Centrosaurus

Centrosaurus and Kentrosaurus had a minor confusion where it was assumed they both had the same name, and they were given new names like "Eucentrosaurus" and "Kentrurosaurus"; however, as the spelling and pronunciation differed, they were not the same name and the renaming was unnecessary and reverted.

Trivia

  • Translation: A herbivore with long, large horn on its nose.
• DS Game Encyclopedia entry: A herbivore with a long, big horn on its nose. Has short, hooked horns on its frill.
• Its card was the first exclusive card in Japanese arcade, and was the first exclusive card in 2006.
  • It could initially be acquired by exchanging an amount of ordinary cards, along with Fukuisaurus and Fukuiraptor, in 2006.
• In the DS Game, it is the only 2-star Dinosaur mixed in with North America's otherwise 3-star random encounter table, the only unique exception species within an area to not match Rarities with the rest (though another area had Dinosaurs of 2 different Rarities for each Attribute).
