Rhydon is a large, gray | Rhydon is a large, gray, bipedal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with features similar to both dinosaurs and rhinoceroses. It has narrow, red eyes and two fangs in its upper jaw. On the tip of Rhydon's snout is a cream-colored horn, which is smaller on a female than on a male. There are several other spikes and projections on its head: on top is a spike that curves forward, two triangular points resembling ears on the sides, a wide, wavy crest under each ear, and spiky ridges on each cheek. It has a cream-colored abdomen divided into strips by thin divots. A rocky plate on its chest slightly overlaps its abdomen. There is a row of spikes down its back and they have a long tail with thin, black stripes. | ||
Rhydon is a physically powerful Pokémon. It is recorded as being able to topple buildings with a sweeping blow of its tail, and its horn can bore through solid rock and shatter diamonds. Rhydon sharpens their horns by clashing them together. Its armor-like hide protects it from heat and physical blows. It is stated to be capable of passing unscathed through streams of magma (3,600 degrees Fahrenheit) and withstanding a direct blow from a cannonball without being harmed. However, because of this tough hide, it is insensitive. Despite its well-developed brain, it can be forgetful. Rhydon lives in [[List of Pokémon by habitat#Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrain]] like in caves or on top of mountains. Due to its [[evolution]] allowing Rhydon to walk on two legs, it can expand its territory to more than a Rhyhorn's original habitat limit. | |||

Rhydon (Japanese: サイドン Sidon) is a dual-type Ground/Rock Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
It evolves from Rhyhorn starting at level 42 and evolves into Rhyperior when traded while holding a Protector.
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to Game data→Evolution data for these details.)
Biology
Rhydon is a large, gray, bipedal Pokémon with features similar to both dinosaurs and rhinoceroses. It has narrow, red eyes and two fangs in its upper jaw. On the tip of Rhydon's snout is a cream-colored horn, which is smaller on a female than on a male. There are several other spikes and projections on its head: on top is a spike that curves forward, two triangular points resembling ears on the sides, a wide, wavy crest under each ear, and spiky ridges on each cheek. It has a cream-colored abdomen divided into strips by thin divots. A rocky plate on its chest slightly overlaps its abdomen. There is a row of spikes down its back and they have a long tail with thin, black stripes.
Rhydon is a physically powerful Pokémon. It is recorded as being able to topple buildings with a sweeping blow of its tail, and its horn can bore through solid rock and shatter diamonds. Rhydon sharpens their horns by clashing them together. Its armor-like hide protects it from heat and physical blows. It is stated to be capable of passing unscathed through streams of magma (3,600 degrees Fahrenheit) and withstanding a direct blow from a cannonball without being harmed. However, because of this tough hide, it is insensitive. Despite its well-developed brain, it can be forgetful. Rhydon lives in rough terrain like in caves or on top of mountains. Due to its evolution allowing Rhydon to walk on two legs, it can expand its territory to more than a Rhyhorn's original habitat limit.
Evolution
Rhydon evolves from Rhyhorn and evolves into Rhyperior.

Major appearances
In Riddle Me This, Blaine used a Rhydon during his Gym battle against Ash. It briefly battled Charizard, who then refused to battle.

Trivia
- According to interviews with Ken Sugimori, Rhydon was one of the first Pokémon ever created;[1][2] this is evidenced by early sketches of the Capsule Monsters game concept featuring Rhydon, Lapras, and others. Moreover, Rhydon's index number is 001 in Generation I.
- Since Rhydon's index number is 001 in Generation I, a glitch Pokémon with an index number of 000 or that is greater than 152 will revert to Rhydon when its Pokédex entry is viewed.
- Ash's Pikachu fought Blaine's Rhydon in Pokémon the Series and defeated it by aiming an electric attack at its horn, despite it being a Ground-type immune to Electric attacks. This particular scene spawned a popular, albeit misquoted, internet meme where "aim for the horn!" is commonly attributed to this episode. Rhydon's horn serving as a lightning rod for electric attacks would also become an ability in Generation III.
- Rhydon and its evolved form share their category name with Nidoqueen and Nidoking. They are all known as the Drill Pokémon. Additionally, all four are partly Ground-types.
- In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Rhyhorn and Rhydon cannot learn Thunderbolt, even though they were able to in all other games in which Thunderbolt could be learned outside of leveling up.
Origin
Rhydon was created with a Kaiju motif.[1][2] Its design appears to draw inspiration from a rhinoceros and some aspects of various dinosaurs, such as ceratopsids. Its horn may be based on drills.
Name origin
Rhydon may be a combination of rhinoceros, rhyolite (a type of rock, referring to its Rock type), and don (Spanish for lord) or -don (common suffix in dinosaur names derived from the Ancient Greek word for tooth).
Sidon may be a combination of 犀 sai (rhinoceros) and don.
