Nidorino 57/132 · Secret Wonders

Secret Wonders is a set in the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released on November 1, 2007. The printed size is 132, and the checklist is the same length. Nidorino is 57/132, in position 57 of 132 on this checklist. Before it is 56 Muk, and after it is 58 Pidgeotto. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Nidorino is a Stage 1 Psychic Pokémon with 80 HP. The card lists level 28. In the Pokédex this is Nidorino (#033), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Nidoran ♂. In this catalog that name is Nidoran♂ (#032). The card lists Nidoking, Nidoking (#034) under evolves to.

Naoyo Kimura illustrated this card. The same name is on 256 other cards in the catalog.

Nidorino (#033) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 15 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Nidorino 37/102 in Base (1999). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Naoyo Kimura illustrated this one. 12 other cards of Nidorino list a different HP.

The attack Spirited Drill lists 20 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. During your next turn, each of Nidorino's attacks does 20 more damage to the Defending Pokémon (before applying Weakness and Resistance). Poison Horn is another attack lists 40 damage. The cost is Psychic, Colorless, Colorless. The Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned. Weakness is Psychic +20. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It has a violent disposition and stabs foes with its horn, which oozes poison upon impact."

I keep a set binder for Secret Wonders, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Secret Wonders set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Nidorino can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
