Nidoking's origin:
1st came the cosmos.
Before that there was Nidoking.
Okay, so it's actual origin is some kind of poisonous-lunar-powered-rabbit-gorilla-porcupine-dragon-thing who can inexplicably breathe fire, conduct electricity, summon ice storms and reshape the very foundation of the earth's crust with a good earthquake (well most of these abilities are gained by the tampering of mankind, so I'll give them that). Really though, I think the game was really about Nidoking this whole time. I mean, Nidorino appears in the original opening, he was obviously supposed to be the main character instead of Red.
To top all that off, the developers felt so intimidated by his omnipresence that they were forced to thrust in a female version because there was no way that a pokemon so awesome wasn't pimpin' 24/7. I mean, there's gotta be SOME reason the Chinese call him Ní Duō Wáng.
Nidoking! Use Pimpin' Backhand!
It's Super Effective!
