User	First Used In		Notes
	Rhyperior puts its hands together, and small chunks of gray stones come out of the holes on Rhyperior's hands and form together into a large gray rock that is outlined in red. The red outline then fades and Rhyperior throws the rock at the opponent. Rhyperior becomes tired out for a while after the attack is used.
