Question: are nidoking and nidoqueen good pokemon go?
Answer: According to Pokebattler, Nidoking is the #5 overall choice against Raikou, with Nidoqueen at #7. That's pretty good, honestly. But, it's in a large part because Raikou is pretty darn hard to counter. He only has one weakness, and Ground types really aren't that plentiful.
