Rhydon (サイドン Sidon) is a Ground/Rock-type Pokémon. It is the evolved form of Rhyhorn starting evolving at level 42, and can evolve into Rhyperior when Rhydon is traded when it is holding the Protector item.
Appearance
It is a rock hard Pokémon that developed a long tail and learned to stand bipedally. It is a rhino-like creature that can crush rocks. It has a long drill that can drill through rocks.
Special Abilities
Rhydon can have the ability Rock Head or the ability Lightningrod. Rock Head prevents Rhydon from sustaining recoil damage. Lightningrod directs Electric-type attacks to Rhydon. This Pokémon is disadvantaged when attacking Grass, Fighting, or other Ground-type Pokémon. This Pokémon's brain developed after it stood up on its hind legs. Its drill horn bores tunnels through solid rock. Its hide is so thick and protective that Rhydon can thrive in very hot places.
