      The following chart shows Rhyhorn's DPS and TDO for every fast and charge attack combination. This chart is useful for comparing the relative strength of Rhyhorn's movesets. You can change the weather and the opposing Pokémon to see how it affects the rankings.

      Legacy Elite Fast and Charge Attacks can only be obtained during special events, or by using an Elite Fast TM or an Elite Charge TM. Legacy moves are marked with an asterisk (*). The table above provides information on different moves Rhyhorn has in Pokémon GO, along with their corresponding DPS (Damage per Second) and TDO (Total Damage Output).

      PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

      Recommended moves

      As the first of a three-stage evolution line, Rhyhorn doesn't have the stats necessary for Raids. Its bulk is nothing to write home about, and with a plethora of weaknesses, Gym defense is not in its agenda. 😅

      PvP AnalysisPvP Analysis

      Recommended moves

      🔵 Great League

      Making a Ground/Rock type work in PvP is a major challenge, given its two double-weaknesses as well as weakness to other types. Not to mention, the moveset isn't spectacular as well, making Rhyhorn an easily avoidable Pokémon for this format.

      A max CP of only 1867 makes Rhyhorn unviable for any other PvP League.
