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]].

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.

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.

Ultimate Conductor Tyranno
"Ultimate Conductor Tyranno", a Dinosaur monster.

Dinosaur (Japanese: きょうりゅう Kyōryū) is a Type of Monster Card. It debuted in Vol.1 in the OCG, Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon in the TCG, and Deck Mod Pack: Hyperspeed Rush Road!! in Rush Duel.

Overview[edit]

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 Attributes in the game aside from DIVINE.

Gameplay-wise, Dinosaurs' play style typically revolve around using high-ATK monsters and offensive Monster Effects, 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.

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.
