RhyhornXy Trainer Kit Latios #23 Pokémon Card

Rhyhorn, the Spikes Pokémon, is a Ground/Rock-type initially introduced in Generation I. It is known for its thick, armor-like hide and a single horn on its snout. Rhyhorn primarily inhabits rocky mountainous regions and caves, where its sturdy build allows it to navigate rugged terrain with ease. Its diet consists mainly of rocks and minerals, which it grinds down with its powerful jaws. Rhyhorn is characterized by its headstrong and somewhat dim-witted nature; once it starts charging, it struggles to stop or change direction, often plowing through anything in its path. It evolves into Rhydon, and later into Rhyperior with the use of a Protector item. In the games, Rhyhorn is a common early-game Pokémon in its native regions, often used by trainers who favor raw power and defense. In the anime, it has been featured in various episodes, sometimes ridden by characters due to its robust build. Its design is inspired by rhinoceroses and various prehistoric armored mammals, giving it a primal and powerful aesthetic that resonates with fans.
