About this card
F FightingHP 120Stage 2 · evolves from Nidorino
As long as Nidoking is in play, your attacks by Nidoran ♀, Nidorina, Nidoqueen, Nidoran ♂, and Nidorino do 10 more damage to the Defending Pokemon.
If the Defending Pokémon already has any damage counters on it, the Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned.
Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 60 damage to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Nidoking can't use Bound Crush during your next turn.
