Why do people say the meta is lacking physical stuff that can handle the likes of Mega Pinsir and Charizard X, when this fucker with 115/130 defense + Soild Rock to shrug off their unSTAB EQs/CCs, 140 god damn attack, and has STAB on EdgeQuake?

It can beat Zard and Pinsir, but it's pretty shit anywhere else in OU

Rhyperior is better than people give it credit for. It's no Terrakion or Tyranitar, but it has its own uses.

Rhyperior has a niche as a solid check to a good amount of physical attackers in OU, but it's almost always passed over in favor of Tyranitar, which can also tank special hits, provide sand support, and has a better movepool.

I might use one for the SR support and defense bulk. But it's really fuggly compared to Rhydon.

With Heatran being as used as it is, I'd say you're the only player giving a shit about how Pokémon look.

It would replace my Nidoqueen, which quite honestly, it's better in Doubles.

which bounce off the mighty chest of this nigger.

252+ Atk Huge Power Azumarill Aqua Jet vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Solid Rock Rhyperior: 192-228 (44.2 - 52.5%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

252+ Atk Technician Mega Scizor Bullet Punch vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Solid Rock Rhyperior: 144-171 (33.1 - 39.4%) -- 10.1% chance to 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

>b, but they'll set up!
no, rhyperior 2hko's azu and 2hko's scizor with rocks (something it can set up)

You aren't going to switch it in on them, but they don't bother it that much. Barely checks even if you want to call them that. (3hko's lol)

You were better off saying something like "a fast special attacker"

Play Rough on fairies as well. Since the fact that a majority of those types are slow and prone to get hit by coverage moves, why can't Gamefreak throw them a bone and let their only good physical STAB options ALWAYS hit since they're making better use out of them? Its complete bullshit.

Rock Polish Life Orb Torterra can take down a large portion of the meta, Megas included, but there are still good reasons not to use him, OP. Same goes for Rhyperior.

I wasn't who you were responding to, I just double checked the calcs. Try not to ignore things like a common attack that has a chance to OHKO and act like Rhyperior can stop them dead in their tracks.

Why run Impish nature without any Defense EVs? If you're going for bulky attacker, try Adamant. The last move could be Hammer Arm or Megahorn.
