Anime

Dinosaur King

In Maui Owie!, a lightning bolt activated a Styracosaurus card in Hawaii. He chased a herd of cows, probably thinking that he was the same kind of creature before encountering Chomp and helping to determine there was a thorn in Chomp's paw. After that he befriended the D-Team, even surfing with Chomp on a giant display surfboard. When the Alpha Gang showed up, he tried fighting them but was overpowered by Terry and Spiny, finally collapsing from exhaustion after Terry and Spiny's attacks (Tail Smash and Neck Crusher) knocked Chomp into him.

He reappeared under Zander's control in Alpha's Zeta Point, attacking Max and defeating Chomp. He faced the D-Team again in Escape from Zeta Point, but was defeated by Ceratosaurus and recaptured by Chomp and reclaimed by Max.

Mesozoic Meltdown

A wild Styracosaurus helped Chomp fight Terry in Alien Parent Trap, it and a wild Pachycephalosaurus slamming into him and knocking him away.

Trivia

• Dr. Taylor's arcade comments:
  • Japanese: えりかざりに大きな6本の角を持っている。鼻先の角も長くするどい。草食恐竜だ。
  • English: A herbivore with six large horns on its neck frill. It also has a long, sharp horn on its nose.
  • Taiwanese: 在領飾部分有6隻角,鼻尖的角也是又長又銳利,是草食恐龍。
• It was the first gold rarity Lightning Dinosaur card in the arcade.
• Along with Albertosaurus, Brachyceratops, Ceratosaurus, Stegosaurus and Maiasaura, it one of the available dinosaurs in Japanese non-sale North American Egg II Card.
• Styracosaurus was not available in last few arcade versions, and it was the only one of the group of first gold rarity arcade dinosaurs that didn't get a Super Form, as its status was replaced by the "Orange" Triceratops resembling Chomp (Super Triceratops's base form).
