I recently bred a Rhyhorn that came out with this moveset.

Rock Slide
Earthquake
Crunch
Stomp

I eventually want to add Horn Drill, but my question is about Mega Horn. Do I get rid of rock slide, or crunch to put in Mega Horn, or do I not bother with Mega Horn at all?

Horn Drill sucks. Don't use OHKO moves.

Why would you use Crunch? It's a special attack and Rhydon's special attack is terrible.

Use the following:

Rhydon @Leftovers
Adamant Nature
-Rock Blast/Rock Slide
-Megahorn
-Earthquake
-Swords Dance

OHKO moves are way too inaccurte to be worth it. Don't ditch Rock Slide, it's a good move.

If anything ditch Crunch.

Yeah, what Aragornbird said, although Substitute is an alternative over Megahorn, I believe.

Rhydon @ Leftovers
~Swords Dance

Double-Edge works too if you can get Rock Head.

Crunch isn't the only thing wrong with this set...
Double Edge / Body Slam > Stomp because Rhydon's speed is a horrible base 40. Trying to make something flinch by using Stomp is utterly useless... A paralyzing Body Slam could be worthwhile.

While Rock Slide has the same function as Stomp, STAB makes it useful, and heck powerful. All the more reason why Stomp is useless...
