Rhyhorn and its evolutions, Rhydon and Rhyperior, were some of the more iconic previous-generation Pocket Monsters to have been added to Pokemon Scarlet and Violet with The Indigo Disk. While getting your hands on a Rhyhorn and Rhydon should not pose much trouble, obtaining a Rhyperior is challenging.

You will need a special item to evolve your Rhydon into a Rhyperior. However, the efforts are worth the results because Rhyperior is one of the best late-game Pokemon in The Indigo Disk. The Ground/Rock-type creature hits like a truck and can make some of the encounters in the later stages of the game significantly easier.

Today’s Pokemon Scarlet and Violet guide, therefore, goes over how you can get your hands on a Rhyhorn, Rhydon, and a Rhyperior in The Indigo Disk.

To catch a Rhyhorn in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's The Indigo Disk, you must head southeast to the Savanna Biome of the Terrarium. The creature can be commonly found in the fields, so just engage it in combat and capture it.

Additionally, as the Pocket Monster has a medium catch rate, you will not have to waste too many Pokeballs to be able to add it to your roster.

A Rhydon can be found in the same place and biome that you have found a Rhyhorn. However, its spawn rate is much lower, and it is also a bit more tricky to catch.

While you encounter Rhydon out in the wild, the best way of obtaining one is to evolve your Rhyhorn.

You will not be able to find a Rhyperior in the wild. The final evolution form can only be obtained by evolving your Rhydon. However, you will need a special item to evolve it in The Indigo Disk.

How to evolve Rhydon into Rhyperior in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk

To evolve Rhydon into Rhyperior in The Indigo Disk, you first need to get your hands on a Protector item. You can either find this in the wild (in the Savanna Biome) or purchase it from the Blueberry Academy School Store for 250 Blueberry Points (BP).

Once you have the item, let your Rhydon hold it and then trade the Pokemon out with another player. This will trigger the evolution, and your Rhydon will turn into a Rhyperior. Now, exchange it back to add the final evolution of the Rhyhorn to your line-up.
