Legendary Collection is a set in the Other series. It was released on May 24, 2002. The printed size is 110, and the checklist is the same length. Rhydon is 35/110, in position 35 of 110 on this checklist. Before it is 34 Pidgeotto, and after it is 36 Arcanine. The listed rarity is Rare.

Rhydon is a Stage 1 Fighting Pokémon with 100 HP. The card lists level 48. In the Pokédex this is Rhydon (#112), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Rhyhorn. In this catalog that name is Rhyhorn (#111). The card lists Rhyperior, Rhyperior (#464) under evolves to.

Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this card. The same name is on 656 other cards in the catalog.

Rhydon (#112) has 19 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 17 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2024. The earliest other card is Rhydon 45/64 in Jungle (1999). Both list 100 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Rare. 15 other cards of Rhydon list a different HP.

Rhydon does 20 damage to itself. Your opponent switches the Defending Pokémon with 1 of his or her Benched Pokémon, if any. (Do the damage before switching the Pokémon. Switch the Pokémon even if Rhydon is Knocked Out.) Weakness is Grass ×2. Resistance is Lightning -30. Retreat cost is 3. The flavor text reads "Protected by an armor-like hide, it is capable of living in molten lava of 3600 degrees."

I keep a set binder for Legendary Collection, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Legendary Collection set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Rhydon can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
