Using it in a run

Rhydon spreads 485 base stat points. Its strongest stat is Attack (130) and its weakest is Speed (40), so the role that fits depends on how the rest of the run covers that gap.

Under the game's real multipliers it takes increased damage from Grass, Water and Fighting. It resists Fire, Flying and Normal in return. Use that to decide when to circle and when to leave, not to pick a favourite.

Its level-up learnset lists 15 moves; the hardest-hitting is Megahorn at 120 power, available at level 61. That is the point where its damage actually changes.
