#99 Rhyperior - Sword & Shield (swsh1)

Rhyperior is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 190 HP, part of the Sword & Shield series released on February 7, 2020. The card features artwork by Satoshi Shirai and is classified as a Rare Holo. Its flavor text describes a strategy of using a carapace to deflect attacks and then driving a drill into the opponent. The Pokémon has no Resistance, making it vulnerable to Grass-type attacks with double damage. It requires four Colorless Energy to retreat, reflecting its moderate cost to deploy. Rhyperior’s attacks include Rock Tumble, which costs Fighting and two Colorless Energy to deal 90 damage without being affected by Resistance. The second attack, Bedrock Shake, demands two Fighting, two Colorless Energy, and deals 120 damage while also inflicting 60 damage to each Benched Pokémon with damage counters. This dual-attack strategy emphasizes its role in both direct combat and disrupting opponents’ positions.
