Non canon, but rather in character. She's competent with computers, so her being into PC games isn't a far stretch. For the record, I don't play first person shooters.
This is perfectly in line with a Poke Tales short. I'm also quite proud of Nidorina's matronly anime look. She looks huggably adorable, if not a little too wide canonically.
It's Mysterious. There's something different about Nidorino. He isn't aggressive or super powerful, and he looks different too. Back in his high school/college years, the other (jealous) Nidorino would haze him often. He was, however, the object of several girls affections, even though Nidorino's a nervous guy and didn't like the attention.
What are the odds that a cute Nidorino and Nidorina couple could have ever met in the future?
It's interesting to me to think that this picture would eventually inspire an animated version seven years later, but here it is, the original catalyst!
I know this is Sinatra's song, but I had the Billie Holiday version in mind. Why do I always think of Nidorina whenever I think of anything from an older era? Must be all those classic movies I watch. You know, the black and white movies were "men were men and women were women". Then again, she's the only Nido actress I have, not that that means a whole lot. Well, like any old song, this is one of my favorites. Well, anything sung by a crooner or jazz singer is pretty good, in my opinion. But, I also like Christmas music too. It's my favorite time of the year for the warm fuzzies.
