Statistics

Arcade Stats

• Attribute: Spectral (Water Dinosaur)
• Sign: None
• Usage Condition: This Move can only be used after Spectral Armor Bronto has filled its armor bar and gained its Spectral Armor, triggering on the first win after each time the bar is filled.
• Effect: The screen dims black save for the six glowing gems on Bronto's Spectral Armor, the top four moving up and out, then the top two moving further up and back in, the image returning to reveal two new arms unfolded from the armor on Bronto's sides and forming a near circular arc over his back. Energy is channeled from the gems into the base of the large armor spike on Bronto's neck, and then unleashed in a massive purple beam that destroys his terrified opponent!
• Other: Like all arcade Ultimate Moves, it has no card, nor does it count towards the 3-Move limit. It is exclusively a default function within every Spectral Armor Bronto card.

The gems light up in sequence, energy is channeled from them into the black gems on the base of the large armor spike on Brontikens' neck, and then a large Spectral emblem appears in front of him, out of which the spike unleashes a massive purple beam that destroys his opponent!

Trivia

• It was the only Spectral Move to not defeat a dinosaur, despite seemingly being by far the strongest.
• It was the fourth and final Spectral Move to debut.
• Though only used by one dinosaur, Apatosaurus, that dinosaur's Element is alternately Water in the arcade and Secret in the anime.
• It's the only Super Secret Move to appear in the TCG, though not being based on a Move that was strictly speaking of the Secret Attribute.
