Rhyhorn primarily inhabits caves and mountainous regions, often found charging headfirst through obstacles due to its immense strength and hard body. Its diet consists mainly of rocks and minerals, which further hardens its already tough exterior. Rhyhorn evolves into Rhydon, and later into Rhyperior with the use of a Protector item. In the games, Rhyhorn is often encountered in early routes and has been a staple in many trainers' teams due to its robust defenses and powerful attacks. Its role in the anime frequently portrays it as a strong, if sometimes clumsy, Pokémon used for battling or even for racing, as seen in the Rhyhorn Race. Culturally, Rhyhorn represents resilience and raw power, often associated with construction and demolition due to its ability to smash through rock. Its design, reminiscent of a rhinoceros, gives it a distinct and memorable appearance among the original 151 Pokémon, solidifying its place as a recognizable and beloved creature in the Pokémon universe.
