What it does
This attack's damage isn't affected by Resistance.
This attack also does 60 damage to each Benched Pokémon that has any damage counters on it (both yours and your opponent's). (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)
It relies on its carapace to deflect incoming attacks and throw its enemy off balance. As soon as that happens, it drives its drill into the foe.

Where it came from
The Rhyperior card from the Sword & Shield base set was released in early 2020 as part of the initial expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game's eighth generation. Representing the evolved form of Rhydon, this card features the Fighting-type Rhyperior, which gained prominence in competitive play during the era for its ability to utilize heavy-hitting attacks. The set marked a significant shift in card design, introducing the bold aesthetic standards of the Sword & Shield block, which moved away from the complex mechanics of the previous generation to emphasize cleaner layouts and distinct holographic patterns.
The artwork for this specific card was commissioned from illustrator Kouki Saitou, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon franchise known for his dynamic and muscular renderings of creature designs. Saitou focused on capturing Rhyperior's massive, rocky exterior and indomitable presence, utilizing the Holo Rare treatment to emphasize the rugged textures of the Pokémon's hide. Upon release, the card was widely received by collectors and players alike as a quintessential example of the modern design philosophy, where the focus returned to high-quality character portraiture that highlights the unique scale and temperament of the featured Pokémon.
