Rhyperior first appeared as a {{pkmn2|wild}} Rhydon in ''[[PS116|Rock, Paper...Scizor]]''. He, along with an {{p|Alakazam}}, {{p|Arcanine}}, and {{p|Exeggutor}}, rampaged near [[Viridian City]] after being attracted by the sound of the [[Pokémon Music Channel|Pokémon March]] being played by a [[Pokémon Association]] van's radio. {{adv|Blue}} used his {{TP|Blue|Scizor}} to defeat the rampaging Pokémon, which he then caught. The Pokémon Association were impressed so much that they decided to appoint him as the new [[Gym Leader]] of the [[Viridian Gym]].

In ''[[PS161|Entranced by Entei]]'', during the Gym Leader exhibition match at the [[Indigo Plateau]], Blue faced his former mentor, [[Chuck]]. During this battle, Blue decided to only use Rhydon. Rhydon first went up against Chuck's {{p|Machamp}}, which let Rhydon hit first so that it could use {{m|Vital Throw}}, which always makes the user go last. Next, Chuck switched Machamp with his {{p|Hitmonlee}}, which used {{m|Mind Reader}} to dodge Rhydon's attacks. Rhydon managed to grab Hitmonlee's stretchy legs and attacked with {{m|Stomp}}, only to be countered with {{m|Reversal}}. Chuck then switched Hitmonlee for {{p|Hitmontop}}, which greatly damaged Rhydon with his ability to attack multiple times while spinning. Eventually, Chuck had Hitmontop attack from the air by using his horn as a drill. Rhydon countered with his own {{m|Horn Drill}} and caused Hitmontop to slow down by reversing the rotation of his drill, leading to Hitmontop's defeat and Blue's victory. After the battle, Blue revealed he trained Rhydon to a high level with a book titled ''Secrets of the Earth'', which was written by {{adv|Giovanni|the previous Viridian Gym Leader}}, who had been a {{type|Ground}} specialist.

In ''[[PS175|The Last Battle IX]]'', Blue had Rhydon {{m|dig}} a tunnel to [[Ilex Forest]] so that he and {{adv|Red}} could help their allies confront the [[Masked Man]]. During the trip Rhydon had a quick battle against [[Koga]] and his {{p|Tentacruel}}, but it was stopped when Koga revealed he wasn't there to fight.
