A bunch of Pokémon have returned in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s The Indigo Disk DLC, including Rhyhorn and Rhydon—so you’ll need a Protector to add the final evolution to your Pokédex.
Rhyperior was first introduced in Gen IV’s Diamond and Pearl, quickly becoming a fan favorite and appearing in several games since. Now, the final evolution of Rhyhorn is making a return, but you’ll have to do some groundwork to evolve it. You need to get your hands on a Protector if you want to evolve Rhydon into Rhyperior, and we’ve got all the information on how you can get one here.
Protector location in Pokémon SV The Indigo Disk DLC
The Protector can be purchased at the School Store in Blueberry Academy for 250 BP. To reach the School Store, you need to start The Indigo Disk DLC and play through until Carmine shows you to your dorm room. Afterward, you’re free to explore.
Head to the School Store by interacting with the door in the Blueberry Academy and choosing it as your destination. You then need to speak to the NPC behind the desk, where you can buy the Protector for 250 BP as well as other items like vitamins, EXP. Candy, TMs, and more.
If you need to gather up more BP, aka Blueberry Points, you need to complete quests. Once you have collected enough points, head back to the School Store and complete the purchase of the Protector.
You can also find a free Protector in the Terarium, specifically in the Savanna biome. It can be picked up near the cliffs that mark the edge of the Terarium, directly south of the Savanna Plaza. Once you have the Protector, you can give it to a Rhydon to hold and then trade with a friend to trigger the evolution to Rhyperior.
