Break Ground is another attack lists 160 damage. The cost is Fighting, Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. This attack does 20 damage to each of your Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 4. The flavor text reads "From holes in its palms, it fires out Geodude. Its carapace can withstand volcanic eruptions."

I keep a set binder for Unbroken Bonds, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Unbroken Bonds set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Rhyperior can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
