Nu-Nidoking is shit design with terrible colors and a pitiful array of spikes. Original is where it's at.

Kanto Privilege. There is no way it would learn most of the moves it does if it weren’t from Gen 1.

I dunno, it's not only a Poison type, who tend to get larger movepools, but a kaiju mon, who also get large movepools.

Not really a problem.
Can totally kick larger foes' assses.
Size doesn't matter for the King and Queen of the Kaijumons.(No it's not Tyranitar the Single)

Don't remember Tyranitar being a flying mustashed tiger.
Also means nothing.
Nidoking isn't my favorite Pokémon or Kaijumon, it just deserve it's title as king because it has found his Queen.
You're jealous, isn't it?

Tyranitar:
4x weak to fighting
2x weak to ground, grass, water, bug, steel and fucking fairy

Nidoking
4x weak to nothing
2x weak to ground water psychic ice

On paper Nido king is better because it's not weak to 6 of the 8 types.

Enough fighting, T-Tar and Nidoking are kaijumon buddies. They synergize perfectly well as T-Tar covers Nido's weaknesses and Nido covers T-Tar's. I use both on my competitive team and they are unstoppable.

yes unless chomp has band or setup his swords dance already, or if tar didn't invest defense then it's a range
but garchomp tanks tyranitar in return unless it's an ice punch from tyranitar. but usually garchomp is going to win that mu

Ok then. Does Choice Band destroy also Solid Rock Rhyperior/Eviolite Rhydon? They have better Physical Bulk than Ttar (Not Special Obviously)(They'll take the same from a super-effective move like Chomp's Earthquake)
