| + | Dinosaur monsters are aesthetically themed after their historical namesake, as well as other prehistoric beasts like mammoths, ichthyosaurs, and pterosaurs. Some, such as "[[Uraby]]" and "[[Megazowler]]" have more down-to-earth design, while other such as "[[Miscellaneousaurus]]", and "[[Hydrogeddon]]" are more fantastical. Dinosaur monsters are predominantly [[EARTH]] or [[FIRE]], but do have members from all [[Attribute]]s in the game aside from [[DIVINE]]. |

| − | '''Dinosaur''' (Japanese: {{Ruby|恐|きょう}}{{Ruby|竜|りゅう}} ''Kyōryū'') is a type of monster that primarily relies on brute strength, and sometimes [[Monster Effect]]s, to help a Duelist prevail in a [[Duel]]. There are many high-level Dinosaur-[[Type]] monsters, so the general strategy for them is to Summon their high-Level monsters as quickly as possible using cards like "[[Hunting Instinct]]" or "[[Big Evolution Pill]]", overpowering the opponent's weaker monsters before they have a chance to defend themselves. Dinosaurs are predominantly [[EARTH]]-[[Attribute]] monsters (most of those that are or resemble pterosaurs are [[WIND]]), but the release of the "[[Jurrac]]" Archetype led to a surge of [[FIRE]] Dinosaur-Type monsters, continued with the "[[Evolsaur]]" archetype, "[[Number 61: Volcasaurus]]", and "[[Pyrorex the Elemental Lord]]". Dinosaur cards are most notably played by [[Rex Raptor]], [[Tyranno Hassleberry]], [[Scorch]], [[Chills]], and [[Gore]]. | + | Gameplay-wise, Dinosaurs' play style typically revolve around using high-ATK monsters and offensive [[Monster Effect]]s, Special Summoning high-Level Main Deck monsters, and effects that destroy friendly Dinosaurs for advantage, or advantageous effects that trigger from being destroyed by friendly cards. Due to a large number of generic Dinosaur supports, the type is also notable for allowing a great degree of hybridization between various Dinosaur themes. |
| | | | |
| − | In the ''[[Falsebound Kingdom]]'', Dinosaur-Type monsters are treated as [[Dragon]]-Type monsters.
| + | Older Dinosaur supports are often also cross-supports of [[Reptile]] type, referencing the biological connections between Reptiles and Dinosaurs in real life. Some newer Dinosaur supports are cross-support with the [[Dragon]], [[Sea Serpent]] and [[Wyrm]] types; this is likely due to all four types containing the kanji character ''ryuu'' 竜 ("dragon") in Japanese. |

| + | In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! The Falsebound Kingdom]]'', Dinosaur monsters are lumped together with [[Dragon]] monsters, and are treated as the latter Type. |

| − | Dinosaur-Type monsters are rivaled by few (including extremely powerful [[Nomi]] monsters, high-[[Level]] [[Fusion Monsters]], or [[Dragons]]) in terms of overwhelming brute force. They possess the first (and for a long time only and still the only non-"[[Kaiju]]") monster that completely breaks the [[Rule of 3000 ATK and DEF|rule of 3000 ATK]], "[[Super Conductor Tyranno]]"; their [[Field Spell Card]] "[[Jurassic World]]" grants a higher ATK and DEF bonus than any other for specific Monster Types; and they have a powerful searcher, "[[Fossil Dig]]", a Spell Card that can add any Level 6 or lower Dinosaur-Type monster from the Deck to the [[hand]]. They also possess an [[Elemental Lord]] monster, "[[Pyrorex the Elemental Lord]]". In addition, Dinosaurs can search monsters through "[[Miracle Jurassic Egg]]", which builds up counters to be Tributed for a big Dinosaur-Type monster, or "[[Babycerasaurus]]", which combos well with "[[Torrential Tribute]]" or "[[Dark Hole]]". Unlike other Monster Types in which high-Level monsters risk being useless in the hand, Dinosaur-Type monsters have numerous options for getting around Tribute requirements that make high-Level monsters the bread and butter of the Deck. Dinosaurs and Dinosaur support also have a few powerful field clearing cards, most notably "[[Jurrac Meteor]]", "[[Volcanic Eruption]]", and "[[Jurrac Impact]]".

Official Card Game|OCG]], while the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game|TCG]] received them in in ''[[Hidden Arsenal 2]]'', ''[[Hidden Arsenal 3|3]]'', and ''[[Hidden Arsenal 4: Trishula's Triumph|4]]''. Jurracs focus on battle and low-Level Special Summons, and encompass all Dinosaur-Type [[Tuners]] and [[Synchro Monsters]].

| − | [[Evol]] is a multi-[[Type]] archetype that contains the Dinosaur-Type "[[Evolsaur]]" monsters. The [[Reptile]]-Type "[[Evoltile]]" monsters Special Summon ('evolve into') "[[Evolsaur]]" monsters, triggering the [[Evolsaur]] effects. For example, if an "Evoltile" monster 'evolves' into "[[Evolsaur Diplo]]", it can destroy an opponent's Spell/Trap Card. The Dinosaur-Type "Evolsaur" monsters are primarily used as [[Xyz Material]]s for the [[Xyz Summon]] of Dragon-Type "[[Evolzar]]" monsters. For example, "[[Evolzar Laggia]]" requires 2 [[Level 4]] Dinosaurs, and it can detach both its [[Xyz Material]]s to negate and destroy a Spell, Trap, Normal Summon, or Special Summon.
| + | ==Appearance in media== |
| | + | The following characters use Dinosaur monsters across the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' franchise. |
| | | | |
| − | One unique Dinosaur-Type monster, "[[Tyranno Infinity]]", gains a massive 1000 ATK boost for each banished Dinosaur-Type monster, making Dinosaur-Type monsters viable even with the debilitating effects of "[[Macro Cosmos]]" and related cards. "[[Tyranno Infinity]]" also works extremely well with "[[Survival Instinct]]", "[[Miscellaneousaurus]]", and "[[Spacetime Transcendence]]"; such a combo can end games in one blow if used at the right time. "[[Babycerasaurus]]" or "[[Petiteranodon]]" can be combined with "[[Skull Lair]]" to simultaneously recruit and power up "Tyranno Infinity".

Through the use of either "[[Kabazauls]]" or "[[Megalosmasher X]]", the Deck can also access the "[[Bahamut Shark]]"/"[[Toadally Awesome]]" combo for further negation.

| − | The effects of "[[Babycerasaurus]]" and "[[Petiteranodon]]" allow a player to rapidly swarm the field with Level 4 Dinosaurs if triggered reliably, which can be accomplished using the effects of the "[[True King]]" monsters; primarily the [[EARTH]] "[[True King Lithosagym, the Disaster]]", as destroying the EARTH "Babycerasaurus" and "Petiteranodon" will allow the effect of "Lithosagym" to be used as its strongest. The Deck's [[Field Spell Card]], "[[Dragonic Diagram]]", allows the player to destroy a card in their hand or field to search out a "True King", thereby generating excellent advantage.
