ROCK WRECKER PVE ANALYSIS
Let’s not beat around the bush here: Rock Wrecker Rhyperior is very, VERY good. It ends up just behind the Rock-type king Rampardos DPS-wise, but if you look at Rampardos’ monstrous attack stat, there’s no big surprise in that.
When you look at the TDO, Rhyperior leaves the rest behind BY FAR, aiming to be a hard-hitting attacker that can tank a move or two as well (beware of the Grass-types, though). With Rhyhorn spawning all over the place on February 22, take your chance to grab candy, your buildup of Sinnoh Stones, and evolve some!
ROCK WRECKER PVP ANALYSIS
Loving Rock Wrecker in PvE already? You might want to take a look at it in PvP as well.
In open Great League, Rhyperior doesn’t look to be shifting the core meta, as it doesn’t sport a favorable win/loss ratio. If you can fit it in your team of 3, you might find a way to run it successfully! In the ongoing Rose Cup, however, it certainly can be a threat to the Meta, which can be the case as well in Silph Cups to come.

Master League is just around the corner in the GO Battle League, and you might be scared by a few dominating meta-Pokémon like Origin Giratina, Togekiss, and Dialga. Well fear not Trainers, Rhyperior’s got you covered. With Mud Shot as Fast Move, and Surf and Rock Wrecker as its Charged Moves, you can beat ALL THREE of them in the 1-shield scenario! It’s close sometimes, but if you manage to bait those Shields successfully, you got it!
In short, and as always, we recommend you to evolve at least one Rhyperior for every league. Better safe than sorry!
