rhydon survive a Grass or Water Attack even with decent Sp. Defense? And it most certainly doesn't need Sp. Atk or Speed. Not to mention its Physical movepool kills pretty much everything(except Skarm, but it still puts an enormous dent in it).

Rhydon is better but I like nidoking more.

 

[Carpetted!]

Nidoking; it has a larger movepool and is resistant to toxic/thunder wave.

 

[Evanji Axu]

I like Nidoking. His color makes me giggle.


...Yes that was a lame reason >.> <.<

 

[Orion-Sama]

Rhydon is stronger in the Physical area. MUCH stronger. Still, Nidoking is somewhat balanced... =/

I like both equally. Still, I'd go with Rhydon. It's got quite impressive Stats, and looks very cool to boot. The Movepool is impressive too, even if a bit of it is 100% useless. Man... I should train one someday. Always wanted to do it since GSC...

Rhydon's main problem are grass & water attacks. >-<

Yhalothar Switch and/or Substitute how be you?
If Rhydon's got a Sub up, Focus Punch/Megahorn/Rock Slide/Earthquake/any of the other powerful Physical moves Rhydon gets will probably KO the foe, or come darn close to it. Rhydon is awesome.

And aren't YOU forgetting that Nidoking is weak to Psychic, Ground, Water, and Ice? Four very common Attacking Types, and pretty much every Pokémon you find has one of those four elements in its arsenal. Which is why Nidoking is UU.

Rhydon, its more popular than nidoking.

 

[Encyclopika]

I prefer Rhydon...though I haven't used either in quite a long time. :/

 

[Horn Drill]

I haven't used Nidoking in a while, and Rhydon is one of my best Battle Frontier Pokemon. =/ Nidoking is easier to raise, that's for sure. >__< It took me forever to friggin' EV train that Rhyhorn. I'd have to go with Nidoking since Poison types are cool.

No one should use Horn Drill. Ever. >_<
