Abilities
As long as Nidoking is in play, your attacks by Nidoran ♀, Nidorina, Nidoqueen, Nidoran ♂, and Nidorino do 10 more damage to the Defending Pokemon.
Attacks
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.

What these prices mean

Low is the cheapest currently available listing, so it can be much lower than recent sales.
