Collector Insights

Rhyperior is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 140 HP, featuring a retreat cost of four Colorless energy. It possesses the Earth Fissure Poké-Power, allowing the player to discard the top three cards from their opponent’s deck once during their turn when evolving a Pokémon. The card’s primary attack, Rock Wrecker, costs three Energy (two Fighting and one Colorless) and deals 80 damage, bypassing Weakness or Resistance effects but preventing Rhyperior from attacking in the following turn. The Pokémon resists Lightning-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Water-type attacks with a 30 damage boost. It belongs to the Diamond & Pearl series, released in May 2007, and is depicted as a rare holographic card. The flavor text describes Rhyperior as using rocks stored in its palms to launch attacks, with Geodude occasionally being targeted. Artist Nakaoka designed the card’s illustration, which aligns with its thematic connection to geological forces.

It puts rocks in holes in its palms and uses its muscles to shoot them. Geodude are shot at rare times.
