Overview
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.
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 Dinosaur monsters for advantage. Dinosaur monsters are predominantly EARTH or FIRE, but do have members from all Attributes in the game aside from DIVINE.
In Yu-Gi-Oh! The Falsebound Kingdom, Dinosaur monsters are lumped together with Dragon monsters, and are treated as the latter Type.
