    [PokeCommunity.com] 3/31 - COTD - Rhydon (EX: Emerald)


    Rate & Review.

    Thanks to Water Pokemon Master from www.pokebeach.com for the scan.
     
    First, talking about stetics (sp?), this card looks very empty...
    Second, the art is great.
    Third, I really don't know why is it rare...

    So, I still remember the times when evolved Pokémon had Poké-Bodies and Poké-Powers, where the effect text was big and the attacks were cool. And they weren't rare...

    Rhydon, Stage 1 Pokémon, evolving from Rhyhorn. Only 90 HP! I always thought Rhyhorn had 50-60 HP, and Rhydons 100 HP or more!
    There are 2 Rhyhorn to choose from, HL's and EM's, and both have 60 HP...

    Attacks on Rhydon: Horn Attack, low cost, below average damage for a full evolution, no effects; Rock Tumble, high cost, nice damage, useful against flying Pokémon.

    Not a bad card, but I wouldn't want it on a deck...
     
    I agree with QFred to a degree. It's odd this card has no frills but that doesn't hinder the fact this card can do nice good cheap damage all with a reasonable retreat cost.

    All the prior Rhydons have had three. So this is a definite surprise.

    Definitely something you want for a fast enough hitter. 30 isn't anything to sneeze while you charge for the Rock Tumble.

    8/10 myself.
     
    Seems Alright

    Horn attack is the common attack for rhyhon
    60 without resistance is defentily good
    in case of resistance

    8/10
     
    Works in a lot of decks, but HP is subpar and Rock Tumble's cost is still a bit too steep for my tastes...

    6/10
