Rhydon | Pokémon guide

The Drill Pokémon, Rhydon, is the first evolution of Rhyhorn. You can further evolve it into Rhyperior, a second evolution introduced in Gen IV. Rhydon has two horns on its head, one of which is larger at the front. There's a slight size difference between males and females, with males having a bit of a bigger horn.
