Variants are a game mechanic in Pokémon Vortex that give Pokémon different appearances, as well as stat bonuses or special effects. A Pokémon's variant is set when it's generated by the game (such as when it appears in the wild or a promo code is created) and cannot be changed.

There are 6 obtainable variants for each Pokémon contained within the main Pokédex and 17 Pokémon within the Side Pokédex that do not have 5 of the usual variants but instead, only have a Normal variant.

List of variants

Obtainable

Variant Appearance Bonus/Effect Rarity Order
Normal Normal Rhydon None Common
Dark Dark Rhydon +25% attack damage Rarer
Mystic Mystic Rhydon 25% chance to prevent opponent from attacking Rarer
Metallic Metallic Rhydon +25% Defense Rarer
Shiny Shiny Rhydon +25% HP Rarest
Shadow Shiny Rhydon Immune to status effects Rarest

Retired

Variant Appearance Bonus/Effect Note
Ancient Ancient Rhydon +25% Defense Replaced by Metallic Pokémon

Notes

  • The Ancient variant was replaced with Metallic in Version 3.
  • Before Version 5, all five non-Normal variants had the same rarity.
  • For a list of Pokémon that do not have variants, see Side Pokédex.
