>>49735459>Like the Nido lines to me seem more Poison because they have barbs and a stinger/horn, rather than it being more of a Drill to me.Well yeah, they do start out as mono-Poison-types, so that definitely tracks.
I did forget that Nidoking in particular is an explicit reference to the kaiju Baragon, which is known for its digging ability. The added Ground-typing may therefore just be an extended reference to something that Game Freak likes.
