Pokémon Gold: "When feeding its young, it first chews and tender izes the food, then spits it out for the offspring."
Pokémon Silver: "It has a calm and caring nature. Because its horn grows slowly, it prefers not to fight."
Pokémon Crystal: "It has a docile nature. If it is threatened with attack, it raises the barbs that are all over its body."
Pokémon Ruby: "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."
