Nidoran (Greta Parker)

Nidoran is the first Pokémon Greta Parker obtained in Pocket Monsters. Before Nidoran was given to her, she used to live in Professor Oak's laboratory.

Kanto Journey - The Beginning
Nidoran was given to Greta by Professor Oak when the summer camp officially began in. Although Greta was nervous while she met Nidoran for the first time, Greta tried hard to hide her tension for meeting a Pokémon, and instead she appeared to be quite calm and friendly. Despite of that, Nidoran still acted shy and strange around her.

In while Greta and Nidoran were tasked to solve a riddle and find a particular item, Nidoran worked in a sync with her partner. Despite she was attacked by a Diglett in the playground, Nidoran had her first Pokémon Battle with Greta and worked as a team to defeat the Diglett to get their item. That incident improved the relationship between her and Nidoran, and helped each other trust even more.

Nidoran had her second Pokémon Battle in when she and Greta were in Pallet Jungle to catch a Pokémon as they were tasked. Her first encounter was a wild Spearow. Despite the Pokédex claimed that they were compelling Pokémon, Nidoran managed to defeat the Pokémon by using Double Kick and Scratch effectively. Her subsequent opponent was a that Greta had always been interested in. Despite Nidoran was slowed down by Caterpie's String Shot and attacked by her Tackle, Nidoran's Ability, Poison Point was activated during the battle and the foe was poisoned. Eventually Greta succeeded to catch the Pokémon.

Nidoran participated in Professor Oak's Summer Camp Competition in in. She battled for Greta in the elimination rounds first, against a random student's Spearow. As it was stated, Nidoran managed to defeat him very easily as he was weak to Fighting Type moves and Nidoran knew to use Double Kick. Once again, she performed for Greta in the semi final round against and her. Although Madison belittled Nidoran by stating that "Clefable could not any be worse than Nidoran", Nidoran managed to defeat Clefairy by using her Scratch, Growl and Double Kick. After she defeated her foe, Greta substituted her with Caterpie.

Nidoran participated in Greta's grand finale Pokémon battle of Professor Oak's Summer Camp Competition in. Nidoran was the first Pokémon to be called out by Greta's side, and her opponent was. However, since Nidoran was super effected by Cubone's Ground-Type moves, Greta substituted her with instead. Later on, Nidoran was called out once again after defeated Caterpie. Since Spearow kept a distance from the surface, it was impossible for Nidoran to reach to him and attack. Instead, she used Growl on him to decrease his attack power. However, it did not help, and Greta came up with the idea of climbing on a tree and reaching Spearow from there. Nidoran followed the order and used a tree branch to catch Spearow in the air. With her Double Kick, she damaged the Pokémon seriously. Afterwards, Spearow's Take Down attack almost fainted Nidoran. She was hurt so badly that Greta was about to withdraw from the battle, until they realised that Spearow was inflicted by his own move as well, which caused him to faint before Nidoran. Therefore, she carried her trainer to the victory in the end.
