Anime

Mesozoic Meltdown

Shear had Yangchuanosaurus use Venom Fang to intercept and block Chomp, Piatnitzkysaurus breathing a purple mist at him to force him back. However, Chomp quickly managed to knock Piatnitzkysaurus away and defeated it with Thunder Bazooka. The card was presumably reclaimed by Max.

Trivia

• Artwork from one of its various arcade cards is also seen on the TCG Move Card Poison Mist (07 1st/1st+).
• In the arcade game's animation, one can see that the victim "leaps" forward to avoid the poison, but then stops immediately so that Piatnitzkysaurus can attack them. This animation is often overlooked due to the camera angles, but the strangeness of its logic will always be present.
• In the DS game, Venom Fang has Piatnitzkysaurus use Diving Press's animation instead of its own arcade version's, and with green smoke instead of purple.
• Since the Piatnitzkysaurus becomes a normal Wind Dinosaur later in the Japanese arcade, ironically, when it uses the Move Venom Fang, another Piatnitzkysaurus is summoned, although the dinosaur could theoretically have used the Move itself.
