:Keep in mind that Pokemon came from Japan, and for the most part, the names mean nothing more than what is interpreted in their country. Since I tend to use Japanese sources for fact checking, all I've ever seen regarding "nido" is a romanization of "needle" and nothing more.--[[User:Nidorino|Nidorino]] 12:05, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

:Hi, I agree that nido comes from the Japanese meaning 'two times' or something to that effect, but I disagree with the ran meaning orchid, I mean it does literally mean orchid but I think that this is unlikely to be where the ran in Nidoran came from. I think it's just a corruption of the English "run" or "rhino", especially as it's written in katakana. More on this here, thanks for listening! http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Talk:Nidoran%E2%99%82_(Pok%C3%A9mon) [[User:NekoEmmi|NekoEmmi]] ([[User talk:NekoEmmi|talk]]) 10:13, 23 April 2013 (UTC)


The whole thing about the Nido's is odd. The problem with Nidoran♀ is that it is in the No Eggs group. Anyone know why? [[User:Pokemon26|Pokemon26 31 July 2010 22:54 (UTC)
