Anime

Mesozoic Meltdown

He was first summoned by Foolscap in Desert Heat to attack the D-Team when he thought they had the Red Cosmos Stone. He quickly knocked Chomp away, and when Ace was summoned, he fought in his Spectral Armor form against him. He then used Anhanguera Dive to defeat Ace. However, Paris was then summoned and used Green Impulse to counter the Anhanguera with Tupuxuara, allowing Zoe to defeat and reclaim the card. Chomp then used Ultimate Thunder to defeat Pachyrhinosaurus. His card was reclaimed by Max.

Trivia

• Dr. Taylor's arcade comments:
  • Japanese: 太く力強い角を鼻先に持つ草食恐竜だ。えりかざりにはいろいろな形の角がある。
  • English: A herbivore with a stocky, strong horn on its nose. It can have very differently-shaped spikes on its neck frill.
  • Taiwanese: 鼻尖長著粗壯且強而有力的角的草食恐龍，在領飾部分有著各種形狀的角。
• It is the first Sliver rarity Lightning Dinosaur card in the arcade.
• Despite being portrayed with a large, sharp, bony protrusion on its nose, in reality, Pachyrhinosaurus would only have had a flat, maybe rough, slightly raised bony pad (as seen in the skeleton image in the Gallery below).
  • This may be due to many Lightning Moves requiring large, pointed nose horns to use, which Pachyrhinosaurus didn't have. However, Achelousaurus, another ceratopsian without a nose horn, wasn't changed.
• When its card floats down after being defeated, it is Yangchuanosaurus' card, but it's Pachyrhinosaurus' when Max catches it. This is likely because they had recycled the animation from Yang's episode and forgot to change all of it.
• Unlike every other non-main dinosaur in the TCG, Pachyrhinosaurus has 2 different versions of its regular TCG card with different abilities. One is in the original Base Set (DKCG), and the other is in the Spectral Armor Shock deck (SAS). Why the plain Pachyrhinosaurus was reused instead of simply adding another word to its name to create a "new" dinosaur card as had been standard in the TCG for some time is unknown.
