Contest Nidoking VS Nidoqueen

[Karpi]

Honestly, when I see a Nidoking I just laugh. But Nidoqueen I know is pretty good. That goes for competitive battling as well as in game. Those trainers with the level 21 and 23 Nidokings are just laughable, and they kind of ruin Nidoking's image. So Nidoqueen, obviously.

King just has superior stats

I pick Nidoking. I prefer the entire Nidoran(M) line over Nidoran(F), mainly because I prefer pink and purple to blue. I also don't really like shiny Nidoqueen at all.

In general I do like them all with their normal coloring though.

 

[Dr. Buni]

Nidoking has a better color scheme (purple ftw), but Nidoqueen has a better and less overdesigned appearance.

 

[Berrenta]

I have bred a Nidoking and he has fared well. However, I also like Nidoqueen as well and would like to train one, so it's hard for me to choose one or the other.

Their appearance is also tough to choose one over the other, Nidoking looks fierce and rugged, while Nidoqueen appears tough and mellow.

 

[Camille]

Nidoking, because he can use both physical and special moves well and has a better shiny. Shiny Nidoqueen is just awful.

 

[Revenge of the Boyega]

Nidoking because I'm a sexist.

...
I've known him for longer, I like his colours and Nidorino is one of my favourite Pokemon of all time.

 

[Blazikenn]

Nidoking, no contest. It's just the better Pokémon by a long shot.

 

[Phosphene]

I really like both, but I prefer Nidoqueen over Nidoking as the latter's 3D model ruined him for me somewhat.

 

[prog rocker]

Nidoqueen. I always go for the blue ones.

 

[Felly]

Nidoking on this one. It's not something I really use a lot, but on the rare occasion I find myself doing any sort of competitive battling, I find myself gravitating towards it more often than not. Sheer Force + Life Orb is a pretty solid combo, haha.

this is.... pretty tough for me. i feel like as part of a competitive team i'm likelier to use nidoking more, but i like nidoqueen's design more. :c so i like them both about the same, i suppose.
