(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]] for these details.)
 
==Biology==
Rhyhorn is a {{wp|rhinoceros}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a body covered in gray, rocky plates. Its underside and rear are smooth, and it has four short legs with two claws on each foot. It has a triangular head with narrow, red eyes, two fangs protruding from its upper jaw, small, triangular openings on the upper sides, and a short horn on the tip of its snout. A female will have a shorter horn than a male. A spiked ridge runs along its back. In addition to its rocky hide, its bones are a thousand times harder than human bones.
 
Rhyhorn's brain is very small, giving it a one-track mind. When it runs, it forgets why it started and continues until it falls asleep. However, it may recall the reason for demolishing something. Due to its short legs, it is inept at turning and can only run in straight lines. It does not care if obstacles get in the way, merely smashing through them or sending them flying, although it may feel pain the day after a collision. This personality is how Rhyorn expands its territory. Rhyhorn is powerful enough to shatter skyscrapers or mountains instantly after charging forward with head tackles. Rhyhorn lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrain}}. A Rhyorn's territory expands to six miles.
 
===Evolution===
Rhyhorn evolves into {{p|Rhydon}}, which evolves into {{p|Rhyperior}}.
 
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]].)

===NPC appearances===
* {{g|X and Y}}: In X and Y, the {{player}}'s [[mother]], {{kal|Grace}}, is a retired Rhyhorn racer. Her Rhyhorn partner lounges outside her house. The player can ride it, but cannot take it outside the small front lawn. The player can ride another Rhyhorn on {{rt|9|Kalos}}, which is the only way to cross the jagged, rocky terrain to [[Glittering Cave]].

==Trivia==
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Rhyhorn and {{p|Charizard}} had an identical [[cry]].
* In several games from [[Generation I]] onwards, the [[Pokédex]] states that Rhyhorn has powerful tackles. However, Rhyhorn was unable to learn {{m|Tackle}} until [[Generation VIII]].
** This was first said in Rhyhorn's Pokédex entry from Japanese {{game|Red and Green|s}}, although this entry was left untranslated until it was reused in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|Pokémon FireRed]]. Rhyhorn's Japanese Pokédex entries correctly use Tackle's Japanese name 「たいあたり」, or its equivalent 「体当た」 in kanji mode.
* In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], Rhyhorn and {{p|Rhydon}} cannot learn {{m|Thunderbolt}}, even though they were able to in all other games in which Thunderbolt could be learned outside of leveling up.
 
===Origin===
Rhyhorn's design appears to be inspired by an {{wp|Indian rhinoceros}}, which has similar plated armor; and an ''{{wp|Uintatherium}}'', from whom it may have taken its flat head and horn. Its design also has elements of {{wp|Ceratopsidae|ceratopsids}}.
 
====Name origin====
Rhyhorn may be a combination of ''{{wp|rhinoceros}}'', ''{{wp|rhyolite}}'' (a type of rock, referring to its [[Rock (type)|Rock]] type), and ''horn''.
 
Sihorn is a combination of 犀 ''sai'' (rhinoceros) and ''horn''.
