What's the difference between Nidoking and Nidoqueen?

Question

I know they're male and female, and different colors, but other than that...

Answer 1

There is not much difference between them. One is male, one is female. Nidoking has slightly better attack and speed, while Nidoqueen has slightly better defense. And they look a bit different.

The reason they are separate species in the pokedex is because the original Red/Blue/Yellow games did not have genders so they had separate evolutionary lines for the males and females.

I agree. Same types, just different genders, colors, and EVs.
