In the estate, we were watching TV and playing card games. When suddenly from out of nowhere was a massive and extremely blinding white light as bright as a million suns and then most of us got a massively splitting headache! It hurt so bad that it felt like our heads were being crushed by a pile-driver. Suddenly I was inside my subconscious and everything in my head was on fire! Again!
Me: Whoa! Why is everything in my head on fire again!?
J.D. 2: It might have something to do with that massive flash of light.
?: That is because of our worlds merging.
We then saw another me! Except he had big muscles and was wearing clothes like Gohan's.
Me: WHOA! You're another me!
J.D. 3: That's right. It's a very strange and complicated story.
J.D. 2: We would like to hear it.
J.D. 3: Okay. Well I am actually a caveman.
Me and J.D. 2: A Caveman!?
Me: Wow!
J.D. 3: An immortal caveman actually. I have lived for over 75,000 years.
Me and J.D. 2: Wow!
Me: 75,000 years!? That's incredible! I've lived for 150,000 years.
J.D. 2: And I've lived for over 20,000,000,000 years.
J.D. 3: That's incredible! But I should tell you how it happened. I was one of the first of modern man. I was living in a peaceful village in northern Alaska. As I was sleeping a strange meteor fell from the skies and I went over to see what it was. As I got closer it emitted a very strange red glow and bathed me in some kind of mysterious energy. I then saw my village under attack by a rival caveman clan and I fought them off. But one of the cavemen me stabbed with a spear in my chest. But I saw that I wasn't dying or anything. I discovered that I was immortal and invincible. The meteor's energy changed me and gave me immortality.
Me: Whoa!
J.D. 2: That's amazing! I've heard about this. Meteors have been known to contain mysterious chemical properties over the eons and this is exactly like what happened with Batman's enemy Kru'll the Eternal.
J.D. 3: That's exactly right. But he has lived for 10,000 years where I have lived for over 75,000 years. But I have witnessed it all over the course of 75,000 years. Every event all over the history of the Earth I have seen firsthand as I travelled the world and witnessed it all. Every war, every battle and every event over the course of history and every event that occurred even before the biblical times.
Me: That's amazing! But how did you cope with the pain of loneliness that immortality carries? Usually when you're immortal all you have is an eternal life of loneliness and helplessness.
J.D. 3: That's true. But I kept everyone and everything I know very close to my heart in spirit.
Me: Wow.
J.D. 2: Amazing.
Me: It sure is. I have so much to learn from you.
J.D. 3: I am more than willing to share. But now that I am part of you, I have a huge task for you.
Me: What is it?
J.D. 3: This may sound hard to believe but I am also the guardian and brother of a boy named Eli Winston Bullock. You would love him. He is the son of Pharaoh Atem of Egypt.
Me: From 3000 B.C.?
J.D. 3: That's right. But Eli was sent into the future and Eli was adopted by a nice family in Japan. But his mom and dad were killed during the epic meltdown battle between Godzilla and Destoroyah.
Me: Oh man! That's horrible!
J.D. 2: No kidding and we killed Godzilla in our world.
J.D. 3: I know. I saw that. That's amazing. But I found Eli and Aerith became his guardian along with me. But there's something you should know. Eli is out to get revenge on the monster that killed Aerith. Sephiroth.
Me and J.D. 2: SEPHIROTH!?
Me: The One Winged Angel of Jenova that killed countless innocent people!?
J.D. 3: That's him. Eli will get his revenge on him no matter what. So you have to help him with that.
Me: You can count on us. But Sephiroth in our universe is dead.
J.D. 3: I saw that. But also Eli has an awesome and amazing girlfriend. Nunnally of Brittania.
J.D. 2: I've heard so much about her.
J.D. 3: I'm glad. Eli is a true hero as well. You'll see why. Also has many amazing skills and abilities because I'm the one who taught him everything I know and more. He's a Gundam Pilot and he has the King of Hearts mark on the back of his right hand. I have this.
J.D. 3 showed me his mark and it was the Queen the Spade.
Me: The Queen the Spade.
J.D. 3: That's right. Domon Kashu has the mark of the King of Hearts too. He's also very skilled in so much.
He told us what he can do.
J.D. 2: Wow! You taught him really well.
Me: I'll say. You're a really good teacher like me. I better get back and tell everyone.
J.D. 3: Okay. And thank you.
I got back to the real world and it was intense.
Me: Whoa!
Lori: What a rush!
Leni: That was totes intense.
?: What happened?
We then saw a boy no older than Lincoln and he had blonde hair, a white shirt, a blue vest, blue shorts, white socks and tennis shoes. It was Eli Winston Bullock.
Eli: J.D.!
Me: Eli!
We hugged.
Aerith then hugged him too.
Nico: You guys know this kid?
Me: Oh that's right. We have a lot of explaining to do.
We did so and everyone had ice packs on their heads.
When it was done everyone was shocked!
Nico: WHOA! That's amazing! That explains what that massive flash of light was.
Lincoln: So now you have a 20 billion year old hero and a 75,000 year old caveman inside you? That's amazing!
Rita: It sure is.
Lily: No kidding.
?: Uwa.
A little baby boy with a brown small hair came and he had a green pajama pants on and he went over to Lily.
Lily: (Gasp) Oh aren't you adorable.
Lily picked him up.
Eli: Oh that's Leopold. But everyone calls him Leo. He's your baby brother Lily.
Lily: I've always wanted a baby brother.
Lincoln: Me too!
Nunnally then appeared. She was beautiful.
Nico: Wow.
Nunnally: Hello everyone. My name is Nunnally Lamperouge VI of Brittannia and it's such an honor to meet you all.
Nico: Pleasure to meet you too. My name is Nico. Nico Chan.
Eli: Pleasure to meet you Nico.
I then saw a scar on Eli's chest.
Me: Whoa how did you get that scar Eli?
J.D. 3 was talking to me through my E crest in the middle of my forehead as it was glowing blue. J.D. 2 talks to me through my E crest when it glows red.
J.D. 3: That's part of what Eli went through J.D. Leni accidentally sent Lori, Lincoln, me and Eli into the past 50 years ago and Eli got shot defending Maria Robotnik from soldiers.
Most of us gasped.
Me: Whoa! Eli is a true hero.
Varie: Amazing! He is a very brave kid.
Me: I know.
Vince: He sure is a brave kid.
Me: I should tell you everything about Eli.
I went over everything about Eli and everyone was shocked and full of surprise!
Lori: WHOA! That is literally amazing!
Sam S.L.: So me, Carol, Dana, Becky, Teri and Darcy are like sisters to him? That's rockin dude.
Carol: It sure is.
Becky: It sure is.
Nico: And Eli is just as gifted as you J.D.
Me: He sure is.
Eli: Yeah. But what is this group you're all part of?
Me: We are called Team Loud Phoenix Storm.
I went over the entirety of our adventures and more and what we have done and so much.
Eli and Nunnally: WHOA!
Eli: That's incredible!
Nunnally: You guys have done it all over the years.
Me: We've seen it all too. Some adventures were awesome and some were very challenging.
Yang: They sure were.
Devon Daniels: Oh yeah.
Eli: It's gonna be so awesome being with you all.
Laney: It sure is.
Rainbow Dash: It's cool though.
Sunset Shimmer: It sure is.
Me: Yep.
My watch beeped.
Me: Oh it's time to visit the Royal Defenders in The Raft.
Eli: Who are the Royal Defenders?
Me: You would hate these guys Eli. They are essentially us gone bad. They are an evil version of us from another universe and we declared war on them a couple of weeks ago and we defeated them. You know the Justice Lords right?
Eli: How can I not know about them? They are the Justice League gone rogue.
Me: That's right. The Royal Defenders are like the Justice Lords times 10.
Eli: Whoa!
I went over everything they did and it was not pretty.
Eli and Nunnally gasped in horror.
Eli: That's insane! Why would they do all that!?
Lynn: Blame their version of me for that. They went through what we call the Bad Luck Karma Fiasco. It was horrible.
Ed Cowart: Yeah and here's the intel on what they were doing.
Ed gave him a file on the intel he gave us and Eli read it and more. He was shocked!
Eli: He took away the Mane 7's free will and demoralized heroes all over the world and their universe!? THAT'S INSANE!
Me: That's one of the reasons why we went into war against them. To show that they have lost their humanity and weren't respecting our number 1 rule: With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility.
Eli: Big rule.
Hunter: (German Accent) Ja. Und it has been a very important rule for us.
Me: Lets introduce you to the people you haven't met.
They did so.
Eli: Wow! It's awesome to meet you all. How come some of the villains are also in the team?
Nico: Some of them have been rehabilitated and are now part of the teams Redemption Squad. We have a lot of awesome teams with us.
Eli: Awesome!
Me: Lets head to the Raft.
We were off to the Raft.
We arrived at The Raft, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s own Alcatraz.
Eli: So the Royal Defenders are now at The Raft?
Me: Yep. We locked them up in here after we defeated them.
Nico: They deserve to spend every second and minute of their miserable lives in here for what they did.
Eli: Good.
Kitten: Here we are. The cell of Lincoln Loud from the Royal Defenders.
We arrived at his cell and opened it and went in and RD Lincoln saw us.
RD Lincoln: Look who it is.
Eli: So you are the Royal Defenders Lincoln.
RD Lincoln: That's right young one and you are?
Eli: Eli Winston Bullock. Just moved to Gotham Royal York.
Sunset Shimmer and the Equestria Girls were pissed at RD Lincoln.
Sunset: Tell me. Was the friendship you had with my counterpart real?
RD Lincoln: Of course it was! Hell, your counterpart on my world was even part of my family!
Twilight Sparkle: Then why did you put servitude chips in her and the counterparts of me and my friends?!
RD Lincoln: Because your Team Loud Phoenix Storm buddies pushed me into doing so when they declared war on us! I knew your counterparts would never support what we were doing next willingly. What was I supposed to do? Just let me and my family get killed? I'll do whatever it takes to win!
Shadowcat: Is that what you think a hero does?!
Me: Also Sunset and her friends were not part of our group when we declared war on you.
Ruby Rose: YOU MONSTER!
Ruby then jumped him and she was beating up RD Lincoln savagely.
Ruby: (starts to cry) You'll never hurt anyone again. DO YOU HEAR ME?! NEVER! (sobs)
Swindle: Guys, we need to stop her before she kills him! (disgusted) I can't believe I just said that.
Lincoln and Nico grabbed her. Ruby's arm started turning pitch black!
Me: Ruby calm down. Killing him is not worth it!
Sunstreaker: Ruby, I thought we stopped you and your friends from becoming Heartless!
Jaune: Don't look at me. Me, Ren, Nora, Oscar, and Qrow don't feel any darkness inside us anymore.
Ruby: But me, Weiss, Blake, and Yang do. Probably because we spent several months apart after the Battle of Beacon. (sobs) I guess we're cursed to have these fucking monsters inside us!
Ruby's eyes turned yellow for a few seconds.
Aqua: Nobody is gonna be cursed on my watch.
Aqua fired a wave of light and it got rid of the evil heartless inside Ruby forever.
Me: Whew.
Eli: Boy they went through a nightmare.
Nico: Tell me about it.
We left the prison.
Later we were getting ready to go to the island next door to where Isla Nublar was: Isla Sorna.
Aerith: Isla Sorna?
Eli: That's right Aerith.
Me: The island right next door to Isla Nublar? Why there again?
Eli: Cause I wanted to show both Aerith and Maria what's in site B.
Me: Oh. I get it.
Eli: And lets get the Loud's, Casagrande's and their friends to join us.
Me: Good idea. All of us will go.
We gathered everyone.
Eli: Lincoln, Lana, Lisa come up here with us.
Lincoln: Sure.
They did so.
Eli: Everyone we're going to an island that J.D., Nunnally, Lincoln, Lana, Lisa, and I have been on before. It's called Isla Sorna Site-B.
Everyone gasped!
Laney: Why there!?
Eli: Because Aerith and Maria haven't been there yet.
Me: Yeah.
J.D. 3: Yeah we went to the island of Jurassic Park before. It was amazing.
Eli: Now let's get a boat and shove off!
Qin: Lets do it!
Everyone: YEAH!
We were off and we were sailing to the Costa Rica there is Isla Sorna.
Eli: Land ho!
We saw the island.
Me: Isla Sorna, dead ahead.
Isla Sorna is an island 333 kilometers (207 miles) west of Costa Rica. Isla Sorna is the largest island of The Five Deaths island chain, located north east of Isla Tacaño and south of Isla Muerta.
After InGen bought Isla Sorna, they code-named the island "Site B". Isla Sorna became InGen's "factory floor", where dinosaurs were cloned in the various facilities InGen built on the island. The dinosaurs were nursed in temporary cages until they were fit to be transported to Jurassic Park on Isla Nublar, 87 miles east of Isla Sorna.
After Hurricane Clarissa hit the island, all personnel were evacuated from the island and the facilities were later abandoned. However, before they left, the InGen personnel unlocked the cages so that the dinosaurs could have a better chance of surviving the storm. Within a few years, the dinosaurs took over the island and established a fully functional ecosystem.
In the first stages of the development of The Lost World: Jurassic Park, the geography of the novel version of the island was used. Later, they made a new version of the island. The geography of this island is revealed in the Hammond Scene of the film. John Hammond shows Ian Malcolm a screen on which the thermal signatures of the dinosaurs is seen, but the island as a whole is also seen. Based on this and other maps, the crew of Jurassic Park Legacy made a more detailed map that shows all locations.
The location of Isla Sorna is also revealed. At the start of The Lost World it's shown that Isla Sorna is located 87 miles (140 kilometers) southwest of Isla Nublar. At the start of Jurassic Park III it says that it is located 207 miles (333 kilometers) west of Costa Rica. Before the expedition leaves, when Kelly Malcolm is inspecting the Fleetwood RV Mobile Lab, a map of the island which includes part of Costa Rica, as well as latitude and longitude markings, is shown. From this map, the location of the island is as follows:
Latitude: 8 degrees 25 minutes North (8.4166667)
Longitude: 87 degrees 40 minutes West (-87.66666666666667)
Furthermore, when Nick Van Owen calls from the Worker Village, he gives the following coordinates:
Latitude: 9 degrees 58 minutes North
Longitude: 85 degrees...
The geography, like Isla Nublar, was originally igneous. Part of a hotspot archipelago in the Pacific, Las Cinco Muertes, Isla Sorna has a geographical plain of sharp volcanic cliffs, which over time, has been overlain with both classic and coniferous jungle. This volcanic history was actually tapped into by InGen, who used geothermal energy as a renewable power source to run the Worker Village. Incredibly mountainous, this geological construct has allowed for an interesting division between the predators and herbivores of the island. The larger and more fearsome carnivores such as the Tyrannosaurus and Velociraptor tend to stay mostly towards the island interior, while the herbivores such as Parasaurolophus and Mamenchisaurus stay on the rim of the island along with very small carnivores such as Compsognathus. Interestingly, the structure of this island allows for a very curious arrangement. The island has multiple channels and canyons that cut into the island interior all the way from the coast. This allows for the statements said by John Hammond in 1997, and the often misinterpreted statement about the arrangement said by Eric Kirby in 2001 to both be true. Essentially, a large enough portion of the island interior also has a large number of water inlets cutting into it. Although the island is in a tropical region, at night, Isla Sorna has been shown to be cold enough for one to see their own breath.
Topographic Map
The topographic map of Isla Sorna was first used in The Lost World, based on an earlier script, although it remained the same and was reused for the production of Jurassic Park 3. A similar topography is seen on Eddie's radar.
Several places on the island are named here, with their altitudes known to the ocean, from some beaches, mountains, and other geographical disasters. One of the highest points shown on the map are "Punto Alto" or , 1000 meters high, in the north of the island and separated from the rest by a ravage caused by one of the rivers, another would be the great accompanying mountain of "Lago Real", a disaster that is closer to the center of the island and that connects to various water sources . Although referred to in the movies, sites such as the Main river of Site B or the Isla Sorna Lagoon are not named on the map, probably due to being casual names rather than true geographical identification.
Around Isla Sorna, several islets are seen, two of them known as "La Roca Grande", to the northwest, and "La Roca Muerta", to the southeast. Because of their large size they can be seen on the map, unlike the rocks closest to the coast seen during Jurassic Park 3.
Mountainous areas:
Lago Real
La Pradera
Sierra San Fernando
Campo de Trabajadores/Worker Village
Palo Blanco
Laguna Escondido
Some of the beaches of Isla Sorna may include:
Playa Grande
Playa del Sol
Punta Tiburón
Playa Firme
Punta Magdalena
Punto Trinidad
Also framed human roads and settlements, only the Worker Village is named, the other structures are unknown, since it has not been confirmed what their true identity is.
History
Before InGen populated this island with dinosaurs, Isla Sorna was just trees, plant life, and living animals.
During InGen's operations on the Island, there were four areas that were constructed. The Embryonics Administration was the main factory that produced the dinosaurs on a massive scale. There was also an airstrip that was built close to the Embryonics Administration. After the production of a mutant variety of Pteranodon, a large Aviary was constructed where the genetic mutated Pterosaurs could be studied and quarantined. Following the river through which the aviary was connected, several cargoes and at least one boat could be seen to transport materials, to an area with an unused structure and a crane accompanied by a cliff.
The Worker Village was a small compound that was used as the barracks for the Employees who worked at Isla Sorna as well as possessing a radio that could reach the mainland. InGen continued their operations on Isla Sorna up until 1993, sometime after the Incident on Isla Nublar, when a hurricane struck Isla Sorna and forced the evacuation of the island.
After the evacuation of Isla Sorna, the dinosaurs were freed and left to take care of themselves. In 1997, a British family on a yacht cruise stumbles on the Island and the family's little girl is attacked by several Compsognathus. Peter Ludlow, John Hammond's nephew, uses the incident to take over InGen and become the new CEO of the company. Knowing that Ludlow is planning an expedition to Isla Sorna to capture the dinosaurs to be displayed at Jurassic Park: San Diego, Hammond sends his own team to Isla Sorna to document the dinosaurs in order to gain public support for the isolation of Isla Sorna as a natural preserve. As Ian Malcolm points out, the dinosaurs should have succumbed to the Lysine Contingency and died after about 6 or 7 days, but Hammond reveals that the animals are actually thriving on the island. He also explains that carnivores tend to group towards the middle of the island while herbivores stay mostly on the outer rim.
However, once on the island, the clashing of Ludlow's and Hammond's teams causes chaos to break loose. The survivors on both teams have to combine forces and hike to the Worker's Village in order to send a distress call. After a few days of hiking, the teams encounter a pair of parent Tyrannosaurus, and then a pack of Velociraptors outside a field of long grass. Their numbers now heavily diminished, the rescue call is made and the teams are airlifted out. However, Ludlow is able to salvage his operation by capturing a male T. rex. Unfortunately the Tyrannosaur Buck breaks loose and rampages through San Diego, the animal is eventually recaptured and returned to Isla Sorna, along with the Infant T. rex. After this incident, Isla Sorna is declared a restricted zone by both the US and Costa Rican governments while deliberation begins by both sides on what should be done with the island.
In 1998, a small team of scientists from InGen illegally landed on Isla Sorna against the 1997 Gene Guard Act and began the process of cloning new species of dinosaurs not created before and therefore were not on "InGen's list". They were grown and experimented on over a period of nine months covertly in order to avoid any carnivorous dinosaurs. The new species included Ankylosaurus, Ceratosaurus, Corythosaurus, and Spinosaurus; all of which were abandoned on the Island when the scientists left.
Four years later, in 2001, a 12-year-old boy and his mother's boyfriend, Eric Kirby and Ben Hildebrand respectively, went parasailing near Isla Sorna in hopes to see dinosaurs. Unfortunately, something attacks their boat, leaving Ben and Eric stranded on the island. After pleading to multiple agencies for help in getting their son back, a divorced couple Paul and Amanda Kirby travel to the island with Alan Grant and a trio of mercenaries in order to retrieve Eric. After a Spinosaurus destroys their plane and takes out two of the mercenaries, the group is left stranded on the island. After finding Ben's rotted corpse, the group treks on but gets separated after a Velociraptor encounter. Eventually finding Eric and regrouping, the Kirbys and Alan Grant are able to send a call to Ellie Degler, whose husband works for the US State Department. She is then able to send the US Marines and Navy to the island and rescue the Kirbys and Alan Grant.
Jurassic World
Because Isla Sorna is never mentioned during the film, it was unknown what happened to the dinosaurs that were on the island during the incident at Jurassic World. However, it's possible that dinosaurs are still plentiful on the island. Also, since Isla Sorna is still considered a restricted area as of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, this theory could be true.
According to a report by DPG, the remaining dinosaurs on Sorna were moved to Nublar to be housed as attractions at Jurassic World.[3] The operation to move the animals from Sorna to the park site on Isla Nublar was critical to their well-being.
"A considerable and mystifying drop in population on Isla Sorna had recently been discovered; some paleontologists claimed it was the result of territorial disputes, others argued disease was the catalyst, while some scientists even placed the blame on the animals' behavior."
Ecology
The Lost World: Jurassic Park was filmed in Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park and Patrick's Point State Park, (northern California).[4] Showing a temperate Redwood forest. Jurassic Park III was filmed on the tropical island Molokai (Hawaii).
The Jurassic Park 3 region appeared to be much more tropical than The Lost World region, possibly due to mountains keeping moisture from reaching the other portion.
While dinosaurs are the most commonly seen fauna, mammals and reptiles (along with birds and amphibians) also live around the island. The seas that surround the island serve as the prominent habitat for numerous water based fauna including fish, marine mammals, and even sharks.
In regards to the carnivores, Tyrannosaurus dominates at the top of the food chain as the main apex predator of the island. However, after the illegal species created in 1998 were released on the island, the Spinosaurus began to compete with Tyrannosaurus for territory, while predators such as Velociraptors, Compsognathus, Dilophosaurus, and many others each occupy their own niches.
On the other hand, giant herbivores like sauropods have the advantage of feeding on trees, all the while leaving the grass and low growing vegetation to herbivores who restrict themselves to feeding at that level, thus displaying herbivore niche partitioning.
Flocks of pterosaurs can also be found flying throughout the skies.
Migrations are known to occur on Sorna from time to time, usually in dry seasons and droughts when food and water become less abundant for the herbivores. On other occasions such as breeding season, herds of herbivorous dinosaurs travel long distances to reach their traditional nesting grounds.

Dinosaurs
All of the dinosaurs on InGen's List were cloned on Isla Sorna. It should be noted that these dinosaurs were at some point planned to be shipped to the park on Isla Nublar, but this never occurred due to the 1993 incident. Dinosaurs that exist on the island include:
Baryonyx (5)
Brachiosaurus (10)
Carnotaurus (2)
Compsognathus (43)
Dilophosaurus (12)
Edmontosaurus (4)
Gallimimus (20)
Geosternbergia ?
Herrerasaurus ?
Maiasaura ?
Hadrosaurus ?
Mamenchisaurus (4)
Microceratus (22)
Pachycephalosaurus (9)
Parasaurolophus (13)
Pteranodon (10)
Stegosaurus (11)
Triceratops (10)
Tyrannosaurus (6)
Velociraptor (18)
It is known that Herrerasaurus was created by InGen on Isla Nublar, but is not known if any remained on Isla Sorna or not. Geosternbergia is seen in The Lost World to be on Isla Sorna but the exact numbers or even the species have not been revealed by the DPG. This also happens with Maiasaura and Hadrosaurus, which can be seen as part of the Roland's dinosaur guide.
After Masrani Global Corporation bought InGen, at least four illegal species were cloned and released on the island, which were the Ankylosaurus, Ceratosaurus, Corythosaurus, and Spinosaurus.
We head to shore it was a jungle island.
Me: Here we are.
Eli: Okay everyone we're here.
Me:Wow.
Nico: I've got a bad feeling about this.
Eli:This way!
We all followed Eli And there is a Brachiosaurus.
We gasped!
Me: Wow!
Maria: Is that?
Aerith: A dinosaur?!
Me: Yep. Brachiosaurus. 150 million years ago they lived.
And there was a huge herd of Brachiosaurus.
Me: Whoa!
Maria: Grandfather would've loved to see this!
Lana: It's awesome!
Eli: Aerith, Maria, everyone, Welcome...to Jurassic Park.
Stewie: Here we are in Jurassic Park!
We saw herds of many different kinds of dinosaurs and they were incredible.
Me: Wow!
Lincoln: So amazing!
Leo: Oh!
Me: We know many different kinds of dinosaurs and prehistoric life. In Gotham Royal York we have an awesome preserve called Paleozoic World where all the creatures from over the course of 700 million years live.
Eli: Wow!
We saw a herd of stegosaurus.
Me: Stegosaurus.
Eli explained how the dinosaurs were brought back to life to Aerith, Nunnally and Maria and they gasped in shock.
Eli: So this is the second island of dinosaurs but no fences this time.
Me: Yep. But these scientists were really playing with fire and tampering with the laws of Mother Nature and it lead to devastating consequences.
Laney: Just like in the books of Jurassic Park.
Riku: You think some of us can have dinosaurs for pets?
Me: I am not sure that's a good idea Riku. But it would be cool.
Lily: It sure would. Look there.
Lily pointed to a herd of Apatosaurus.
Me: Yep Apatosaurus.
Rita: Look Leo sweetie.
Leo is amazed.
Eli: Let's go.
We saw that the dinosaurs were scared of something.
Xion: You know what the best part is? The dinosaurs will eventually lay eggs to make baby dinos!
Toad Man: I hope they won't be a handful.
Huntsgirl: Are the dinosaurs scared of something?
Nico: They sure look like it.
We went further into the island and we found a really old and abandoned lab.
Me: That's an abandoned laboratory.
Aerith: Is this how they made the dinosaurs?
Eli: Yep but to Dr. Allen Grant, this is how you play God.
Me: And play with fire.
Laney: Dangerous place.
Nico: It's hard to imagine that they brought the dinosaurs back to life after 66 million years of extinction.
Naruto: No kidding.
Lana: It was so cool seeing them when we were on Isla Nublar the first time.
Lola: It sure was.
We then heard a voice.
?: There we go. Time to create a new creature.
Eli: You hear that?
Aerith: Yeah someone is here.
Sonic: Uh oh. I know that voice. It's familiar.
Eli: It sounded like... Eggman!
Maria: Eggman?
Me: Dr. Eggman? You mean like Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik?
Nico: But I thought we killed him?
Me: Actually he got himself blown up. But this must be a different Dr. Robotnik.
Nico: Oh.
Eli: Eggman is your cousin Ivo.
Maria Robotnik: Oh my!
Me: I didn't know that.
Eli: But why is he on Isla Sorna?
Me: Lets find out.
We go into a big room and we saw DR. EGGMAN and he was creating a new creature.
Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik is the main antagonist of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise of platform games by Sega. He is a mad genius who is bent on world domination, and the arch-nemesis of Sonic the Hedgehog and his best friend, Tails. In other appearances he was one of the four tritagonists (alongside Sonic, Amy and Rouge) of Shadow the Hedgehog, and the anti-heroic tritagonist of Sonic Rivals and its sequel. Over the years, his characterization has switched between him being portrayed as a serious threat, a more comedic and goofy character, an anti-hero, or a mix of all. In later years, he has notably become more evil and unhinged as his hatred of Sonic the Hedgehog eventually took him over and began driving him to want to destroy everything in the entire world, unlike his old hegemonic self.
In the Japanese version, he was voiced by Masaharu Satō in SegaSonic the Hedgehog, the late Chikao Ōtsuka between 1998 until his passing in January 15, 2015, and by Kotaro Nakamura since 2016.
In the English version, he was voiced by the late Deem Bristow between 1998 and 2004 until his passing in the latter year and is currently voiced by Mike Pollock since 2005, who also voiced the Garbageman in the 2003 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TV series.
In the 2020 Sonic the Hedgehog live-action film, he was portrayed by Jim Carrey, who also played the Mask, the Cable Guy, the Grinch, the Riddler, and Count Olaf.
Originally known exclusively as Dr. Ivo Robotnik in the localizations outside of Japan, Dr. Eggman did not have much of a story going for him. In the first game, he was trying to conquer South Island and create his industrial paradise known as Eggmanland and was eventually thwarted by Sonic the Hedgehog himself.
In the second game of the main Genesis series, Sonic's friend Miles "Tails" Prowler joins the blue hedgehog to stop Robotnik, who has conquered West Island. Sonic eventually defeats Doctor Robotnik in a skirmish on the doctor's iconic space station dubbed the "Death Egg". In GameGear version of Sonic the Hedgehog 2, the good doctor takes Tails for ransom, asking for 6 Chaos Emeralds in return.
In Sonic CD, Doctor Eggman arrives in a world with seven gems that can control time. Planning, he created a robotic version of Sonic, dubbed Metal Sonic to keep him busy.
In the third game of the main series, after being damaged by Sonic, Eggman's space station, the Death Egg, started falling out of orbit. It lands on a floating island known as Angel Island. Here he meets Knuckles the Echidna, the last member of his tribe, who was responsible for guarding Master Emerald, which kept the island levitating. Eggman tricks Knuckles into believing that Sonic would come to steal his emerald, and so makes him Sonic's enemy.
In Sonic and Knuckles expansion, after once again being damaged, the Death Egg falls onto Angel Island once again, and lands in a crater. As Doctor Robotnik prepares his Death Egg for a new launch, he drops a bomb on Knuckles, which infuriates him and sends on a search for Sonic.
The complete Sonic 3 & Knuckles ends with the heroes destroying Eggman's robotic creations on the Death Egg and taking Master Emerald back from Robotnik during the Doomsday event.
Eggman has appeared as the main villain of nearly every other earlier Sonic title, such as SegaSonic the Hedgehog, Knuckles' Chaotix, Sonic Chaos, Sonic Triple Trouble, Sonic Labyrinth, Sonic the Fighters, Sonic 3D Blast, and Sonic R, with Sonic defeating Eggman at the end of each except SegaSonic the Hedgehog (in which there is no boss battle), Knuckles' Chaotix (in which Knuckles and his team fights him), and Sonic Labyrinth (in which one of Robotnik's creations is the final boss).
In Sonic Labyrinth, Eggman manages to sneak up to Sonic while he was sleeping and replaces his shoes with Slowdown shoes, ignoring the fact that he could have just destroyed Sonic right there.
In Sonic Advance, Eggman captures several of the animal population and has turned them into robots. Sonic and co. team up and head after Eggman to stop him from taking over the world. Sonic and his friends defeat Eggman in six zones and he flees as he releases a capsule of captured animals. In the fifth zone, he uses a robotic version of Knuckles to defeat Sonic and his friends, but they manage to defeat him. Sonic and his friends follow Eggman up into space by a rocket and confront him. Eggman tries to defeat Sonic and his friends with his machines, to no avail. Sonic turns into Super Sonic and chases Eggman, while Eggman throws balls at him until he manages to destroy his robot and return to Earth a few days later.
Later Games
Sonic Adventure games reveal some parts of Robotnik's backstory and unite the use of his alias "Eggman" (in English versions of Sonic Adventure) and his surname "Robotnik" (Sonic Adventure 2 features the first official appearance of the name "Robotnik" in Japanese versions). Sonic Adventure 2 reveals that Eggman's cousin Maria and grandfather Professor Gerald Robotnik (who was Ivo's hero and idol) were killed by the government's agents. That act was shocking for Ivo Robotnik, turning him into the terrorist, trying to destroy the government and create his own ideal Eggman Empire (and, in later games, the industrial Eggmanland).
Sonic Heroes
Metal Sonic, now known as Neo Metal Sonic, rebels against Dr. Eggman and locks him aboard his own flagship. In the meantime, Metal Sonic impersonates the doctor, fighting the heroes and gathering data to upgrade his battle capabilities. The real Doctor Eggman with his voice secretly high-pitched as a cover coordinates Team Chaotix and waits for the detectives to free him and later unites all of the teams to fight Neo Metal Sonic, also reminding them about the power of Chaos Emeralds. After Neo Metal Sonic was defeated and reverted to his original form, Eggman attempts to sneak away from paying Vector, only to spotted by him, forcing him to run away from the now angry Team Chaotix.
Shadow the Hedgehog
Eggman is the secondary antagonist and the Eggman Empire is one of the factions which Shadow the Hedgehog can ally himself with. Dr. Robotnik can either give missions to the hedgehog or fight him as a boss. Robotnik's forces take part in defending the planet from Black Doom's alien army and the doctor himself ends cheering on the protagonist in the canonical "Last Story" ending. During the final boss (if the player continues fighting for 8–10 minutes), Eggman reveals to everyone, including Shadow, that the Shadow they've been working with since Sonic Heroes is indeed the real and original Shadow. After Black Doom is defeated, Eggman tries to go take the Chaos Emeralds, only to be chased by Knuckles.
Sonic Riders
Eggman is the main antagonist and searches for the treasure in Babylon Garden, getting the Babylon Rogues to win the Chaos Emeralds for him, however, is disappointed at the treasure being a carpet (unaware that it was a magic carpet). In Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, he attempts to use MeteorTech robots and Arks of the Cosmos to take over the world, but they turn on him and are destroyed by Sonic. In Sonic Free Riders, he disguises himself as "King Doc" (also called himself "King Doc of Toreggmania") and hosts a Grand Prix, having reprogrammed Metal Sonic to race for him and collect data from Sonic, Amy, Shadow, and Jet's teams, however, Metal Sonic betrays him yet again and collects the data for himself, but loses the last race to Sonic.
Sonic RushEdit
Eggman teams up with, seemingly, his "counterpart" from the Sol Dimension, Dr. Eggman Nega, to create an Eggmanland beyond all dimensions by abusing the Chaos Emeralds and Sol Emeralds, however, they are defeated by Sonic and Blaze. In Sonic Rush Adventure, they team up again, this time in the Sol Dimension, creating Captain Whisker to find the Jeweled Scepter for them so they can use it to awaken the Power of Stars. After Whisker is destroyed, they steal it themselves but are defeated by Sonic and Blaze. Nega tries to use "Planet-Buster Laser" to undo the creation, but is interrupted by Marine the Racoon and ends up destroying their robotic Egg Wizard. Eggman survives and soon returns to the Chaos dimension.
Sonic Rivals
Eggman is imprisoned in a card by Dr. Eggman Nega, who is revealed to be Ivo Robotnik's descendant from 200 years in the future, who hates the good doctor for disrupting their line of brilliant scientists with his failures and wants him removed from the timeline. However, Eggman is released by Shadow and Silver and helps them get to Nega's base. In Sonic Rivals 2, he reprograms Metal Sonic as a mindless servant and has him, team, up with Shadow to stop Eggman Nega from releasing the Ifrit and destroying the world.
Sonic Unleashed
Eggman is one of the main antagonists. He awakens Dark Gaia in an attempt to take over the world and defeat Sonic. After he is defeated by Sonic and puts Dark Gaia back together, he is knocked into the distance by Dark Gaia, who will not take orders from him. He survives, however, and is last seen chasing his robot assistant Orbot into the distance for calling him a loser. The most pathetic loser in all the world, whose past efforts were utterly wasted.
Sonic Colors
Dr. Eggman is again the main antagonist and has opened an intergalactic amusement park pretending to have redeemed himself, however, he was harvesting thousands of aliens called Wisps for use in the creation of a mind-control device which he planned on using to take control over the entire universe. When it fails, Eggman (in anger) finally snaps and decides to focus completely on killing Sonic, and attacks him with the Egg Nega Wisp (also known as Nega Wisp Armor). After his defeat, he is left in the middle of space with his robot assistants Orbot and Cubot to move his Eggmobile. This appearance has marked the first time in a 3D Sonic game to feature Eggman as the final boss.
Sonic the Hedgehog 4
In Episode I, which chronologically takes place after Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles, Doctor Robotnik starts a new scheme and improves on some of his earlier creations to stand a better chance against Sonic. However, this does not slow the hedgehog down and he eventually defeats Eggman during a showdown aboard the E.G.G. Station. In Episode II, it shows that the good doctor is not finished yet and begins the construction of his Death Egg Mark II around Little Planet. Sonic and his pal Tails chase Eggman across various locations before making their way onto the Death Egg Mark II itself. Although Robotnik had Metal Sonic by his side, he was ultimately defeated again by the heroes at the heart of the Death Egg.
Sonic Generations
In a surprise reverse twist from past 3D games, Classic and Modern Dr. "Eggman" Robotnik is not only the main antagonists but the final bosses of Sonic Generations. Eggman finds a monstrous, supernatural entity, that he converts into a cybernetic organism, called the Time Eater, which he uses in an attempt to alter time and erase his previous defeats. He kidnaps and teams up with his past self from Sonic the Hedgehog 2, however, both Eggman's are defeated, destroying the Time Eater in the process, resulting in them being trapped in limbo, unable to escape. During this, they realize they will never beat Sonic, and plan to get a teaching degree if they ever get out.
Sonic Lost World
Eggman somehow escapes limbo (and does not take up a teaching degree) and tries to harness the power of the Deadly Six to take over the world, using a magic conch to torture them into submission, but they rebel against him since Sonic took Eggman's conch and kicked it into the distance, forcing him and Sonic to work together to defeat them. After the Deadly Six are defeated, Eggman (who had faked his death during his alliance with Sonic to power a machine) turns on Sonic revealing he had been using him to defeat (and possibly kill) the Deadly Six, effectively becoming the true main antagonist. He is defeated by Sonic shortly after, and falls off the Lost Hex, seemingly to his death (though neither Sonic nor Tails care, this may be because they knew where he would land). It is revealed in the end that he survived by falling into soft dirt but lost half his mustache due to a rabbit mistaking it for a carrot stalk while he was unconscious.
Sonic Forces
After somehow obtaining a mysterious and powerful gemstone known as the Phantom Ruby, Doctor Eggman began plans to make his biggest bid for world domination yet. Fueled by his hatred for Sonic the Hedgehog, Eggman incorporated the Phantom Ruby's power into a disgraced squad leader and eventually converted him into his latest weapon; the enigmatic warlord known as Infinite.
When his preparations were complete, Eggman commenced a worldwide assault and was soon confronted by Sonic and Tails. The doctor summons Infinite and duplicates of Sonic's rivals to battle the blue hedgehog and seemingly succeed in destroying him. With Sonic finally gone, Eggman continued his invasion for six months with great success. Conquering 99% percent of the world with the remaining 1% still resisting his forces. While Eggman gave his enemies three more days to prepare for a final confrontation, The Resistance fought to weaken the Phantom Ruby's power, which was presumably being energized by the rebuilt Death Egg orbiting around the planet.
The Resistance eventually achieved in destroying the Death Egg with the help of Sonic the Hedgehog (who was revealed to be alive and well), a version of Sonic from an alternate dimension, and a remarkable recruit usually referred to as the "Rookie". Unfortunately, a backup generator is hidden under Metropolis managed to give the Phantom Ruby enough power for Eggman to have Infinite conjured up sun and throw it at his enemies. Not only destroying the Resistance but also all other opposition on the planet's surface. However, the Rookie used a Phantom Ruby Prototype he/she found to make the sun disappear, saving their allies and making Eggman retreat to his base.
As the heroes tackled the dangers of his base, Doctor Eggman played his trump card by installing the Phantom Ruby into a Death Egg Robot which empowers (or drains) the ruby so much that it overclocks, making the robot even more powerful than Infinite. Despite all its power however, the robot was destroyed by the teamwork of both Sonic counterparts and the Rookie, thus foiling Doctor Eggman's plans and releasing his gripping hold on the world.
In Cartoons
There have been five animated TV series featuring Dr. Robotnik. The first was Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog where he was voiced by Long John Baldry. Doctor Robotnik was the series' main antagonist, being portrayed as a villain who sought to rule the planet Mobius for no reason other than the fact that he appeared to be motivated by the act of being evil. While the threat he posed to Sonic the Hedgehog and Mobius varied from episode to episode, he was generally portrayed as incompetent and immature, with a tendency to mistreat his dimwitted Badnik sidekicks Scratch and Grounder, and, many times when Sonic foils his plans, utter the catchphrase "I hate that hedgehog!". The mannerisms and catchphrases of his television counterpart have become highly memetic. In 2 certain episodes of the entire series, he has achieved two alternate forms with superpowers, first was a Superman-esque supervillain called "Super Robotnik", and second was a muscular god-like giant known as "Supreme High Robotnik". In the animated series Sonic the Hedgehog, Jim Cummings voiced Dr. Robotnik (whose real name was "Julian", which was original to the Sonic the Hedgehog series). This version of Dr. Robotnik was initially portrayed as a fearsome dictator, darker and more serious than his much sillier counterpart in Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, being the only incarnation to be Pure Evil. Doctor Robotnik rules over his evil industrial city known as Robotropolis, and he is accompanied and joined by his two most favored allies, his robotic pet Cluck who is the only one thing he treats with compassion, and his unscrupulous nephew Snively who desires power and his uncle's downfall. As season 2 was more lighthearted than season 1, Robotnik was later depicted as an evil but incompetent villain rather than the fierce, dangerous, and intimidating foe he was originally shown to be.
Sonic Underground featured Robotnik in a style similar to the previous Sonic the Hedgehog animated series, but much more lightheartedly; he maintains less control and he is far more bumbling. He was voiced by Gary Chalk.
In the 2-episode OVA Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie, Dr. Eggman tells Sonic that he has been banished from Robotropolis (Eggmanland in the Japanese release) by a metallic doppelgänger of himself called Metal Robotnik (Black Eggman in the Japanese release). It is later revealed that the mecha was piloted by Eggman himself, in a scheme to lure Sonic into his base and copy his DNA for his new Hyper Metal Sonic robot. Eggman was voiced by the late Junpei Takiguchi in the Japanese version, and by Edwin Neal in the English dub.
In Sonic X, Doctor Eggman (which he is usually referred to in this series, though his real last name in-universe is Robotnik as in the games), along with other Sonic characters, including Sonic himself, are accidentally transported from their own world (Mobius) to Earth. In the final season, Eggman returns to his universe and reluctantly joins forces with Sonic and his friends to fight the new menace called the Metarex before continuing to try building his own evil empire in his attempts to achieve world domination. This incarnation is voiced by Chikao Ōtsuka in the Japanese version, and by Mike Pollock in the English version.
Dr. Eggman appears as the primary antagonist of the Sonic Boom animated series, with Mike Pollock reprising his voice role. Eggman's physical appearance was the most drastically changed of the cast, now appearing to have a buff upper body and wearing a militaristic uniform, as well as having a fully brown and smoother mustache. He also appears to be less intelligent and much more childish than his mainstream counterpart.
Doctor Eggman also makes a brief appearance in the anime Hi sCoool! SeHa Girl. In the middle of the Sega Hard Girls' first exam in Border Break, Eggman hacks into the game world and begins to wreak havoc until Sonic appears to aid the girls in stopping him.
In Comics
When the first Sonic the Hedgehog title was released in 1991, Sega of America developed an origin for Sonic the Hedgehog and Dr. Robotnik which diverged from the back-stories created in Japan by Sonic Team. In this back-story, set on the planet Mobius, Dr. Ivo Robotnik was originally a benevolent scientist named Dr. Ovi Kintobor ("Ivo Robotnik" with the names spelt backwards; also, "ovi" is the Latin prefix meaning "egg"), a friend to Sonic who helped to develop the hedgehog's super-speed. In the Sonic the Comic, Kintobor was merged with a rotten egg and transformed into Dr. Robotnik after tripping over a cable with a rotten egg in his hand and suffering a severe electric shock. The result created Dr. Ivo Robotnik, who instantly became the opposite of the good Dr. Kintobor and would occasionally use the word "egg" in some words, with an example being "eggsactly".
In the United States, a different storyline was featured in a 14-page promotional comic book written by Francis Mao and designed to promote the game. The origin story was also adopted by Sega Europe, featuring in British publications such as the book Stay Sonic and later the comic book series Sonic the Comic, which was published from 1993 until 2002. In Sonic the Comic, Dr. Robotnik was the dictatorial ruler of planet Mobius for most of the comic's first 100 issues, while Sonic also had access to an AI computer program based on the personality of Dr. Kintobor. Initially, Robotnik's appearance in Sonic the Comic matched that of the video games, but from issue 22 onwards the comic adopted his design from the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog cartoon show.
Also in 1993, Archie Comics began publishing its Sonic the Hedgehog comic book. The series is in a sense, a very loose continuation of ABC's Sonic the Hedgehog animated cartoon; as well as a mad scientist, Robotnik is portrayed as an oppressive and magisterial dictator who took control of Sonic's hometown during a coup d'etat. In recent years, the plot of the comic has changed to incorporate elements from the video games, with Robotnik being replaced by his more traditional videogame counterpart. Eventually, legal disputes between Archie and former writers led to the comic series receiving a soft reboot during a crossover arc with Archie's Mega Man comics called When Worlds Collide. In this story, Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik teams up with Mega Man's archenemy Dr. Albert W. Wily and unleashes a phenomenon called the Super Genesis Wave that can permanently alter the reality of their worlds. Sonic tries to use the wave to revert changes the villains made to his world but Eggman attacks him while doing so and causes their world's history to been rewritten. From issue 252 onward, the comic series takes place in a new continuity that follows the video game lore more closely but retains comic exclusive elements and characters from the animated cartoon.
In Movies
Youtube actor DJ Hazard portrayed Dr. Robotnik in the 2013 short fan-film Sonic by Eddie Lebron. This version is more in line with his darker SatAM counterpart, being an unsympathetic, ruthless, cold, and brutal tyrant and holding a disgust towards Mobians, or "South Islanders", as they are called in the fan film. Parallel to SatAM and Archie Comics, he started off as Dr. Julian Kintobor, before deciding to become a totalitarian dictator by establishing his Eggman Empire and set out to conquer all of Mobius.
Eggman makes a cameo in Disney's Wreck-it Ralph and its sequel as a member of a villain's support group called Bad-Anon. Here he does not have a speaking role.
Eggman/Robotnik appears as the main villain of the 2020 Sonic the Hedgehog film, portrayed by actor Jim Carrey. This version of the character is depicted as an egocentric scientist hired by the government to help them capture and study Sonic the Hedgehog, who secretly plots to harness Sonic's power for himself to take over the world. It is also revealed that he even helped the US Government stop several coups in the Middle East.
Eggman: It's alive!
We crawled onto the grates of the walls and we saw him.
Eli: Uh oh.
Eggman a created a hybrid creature called a Paradeinonychus which was half Parasaurolophus and half Deinonychus.
They gasped in sheer horror!
Maria: What is that thing?
Eli: A hybrid creature.
Me: It looks like it's half Parasaurolophus and half Deinonychus.
Eggman: Excellent soon the world will be mine and I will have my own army of Hybrid dinosaurs.
Me: This is not good.
It scared Lily as she was holding Lincoln while Leo was holding onto Lucy.
Soundwave: Eggman detected!
Eggman: Who's there?!
Maria: It's us cousin.
Xion: Long time no see, Eggman!
Eggman: (sighs) And you heroes are back to calling me by that nickname.
Me: It's mutual.
Maria Robotnik: Nice to see you cousin.
Eggman: So it's true then. I'm amazed you survived and what an unexpected surprise and J.D., Eli we meet again.
Me: I never even met you before. Your Mobius counterpart yes but not you here on Earth. And yes it is true about Eli saving Maria.
Maria: Yeah.
Eggman: I see. But can he save her from what you see here?
The Paradeinonychus is drooling and came out a Velocirapteryx.
Me: Whoa! Half Velociraptor half Archaeopteryx!
Vince: Disgusting creature!
Fu: Horrible!
Eli: RUN!
We ran fast!
Eggman: GET THEM!
They came after us and we found a herd of Stegosaurs and Corythosaurus.
Eli: Quickly into the herd!
We ran fast and the two hybrids backed away from the Stegosaurus tails. They ran off.
Lori: That was literally close.
Leo was crying scared.
Me: Oh Leo.
Rita: Shh it's okay sweetie.
Eli: The real dinosaurs amazed Leo but those hybrids terrified him.
Me: Those hybrids are freaks of nature! Who does Eggman think he is? Doctor Frankenstein?
Eli: Maybe.
Nico: This is just like what we saw in Jurassic World where they made the Indominus Rex and that was a terrible abomination.
A baby Stegosaurus look at the scarred Leo with curiosity and Leo stop crying.
Lori: Aww
Eli: Who knows how many hybrids Dr. Eggman made?
Me: I know. But it could be a lot of them and we dealt with many mad scientists before.
John Bolton: Yeah and it's not pretty.
Trudy Bolton: Yeah.
Me: We must keep moving.
Eli: Okay.
We stumble upon a herd of Mamenchisaurus.
Me: Wow! Mamenchisaurus.
Lola: Wow!
Lisa: Amazing and hugely magnificent specimens.
Eli: Sauropods from China.
Lana: 75 million years ago they lived.
Eli: Actually they live in the Jurassic period.
Lana: Oh.
Kate Lloyd: But they are absolutely amazing.
We suddenly noticed a member of the herd with a nasty bite mark on it as it collapsed.
Me: Whoa!
It turns out there's another hybrid with them called SpinoRex.
James: Whoa! Half Spinosaurus, half Tyrannosaurus! The 2 meanest dinosaurs ever known over the course of 112 million years.
Nico: Wicked Combination!
Carol: And awful too.
Eli pulls out Krystal's staff and he throw it like a spear at it's face. It hit it but not deep enough and the SpinoRex was angry now.
Me: Whoa! Nice throw. But I think you made it angry.
The staff fell off and Eli is ready to fight the Spinorex. But it heard a roar that is really a call to return as the SpinoRex gives out a hateful roar at Eli and leaves.
Lana: Where is it going?
Eli: There must be a Alpha hybrid.
Me: Maybe.
Then came a pack of Velociraptors
Me: Velociraptors. Time to put our raptor taming to the test guys.
The leader wanted Eli to come to him.
Eli: Wait you wanna talk to me?
The leader nodded.
Me: Wow. What's he saying?
Eli: He's saying there's been strange things happening on their island cause of those dinosaurs that they have never seen before.
Lucy Loud: Those hybrids created by Eggman.
Laney: Yeah.
Maria Robotnik: They are trying to kill us.
Rita: And scared our babies!
Eli: The leader says they must put a stop to those monsters.
Nico: I agree. That's gonna be easier said than done.
Eli: Then we must join together to stop them.
The leader nodded yes.
Me: Looks like we've been given our next adventure.
Lola: But Eggman really knew what he was doing.
Me: We're gonna need some reinforcements for this.
Edwayl: (Breton Accent) I agree lads. We have to help the dinosaurs.
Aylene C.: I agree. Dinosaurs are amazing creatures.
Littlefoot: Agreed.
Eli: The leader says we need Buck the Tyrannosaurus Rex to know about this.
Me: Okay. But also we'll need a lot of help from his friends that he knows.
Eli: He's saying there's a raptor out there that's faster than a regular raptor. So he's telling us to be careful.
Me: Right.
Lincoln: We better keep our eyes open.
Eli: Okay. See if you and your pack can find any dinosaurs to help us.
The leader nodded as he and his gang were off until they found the T-Rex family.
Me: Wow.
Eli: There they are.
Me: Yeah.
Maria Robotnik: Eli are they?
Eli: Yep. Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Aerith: This is different from seeing a T-Rex in books.
Me: They were the meanest dinosaurs ever known from 67 million years ago.
We notice the T-Rex Doe is laying eggs.
Me: Wow.
Eli: Junior is going to be a big brother.
James: Yep.
The T-Rex Buck notice us and goes on the defensive roar.
Nunnally: Eep!
Me: Uh oh.
Eli: Protective daddy I see.
Me: No doubt.
Suddenly something caught T-Rex Buck's attention from be hind the gang and it was SpinoRex.
Me: It's that Spinorex from before!
Eli: Scatter!
We did as the SpinoRex charged at the T-Rex family.
Me: Oh no you don't!
I fired an energy blast at the ground in front of it and the blast exploded.
KRABBOOOOOOMMMM!
It got scared from the explosion.
While the Tyrannosaurus Doe protected Junior and the eggs, the T-Rex Buck bites SpinoRex on the neck and throws it to the other side until two more hybrids show up. One called Giganototyrannus and the other is Ankylotyrannus.
Nico: Whoa! Half Gigantosaurus half Tyrannosaurus rex and the other is half Ankylosaurus half Tyrannosaurus Rex!
Buck the Tyrannosaurus Rex smash both of them with his tail as the SpinoRex gets up with an angry roar.
Me: Whoa! He's angry now!
Eli throws Krystal's staff right at SpinoRex's face and he grabbed a big rock and smashed the dinosaur mutant's leg in the back with it.
CRUNCH!
It roared in excruciating pain!
Lincoln: OOOHHH! That's gonna hurt!
Clyde: Big time!
Lori: Literally!
Me: OUCH!
SpinoRex screech in pain as Ankylotyrannus tried to kill Junior and the eggs. But the T-Rex Doe bits it's snout and tears it off.
Lincoln: EEEEWWWWW!
Me: EEEEWWWWW!
Then the T-Rex Buck bone crushed Giganototyrannus's neck with his jaws and tears it's head off.
Laney: Whoa!
Lori: Does it feel like the show Primal?
Aylene: It sure does.
Littlefoot: No kidding.
SpinoRex snapped it's leg and fixed it and it roared at Eli and drools.
James: Yep.
Eli smash it's face with a big rock and then jumps on Spinorex and tear off it's tooth.
Carol: Ouch!
Lincoln: Is it just me or does Eli starting to act like Spear?
Me: It's not just you Lincoln. He has learned so much from my Caveman self. It's awesome.
Eli started stabbing it's scared face with it's own tooth ballistically. As the T-Rex Buck holds the hybrid with his jaws, Eli throws Krystal's staff right at SpinoRex's heart, Skewering it! The Spinorex fell over dead.
Eli: Phew!
Eli was covered in blood.
Me: WHOA! That was intense!
Nico: It sure was but awesome job!
Aerith: Oh my baby! (Hugs him.)
Me: He's covered in blood.
Lori: Worse than my shoes covered in blood when Clyde gets a nose bleed.
Eli: I didn't know I had it in me
Me: None of us did.
Eli: Sorry.
Me: No worries. Lets head to a river a wash up.
We go to a river to wash off the blood. We were clean. Buck the T-Rex came to them.
Bobby: Oh boy.
Eli: You Wanna know what those Dinosaurs we're that you have never seen before?
T-Rex Buck nodded yes.
Me: Well it's weird.
Aylene: Very strange.
Eli: They're hybrids created by a mad scientist named Eggman as his army for world domination.
Lori: Literally.
Buck nodded "I see".
Me: And we have to stop him.
Eli: Buck the T-Rex says he'll help too.
Me: Awesome.
Leo looked at the eggs.
Leni: Aww.
Buck the T-Rex looks close at Leo and he touches his scaly face.
Me: Aww.
Lincoln picks up Leo while Eli got on Buck the T-Rex and Buck roared ferociously.
Me: Whoa!
Aerith: That's my boy.
Nico: Awesome!
Kanaloa: So cool!
Buck the T-Rex joined us and we walked on until we come to the fence where the Spinosaurus broke through in the movie Jurassic Park III.
Me: Whoa! This is the Spinosaurus habitat like in Jurassic Park III.
Eli: Yeah.
Plus there were Chasmosaurus grazing with Parasaurolophus.
Me: Chasmosaurus and Parasaurolophus.
Laney: So awesome.
Aylene C.: One lived 83 Million years ago and the other lived 76 million years ago.
Suddenly a huge roar scared the herd away.
Simon Sharp: Uh oh.
Lynn Sr: What was that?
Nico: It's huge whatever it is.
Sam S.L.: Is it another T-Rex like Buck?
Eli: I don't think so. It sounds bigger!
Me: Yeah and more ferocious. I think it's Spinosaurus.
And then out came Spinosaurus!
Me: Spinosaurus. Lived 112 million years ago in Egypt.
Clyde: I don't remember that on Ingen's list.
Eli: That's because he was never on their list.
Me: Spinosaurus was the largest carnivorous dinosaur that ever walked the Earth.
Eli: The first Pharaoh of Egypt.
Me: Yep. Its fossils were discovered in Egypt back in 1912.
The herd runs.
James (Pokemon): Oh man.
Eli: Let's keep going while he's distracted by the herd.
Me: Right.
Lola: What is that huge sail on its back for?
Me: Thermoregulation. It absorbs the suns light to warm its blood. It's like how the Dimetrodon did back over 275 million years ago.
Later we found a dead apatosaurus with huge claw marks on it but it wasn't eaten.
Me: Whoa!
Lucy: Gasp!
Aylene: Don't look Littlefoot.
Aylene covered his eyes.
Eli: I'm guessing it must be the hybrid alpha.
Me: Maybe. These claw marks are huge.
Nico: What could make claw marks this size?
Buck the T-Rex then took this opportunity to eat the carcass to keep up his strength.
Lori: Ew!
Eli: Better keep his strength up cause who knows what kind of hybrid dinosaurs are out there that Eggman cooked up.
Me: Yeah.
But suddenly out came a huge tongue that was hitting the tree next to Dana.
SPLAT!
Dana was shuddering in grossness as the tongue was licking her back. It grabbed her leg and lifted her.
Dana: WHOA! HELP!
Eli: I got you!
Eli grabbed her arm and I grabbed the other arm until the tongue only pull off her boot.
POP!
We fell to the ground and we saw that the tongue belonged to another hybrid called Compstegnathus.
Me: Whoa! Half Compsognathus half Stegosaurus.
Eli: And half African tree frog!
Me: Ugly! So 1 third of those!
Lana: Wicked cool!
It threw away Dana's boot and another Hybrid called Lycaraptor appeared.
Me: Whoa! Part wolf part velociraptor.
Eli: No it's a mixture with Lycaenops, Smilidon, Liger (Lion+Tiger), Cheetah, and Velociraptor.
Me: Wow! Unusual combination.
Lola: That is a freak of nature!
And came out a Pachytroodon.
Me: WHOA! That one is mondo freaky! Part Pachycephalosaurus, Troodon, Brown hyena, Striped hyena and Raccoon. Mondo weird combination.
Eli: Get ready!
But then we heard another roar and we felt rumbling and it was an OMNICERATOPS! Charging at us! We got out of the way and saw it smash into the Troodon hybrid and send it flying.
Me: Wow! It's a hybrid of all the Ceratopsian dinosaurs: Titanoceratops, Styracosaurus, Elginia, Ankole Watusi, Texas longhorn, Eotriceratops, Dracorex, Stygimoloch, Pachycephlosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Centrosaurus, and Triceratops.
Laney: Let me handle this.
Laney went up to it and she had a fern leaf in her hands and she gave it to the hybrid. It ate it and became Laney's friend.
Eli: Wow. Good work Laney.
Then Troodon hybrid came back and then an Ankylosaurus appeared.
Me: An Ankylosaurus! 83 million years ago.
The Spinosaurus, Triceratops and Ankylosaurus teamed up but with Buck the T-Rex helping out against the monster.
Lincoln: EPIC DINO TEAM WORK!
Me: YEAH!
Ankylosaurus smash the thigh while Triceratops stabs the creature's stomach and Buck the T-Rex finish it off with a bite at the neck.
Me: YEAH!
Lisa: So when something that's a freak of nature is set lose, natural animals join to stop it.
Me: Yep.
Fluttershy then used her stare and scared the Compstegnathus and tamed it.
Fluttershy: Don't ever cause trouble to your fellow dinosaurs ever again! Got It!?
The dinosaur hybrid nodded.
The Velociraptors were having the Troodon Hybrid for lunch. The next stop we were headed to was the bird cage.
Luan: Oh boy.
Eli: Buck says he'll meet us at the bottom.
Me: Okay.
A Pteranodon came.
Me: Pteranodon. 89 million years ago.
Along with Dimorphodon and Tapejara.
Me: Dimorphodon and Tapejara. One lived 201 million years ago and the other lived 112 million years ago.
Eli: I bet you pterosaurs wanna know what's going on am I right?
The Pteranodon nodded "yes" and Eli explained.
Lori: Man it's like Eli is the Dinosaur Whisperer.
Me: Yeah. Amazing.
Eli: So there are hybrids here on your island.
Leni: Totes!
Me: Yeah!
Suddenly from the sky there were two pterosaur hybrids one called Ankyloranodon and the other called Pteranoraptor and both were out for blood.
Me: Whoa! Half Pteranodon and half Ankylosaurus and half Pteranodon and half Velociraptor.
Eli gets on a Pteranodon.
Me: Lets fly!
Most of us flew into the air and Lincoln gets on a Tapejara while I got on a Quetzelcoatlus. The Ankylotanodon tries to hit us with it's club tail. But we dodged it. Pteranoraptor try to slash us with it's claws. I fired a blast of lightning at the hybrid and burned it all over. Eli jumped and grabs a hold of the Ankyloranodon's club tail while the Pteranodon stabs the hybrid with her beak, Killing the creature. Eli then slashed the hybrids head off and Eli land in Aerith's arms.
Aerith: Gotcha.
Eli: Just like when I was 3?
Me: He sure has awesome moves.
J.D. 3: He sure does.
We head to the exit at the bottom. As we arrived, Buck the T-Rex it waiting for us.
Me: We made it!
The pterosaurs exit out too.
Me: Be free!
Eli: Let's follow the river.
We all follow the river and it was gonna be a big walk until they encounter a Ceratosaurus.
Me: Ceratosaurus! 161 million years ago.
But we saw one that was wounded and he was limping with slash marks on his thigh.
Me: Whoa he's hurt!
Eli went went over to him and he bandaged him
Me: Nice job.
The Ceratosaurus was forever grateful to Eli.
Eli: I'm guessing you encountered a hybrid?
The Ceratosaurus nodded.
Eli: He's saying it came out of the water and was killing for sport.
We gasped.
Eli: You get some rest and we'll check it out.
The Ceratosaurus Nodded.
Me: Let's go.
We keep going and searched when suddenly a sail was popping out of the water.
Leni: SHARK!
Me: Wait. That's not a shark!
It was Spinosaurus.
Me: Spinosaurus!
But they see wounds on his sail, body and thigh.
Me: Its wounded.
Popping out from the water was a Spinocheirus and a Suchoraptor.
Me: Whoa! Part Spinosaurus, Deinocheirus, Therizinosaurus, Blue Tongued Skink and Dimetrodon and Part Suchomimus and Velociraptor. Mondo freaky!
Eli: No the green one is a mix of Spinosaurus, Suchosaurus, Baryonyx, Suchomimus and Velociraptor.
Me: Freakier combination.
Eli: That explains why Spinosaurus got hurt.
Laney: Yeah!
While the Spinosaurus goes to shore and retreats.
Me: Lets take these monstrosities down!
Lynn fired waves and globs of lava and burned the Spinoscheirus all over with incredibly intense heat and that was when suddenly a Deinosuchus appeared.
Me: Deinosuchus! 145 Million years ago.
The Deinosuchus dragged the monster under the water and ate it. The Suchoraptor was next.
Me: Lets turn this monster into a snake skin wallet!
Lola and Lana: Yeah!
Me: Charge!
Luna: Rock and roll hybrid!
Luna had her axe and water powers ready! But a Parasuchus jumps out and bites the Suchoraptor on the leg.
CHOMP!
As Buck bites it on the neck, Ripping its throat open and the monster falls dead.
Me: Dead.
Bobby: Um guys look.
A shark fin was in the water.
Me: A shark!
But it was actually a Megalodontosaurus!
Nico: Whoa! Half Megalodon and half Heterodontosaurus!
Eli: No. It's part Megalodon, part Giganotosaurus and part T-Rex.
Me: Whoa. Freaky Combination!
Eli: The leader of the two we killed.
Me: Yep.
Eli: Charge!
We charged at the beast.
Lynn: Batter up!
She smashed her bat on it, Which made it mad.
Ronnie Anne: Oh boy.
Deinosuchus and Parasuchus came to help. It was a brutal battle and Buck bites the snout.
CHOMP!
Buck tears it off
RIP!
Eli: That's one leader down.
Me: Yep.
Becky: So a hybrid mix of more one creature with T-Rex are the leaders?
Me: I guess so.
Eli: Oh I forgot. (to Dana) Here's your boot back.
Dana: Thanks Eli! (She puts it back on and hugs Eli.) Thank you.
Eli: Anytime sis.
Aerith: Aww.
Eli: Let's role!
They continue and later in grass field and saw a heard of Stegosaurus with a heard of Edmontosaurus.
Me: Stegosaurus and Edmontosaurus. 163 million years ago for one and 83.6 million years ago for the other.
Darcy: Big ducks.
Me: No they are called Duck-Billed Dinosaurs or Hadrosaurs.
Lisa: Precisely
Eli: Or ornithopods.
Me: Yep.
But then came Velociraptoryx and paradeinonychus.
Me: It's those hybrids we saw before!
Plus they brought Deinonycanis, Dilophospinus and a Stegospinus
Me: Whoa! Half Deinonychus and half Dire Wolf, Half Dilophosaurus and half Spinosaurus and Half Stegosaurus and Half Spinosaurus.
Nico: These guys are terrible abominations!
The herd panic.
Me: Lets get those monstrosities!
Eli did a dinosaur call and the herd all banded together and the Stegosaurus herd readied their tails and we all came with our powers ready.
Eli: CHARGE!
Me: CHARGE!
We all went at them! Lana bites the Paradeinonychus tail.
CRUNCH!
The hybrid creature swings it's tail and Eli slashes it off with his lightsaber and a real Deinonychus finishes it off.
Me: Yeah!
Leni smack the Velociraptoryx with her sandal.
SMACK!
Buck stomps the hybrid, Killing it.
Leni: Phew!
Me:Yeah.
Lincoln: Leni behind you!
Thd Dilophospinus is behind her.
Leni: Uh oh.
Suddenly something spit venom on the hybrid's eyes and it was a Dilophosaurus.
Lola: Yuck!
The Dilophosaurus attacks the hybrid and rips it apart.
Leni: Thank you!
The Dilophosaurus nodded. The Stegosaurus used his spiked tail on the Deinonycanis, Skewering its head.
Eli: And we got Stegospinus left!
Me: Lets get him!
Eli jump on Buck's back.
Me: Lets get them!
Eli: CHARGE!
Me: CHARGE!
We all went at the hybrids, Buck trampled the monster, Pulverized it and tore it's head off and ate it.
Me: Yuck.
Eli: That's nature.
Me: Yep.
Eli: Now to find Eggman.
Me: And deal with him once and for all.
Eli: To the lab!
Johnny Test: That's usually my line!
They ran fast, The pack of Velociraptors join them.
Nico: Yeah!
Along with an Allosaurus.
Me: Cool! Allosaurus! 163 million years ago.
And finally a Carnotaurus.
Me: Yeah! Carnotaurus. 83.5 Million years ago.
Eli: And Allosaurus and Carnotaurus wanna help too?
Both nodded.
Me: Cool!
We saw the lab up ahead.
Eli: There's that lab!
Bobby: And Eggman!
Me: CHARGE!
Eggman has a Tanaconda, Amargospinus, Tyrannops, Pachysaurolophus, and Pachytriceratops.
Me: Whoa! Half Tanystropheus and Green anaconda (Eunectes murinus), half Amargosuchus and Spinosaurus, Half Tyrannosaurus rex and Lycaenops, 1/3 Pachycephalosaurus, Parasaurolophus, and Ankylosaurus, and 1/3 Pachycephalosaurus, Triceratops and a Bengal Tiger. Weird and freaky combinations.
Nico: He is really fucked up.
Eggman: Behold my army!
There's even Spinocharoraptor Rex, Torowuerhocerias, Campephilustroraptor, and a Pachyvenator.
Me: Whoa!
Lincoln: Weird combinations!
Me: Whoa! really Weird combinations!
Laney: Really dangerous!
Nico: These are some of the weirdest combinations I've ever seen.
And they were being lead by a Therizinstegus.
James: Whoa!
Eli: A mix of T-rex, Spinosaurus, Stegosaurus, Therizinosaurus and Velociraptor.
Lincoln: Mega freaky combination.
Me: All freaky combinations!
Eli: CHARGE!
We charged fast and started blasting and slashing the hybrids with the help of real dinosaurs. I managed to tame the Amargospinus and turned it against Eggman. Eli and Laney got on its back. Buck teamed up with an Albertosaurus and a pack of Utahraptor against Therizinstegus. Lola was with them and fired blasts of fire at the hybrid. Next we went to the big lake where a Mosasaurus popped out and eats it. The Hybrid was dinner. Eggman unleashed an ugly and horrifying monstrosity called the CEREBREX!
Me: What the fuck!? What is that!?
Eggman: I give you Cerberex.
Me: Ugly! I've heard of two heads being better than one but this is ridiculous!
Nico: You have really fucked around with mother nature big time.
Eli: He sure has!
Eggman: Along with this.
He unleashed a hybrid called Therizinospinus. But then I unleashed my own secret weapon and a spiked tail skewered the hybrid and it was that of a new hybrid called Kentralasmosaurus! It was half Kentrasaurus and half Elasmosaurus. Dilophosaurus blinded it and the Therizinospinus fell down dead.
Lincoln: Yeah!
Lana: Your hybrid is awesome J.D.
Me: Thanks.
Buck The T-Rex crushed the CerberRex, Splattering its blood and guts all over.
Eggman: Time to bring out the big guns!
The door opens and there is Ultimasaurus.
Me: Whoa! Part Tyrannosaurus rex, Velociraptor, Triceratops, Ankylosaurus, and Stegosaurus.
Eli: And all monster!
Lincoln: Scary!
Laney: Horrifying.
Leo: WWWWWWAAAAA!
Rita: (Comforting him.) Shhh we're here sweetie.
Lynn Sr: Uh oh.
It was T-Rex, Allosaurus, Carnotaurus and a pack of Velociraptors vs Ultimasaurus.
Carol: Whoa!
Eli: EPIC DINO TEAM WORK!
Me: Lets get him!
The battle rages on.
Me: Lets see how you hybrids like this rabid dinosaur! NIGHTMARE STYLE NINJA ART: MASSACRE OF THE RABID SAUROPOD!
I fired a wave of darkness and it formed into the Rabid Zombie Sauropod that was infected with Super Rabies and it mutilated and massacred all the hybrids in one sitting except for my Kentralasmosaurus and the Amargospinus.
While Buck the T-Rex breaks of the ultimasaurus horn that goes for the neck.
Me: Your hybrids are done for.
Eli: Yeah!
The Amargospinus roared in agreement.
Eggman: You fools think my ultimasaurus is the last one think again!
He released a horrible new creature he calls Doomday Rex!
It had 2 heads and 4 arms and was 3 times the size of Tyrannosaurus Rex!
Me: UGLY! Two Heads ARE better than one!
Lincoln: It's huge!
Aerith: That is no dinosaur.
The baby Loud was terrified.
Laney: IT'S A TRUE MONSTER!
Lily: No kidding!
Me: What kind of fucked up world do you live in Eggman!?
Maria: I can't believe you would make atrocities like this cousin!
The Doomsday Rex charges but A herd Brachiosaurus came to help and slashed it with his tail and then a massive heard of Brachiosaurus and Argentinosaurus came! Eli gets on Buck the T-Rex.
Me: Let's go!
The sauropods use their front legs on the Doomsday Rex and smashed its heads in and then Buck bit the creature's arms off. I fired blasts of fire at the creature and burned it all over and Eli slashed it with his sword and lightsaber. Buck tears the throat of the first head while Eli used Krystal's staff to stab the second head's brain, Killing the ugly creature and Buck did a victory roar.
Me: YEAH! Now it's just you and us Eggman! You're not escaping from us this time! Or blowing yourself up.
I formed a force field that prevented him from escaping.
Me: You're going to jail. Killing one of you was plenty.
Sonic: That's right!
Eli: Yeah!
But then Webstor, Vanitas, Atomic Skull, Zs'Skayr, Professor Calamitous and King Hiss then appeared.
Me: Webstor, Vanitas, Atomic Skull, Zs'Skayr, Calamitous and King Hiss.
Eli: Whoa who are they?
Vanitas: Who's the kid?
Eli: My name is Eli Winston Bullock.
Me: It's a really unusual story.
I revealed everything and more.
Vanitas: Whoa! That's intense!
Webstor: It sure is!
King Hiss: We didn't expect that.
Atomic Skull: It's cool of you to join the team.
Eli: It sure is.
Me: The Masters of Evil are our Frenemies and they give us one amazing challenge.
Eli: Wow!
Me: We call them our usual battles.
Webstor: We just want to say that we have nothing to do with Eggman's plans.
Maria Rockell: Really?
King Hiss: We're not stupid enough to unleash an army of hybrid dinosaurs into the world.
Calamitous: And I'm way more smarter then Eggman will ever be.
Eggman: (Offended) HEY!
Me: He does have a point.
?: He sure does.
A figure came out and it was ELECTROVOLT from episode 14 of Turbo!
Electrovolt is an electrical monster, he and Elgar went to down to Earth to destroy the Rangers together. He rode his own motorcycle and was destroyed by Turbo Megazord and Robo Racer.
He seemed to be an old friend of Elgar's, gifting the latter his own new motorcycle as part of their plan.
T.J. Johnson: Electrovolt!
Electrovolt: Been a long time rangers.
Me: I remember you! You and Elgar were sent to destroy the rangers together. But that motorcycle of yours is amazing!
William: I really like how you used a motorcycle.
Electrovolt: Really? Thanks!
Nico: Can you use that in our battle?
Electrovolt: You bet I can.
Me: Lets power up and take them down!
Crag: Come on guys!
Ripping Friends: IT'S RIPPING TIME!
Troy: Time to make you extinct, Eggman!
Megaforce Rangers: Legendary Ranger Mode: Science Platoon Dynaman!
The Megaforce Rangers turned into the Dynaman rangers.
Eli: And watch this.
Eli then transformed and we saw that he had a Super Saiyan Like aura and his hair was now golden yellow and lightning was flickering around him and his eyes were teal color.
Me: WHOA! Eli this is amazing! Your power has increased 10,000-fold!
Goku: Wow! Eli your power is incredible!

We regrouped.
Me: It's over for you Eggman!
Then we went at Eggman and I punched him in the face and kicked him in the face and back and Eli punched him and slashed him all over and blasted him all over with waves of lightning and Nico and Axel fired waves of ice and lightning and Lincoln and Lola and Lana fired waves of lightning, ice and fire and burned him all over the place with incredible fury. Tassanil, Crawsectus, Intress, Arrthoa,, Enre Hep, Laarina, and Chaor punched and blasted and pulverized Eggman and the Megaforce Rangers blasted him all over the place.
The Ripping Friends all punched and pulverized him all over with incredible fury.
Me: Lets hit him with our techniques!
Eli: Lets do it! EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: TYRANNOSAURUS REX!
Eli fired a wave of earth by punching the ground and it formed into the meanest dinosaur that ever lived from 68 million years ago: Tyrannosaurus Rex!
Tyrannosaurus is a genus of coelurosaurian theropod dinosaur. The species Tyrannosaurus rex, often called T. rex or colloquially T-Rex, is one of the most well-represented of the large theropods. Tyrannosaurus lived throughout what is now western North America, on what was then an island continent known as Laramidia. Tyrannosaurus had a much wider range than other tyrannosaurids. Fossils are found in a variety of rock formations dating to the Maastrichtian age of the upper Cretaceous period, 68 to 66 million years ago. It was the last known member of the tyrannosaurids, and among the last non-avian dinosaurs to exist before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
Like other tyrannosaurids, Tyrannosaurus was a bipedal carnivore with a massive skull balanced by a long, heavy tail. Relative to its large and powerful hind limbs, Tyrannosaurus forelimbs were short but unusually powerful for their size and had two clawed digits. The most complete specimen measures up to 12.3 meters (40 feet) in length though T. rex could grow to lengths of over 12.3 m (40 ft), up to 3.66 m (12 ft) tall at the hips, and according to most modern estimates 8.4 metric tons (9.3 short tons) to 14 metric tons (15.4 short tons) in weight. Although other theropods rivaled or exceeded Tyrannosaurus rex in size, it is still among the largest known land predators and is estimated to have exerted the strongest bite force among all terrestrial animals. By far the largest carnivore in its environment, Tyrannosaurus rex was most likely an apex predator, preying upon hadrosaurs, armored herbivores like ceratopsians and ankylosaurs, and possibly sauropods. Some experts have suggested the dinosaur was primarily a scavenger. The question of whether Tyrannosaurus was an apex predator or a pure scavenger was among the longest debates in paleontology. Most paleontologists today accept that Tyrannosaurus was both an active predator and a scavenger.
Hunter: (German Accent) INFERNO STYLE NINJA ART: SPINOSAURUS!
Hunter fired a wave of black fire and it formed into the largest and meanest carnivorous dinosaur that ever lived from 112 million years ago in Egypt: Spinosaurus!
Spinosaurus (meaning "spine lizard") is a genus of spinosaurid dinosaur that lived in what now is North Africa during the upper Albian to upper Turonian stages of the Cretaceous period, about 112 to 93.5 million years ago. This genus was known first from Egyptian remains discovered in 1912 and described by German paleontologist Ernst Stromer in 1915. The original remains were destroyed in World War II, but additional material has come to light in the early 21st century. It is unclear whether one or two species are represented in the fossils reported in the scientific literature. The best known species is S. aegyptiacus from Egypt, although a potential second species, S. maroccanus, has been recovered from Morocco. The contemporary spinosaurid genus Sigilmassasaurus has also been synonymized by some authors with S. aegyptiacus, though other researchers propose it to be a distinct taxon. Another possible junior synonym is Oxalaia from the Alcântara Formation in Brazil.
Spinosaurus was among the largest of all known carnivorous dinosaurs, nearly as large as or even larger than other theropods such as Tyrannosaurus, Giganotosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus. Estimates published in 2005, 2007, and 2008 suggested that it was between 12.6 to 18 meters (41 to 59 ft) in length and 7 to 20.9 metric tons (7.7 to 23.0 short tons) in weight. New estimates published in 2014 and 2018, based on a more complete specimen, supported the earlier research, finding that Spinosaurus could reach lengths of 15 to 16 meters (49 to 52 ft). The latest estimates suggest a weight of 6.4 to 7.5 metric tons (7.1 to 8.3 short tons). The skull of Spinosaurus was long, low and narrow, similar to that of a modern crocodilian, and bore straight conical teeth with no serrations. It would have had large, robust forelimbs bearing three-fingered hands, with an enlarged claw on the first digit. The distinctive neural spines of Spinosaurus, which were long extensions of the vertebrae (or backbones), grew to at least 1.65 meters (5.4 ft) long and were likely to have had skin connecting them, forming a sail-like structure, although some authors[who?] have suggested that the spines were covered in fat and formed a hump. Spinosaurus's hip bones were reduced, and the legs were very short in proportion to the body. Its long and narrow tail was deepened by tall, thin neural spines and elongated chevrons, forming a flexible fin or paddle-like structure.
Axel Adell: (Swedish Accent) ICE STYLE NINJA ART: WOOLLY MAMMOTH!
Axel fired a wave of ice and it formed into the famous and widely known ancestral elephants from 800,000 years ago: The Woolly Mammoth.
The woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) is an extinct species of mammoth that lived during the Pleistocene until its extinction in the Holocene epoch. It was one of the last in a line of mammoth species, beginning with Mammuthus subplanifrons in the early Pliocene. The woolly mammoth began to diverge from the steppe mammoth about 800,000 years ago in East Asia. Its closest extant relative is the Asian elephant. The appearance and behaviour of this species are among the best studied of any prehistoric animal because of the discovery of frozen carcasses in Siberia and Alaska, as well as skeletons, teeth, stomach contents, dung, and depiction from life in prehistoric cave paintings. Mammoth remains had long been known in Asia before they became known to Europeans in the 17th century. The origin of these remains was long a matter of debate, and often explained as being remains of legendary creatures. The mammoth was identified as an extinct species of elephant by Georges Cuvier in 1796.
The woolly mammoth was roughly the same size as modern African elephants. Males reached shoulder heights between 2.7 and 3.4 m (8.9 and 11.2 ft) and weighed up to 6 metric tons (6.6 short tons). Females reached 2.6–2.9 m (8.5–9.5 ft) in shoulder heights and weighed up to 4 metric tons (4.4 short tons). A newborn calf weighed about 90 kg (200 lb). The woolly mammoth was well adapted to the cold environment during the last ice age. It was covered in fur, with an outer covering of long guard hairs and a shorter undercoat. The colour of the coat varied from dark to light. The ears and tail were short to minimise frostbite and heat loss. It had long, curved tusks and four molars, which were replaced six times during the lifetime of an individual. Its behaviour was similar to that of modern elephants, and it used its tusks and trunk for manipulating objects, fighting, and foraging. The diet of the woolly mammoth was mainly grasses and sedges. Individuals could probably reach the age of 60. Its habitat was the mammoth steppe, which stretched across northern Eurasia and North America.
The woolly mammoth coexisted with early humans, who used its bones and tusks for making art, tools, and dwellings, and the species was also hunted for food. It disappeared from its mainland range at the end of the Pleistocene 10,000 years ago. Isolated populations survived on St. Paul Island until 5,600 years ago and on Wrangel Island until 4,000 years ago. After its extinction, humans continued using its ivory as a raw material, a tradition that continues today. With a genome project for the mammoth completed in 2015, it has been proposed the species could be revived through various means, but none of the methods proposed are yet feasible.
Dana: ICE STYLE NINJA ART: SABER-TOOTH CAT!
Dana fired a wave of ice and it formed into the ancestral cats of 42 million years ago: The Saber-Toothed Cats!
A saber-toothed cat (alternatively spelled sabre-toothed cat) is any member of various extinct groups of predatory mammals that are characterized by long, curved saber-shaped canine teeth which protruded from the mouth even when closed. The saber-toothed cats have been found almost worldwide from the Eocene epoch to the end of the Pleistocene epoch 42 million years ago (mya) – 11,000 years ago (kya). The first saber-toothed cat fossil in Canada was found in Medicine Hat, Alberta.
One of the best-known genera is Smilodon, species of which, especially S. fatalis, are popularly, but incorrectly, referred to as "saber-toothed tigers". However, usage of the word cat is in some cases a misnomer, as many species referred to as saber-toothed "cats" are not closely related to modern cats (Felidae). Instead, many are members are classified into different families of Feliformia, such as Barbourofelidae and Nimravidae; the oxyaenid "creodont" genera Machaeroides and Apataelurus; and two extinct lineages of metatherian mammals, the thylacosmilids of Sparassodonta, and deltatheroideans, which are more closely related to marsupials. In this regard, saber-toothed cats can be viewed as examples of convergent evolution. This convergence is remarkable due not only to the development of elongated canines, but also a suite of other characteristics, such as a wide gape and bulky forelimbs, which is so consistent that it has been termed the "saber-tooth suite."
Of the feliform lineages, the family Nimravidae is the oldest, entering the landscape around 42 mya and becoming extinct by 7.2 mya. Barbourofelidae entered around 16.9 mya and were extinct by 9 mya. These two would have shared some habitats.
Lana: ICE STYLE NINJA ART: WOOLLY RHINOCEROS!
Lana fired a wave of ice and it formed into the Ice Age ancestors of modern day Rhinoceroses from 3.6 Million years ago: The Woolly Rhinoceros!
The woolly rhinoceros (Coelodonta antiquitatis) is an extinct species of rhinoceros that was common throughout Europe and northern Asia during the Pleistocene epoch and survived until the end of the last glacial period. The woolly rhinoceros was a member of the Pleistocene megafauna.
The woolly rhinoceros was covered with thick and long hair, which allowed it to survive in the extremely cold, harsh mammoth steppe. It also had a massive hump reaching from its shoulder. It fed mainly on herbaceous plants that grew in the steppe.
Mummified carcasses preserved in permafrost and many bone remains of woolly rhinoceroses have been found. Images of woolly rhinoceroses are found among cave paintings in Europe and Asia.
Killer Frost: ICE STYLE NINJA ART: IRISH ELK!
Killer Frost fired a wave of ice and it formed into the largest deer ever known that lived 2.5 million years ago: The Irish Elk.
The Irish elk (Megaloceros giganteus) also called the giant deer or Irish deer, is an extinct species of deer in the genus Megaloceros and is one of the largest deer that ever lived. Its range extended across Eurasia during the Pleistocene, from Ireland to Lake Baikal in Siberia. The most recent remains of the species have been carbon dated to about 7,700 years ago in Siberia.
Although abundant skeletal remains have been found in bogs in Ireland, the animal was not exclusive to Ireland nor closely related to either of the living species currently called elk: Alces alces (the European elk, known in North America as the moose) or Cervus canadensis (the North American elk or wapiti). For this reason, the name "giant deer" is used in some publications, instead of "Irish elk". Although one study suggested that the Irish elk was closely related to the red deer (Cervus elaphus), most other phylogenetic analyses support that their closest living relatives are fallow deer (Dama dama).
Maggie: ICE STYLE NINJA ART: SHORT-FACED BEAR!
Maggie fired a wave of ice and it formed into the Ice Age bear from 1.8 million years ago: The Short-Faced Bear.
The short-faced bear (Arctodus sp.) is an extinct bear genus that inhabited North America during the Pleistocene epoch from about 1.8 Mya until 11,000 years ago. It was the most common early North American bear and was most abundant in California. There are two recognized species: the lesser short-faced bear (Arctodus pristinus) and the giant short-faced bear (Arctodus simus), with the latter considered to be one of the largest known terrestrial mammalian carnivores that has ever existed. It has been hypothesized that their extinction coincides with the Younger Dryas period of global cooling commencing around 10,900 BC.
Khalyaka: (India Accent) EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: TARBOSAURUS BABAAR!
Khalyaka fired a wave of earth and it formed into the terrible theropod of 70 million years ago: Tarbosaurus!
Tarbosaurus (meaning "alarming lizard") is a genus of tyrannosaurid theropod dinosaur that flourished in Asia about 70 million years ago, at the end of the Late Cretaceous Period, considered to contain a single known species, Tarbosaurus bataar. Fossils have been recovered in Mongolia, with more fragmentary remains found further afield in parts of China.
Although many species have been named, modern paleontologists recognize only one, T. bataar, as valid. Some experts see this species as an Asian representative of the North American genus Tyrannosaurus; this would make the genus Tarbosaurus redundant. Tarbosaurus and Tyrannosaurus, if not synonymous, are considered to be at least closely related genera. Alioramus, also from Mongolia, has previously been thought by some authorities to be the closest relative of Tarbosaurus, though this has since been disproven with the discovery of Qianzhousaurus and the description of the Alioramini.
Like most known tyrannosaurids, Tarbosaurus was a large bipedal predator, weighing up to 5 metric tons (5.5 short tons) and equipped with about sixty large teeth. It had a unique locking mechanism in its lower jaw and the smallest forelimbs relative to body size of all tyrannosaurids, renowned for their disproportionately tiny, two-fingered forelimbs.
Tarbosaurus lived in a humid floodplain criss-crossed by river channels. In this environment, it was an apex predator, probably preying on other large dinosaurs like the hadrosaur Saurolophus or the sauropod Nemegtosaurus. Tarbosaurus is represented by dozens of fossil specimens, including several complete skulls and skeletons. These remains have allowed scientific studies focusing on its phylogeny, skull mechanics, and brain structure.
Lynn: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: APATOSAURUS!
Lynn fired a wave of Earth and it formed into the famous sauropod from 158 million years ago: Apatosaurus!
Apatosaurus is a genus of herbivorous sauropod dinosaur that lived in North America during the Late Jurassic period. Othniel Charles Marsh described and named the first-known species, A. ajax, in 1877, and a second species, A. louisae, was discovered and named by William H. Holland in 1916. Apatosaurus lived about 152 to 151 million years ago (mya), during the late Kimmeridgian to early Tithonian age, and are now known from fossils in the Morrison Formation of modern-day Colorado, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Wyoming, and Utah in the United States. Apatosaurus had an average length of 21–22.8 m (69–75 ft), and an average mass of 16.4–22.4 t (16.1–22.0 long tons; 18.1–24.7 short tons). A few specimens indicate a maximum length of 11–30% greater than average and a mass of 32.7–72.6 t (32.2–71.5 long tons; 36.0–80.0 short tons).
The cervical vertebrae of Apatosaurus are less elongated and more heavily constructed than those of Diplodocus, a diplodocid like Apatosaurus, and the bones of the leg are much stockier despite being longer, implying that Apatosaurus was a more robust animal. The tail was held above the ground during normal locomotion. Apatosaurus had a single claw on each forelimb and three on each hindlimb. The Apatosaurus skull, long thought to be similar to Camarasaurus, is much more similar to that of Diplodocus. Apatosaurus was a generalized browser that likely held its head elevated. To lighten its vertebrae, Apatosaurus had air sacs that made the bones internally full of holes. Like that of other diplodocids, its tail may have been used as a whip to create loud noises.
The skull of Apatosaurus was confused with that of Camarasaurus and Brachiosaurus until 1909, when the holotype of A. louisae was found, and a complete skull just a few meters away from the front of the neck. Henry Fairfield Osborn disagreed with this association, and went on to mount a skeleton of Apatosaurus with a Camarasaurus skull cast. Apatosaurus skeletons were mounted with speculative skull casts until 1970, when McIntosh showed that more robust skulls assigned to Diplodocus were more likely from Apatosaurus.
Apatosaurus is a genus in the family Diplodocidae. It is one of the more basal genera, with only Amphicoelias and possibly a new, unnamed genus more primitive. While the subfamily Apatosaurinae was named in 1929, the group was not used validly until an extensive 2015 study. Only Brontosaurus is also in the subfamily, with the other genera being considered synonyms or reclassified as diplodocines. Brontosaurus has long been considered a junior synonym of Apatosaurus; its type species was reclassified as A. excelsus in 1903. A 2015 study concluded that Brontosaurus is a valid genus of sauropod distinct from Apatosaurus, but not all paleontologists agree with this division. As it existed in North America during the late Jurassic, Apatosaurus would have lived alongside dinosaurs such as Allosaurus, Camarasaurus, Diplodocus, and Stegosaurus.
Laney: FOREST STYLE NINJA ART: DIPLODOCUS!
Laney fired a wave of trees and leaves and it formed into the famous sauropod from 154 million years ago: Diplodocus!
Diplodocus is a genus of diplodocid sauropod dinosaurs whose fossils were first discovered in 1877 by S. W. Williston. The generic name, coined by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1878, is a neo-Latin term derived from Greek διπλός (diplos) "double" and δοκός (dokos) "beam", in reference to the double-beamed chevron bones located in the underside of the tail, which were then considered unique.
This genus of dinosaurs lived in what is now mid-western North America at the end of the Jurassic period. It is one of the more common dinosaur fossils found in the middle to upper Morrison Formation, between about 154 and 152 million years ago, during the late Kimmeridgian age. The Morrison Formation records an environment and time dominated by gigantic sauropod dinosaurs, such as Apatosaurus, Barosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Brontosaurus, and Camarasaurus. Its great size may have been a deterrent to the predators Allosaurus and Ceratosaurus: their remains have been found in the same strata, which suggests that they coexisted with Diplodocus.
Diplodocus is among the most easily identifiable dinosaurs, with its typical sauropod shape, long neck and tail, and four sturdy legs. For many years, it was the longest dinosaur known.
May: ICE STYLE NINJA ART: LEAELLYNASAURA!
May fired a wave of ice and it formed into the Australian dinosaur from 118 million years ago: Leaellynasaura!
Leaellynasaura is a genus of small herbivorous ornithischian dinosaurs from the Albian stage of the Early Cretaceous (dated to between 118 and 110 million years ago), first discovered in Dinosaur Cove, Australia. The only known species is Leaellynasaura amicagraphica. It was described in 1989, and named after Leaellyn Rich, the daughter of the Australian palaeontologist couple Tom Rich and Patricia Vickers-Rich who discovered it. The specific name, amicagraphica, translates to "friend writing" and honours both the Friends of the Museum of Victoria and the National Geographic Society for their support of Australian paleontology.
Lori: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: ALLOSAURUS!
Lori fired a wave of wind and it formed into the vicious theropod from 155 million years ago: Allosaurus!
Allosaurus is a genus of carnivorous theropod dinosaur that lived 155 to 145 million years ago during the late Jurassic period (Kimmeridgian to late Tithonian). The name "Allosaurus" means "different lizard" alluding to its unique concave vertebrae (at the time of its discovery). It is derived from the Greek ἄλλος (allos) ("different, other") and σαῦρος (sauros) ("lizard / generic reptile"). The first fossil remains that could definitively be ascribed to this genus were described in 1877 by paleontologist Othniel Charles Marsh. As one of the first well-known theropod dinosaurs, it has long attracted attention outside of paleontological circles.
Allosaurus was a large bipedal predator. Its skull was large and equipped with dozens of sharp, serrated teeth. It averaged 9.5 meters (31 ft) in length, though fragmentary remains suggest it could have reached over 12 m (39 ft). Relative to the large and powerful hindlimbs, its three-fingered forelimbs were small, and the body was balanced by a long and heavily muscled tail. It is classified as an allosaurid, a type of carnosaurian theropod dinosaur. The genus has a complicated taxonomy, and includes three valid species, the best known of which is A. fragilis. The bulk of Allosaurus remains have come from North America's Morrison Formation, with material also known from Portugal. It was known for over half of the 20th century as Antrodemus, but a study of the copious remains from the Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry brought the name "Allosaurus" back to prominence and established it as one of the best-known dinosaurs.
As the most abundant large predator in the Morrison Formation, Allosaurus was at the top of the food chain, probably preying on contemporaneous large herbivorous dinosaurs, and perhaps other predators. Potential prey included ornithopods, stegosaurids, and sauropods. Some paleontologists interpret Allosaurus as having had cooperative social behavior, and hunting in packs, while others believe individuals may have been aggressive toward each other, and that congregations of this genus are the result of lone individuals feeding on the same carcasses.
Leni: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: OMEISAURUS!
Leni fired a wave of water and it formed into one of the largest dinosaurs from 173 million years ago: Omeisaurus!
Omeisaurus (meaning "Omei lizard") is a genus of sauropod dinosaur from the Middle Jurassic Period (Bathonian-Callovian stage) of what is now China. Its name comes from Mount Emei, where it was discovered in the lower Shaximiao Formation of Sichuan Province.
Like other sauropods, Omeisaurus was herbivorous and large. It measured 20.2 metres (66 ft) long, and weighed 9.8 tonnes.
Luna: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: SUCHOMIMUS!
Luna fired a wave of water and it formed into the ferocious spinosaurid dinosaur from 125 million years ago: Suchomimus!
Suchomimus (meaning "crocodile mimic") is a genus of spinosaurid dinosaur that lived between 125 and 112 million years ago in what is now Niger, during the Aptian to early Albian stages of the Early Cretaceous period. The animal was named and described by palaeontologist Paul Sereno and colleagues in 1998, based on a partial skeleton from the Erlhaz Formation. Suchomimus's long and shallow skull, similar to that of a crocodile, earns it its generic name, while the specific name Suchomimus tenerensis alludes to the locality of its first remains, the Ténéré Desert.
Suchomimus was 9.5 to 11 metres (31 to 36 feet) long and weighed between 2.5 to 5.2 tonnes (2.8 to 5.7 short tons), although the holotype specimen may not have been fully grown. Suchomimus's narrow skull was perched on a short neck, and its forelimbs were powerfully built, bearing a giant claw on each thumb. Along the midline of the animal's back ran a low dorsal sail, built from the long neural spines of its vertebrae. Like other spinosaurids, it likely had a diet of fish and small prey animals.
Some palaeontologists consider the animal to be an African species of the European spinosaurid Baryonyx, B. tenerensis. Suchomimus might also be a junior synonym of the contemporaneous spinosaurid Cristatusaurus lapparenti, although the latter taxon is based on much more fragmentary remains. Suchomimus lived in a fluvial environment of vast floodplains alongside many other dinosaurs, in addition to pterosaurs, crocodylomorphs, fish, turtles, and bivalves.
Stella: SCORCH STYLE NINJA ART: OURANOSAURUS!
Stella fired a wave of fire and it formed into the Iguanodont from 100 million years ago: Ouranosaurus.
Ouranosaurus is a genus of herbivorous iguanodont dinosaur that lived during the Aptian stage of the Early Cretaceous of modern-day Niger. Ouranosaurus measured about 7 to 8.3 metres (23 to 27 ft) long. Two rather complete fossils were found in the Elrhaz Formation, Gadoufaoua deposits, Agadez, Niger, in 1965 and 1970. The animal was named in 1976 by French paleontologist Philippe Taquet; the type species being Ouranosaurus nigeriensis. The name is a combination of the Arabic word for "courage" and the country of discovery, although ourane is also the Tuareg name for the desert monitor.
Becca Chang: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: TITANOBOA!
Becca fired a wave of water that formed into the Colombian giant snake from 60 million years ago: Titanoboa!
Titanoboa (/tiˌtɑːnoʊˈboʊə/) is an extinct genus of very large snakes that lived in what is now La Guajira in northeastern Colombia. They could grow up to 12.8 m (42 ft) long and reach a weight of 1,135 kg (2,500 lb).
Fossils of Titanoboa have been found in the Cerrejón Formation, and date to around 58 to 60 million years ago. The giant snake lived during the Middle to Late Paleocene epoch, a 10-million-year period immediately following the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event.
The only known species is Titanoboa cerrejonensis, the largest snake ever discovered, which supplanted the previous record holder, Gigantophis.
Syd: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: OPHTHALMOSAURUS!
Syd fired a wave of water and it formed into the Ichthyosaur from 165 million years ago: Ophthalmosaurus!
Ophthalmosaurus (meaning "eye lizard" in Greek) is an ichthyosaur of the Middle Jurassic period (165-160 million years ago), named for its extremely large eyes. It had a graceful 6 m (19.5 ft) long dolphin-shaped body, and its almost toothless jaw was well adapted for catching squid. Major fossil finds of this genus have been recorded in Europe and North and South America.
Girl Jordan: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: ELASMOSAURUS!
Girl Jordan fired a wave of water and it formed into the huge long-necked plesiosaurus from 80.5 million years ago: Elasmosaurus!
Elasmosaurus is a genus of plesiosaur that lived in North America during the Campanian stage of the Late Cretaceous period, about 80.5 million years ago. The first specimen was discovered in 1867 near Fort Wallace, Kansas, US, and was sent to the American paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope, who named it E. platyurus in 1868. The generic name means "thin-plate reptile", and the specific name means "flat-tailed". Cope originally reconstructed the skeleton of Elasmosaurus with the skull at the end of the tail, an error which was made light of by the paleontologist Othniel Charles Marsh, and became part of their "Bone Wars" rivalry. Only one incomplete Elasmosaurus skeleton is definitely known, consisting of a fragmentary skull, the spine, and the pectoral and pelvic girdles, and a single species is recognized today; other species are now considered invalid or have been moved to other genera.
Measuring 10.3 meters (34 ft) long, Elasmosaurus would have had a streamlined body with paddle-like limbs, a short tail, a small head, and an extremely long neck. The neck alone was around 7.1 meters (23 ft) long. Along with its relative Albertonectes, it was one of the longest-necked animals to have lived, with the largest number of neck vertebrae known, 72. The skull would have been slender and triangular, with large, fang-like teeth at the front, and smaller teeth towards the back. It had six teeth in each premaxilla of the upper jaw, and may have had 14 teeth in the maxilla and 19 in the dentary of the lower jaw. Most of the neck vertebrae were compressed sideways, and bore a longitudinal crest or keel along the sides.
The family Elasmosauridae was based on the genus Elasmosaurus, the first recognized member of this group of long-necked plesiosaurs. Elasmosaurids were well adapted for aquatic life, and used their flippers for swimming. Contrary to earlier depictions, their necks were not very flexible, and could not be held high above the water surface. It is unknown what their long necks were used for, but they may have had a function in feeding. Elasmosaurids probably ate small fish and marine invertebrates, seizing them with their long teeth, and may have used gastroliths (stomach stones) to help digest their food. Elasmosaurus is known from the Pierre Shale formation, which represents marine deposits from the Western Interior Seaway.
SpongeBob: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: LIOPLEURODON!
SpongeBob fired a wave of water and it formed into the ferocious marine reptile from 166 million years ago: Liopleurodon!
Liopleurodon (/ˌlaɪoʊˈplʊərədɒn/; meaning 'smooth-sided teeth') is a genus of large, carnivorous marine reptile belonging to the Pliosauroidea, a clade of short-necked plesiosaurs. The two species of Liopleurodon lived from the Callovian Stage of the Middle Jurassic to the Kimmeridgian stage of the Late Jurassic Period (c. 166 to 155 mya). It was the apex predator of the Middle to Late Jurassic seas that covered Europe. The largest species, L. ferox, is estimated to have grown up to 6.4 metres (21 ft) in length.
The name "Liopleurodon" (meaning "smooth-sided tooth") derives from Ancient Greek words: λεῖος leios, "smooth"; πλευρά pleurá, "side" or "rib"; and ὀδόν odṓn, "tooth".
Salar: (Arabic Accent) FIRESTORM STYLE NINJA ART: GALLIMIMUS!
Salar fired a massive wave of fire and it formed into a herd of the ostrich-like egg-eaters from 70 million years ago: Gallimimus!
Gallimimus (/ˌɡælɪˈmaɪməs/ GAL-i-MY-məs) is a genus of theropod dinosaur that lived in what is now Mongolia during the Late Cretaceous period, about seventy million years ago (mya). Several fossils in various stages of growth were discovered by Polish-Mongolian expeditions in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia during the 1960s; a large skeleton discovered in this region was made the holotype specimen of the new genus and species Gallimimus bullatus in 1972. The generic name means "chicken mimic", referring to the similarities between its neck vertebrae and those of the Galliformes. The specific name is derived from bulla, a gold capsule worn by Roman youth, in reference to a bulbous structure at the base of the skull of Gallimimus. At the time it was named, the fossils of Gallimimus represented the most complete and best preserved ornithomimid ("ostrich dinosaur") material yet discovered, and the genus remains one of the best known members of the group.
Gallimimus is the largest known ornithomimid; adults were about 6 metres (20 ft) long, 1.9 metres (6 ft 3 in) tall at the hip and weighed about 440 kilograms (970 lb). As evidenced by its relative Ornithomimus, it would have had feathers. The head was small and light with large eyes that faced to the sides. The snout was long compared to other ornithomimids, although it was broader and more rounded at the tip than in other species. Gallimimus was toothless with a keratinous (horny) beak, and had a delicate lower jaw. Many of the vertebrae had openings that indicate they were pneumatic (air-filled). The neck was proportionally long in relation to the trunk. The hands were proportionally the shortest of any ornithomimosaur and each had three digits with curved claws. The forelimbs were weak while the hindlimbs were proportionally long. The family Ornithomimidae is part of the group Ornithomimosauria. Anserimimus, also from Mongolia, is thought to have been the closest relative of Gallimimus.
As an ornithomimid, Gallimimus would have been a fleet (or cursorial) animal, using its speed to escape predators; its speed has been estimated at 42–56 km/h (29–34 mph). It may have had good vision and intelligence comparable to ratite birds. Gallimimus may have lived in groups, based on the discovery of several specimens preserved in a bone bed. Various theories have been proposed regarding the diet of Gallimimus and other ornithomimids. The highly mobile neck may have helped locate small prey on the ground, but it may also have been an opportunistic omnivore. It has also been suggested that it used small columnar structures in its beak for filter-feeding in water, though these structures may instead have been ridges used for feeding on tough plant material, indicative of a herbivorous diet. Gallimimus is the most commonly found ornithomimosaur in the Nemegt Formation, where it lived alongside its relatives Anserimimus and Deinocheirus. Gallimimus was featured in the movie Jurassic Park, in a scene that was important to the history of special effects, and in shaping the common conception of dinosaurs as bird-like animals.
Andropov: (Russian Accent) ICE STYLE NINJA ART: ELASMOTHERIUM!
Andropov fired a wave of ice and it formed into the ancestral big-horned rhinoceros of the Ice Age from 2.6 million years ago: Elasmotherium!
Elasmotherium is an extinct genus of large rhinoceros endemic to Eurasia during the Late Pliocene through the Pleistocene, existing from 2.6 Ma to at least as late as 39,000 years ago in the Late Pleistocene. A more recent date of 26,000 BP is considered less reliable. It was the last surviving member of Elasmotheriinae, a distinctive group of rhinoceroses that had separated from the ancestry of living rhinoceroses by at least 35 million years ago according to fossils and estimated around 47.4 million years ago based on molecular clock.
Four species are recognised, which were largely confined to the Pontic–Caspian steppe, the Caucasus and Central Asia. The best known, E. sibiricum, known as the Siberian unicorn, was the size of a mammoth and is thought to have borne a large, thick horn on its forehead. Like all rhinoceroses, elasmotheres were herbivorous. Unlike any other rhinos and any other ungulates aside from some notoungulates, its high-crowned molars were ever-growing. Its legs were longer than those of other rhinos and were adapted for galloping, giving it a horse-like gait.
Golova: (Russian Accent) ICE STYLE NINJA ART: CAVE LION!
Golova fired a wave of ice and it formed into the Ice Age lions of 500,000 years ago: Cave Lions!
Panthera spelaea, also known as the "Eurasian cave lion", "European cave lion", or "steppe lion", is an extinct Panthera species that evolved in Europe probably after the third Cromerian interglacial stage, less than 600,000 years ago. Phylogenetic analysis of fossil bone samples revealed that it was highly distinct and genetically isolated from the modern lion (Panthera leo) occurring in Africa and Asia. Analysis of morphological differences and mitochondrial data support the taxonomic recognition of Panthera spelaea as a distinct species that diverged from the lion about 1.9 million years ago. Nuclear genomic evidence suggests a more recent split approximately 500,000 years ago, with no subsequent interbreeding with the ancestors of the modern lion. The oldest known bone fragments were excavated in Yakutia and radiocarbon dated at least 62,400 years old. It became extinct about 13,000 years ago.
Maverick: (Canadian Accent) ICE STYLE NINJA ART: NANUQSAURUS!
Maverick fired a wave of ice and it formed into the arctic theropod from 69 million years ago: Nanuqsaurus!
Nanuqsaurus (meaning "polar bear lizard") is a genus of carnivorous tyrannosaurid theropod known from the Late Cretaceous (early Late Maastrichtian stage) Prince Creek Formation of the North Slope of Alaska, USA. It contains a single species, Nanuqsaurus hoglundi, known only from a partial skull.
Matthias: (German Accent) FOREST STYLE NINJA ART: LEPTICTIDIUM!
Matthias fired a wave of wood and leaves and it formed into a swarm of the ancestor of the Elephant Shrew that lived 50 million years ago: Leptictidium!
Leptictidium (a Latinized diminutive of the name of its close relative Leptictis, which means "graceful weasel" in Ancient Greek) is an extinct genus of small mammals that were likely bipedal. Comprising eight species, they resembled today's elephant shrews. They are especially interesting for their combination of characteristics typical of primitive eutherians with highly specialized adaptations, such as powerful hind legs and a long tail which aided in locomotion. They were omnivorous, their diet a combination of insects, lizards and small mammals. One of the first branches to split from basal eutherians, they appeared in the Lower Eocene, a time of warm temperatures and high humidity, roughly fifty million years ago. Although they were widespread throughout Europe, they became extinct around thirty-five million years ago with no descendants, probably because they were adapted to live in forest ecosystems and were unable to adapt to the open plains of the Oligocene.
Kanaloa: (Hawaiian Accent) BEACH STYLE NINJA ART: EUSTREPTOSPONDYLUS!
Kanaloa fired a wave of sand and water and it formed into the theropod dinosaur from 163 million years ago: Eustreptospondylus!
Eustreptospondylus (/juːˌstrɛptoʊspɒnˈdaɪləs/ yoo-STREPT-o-spon-DY-ləs; meaning "true Streptospondylus") is a genus of megalosaurid theropod dinosaur, from the Oxfordian stage of the Late Jurassic period (some time between 163 and 154 million years ago) in southern England, at a time when Europe was a series of scattered islands (due to tectonic movement at the time which raised the sea-bed and flooded the lowland).
Fiona: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: ORNITHOCHEIRUS!
Fiona fired a wave of wind and it formed into the ostrich-like dinosaur from 92.5 million years ago: Ornithocheirus!
Ornithocheirus (from Ancient Greek "ὄρνις", meaning bird, and "χεῖρ", meaning hand) is a pterosaur genus known from fragmentary fossil remains uncovered from sediments in the UK and possibly Morocco.
Several species have been referred to the genus, most of which are now considered as dubious species, or members of different genera, and the genus is now often considered to include only the type species, Ornithocheirus simus. Species have been referred to Ornithocheirus from the mid-Cretaceous period of both Europe and South America, but O. simus is known only from the UK, though a specimen referred to O. cf. simus is also known from Morocco.
Because O. simus was originally named based on poorly preserved fossil material, the genus Ornithocheirus has suffered enduring problems of zoological nomenclature.
Fossil remains of Ornithocheirus have been recovered mainly from the Cambridge Greensand of England, dating to the beginning of the Albian stage of the early Cretaceous period, about 110 million years ago. Additional fossils from the Santana Formation of Brazil are sometimes classified as species of Ornithocheirus, but have also been placed in their own genera, most notably Tropeognathus.
Becky: PHOENIX STYLE NINJA ART: COELOPHYSIS!
Becky fired a wave of fire and it formed into one of the first ever dinosaurs from 216 million years ago: Coelophysis!
Coelophysis (/sɛˈlɒfɪsɪs/ seh-LOF-ih-sis traditionally; /ˌsɛloʊˈfaɪsɪs/ SEL-o-FY-sis or /ˌsiːloʊˈfaɪsɪs/ SEE-lo-FY-sis are heard more commonly in recent decades) is an extinct genus of coelophysid theropod dinosaur that lived approximately 216 to 196 million years ago during the latter part of the Triassic Period in what is now the southwestern United States and also in South Africa and Zimbabwe.
Coelophysis was a small, slenderly-built, ground-dwelling, bipedal carnivore, that could grow up to 3 m (9.8 ft) long. Coelophysis is one of the earliest known dinosaur genera. Scattered material representing similar animals has been found worldwide in some Late Triassic and Early Jurassic formations.
The type species C. bauri, originally given to the genus Coelurus by Edward Drinker Cope in 1887, was described by the latter in 1889. The names Longosaurus and Rioarribasaurus are synonymous with Coelophysis. Another dinosaur genus, Megapnosaurus, has also been considered to be a synonym. This primitive theropod is notable for being one of the most specimen-rich dinosaur genera.
Jackie: EXPLOSION STYLE NINJA ART: INOSTANCEVIA!
Jackie fired a wave of explosions and they formed into the carnivorous Permian therapsid from 265 million years ago: Inostancevia!
Inostrancevia is an extinct genus of carnivorous therapsids, containing the largest members of the family Gorgonopsidae, predators characterized by long, saber-tooth-like canines. The various species inhabited northern Russia during the Upper Tatarian (Vyatskian), a Russian regional stage equivalent to the Wuchiapingian stage of the Late Permian period, dating from approximately 265 to 252.3 million years ago. It is known from several skulls and two almost-complete skeletons.
Mandee: FOREST STYLE NINJA ART: MUTTABURRASAURUS!
Mandee fired a wave of wood and leaves and it formed into the Iguanodont from 105 million years ago: Muttaburrasaurus!
Muttaburrasaurus was a genus of herbivorous ornithopod dinosaur, which lived in what is now northeastern Australia sometime between 105 and 103 million years ago during the early Cretaceous Period. It has been recovered in some analyses as a member of the iguanodontian family Rhabdodontidae. After Kunbarrasaurus, it is Australia's most completely known dinosaur from skeletal remains. It was named after Muttaburra, the site in Queensland, Australia, where it was found.
Paige: PHOENIX STYLE NINJA ART: CRYOLOPHOSAURUS!
Paige fired a wave of fire and it formed into the Antarctic dinosaur from 193 million years ago: Cryolophosaurus!
Cryolophosaurus (/ˌkraɪoʊˌloʊfoʊˈsɔːrəs/ or /kraɪˌɒloʊfoʊˈsɔːrəs/; "CRY-oh-loaf-oh-SAWR-us") is a genus of large theropods known from only a single species Cryolophosaurus ellioti, known from the early Jurassic period of Antarctica. It was about 6.5 metres (21.3 ft) long and 465 kilograms (1,025 lb) in weight, making it one of the largest theropods of its time. Individuals of this species may have grown even larger, because the only known specimen probably represents a sub-adult. Cryolophosaurus is known from a skull, a femur and other material, the skull and femur of which have caused its classification to vary greatly. The femur possesses many primitive characteristics that have classified Cryolophosaurus as a dilophosaurid or a neotheropod outside of Dilophosauridae and Averostra, whereas the skull has many advanced features, leading the genus to be considered a tetanuran, an abelisaurid, a ceratosaur and even an allosaurid. Since its original description, the consensus is that Cryolophosaurus is either a primitive member of the Tetanurae or a close relative of that group.
Cryolophosaurus possessed a distinctive "pompadour" crest that spanned the head from side to side. Based on evidence from related species and studies of bone texture, it is thought that this bizarre crest was used for intra-species recognition. The brain of Cryolophosaurus was also more primitive than those of other theropods.
Cryolophosaurus was first excavated from Antarctica's Early Jurassic, Sinemurian to Pliensbachian aged Hanson Formation, formerly the upper Falla Formation, by paleontologist Dr. William Hammer in 1991. It was the first carnivorous dinosaur to be discovered in Antarctica and the first non-avian dinosaur from the continent to be officially named. The sediments in which its fossils were found have been dated at ~194 to 188 million years ago, representing the Early Jurassic Period.
Lateefa: (Arabic Accent) DESERT STYLE NINJA ART: VELOCIRAPTORS!
Lateefa fired a wave of sand and it formed into the deadly carnivorous dinosaurs from 78 million years ago: Velociraptor!
Velociraptor (/vɪˈlɒsɪræptər/; meaning "swift seizer" in Latin) is a genus of dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived approximately 75 to 71 million years ago during the latter part of the Cretaceous Period. Two species are currently recognized, although others have been assigned in the past. The type species is V. mongoliensis; fossils of this species have been discovered in Mongolia. A second species, V. osmolskae, was named in 2008 for skull material from Inner Mongolia, China.
Smaller than other dromaeosaurids like Deinonychus and Achillobator, Velociraptor nevertheless shared many of the same anatomical features. It was a bipedal, feathered carnivore with a long tail and an enlarged sickle-shaped claw on each hindfoot, which is thought to have been used to tackle and disembowel prey. Velociraptor can be distinguished from other dromaeosaurids by its long and low skull, with an upturned snout.
Velociraptor (commonly shortened to "raptor") is one of the dinosaur genera most familiar to the general public due to its prominent role in the Jurassic Park motion picture series. In real life, however, Velociraptor was roughly the size of a turkey, considerably smaller than the approximately 2 m (6 1⁄2 ft) tall and 80 kg (180 lb) reptiles seen in the films (which were based on members of the related genus Deinonychus). Today, Velociraptor is well known to paleontologists, with over a dozen described fossil skeletons, the most of any dromaeosaurid. One particularly famous specimen preserves a Velociraptor locked in combat with a Protoceratops.
Nataša: (Czech Accent) EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: UTAHRAPTOR!
Nataša fired a wave of earth and it formed into the state dinosaurs of Utah from 139 million years ago: Utahraptor!
Utahraptor (meaning Utah's predator) is a genus of large dromaeosaurid dinosaur that lived in North America during the Early Cretaceous period. It was a heavy-built, ground-dwelling, bipedal carnivore. It contains a single species, Utahraptor ostrommaysi, which is the largest-known member of the family Dromaeosauridae.
In 2018, it was proposed that Utahraptor be the Utah state dinosaur, an act that was approved by the Senate. Initially Utahraptor would have replaced another dinosaur, Allosaurus, as the state's official fossil, but it was decided that Utahraptor would be another symbol of the state.
Suwailim: (Egyptian Accent) DESERT STYLE NINJA ART: PROTOCERATOPS!
Suwailim fired a wave of sand and it formed into the Ceratopsian from 75 million years ago: Protoceratops.
Protoceratops (/ˌproʊtoʊˈsɛrətɒps/; from Greek proto-/πρωτο- "first", cerat-/κερατ- "horn" and -ops/-ωψ "face", meaning "first horned face") is a genus of sheep-sized (1.8 m long) herbivorous ceratopsian dinosaur, from the Upper Cretaceous Period (Campanian stage) of what is now Mongolia. It was a member of the Protoceratopsidae, a group of early horned dinosaurs. Unlike later ceratopsians, however, it was a much smaller creature that lacked well-developed horns and retained some basal traits not seen in later genera.
Protoceratops had a large neck frill which was likely used as a display site to impress other members of the species. Other hypotheses about its function include protection of the neck and anchoring of jaw muscles, but the fragility of the frill and the poor leverage offered by possible attachment sites here makes these ideas implausible. Described by Walter W. Granger and W.K. Gregory in 1923, Protoceratops was initially believed to be an ancestor of the North American ceratopsians. Researchers currently distinguish two species of Protoceratops (P. andrewsi and P. hellenikorhinus), based in part by their respective sizes.
In the 1920s, Roy Chapman Andrews discovered fossilized eggs in Mongolia that were interpreted as belonging to this dinosaur, but which turned out to be those of Oviraptor. However, it wouldn't be until 2011 that a genuine Protoceratops nest was discovered, with the remains of the neonates inside suggesting parental care in this dinosaur.
Woya: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: PTERANODON!
Woya fired a wave of wind and it formed into the famous pterosaur from 86 million years ago: Pteranodon!
Pteranodon (/tɪˈrænədɒn/; from Greek πτερόν (pteron, "wing") and ἀνόδων (anodon, "toothless")) is a genus of pterosaur that included some of the largest known flying reptiles, with wingspans over 7 meters (23 feet). They lived during the late Cretaceous geological period of North America in present-day Kansas, Alabama, Nebraska, Wyoming, and South Dakota. More fossil specimens of Pteranodon have been found than any other pterosaur, with about 1,200 specimens known to science, many of them well preserved with nearly complete skulls and articulated skeletons. It was an important part of the animal community in the Western Interior Seaway.
Pteranodon was a pterosaur, meaning that it is not a dinosaur. By definition, all dinosaurs belong to one of the two groups within Dinosauria, i.e. Saurischia or Ornithischia. As such, this excludes pterosaurs. Nonetheless, Pteranodon is frequently featured in dinosaur media and are strongly associated with dinosaurs by the general public. While not dinosaurs, pterosaurs such as Pteranodon form a clade closely related to dinosaurs as both fall within the clade Avemetatarsalia.
Leyati: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: ARGENTAVIS!
Leyati fired a wave of wind and it formed into the largest prehistoric bird ever to grace the skies from 9 million years ago: Argentavis Magnificens.
Argentavis magnificens was among the largest flying birds ever to exist, quite possibly surpassed in wingspan only by Pelagornis sandersi, which was described in 2014. A. magnificens, sometimes called the Giant Teratorn, is an extinct species known from three sites in the Epecuén and Andalhualá Formations in central and northwestern Argentina dating to the Late Miocene (Huayquerian), where a good sample of fossils has been obtained.
Edwayl: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: BASILOSAURUS!
Edwayl fired a wave of water and it formed into the one of the first whales of the Eocene epoch from 41.3 million years ago: Basilosaurus!
Basilosaurus (meaning "king lizard") is a genus of large, predatory, prehistoric archaeocete whale from the late Eocene, approximately 41.3 to 33.9 million years ago (mya). First described in 1834, it was the first archaeocete and prehistoric whale known to science. The first fossils were discovered along the Gulf Coast of the United States, along with a few fossils in the eastern U.S., attributed to the type species B. cetoides. They were originally thought to be of a giant reptile, hence the suffix "-saurus", Ancient Greek for "lizard". The animal was later found to be an early marine mammal, which prompted attempts at renaming the creature, which failed as zoological nomenclature dictates using the original name given. Fossils were later found of the second species, B. isis, in 1904 in North Africa, more specifically the countries of Egypt, Jordan, Tunisia and Morocco. Basilosaurus has a possible record in Seymour Island in Antarctica.
Basilosaurus is considered to have been common in the Tethys sea. It was one of the largest, if not the largest, animals of the Paleogene. It was the top predator of its environment, preying on sharks, large fish and other marine mammals, namely the dolphin-like Dorudon, which seems to have been their predominant food source.
Basilosaurus was at one point a wastebasket taxon, before the genus slowly started getting reevaluated, with many species of different Eocene cetacean being assigned to the genus in the past, however they are invalid or have been reclassified under a new or different genus, leaving only 2 confirmed species. Basilosaurus may have been one of the first fully aquatic cetaceans (sometimes referred to as the pelagiceti). Basilosaurus, unlike modern cetaceans, had various types of teeth–such as canines and molars–in its mouth (heterodonty), and it probably was able to chew its food in contrast to modern cetaceans which swallow their food whole.
Rusty: DESERT STYLE NINJA ART: PARACERATHERIUM!
Rusty fired a wave of sand and it formed into the one of the ancestral rhinoceroses from 34 million years ago: Paraceratherium!
Paraceratherium is an extinct genus of hornless rhinoceros. It is one of the largest terrestrial mammals that has existed and lived from the early to late Oligocene epoch (34–23 million years ago). Its remains have been found across Eurasia between China and the Balkans. It is classified as a member of the hyracodont subfamily Indricotheriinae. Paraceratherium means "near the hornless beast", in reference to Aceratherium, the genus in which the type species A. bugtiense was originally placed.
The exact size of Paraceratherium is unknown because of the incompleteness of the fossils. The shoulder height was about 4.8 metres (15.7 feet), and the length about 7.4 metres (24.3 feet). Its weight is estimated to have been about 15 to 20 tonnes (33,000 to 44,000 lb). The long neck supported a skull that was about 1.3 metres (4.3 ft) long. It had large, tusk-like incisors and a nasal incision that suggests it had a prehensile upper lip or proboscis (trunk). The legs were long and pillar-like. The lifestyle of Paraceratherium may have been similar to that of modern large mammals such as the elephants and extant rhinoceroses. Because of its size, it would have had few predators and a slow rate of reproduction. It was a browser, eating mainly leaves, soft plants, and shrubs. It lived in habitats ranging from arid deserts with a few scattered trees to subtropical forests. The reasons for the animal's extinction are unknown, but various factors have been proposed.
The taxonomy of the genus and the species within has a long and complicated history. Other genera of Oligocene indricotheres, such as Baluchitherium, Indricotherium, and Pristinotherium, have been named, but no complete specimens exist, making comparison and classification difficult. Most modern scientists consider these genera to be junior synonyms of Paraceratherium, and it is thought to contain at least three discernible species; P. bugtiense, P. transouralicum, and P. huangheense. The most completely-known species is P. transouralicum, so most reconstructions of the genus are based on it. Differences between P. bugtiense and P. transouralicum may be due to sexual dimorphism, which would make them the same species.
Zach: PLAIN STYLE NINJA ART: ENTELODON!
Zach fired a wave of sand and leaves and it formed into the ancestors of the wild boar from 33.9 million years ago: Entelodon!
Entelodon (meaning "complete teeth", from Ancient Greek ἐντελής entelēs "complete" and ὀδών odōn "tooth", referring to its "complete" eutherian dentition), is an extinct genus of entelodont artiodactyl endemic to Eurasia. Fossils of species are found in Paleogene strata ranging in age from the Houldjinian (37.2–33.9 mya) until the Rupelian epoch of the early Oligocene (33.9–28.4 mya).
Liam: (Southern Accent) PLAIN STYLE NINJA ART: HYAENODON!
Liam fired a wave of sand and leaves and it formed into the ancestors of the hyena from 42 million years ago: Hyaenodon!
Hyaenodon ("hyena-tooth") is the type genus of the Hyaenodontidae, a family of extinct carnivorous fossil mammals from Eurasia, North America, and Africa, with species existing temporally from the Eocene until the middle Miocene, existing for about 26.1 million years.
The various species of Hyaenodon competed with each other and with other hyaenodont genera (including Sinopa, Dissopsalis, and Hyainailurus), and played important roles as predators in ecological communities as late as the Miocene in Africa and Asia and preyed on a variety of prey species such as primitive horses like Mesohippus and early camels. Species of Hyaenodon have been shown to have successfully preyed on other large carnivores of their time, including a nimravid ("false sabertooth cat"), according to analysis of tooth puncture marks on a fossil Dinictis skull found in North Dakota.
Clyde: PLAIN STYLE NINJA ART: AMPHICYON!
Clyde fired a wave of sand and leaves and it formed into the ancestor of the wolf from 14.3 million years ago: Amphicyon!
Amphicyon ("ambiguous dog") is an extinct genus of large carnivorous bone-crushing mammals, popularly known as bear dogs, of the family Amphicyonidae, subfamily Amphicyoninae, from the Burdigalian Epoch until the late Pliocene. They ranged over North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa from 16.9–2.6 Ma ago, existing approximately 14.3 million years.
Mollie: LIGHTNING STYLE NINJA ART: GIGANOTOSAURUS!
Mollie fired a wave of lightning and it formed into the ferocious theropod from 98 million years ago: Giganotosaurus!
Giganotosaurus (/ˌdʒaɪɡəˌnoʊtəˈsɔːrəs/ JY-gə-NOH-tə-SOR-əs) is a genus of theropod dinosaur that lived in what is now Argentina, during the early Cenomanian age of the Late Cretaceous period, approximately 98 to 97 million years ago. The holotype specimen was discovered in the Candeleros Formation of Patagonia in 1993, and is almost 70% complete. The animal was named Giganotosaurus carolinii in 1995; the genus name translates as "giant southern lizard" and the specific name honors the discoverer, Rubén D. Carolini. A dentary bone, a tooth and some tracks, discovered before the holotype, were later assigned to this animal. The genus attracted much interest and became part of a scientific debate about the maximum sizes of theropod dinosaurs.
Giganotosaurus was one of the largest known terrestrial carnivores, but the exact size has been hard to determine due to the incompleteness of the remains found so far. Estimates for the most complete specimen range from a length of 12 to 13 m (39 to 43 ft), a skull 1.53 to 1.80 m (5.0 to 5.9 ft) in length, and a weight of 4.2 to 13.8 t (4.6 to 15.2 short tons). The dentary bone that belonged to a supposedly larger individual has been used to extrapolate a length of 13.2 m (43 ft). Some researchers have found the animal to be larger than Tyrannosaurus, which has historically been considered the largest theropod, while others have found them to be roughly equal in size, and the largest size estimates for Giganotosaurus exaggerated. The skull was low, with rugose (rough and wrinkled) nasal bones and a ridge-like crest on the lacrimal bone in front of the eye. The front of the lower jaw was flattened, and had a downwards projecting process (or "chin") at the tip. The teeth were compressed sideways and had serrations. The neck was strong and the pectoral girdle proportionally small.
Part of the family Carcharodontosauridae, Giganotosaurus is one of the most completely known members of the group, which includes other very large theropods, such as the closely related Mapusaurus and Carcharodontosaurus. Giganotosaurus is thought to have been homeothermic (a type of "warm-bloodedness"), with a metabolism between that of a mammal and a reptile, which would have enabled fast growth. It may have been relatively fast moving, with a calculated maximal running speed of 14 m/s (50 km/h; 31 mph). It would have been capable of closing its jaws quickly, capturing and bringing down prey by delivering powerful bites. The "chin" may have helped in resisting stress when a bite was delivered against prey. Giganotosaurus is thought to have been the apex predator of its ecosystem, and it may have fed on juvenile sauropod dinosaurs.
Luan: JUNGLE STYLE NINJA ART: GIGANTOPITHECUS!
Luan fired a wave of leaves and grass and it formed into one of the first apes from 2 million to 300,000 years ago: Gigantopithecus!
Gigantopithecus is an extinct genus of ape from the Early to Middle Pleistocene of southern China, represented by one species, G. blacki. Potential identifications have also been made in Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia. The first remains of Gigantopithecus, two third molar teeth, were identified in a drugstore by anthropologist Ralph von Koenigswald in 1935, who subsequently described the ape. In 1956, the first mandible and over 1,000 teeth were found in Liucheng, and numerous more remains have since been found in at least 16 sites. Only teeth and 4 mandibles are known currently, and other skeletal elements were likely consumed by porcupines before they could fossilise. Gigantopithecus was once argued to be a hominin, a member of the human line, but it is now thought to be closely allied with orangutans, classified in the subfamily Ponginae.
Gigantopithecus has traditionally been restored as a massive, gorilla-like ape, potentially 200–300 kg (440–660 lb) when alive, but the paucity of remains make total size estimates highly speculative. The species may have been sexually dimorphic, with males much bigger than females. The incisors are reduced and the canines appear to have functioned like cheek teeth (premolars and molars). The premolars are high-crowned, and the fourth premolar is very molar-like. The molars are the largest of any known ape, and have a relatively flat surface. Gigantopithecus had the thickest enamel by absolute measure of any ape, up to 6 mm (a quarter of an inch) in some areas, though was only fairly thick when tooth size is taken into account.
Gigantopithecus appears to have been a generalist herbivore of C3 forest plants, with the jaw adapted to grinding, crushing, and cutting through tough, fibrous plants; and the thick enamel functioning to resist foods with abrasive particles such as stems, roots, and tubers with dirt. Some teeth bear traces of fig family fruits. It primarily lived in subtropical to tropical forest, and went extinct about 300,000 years ago likely due to climate change and the retreat of preferred habitat, and potentially archaic human activity by Homo erectus. Gigantopithecus has become popular in cryptozoology circles as the identity of the Tibetan yeti or the American bigfoot, humanlike monsters in local folklore.
Fletcher: (Scottish Accent) ICE STYLE NINJA ART: DIRE WOLVES!
Fletcher fired a wave of ice and it formed into a pack of the first wolves from 125,000 to 9,500 years ago: the Dire Wolves!
The dire wolf (Canis dirus, "fearsome dog") is an extinct species of the genus Canis. It is one of the most famous prehistoric carnivores in North America, along with its extinct competitor, the sabre-toothed cat Smilodon fatalis. The dire wolf lived in the Americas during the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene epochs (125,000–9,500 years ago). The species was named in 1858, four years after the first specimen had been found. Two subspecies are recognized: Canis dirus guildayi and Canis dirus dirus. The dire wolf probably evolved from Armbruster's wolf (Canis armbrusteri) in North America. The largest collection of its fossils has been obtained from the Rancho La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles.
Dire wolf remains have been found across a broad range of habitats including the plains, grasslands, and some forested mountain areas of North America, and in the arid savannah of South America. The sites range in elevation from sea level to 2,255 meters (7,400 ft). Dire wolf fossils have rarely been found north of 42°N latitude; there have been only five unconfirmed reports above this latitude. This range restriction is thought to be due to temperature, prey, or habitat limitations imposed by proximity to the Laurentide and Cordilleran ice sheets that existed at the time.
The dire wolf was about the same size as the largest modern gray wolves (Canis lupus): the Yukon wolf and the northwestern wolf. C. d. guildayi weighed on average 60 kilograms (132 lb) and C. d. dirus was on average 68 kg (150 lb). Its skull and dentition matched those of C. lupus, but its teeth were larger with greater shearing ability, and its bite force at the canine tooth was the strongest of any known Canis species. These characteristics are thought to be adaptations for preying on Late Pleistocene megaherbivores, and in North America its prey are known to have included horses, ground sloths, mastodons, bison, and camels. As with other large Canis hypercarnivores today, the dire wolf is thought to have been a pack hunter. Its extinction occurred during the Quaternary extinction event along with most of the American megafauna of the time, including a number of other carnivores, that occurred soon after the appearance of humans in the New World. Its reliance on megaherbivores has been proposed as the cause of its extinction, along with climate change and competition with other species, but the cause remains controversial. Dire wolves lived as recently as 9,500 years ago, according to dated remains.
Atchara: (Thai Accent) JUNGLE STYLE NINJA ART: MAPUSAURUS!
Atchara fired a wave of leaves and grass and it formed into the theropod from 97 million years ago: Mapusaurus!
Mapusaurus ("Earth lizard") was a giant carcharodontosaurid carnosaurian dinosaur from the early Late Cretaceous (late Cenomanian to early Turonian stage) of what is now Argentina and possibly Chile.
Alex T.: (Greek Accent) FIRESTORM STYLE NINJA ART: ARGENTINOSAURUS!
Alex fired a wave of fire and it formed into the largest dinosaur that ever lived from 96.2 million years ago: Argentinosaurus!
Argentinosaurus is a genus of giant sauropod dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous period in what is now Argentina. Although it is only known from fragmentary remains, Argentinosaurus is one of the largest-known land animals of all time, if not the largest, with length estimates ranging from 30 to 39.7 metres (98 to 130 ft) and weight estimates from 50 to 100 tonnes (55 to 110 short tons). It was a member of Titanosauria, the dominant group of sauropods during the Cretaceous.
The first Argentinosaurus bone was discovered in 1987 by a farmer on his farm near the city of Plaza Huincul. A scientific excavation of the site led by the Argentine palaeontologist José Bonaparte was conducted in 1989, yielding several back vertebrae and parts of a sacrum—fused vertebrae between the back and tail vertebrae. Additional specimens include a complete femur (thigh bone) and the shaft of another. Argentinosaurus was named by Bonaparte and the Argentine palaeontologist Rodolfo Coria in 1993; it contains a single species, A. huinculensis. The generic name Argentinosaurus means "Argentine lizard", and the specific name huinculensis refers to its place of discovery, Plaza Huincul.
The fragmentary nature of Argentinosaurus remains makes their interpretation difficult. Arguments revolve around the position of the recovered vertebrae within the vertebral column and the presence of accessory articulations between the vertebrae that would have strengthened the spine. A computer model of the skeleton and muscles estimated this dinosaur had a maximum speed of 7 km/h (5 mph) with a pace, a gait where the fore and hind limb of the same side of the body move simultaneously. The fossils of Argentinosaurus were recovered from the Huincul Formation, which was deposited in the middle Cenomanian to early Turonian ages (around 96 to 92 million years ago) and contains a diverse dinosaur fauna including the giant theropod Mapusaurus.
Shamrina: (Assyrian Accent) FIRESTORM STYLE NINJA ART: DAEODON!
Shamrina fired a wave of fire and it formed into one of the ancestral wild boars from 29 million years ago: Daeodon!
Daeodon is an extinct genus of entelodont artiodactyl that inhabited North America between 29 and 19 million years ago during the middle Oligocene and early Miocene epochs. The type species is Daeodon shoshonensis, the last and largest of the entelodonts; known adults of this species possessed skulls about 90 cm (3 ft) in length. It had a broad distribution across the United States, but it was never abundant.
Tshibangu: (Congolese Accent) JUNGLE STYLE NINJA ART: GIANT GROUND SLOTH!
Tshibangu fired a wave of leaves and grass and it formed into the ancestor of the sloth from 5 million years ago: Megatherium or Giant Ground Sloth!
Megatherium (/mɛɡəˈθɪəriəm/ meg-ə-THEER-ee-əm from the Greek mega [μέγας], meaning "great", and therion [θηρίον], "beast") is an extinct genus of ground sloths endemic to South America that lived from the Early Pliocene through the end of the Pleistocene. It is best known for the elephant-sized type species M. americanum, sometimes called the giant ground sloth, or the megathere, native to the Pampas through southern Bolivia during the Pleistocene. Various other smaller species belonging to the subgenus Pseudomegatherium are known from the Andes. Megatherium is part of the sloth family Megatheriidae, which also includes the similarly elephantine Eremotherium, which was native to tropical South America and southern North America. Only a few other land mammals equaled or exceeded M. americanum in size, such as large proboscideans (e.g., elephants) and the giant rhinoceros Paraceratherium. Megatherium was first discovered in 1788 on the bank of the Luján River in Argentina. The holotype specimen was then shipped to Spain the following year wherein it caught the attention of the esteemed paleontologist Georges Cuvier, who was the first to determine, by means of comparative anatomy, that Megatherium was a sloth. Megatherium became extinct around 12,000 years ago during the Quaternary extinction event, which also claimed most other large mammals in the New World. The extinction coincides with the settlement of the Americas, and a kill site where a M. americanum was slaughtered and butchered is known, suggesting that hunting could have caused its extinction.
Lang Yan: (Chinese Accent) BAMBOO STYLE NINJA ART: DWARF PANDA!
Lang punched the ground and a bunch of bamboo grew in seconds and they formed into the ancestor of the Giant Panda from 2 million years ago - the Dwarf Panda!
Ailuropoda microta is the earliest known ancestor of the giant panda. It measured 1 m (3 ft) in length; the modern giant panda grows to a size in excess of 1.5 m (5 ft). Wear patterns on its teeth suggest it lived on a diet of bamboo, the primary food of the giant panda. The first discovered skull of the animal in a south China limestone cave is estimated to be 2 million years old. The skull found is about half the size of a modern-day giant panda, but is anatomically very similar. This research suggests that the giant panda has evolved for more than 3 million years as a completely separate lineage from that of other bears.
Mao Yan: BAMBOO STYLE NINJA ART: GUANLONG!
Mao punched the ground and a bunch of bamboo grew and formed into the theropod from 160 million years ago: Guanlong!
Guanlong (冠龍) is a genus of extinct proceratosaurid tyrannosauroid from the Late Jurassic of China. The taxon was first described in 2006 by Xu Xing et al., who found it to represent a new taxon related to Tyrannosaurus. The name is derived from Chinese, translating as "crown dragon". Two individuals are currently known, a partially complete adult and a nearly complete juvenile. These specimens come from the Oxfordian stage of the Chinese Shishugou Formation.
Brock: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: DOEDICURUS!
Brock fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ancestral armadillo from 2 million to 7,000 years ago: DOEDICURUS!
Doedicurus, or Dædicurus, is an extinct genus of glyptodont from South America containing one species, D. clavicaudatus. Glyptodonts are a member of the family Chlamyphoridae, which also includes some modern armadillo species, and they are classified in the order Xenarthra alongside sloths and anteaters. Being a glyptodont, it was a rotund animal with heavy armor and a carapace. Averaging at an approximate 1,400 kg (3,100 lb), it was one of the largest glyptodonts to have ever lived. Though glyptodonts were quadrupeds, large ones like Doedicurus may have been able to stand on two legs like other xenarthrans. It notably sported a spiked tail club, which may have weighed 40 or 65 kg (88 or 143 lb) in life, and it may have swung this in defense against predators or in fights with other Doedicurus at speeds of perhaps 11 m/s (40 km/h; 25 mph).
Doedicurus was likely a grazer, but its teeth and mouth, like those of other glyptodonts, seem unable to have chewed grass effectively, which may indicate a slow metabolism. Doedicurus existed during the Pleistocene. Before this, South America had been isolated from the rest of the world, but the formation of the Isthmus of Panama allowed North American fauna to invade South America in the Great American Interchange, including big cats, bears, elephants, camels, and horses. Doedicurus seems to have inhabited the relatively cold and humid Chaco-Pampean plains of northeastern Patagonia. It may have been the latest-surviving glyptodont, with remains suggested to date to 8,000–7,000 years ago during the middle Holocene, though these dates have been questioned. It may have gone extinct due to some combination of human hunting and climate change.
Nora: (Spanish Accent) JUNGLE STYLE NINJA ART: CARNOTAURUS!
Nora fired a wave of grass and leaves and it formed into the ferocious theropod from 72 million years ago: Carnotaurus!
Carnotaurus /ˌkɑːrnoʊˈtɔːrəs/ is a genus of large theropod dinosaur that lived in South America during the Late Cretaceous period, between about 72 and 69.9 million years ago. The only species is Carnotaurus sastrei. Known from a single well-preserved skeleton, it is one of the best-understood theropods from the Southern Hemisphere. The skeleton, found in 1984, was uncovered in the Chubut Province of Argentina from rocks of the La Colonia Formation. Carnotaurus is a derived member of the Abelisauridae, a group of large theropods that occupied the large predatorial niche in the southern landmasses of Gondwana during the late Cretaceous. The phylogenetic relations of Carnotaurus are uncertain; it might have been closer to either Majungasaurus or Aucasaurus.
Carnotaurus was a lightly built, bipedal predator, measuring 7.5 to 9 m (24.6 to 29.5 ft) in length and weighing at least 1.35 metric tons (1.33 long tons; 1.49 short tons). As a theropod, Carnotaurus was highly specialized and distinctive. It had thick horns above the eyes, a feature unseen in all other carnivorous dinosaurs, and a very deep skull sitting on a muscular neck. Carnotaurus was further characterized by small, vestigial forelimbs and long, slender hindlimbs. The skeleton is preserved with extensive skin impressions, showing a mosaic of small, non-overlapping scales approximately 5 mm in diameter. The mosaic was interrupted by large bumps that lined the sides of the animal, and there are no hints of feathers.
The distinctive horns and the muscular neck may have been used in fighting conspecifics. According to separate studies, rivaling individuals may have combated each other with quick head blows, by slow pushes with the upper sides of their skulls, or by ramming each other head-on, using their horns as shock absorbers. The feeding habits of Carnotaurus remain unclear: some studies suggest the animal was able to hunt down very large prey such as sauropods, while other studies find it preyed mainly on relatively small animals. Carnotaurus was well adapted for running and was possibly one of the fastest large theropods.
Timmy Turner: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: DIMETRODON!
Timmy fired a wave of earth and it formed into the Permian reptilian mammal from 295 million years ago: Dimetrodon!
Dimetrodon (/daɪˈmiːtrədɒn/ (About this soundlisten) or /daɪˈmɛtrədɒn/, meaning "two measures of teeth") is an extinct genus of non-mammalian synapsid that lived during the Cisuralian (Early Permian), around 295–272 million years ago (Ma). It is a member of the family Sphenacodontidae. The most prominent feature of Dimetrodon is the large neural spine sail on its back formed by elongated spines extending from the vertebrae. It walked on four legs and had a tall, curved skull with large teeth of different sizes set along the jaws. Most fossils have been found in the southwestern United States, the majority coming from a geological deposit called the Red Beds of Texas and Oklahoma. More recently, fossils have been found in Germany. Over a dozen species have been named since the genus was first erected in 1878.
Dimetrodon is often mistaken for a dinosaur or as a contemporary of dinosaurs in popular culture, but it became extinct some 40 million years before the first appearance of dinosaurs. Reptile-like in appearance and physiology, Dimetrodon is nevertheless more closely related to mammals than to modern reptiles, though it is not a direct ancestor of mammals. Dimetrodon is assigned to the "non-mammalian synapsids", a group traditionally called "mammal-like reptiles". This groups Dimetrodon together with mammals in a clade (evolutionary group) called Synapsida, while placing dinosaurs, reptiles and birds in a separate clade, Sauropsida. Single openings in the skull behind each eye, known as temporal fenestrae, and other skull features distinguish Dimetrodon and mammals from most of the earliest sauropsids.
Dimetrodon was probably one of the apex predators of the Cisuralian ecosystems, feeding on fish and tetrapods, including reptiles and amphibians. Smaller Dimetrodon species may have had different ecological roles. The sail of Dimetrodon may have been used to stabilize its spine or to heat and cool its body as a form of thermoregulation. Some recent studies[citation needed] argue that the sail would have been ineffective at removing heat from the body due to large species being discovered with small sails and small species being discovered with large sails, essentially ruling out heat regulation as its main purpose. The sail was most likely used in courtship display with methods such as threatening rivals or showing off to potential mates.

Nantan: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: AUSTRALOPITHECUS AFARENSIS!
Nantan fired a wave of wind and it formed into one of our human ancestors on our evolutionary chain from 3 million years ago: Australopithecus Afarensis!
Australopithecus afarensis is an extinct species of australopithecine which lived from about 3.9–2.9 million years ago (mya) in the Pliocene of East Africa. The first fossils were discovered in the 1930s, but major fossil finds would not be discovered until the 1970s. In the 1972–1977 expedition in Hadar, Ethiopia, the International Afar Research Expedition led by anthropologists Maurice Taieb, Donald Johanson, and Yves Coppens unearthed several hundreds of hominin specimens, the most significant being the exceedingly well-preserved skeleton AL 288-1 ("Lucy") and the site AL 333 ("the First Family"). Beginning in 1974, Mary Leakey led an expedition into Laetoli, Tanzania, and recovered notably fossil trackways. In 1978, the species was first described, but this was followed by arguments for splitting the wealth of specimens into different species given the wide range of variation which had been attributed to sexual dimorphism (normal differences between males and females). A. afarensis probably descended from A. anamensis and possibly gave rise to Homo, though the latter hypothesis is not without dissent.
A. afarensis had a tall face, a delicate brow ridge, and prognathism (the jaw jutted outwards). The jawbone was quite robust, similar to that of gorillas. The living size of A. afarensis is debated, with arguments for and against marked size differences between males and females. Lucy measured perhaps 105 cm (3 ft 5 in) in height and 25–37 kg (55–82 lb), but she was rather small for her species. In contrast, a presumed male was estimated at 165 cm (5 ft 5 in) and 45 kg (99 lb). A perceived difference in male and female size may simply be sampling bias. The leg bones as well as the Laetoli fossil trackways suggest A. afarensis was a competent biped, though somewhat less efficient at walking than humans. The arm and shoulder bones have some similar aspects to those of orangutans and gorillas, which has variously been interpreted as either evidence of partial tree-dwelling (arboreality), or basal traits inherited from the human–chimp last common ancestor with no adaptive functionality.
A. afarensis was probably a generalist omnivore of both C3 forest plants and C4 CAM savanna plants—and perhaps creatures which ate such plants—and was able to exploit a variety of different food sources. Similarly, A. afarensis appears to have inhabited a wide range of habitats with no real preference, inhabiting open grasslands or woodlands, shrublands, and lake- or riverside forests. Potential evidence of stone tool use would indicate meat was also a dietary component. Marked sexual dimorphism in primates typically corresponds to a polygynous society and low dimorphism monogamy, but the group dynamics of early hominins is difficult to predict with accuracy. Early hominins may have fallen prey to the large carnivores of the time, such as big cats and hyenas.
Ronnie Anne: JUNGLE STYLE NINJA ART: BRACHIOSAURUS!
Ronnie Anne fired a wave of leaves and grass and it formed into the famous sauropod from 154 million years ago: Brachiosaurus!
Brachiosaurus (/ˌbrækiəˈsɔːrəs/) is a genus of sauropod dinosaur that lived in North America during the Late Jurassic, about 154–153 million years ago. It was first described by American paleontologist Elmer S. Riggs in 1903 from fossils found in the Colorado River valley in western Colorado, United States. Riggs named the dinosaur Brachiosaurus altithorax; the generic name is Greek for "arm lizard", in reference to its proportionately long arms, and the specific name means "deep chest". Brachiosaurus is estimated to have been between 18 and 21 meters (59 and 69 ft) long; weight estimates range from 28.3 to 58 metric tons (31.2 and 64 short tons). It had a disproportionately long neck, small skull, and large overall size, all of which are typical for sauropods. Atypically, Brachiosaurus had longer forelimbs than hindlimbs, which resulted in a steeply inclined trunk, and a proportionally shorter tail.
Brachiosaurus is the namesake genus of the family Brachiosauridae, which includes a handful of other similar sauropods. Most popular depictions of Brachiosaurus are in fact based on Giraffatitan, a genus of brachiosaurid dinosaur from the Tendaguru Formation of Tanzania. Giraffatitan was originally described by German paleontologist Werner Janensch in 1914 as a species of Brachiosaurus, B. brancai, but moved to its own genus in 2009. Three other species of Brachiosaurus have been named based on fossils found in Africa and Europe; two are no longer considered valid, and a third has become a separate genus, Lusotitan.
The type specimen of B. altithorax is still the most complete specimen, and only a few other specimens are thought to belong to the genus, making it one of the rarer sauropods of the Morrison Formation. It is regarded as a high browser, possibly cropping or nipping vegetation as high as 9 meters (30 ft) off the ground. Unlike other sauropods, it was unsuited for rearing on its hindlimbs. It has been used as an example of a dinosaur that was most likely ectothermic because of its large size and the corresponding need for sufficient forage, but more recent research suggests it was warm-blooded. Among the most iconic and initially thought to be one of the largest dinosaurs, Brachiosaurus has appeared in popular culture, notably in the 1993 film Jurassic Park.
Alexis Rhodes: ICE STYLE NINJA ART: AUSTRALOVENATOR!
Alexis fired a wave of ice and it formed into the theropod from 95 million years ago: Australovenator!
Australovenator (meaning "southern hunter") is a genus of megaraptorid theropod dinosaur from Cenomanian (Late Cretaceous)-age Winton Formation (dated to 95 million years ago) of Australia. It is known from partial cranial and postcranial remains which were described in 2009 by Scott Hocknull and colleagues, although additional descriptions and analyses continue to be published. It is the most complete predatory dinosaur discovered in Australia.
Ryan Holland: (British Accent) ICE STYLE NINJA ART: ANTHROPORNIS!
Ryan fired a wave of ice and it formed into one of the first giant penguins and ancestor of the Emperor Penguin from 45 million years ago: Anthropornis!
Anthropornis is a genus of giant penguin that lived 45-33 million years ago, during the Late Eocene and the earliest part of the Oligocene.[1] It reached 1.8 m (5 ft 11 in) in height and 90 kg (200 lb) in weight. Fossils of it have been found in the La Meseta Formation on Seymour Island off the coast of Antarctica and in New Zealand. By comparison, the largest modern penguin species, the emperor penguin, is just 1.2 m (3 ft 11 in) tall.
The type species, Anthropornis nordenskjoldi, had a bent joint in the wing, probably a carryover from flying ancestors.
Eloá: (Brazilian Accent) JUNGLE STYLE NINJA ART: GASTORNIS!
Eloá fired a wave of leaves and grass and it formed into the terror bird of 56 million years ago: Gastornis!
Gastornis is an extinct genus of large flightless birds that lived during the late Paleocene and Eocene epochs of the Cenozoic era. The genus is currently thought to contain three or four distinct species, known from incomplete fossil remains, found in western-central Europe (England, Belgium, France and Germany). More complete specimens are known from a fourth, North American species, which had previously been classified in the distinct genus Diatryma. Many scientists now consider Diatryma to be so similar to the other species of Gastornis that it should also be included in that genus. A fifth species, also previously classified in its own genus, is known from China.
Gastornis species were very large birds, and have traditionally been considered to be predators of small mammals. However, several lines of evidence, including the lack of hooked claws in known Gastornis footprints and studies of their beak structure have caused scientists to reinterpret these birds as herbivores that probably fed on tough plant material and seeds.
Lucy Loud: DARK STYLE NINJA ART: PHORUSRHACOS TERROR BIRD!
Lucy fired a wave of darkness and it formed into the Terror Bird of 20 million years ago: Phorusrhacos!
Phorusrhacos (/ˌfɔːrəsˈrɑːkɒs/ FOR-əs-RAH-koss) is an extinct genus of giant flightless terror birds that inhabited Argentina during the Miocene epoch. Phorusrhacos was one of the dominant land predators in South America at the time it existed. It is thought to have lived in woodlands and grasslands.
Haiku: DARK STYLE NINJA ART: TITANIS TERROR BIRD!
Haiku fired a wave of darkness and it formed into the ferocious giant terror bird of 5 million years ago: Titanis!
Titanis is an extinct genus of giant flightless terror birds that inhabited North America during the early Pliocene to early Pleistocene epochs. The generic name, Titanis, refers to the titans, Ancient Greek gods that preceded the Twelve Olympians, in allusion to the bird's size. The specific name, T. walleri, honors the holotype's collector, Benjamin I. Waller, an avocational underwater archaeologist. Titanis was thought to be carnivorous and most likely preyed on the many small mammals of the time period. This giant flightless bird was one of the most efficient predators of its time in North America.
Dante: DARK STYLE NINJA ART: ICARONYCTERIS!
Dante fired a wave of darkness and it formed into the first ever ancestral bats from 52.2 million years ago: Icaronycteris!
caronycteris is an extinct genus of microchiropteran (echolocating) bat that lived in the early Eocene, approximately 52.2 million years ago, making it the earliest known definitive bat. Four exceptionally preserved specimens, among the best preserved bat fossils, are known from the Green River Formation of North America. There is only one thoroughly described species of bat in the genus, I. index, although fragmentary material from France has also been tentatively placed within Icaronycteris as the second species I. menui. I. sigei is based on well-preserved fragments of dentaries and lower teeth found in Western India.

Kelenken is a genus of giant flightless predatory birds of the extinct family Phorusrhacidae, or "terror birds". The type and only species is K. guillermoi, first formally described in 2007 after the find in 1999. It is the largest known member of the family.
Lola: FIRESTORM STYLE NINJA ART: BAJADASAURUS!
Lola fired a wave of fire and it formed into the newly discovered dinosaurs from 140 million years ago: Bajadasaurus!
Bajadasaurus is a genus of sauropod dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous epoch (late Berriasian to Valanginian stages) of northern Patagonia, Argentina. It was first described in 2019 based on a single specimen found in 2010 that includes a largely complete skull and parts of the neck. The only species is Bajadasaurus pronuspinax. The genus is classified as a member of the Dicraeosauridae, a group of comparatively small and short-necked sauropods that lived from the Early or Middle Jurassic to the end of the Early Cretaceous.
Bajadasaurus sported bifurcated, extremely elongated neural spines extending from the neck vertebrae. Similar elongated spines are known from the closely related and more completely known Amargasaurus. Various possible functions have been proposed for these spines in Amargasaurus, with the 2019 description of Bajadasaurus suggesting that they could have served as passive defense against predators in both genera. The skull was gracile and equipped with around 44 teeth that were pencil-shaped and restricted to the front of the jaws. The eye openings of Bajadasaurus were exposed in top view of the skull, possibly allowing the animal to look forwards while feeding. Bajadasaurus was discovered in sedimentary rocks of the Bajada Colorada Formation, and its environment resembled a braided river system. It shared its environment with other dinosaurs including the sauropod Leinkupal and different theropods.
Lily: OCEAN STYLE NINJA ART: MOSASAURUS!
Lily fired a wave of water and it formed into the marine reptile from 87 million years ago: Mosasaurus!
Mosasaurus (/ˌmoʊzəˈsɔːrəs/; "lizard of the Meuse River") is the type genus of the mosasaurs, an extinct group of aquatic squamate reptiles. The genus lived from about 82 to 66 million years ago during the Campanian and Maastrichtian stages of the Late Cretaceous. The earliest fossils known to science were found as skulls in a chalk quarry near the Dutch city of Maastricht in the late 1700s, which were initially thought to have been the bones of crocodiles or whales. One particular skull discovered at around 1780, and which was seized during the French Revolutionary Wars for its scientific value and transported to Paris, was famously nicknamed the "great animal of Maastricht". In 1808, naturalist Georges Cuvier concluded that it belonged to a giant marine lizard with similarities to monitor lizards but otherwise unlike any animal known today. This concept was revolutionary at the time and helped support the then-developing ideas of extinction. However, Cuvier did not designate a scientific name for the new animal; this task was completed by William Daniel Conybeare in 1822 when he named it Mosasaurus in reference to its origin in fossil deposits near the Meuse River. The relationships between Mosasaurus and modern reptiles are controversial and scientists continue to debate whether its closest living relatives are monitor lizards or snakes.
Traditional interpretations have estimated the maximum length of Mosasaurus to be up to 17.6 meters (58 ft), making it one of the largest mosasaur genera. Its skull, which was either broad or slender depending on the species, was equipped with robust jaws capable of swinging back and forth and strong muscles capable of powerful bites using dozens of large teeth designed for cutting prey. Its tail was long and ended in a paddle-like fluke that bent downwards. Mosasaurus was a predator that had excellent vision to compensate for its poor sense of smell, and a high metabolic rate that suggests it was warm-blooded, an adaptation found in other mosasaurs but no other squamates. The classification of Mosasaurus was historically problematic due to an unclear diagnosis of the type specimen. As a result, over fifty different species have been attributed to the genus in the past. A rediagnosis of the type specimen in 2017 helped resolve the taxonomy issue and confirmed at least five species to be within the genus and another five species still nominally classified within Mosasaurus are planned to be reassessed in a future study. Each species was variable with unique anatomical features differentiating them from the robustly-built M. hoffmannii to the slender and serpentine M. lemonnieri.
Fossil evidence suggests that Mosasaurus inhabited much of the Atlantic Ocean and the seaways adjacent to it. Continents that have recovered Mosasaurus fossils include North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Western Asia, and Antarctica. This distribution encompassed a wide range of oceanic climates including tropical, subtropical, temperate, and subpolar climates. Mosasaurus was a common large predator in these oceans and a dominant genus positioned at the top of the food chain. Scientists believe that its diet would have included virtually anything; it likely preyed on bony fish, sharks, cephalopods, birds, and other marine reptiles including sea turtles and other mosasaurs. It likely preferred to hunt in open water near the surface. From an ecological standpoint, Mosasaurus probably had a profound impact in the structuring of marine ecosystems; its arrival in some locations such as the Western Interior Seaway in North America has been marked with a complete turnover of faunal assemblages and diversity. Mosasaurus faced competition with other large predatory mosasaurs such as Prognathodon and Tylosaurus—which are known to feed on similar prey—though they were able to coexist in the same ecosystems through niche partitioning. There were conflicts among them, as an attack on Mosasaurus by Tylosaurus has been documented. Several discovered fossils illustrated deliberate attacks on Mosasaurus individuals by another of the same species. Infighting likely took place in the form of snout grappling, similarly seen in modern crocodiles today.
Qin: BAMBOO STYLE NINJA ART: MAMENCHISAURUS!
Qin punched the ground and a bunch of bamboo grew and formed into one of the largest sauropods from 161 million years ago: Mamenchisaurus!
Mamenchisaurus (/mɑːˈmɛntʃiˈsɔːrəs/ mah-MUN-chi-SAWR-əs, or spelling pronunciation /məˌmɛntʃiˈsɔːrəs/) is a genus of sauropod dinosaur including several species, known for their remarkably long necks[3] which made up half the total body length. It is known from numerous species which ranged in time from 160 to 145 million years ago, from the Oxfordian age of late Jurassic Period in China. The largest species, which according to Gregory S. Paul was M. sinocanadorum, may have reached 35 m (115 ft) in length and possibly weighed 50-80 tonnes (55-88 short tons).

Rainbow Dash: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: HAAST'S EAGLE!
Rainbow Dash fired a wave of wind and it formed into the one of the ancestral eagles from 1.8 million to 700,000 years ago: The Haast's Eagle!
The Haast's eagle (Hieraaetus moorei, synonym Harpagornis moorei) is an extinct species of eagle that once lived in the South Island of New Zealand, commonly accepted to be the pouakai of Maori legend. The species was the largest eagle known to have existed, with an estimated weight of 15 kilograms (33 lb) nearly double that of the Harpy eagle at 9 kilograms (20 lb). Its massive size is explained as an evolutionary response to the size of its prey, the flightless moa, the largest of which could weigh 230 kg (510 lb). Haast's eagle became extinct around 1400, after the moa were hunted to extinction by the first Māori.
Shrek: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: DEINOSUCHUS!
Shrek fired a wave of water and it formed into one of the first crocodiles from 82 million years ago: Deinosuchus!
Deinosuchus (/ˌdaɪnəˈsjuːkəs/) is an extinct genus of crocodilian related to the modern alligator that lived 82 to 73 million years ago (Ma), during the late Cretaceous period. The name translates as "terrible crocodile" and is derived from the Greek deinos (δεινός), "terrible", and soukhos (σοῦχος), "crocodile". The first remains were discovered in North Carolina (United States) in the 1850s; the genus was named and described in 1909. Additional fragments were discovered in the 1940s and were later incorporated into an influential, though inaccurate, skull reconstruction at the American Museum of Natural History. Knowledge of Deinosuchus remains incomplete, but better cranial material found in recent years has expanded scientific understanding of this massive predator.
Although Deinosuchus was far larger than any modern crocodile or alligator, with the largest adults measuring 12 meters (39 ft) in total length, its overall appearance was fairly similar to its smaller relatives. It had large, robust teeth built for crushing, and its back was covered with thick hemispherical osteoderms. One study indicated Deinosuchus may have lived for up to 50 years, growing at a rate similar to that of modern crocodilians, but maintaining this growth over a much longer time.
Deinosuchus fossils have been described from 10 U.S. states, including Texas, Montana, and many along the East Coast. Fossils have also been found in northern Mexico. It lived on both sides of the Western Interior Seaway, and was an opportunistic apex predator in the coastal regions of eastern North America. Deinosuchus reached its largest size in its western habitat, but the eastern populations were far more abundant. Opinion remains divided as to whether these two populations represent separate species. Deinosuchus was probably capable of killing and eating large dinosaurs. It may have also fed upon sea turtles, fish, and other aquatic and terrestrial prey.
Lincoln: ICE STYLE NINJA ART: GORGOSAURUS!
Lincoln fired a wave of ice and it formed into the Theropod from 76.6 million years ago: Gorgosaurus!
Gorgosaurus (/ˌɡɔːrɡəˈsɔːrəs/ GOR-gə-SOR-əs; meaning "dreadful lizard") is a genus of tyrannosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived in western North America during the Late Cretaceous Period (Campanian), between about 76.6 and 75.1 million years ago. Fossil remains have been found in the Canadian province of Alberta and possibly the U.S. state of Montana. Paleontologists recognize only the type species, G. libratus, although other species have been erroneously referred to the genus.
Like most known tyrannosaurids, Gorgosaurus was a bipedal predator weighing more than two metric tons as an adult; dozens of large, sharp teeth lined its jaws, while its two-fingered forelimbs were comparatively small. Gorgosaurus was most closely related to Albertosaurus, and more distantly related to the larger Tyrannosaurus. Gorgosaurus and Albertosaurus are extremely similar, distinguished mainly by subtle differences in the teeth and skull bones. Some experts consider G. libratus to be a species of Albertosaurus; this would make Gorgosaurus a junior synonym of that genus.
Gorgosaurus lived in a lush floodplain environment along the edge of an inland sea. It was an apex predator, preying upon abundant ceratopsids and hadrosaurs. In some areas, Gorgosaurus coexisted with another tyrannosaurid, Daspletosaurus. Although these animals were roughly the same size, there is some evidence of niche differentiation between the two. Gorgosaurus is the best-represented tyrannosaurid in the fossil record, known from dozens of specimens. These plentiful remains have allowed scientists to investigate its ontogeny, life history and other aspects of its biology.

Gorgonops (from Greek Γοργών 'Gorgon' and ὤψ 'eye, face', literally "Gorgon eye" or "Gorgon face") is an extinct genus of therapsid which lived about 260-254 million years ago, during the Late Permian. It was a typical representative of the suborder Gorgonopsia, the dominant predators of their day, which in the largest forms grew to over three metres long.

Lycaenops ("wolf-face") is a genus of carnivorous therapsids. It lived during the late mid-Permian to the early Late Permian, about 270.6-251 mya, in what is now South Africa.
Warren: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: SCUTOSAURUS!
Warren fired a wave of earth and it formed into the parareptile from 265 million years ago: Scutosaurus!
Scutosaurus ("Shield lizard") was a genus of parareptiles. It was an armor-covered pareiasaur that lived around 265–254 million years ago in Russia, in the later Permian period. Its genus name refers to large plates of armor scattered across its body. It was a large anapsid reptile that, unlike most reptiles, held its legs underneath its body to support its great weight. Fossils have been found in the Sokolki Assemblage Zone of the Malokinelskaya Formation in European Russia, close to the Ural Mountains.
Bart: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: DINOGORGON!
Bart fired a wave of earth and it formed into the Gorgonopsid from 259 million years ago: Dinogorgon!
Dinogorgon is a genus of gorgonopsid from the Late Permian of South Africa and Tanzania. The generic name Dinogorgon is derived from Greek, meaning "terrible gorgon", while its species name rubidgei is taken from the surname of renowned Karoo paleontologist, Professor Bruce Rubidge, who has contributed to much of the research conducted on therapsids of the Karoo Basin. The type species of the genus is D. rubidgei.
Dinogorgon is part of the gorgonopsian subfamily Rubidgeinae, a derived group of large-bodied gorgonopsians restricted to the Late Permian (Lopingian). The Rubidgeinae subfamily first appeared in the Tropidostoma Assemblage Zone, and reached their highest diversity in the Cistecephalus and Daptocephalus assemblage zones of the Beaufort Group in South Africa.
Homer: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: EDAPHOSAURUS!
Homer fired a wave of earth and it formed into Dimetrodon-like synapsid from 303.4 million years ago: Edaphosaurus!
Edaphosaurus (/ˌɛdəfoʊˈsɔːrəs/, meaning "pavement lizard" for dense clusters of teeth) is a genus of extinct edaphosaurid synapsids that lived in what is now North America and Europe around 303.4 to 272.5 million years ago, during the late Carboniferous to early Permian periods. American paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope first described Edaphosaurus in 1882, naming it for the "dental pavement" on both the upper and lower jaws, from the Greek edaphos έδαφος ("ground"; also "pavement") and σαῦρος (sauros) ("lizard").
Edaphosaurus is important as one of the earliest-known, large, plant-eating (herbivorous), amniote tetrapods (four-legged land-living vertebrates). In addition to the large tooth plates in its jaws, the most characteristic feature of Edaphosaurus is a sail on its back. A number of other synapsids from the same time period also have tall dorsal sails, most famously the large apex predator Dimetrodon. However, the sail on Edaphosaurus is different in shape and morphology. The first fossils of Edaphosaurus came from the Texas Red Beds in North America, with later finds in New Mexico, Oklahoma, West Virginia, and Ohio. Fragmentary fossils attributed to Edaphosaurus have also been found in eastern Germany in Central Europe.
Tabby: FOREST STYLE NINJA ART: DILOPHOSAURUS!
Tabby fired a wave of leaves and water and it formed into the theropod from 193 million years ago: Dilophosaurus!
Dilophosaurus (/daɪˌloʊfəˈsɔːrəs, -foʊ-/ dy-LOHF-o-SOR-əs) is a genus of theropod dinosaurs that lived in what is now North America during the Early Jurassic, about 193 million years ago. Three skeletons were discovered in northern Arizona in 1940, and the two best preserved were collected in 1942. The most complete specimen became the holotype of a new species in the genus Megalosaurus, named M. wetherilli by Samuel P. Welles in 1954. Welles found a larger skeleton belonging to the same species in 1964. Realizing it bore crests on its skull, he assigned the species to the new genus Dilophosaurus in 1970, as Dilophosaurus wetherilli. The genus name means "two-crested lizard", and the species name honors John Wetherill, a Navajo councilor. Further specimens have since been found, including an infant.
Footprints have also been attributed to the animal, including resting traces. Another species, Dilophosaurus sinensis from China, was named in 1993, but was later found to belong to the genus Sinosaurus. It was designated as the state dinosaur of Connecticut based on tracks found there.
At about 7 m (23 ft) in length, with a weight of about 400 kg (880 lb), Dilophosaurus was one of the earliest large predatory dinosaurs and the largest known land-animal in North America at the time. It was slender and lightly built, and the skull was proportionally large, but delicate. The snout was narrow, and the upper jaw had a gap or kink below the nostril. It had a pair of longitudinal, plate-shaped crests on its skull, similar to a cassowary with two crests. The mandible was slender and delicate at the front, but deep at the back. The teeth were long, curved, thin, and compressed sideways. Those in the lower jaw were much smaller than those of the upper jaw. Most of the teeth had serrations at their front and back edges. The neck was long, and its vertebrae were hollow, and very light. The arms were powerful, with a long and slender upper arm bone. The hands had four fingers; the first was short but strong and bore a large claw, the two following fingers were longer and slenderer with smaller claws; the fourth was vestigial. The thigh bone was massive, the feet were stout, and the toes bore large claws.
Dilophosaurus is a member of the family Dilophosauridae along with Dracovenator, a group placed between the Coelophysidae and later theropods. Dilophosaurus would have been active and bipedal, and may have hunted large animals; it could also have fed on smaller animals and fish. Due to the limited range of movement and shortness of the fore limbs, the mouth may instead have made first contact with prey. The function of the crests is unknown; they were too weak for battle, but may have been used in visual display, such as species recognition and sexual selection. It may have grown rapidly, attaining a growth rate of 30 to 35 kg (66 to 77 lb) per year early in life. The holotype specimen had multiple paleopathologies, including healed injuries and signs of a developmental anomaly. Dilophosaurus is known from the Kayenta Formation, and lived alongside dinosaurs such as Megapnosaurus and Sarahsaurus.
Dilophosaurus was featured in the novel Jurassic Park and its movie adaptation, wherein it was given the fictional abilities to spit venom and expand a neck frill, as well as being smaller than the real animal.
Kipo: HORIZON STYLE NINJA ART: AMERICAN LION!
Kipo fired a wave of red and purple energy and it formed into the Ice Age lions from 340,000 to 11,000 years ago: The American Lions!
The American lion (Panthera atrox), also known as the "North American lion", or "American cave lion", is an extinct pantherine cat that lived in North America during the Pleistocene epoch and the early Holocene epoch, about 340,000 to 11,000 years ago. Its fossils have been excavated from Alaska to Mexico. Genetic analysis has shown that the American lion and the Late Pleistocene Eurasian cave lion (Panthera spelaea) are sister lineages. It was about 25% larger than the modern lion, making it one of the largest known felids.

Camarasaurus (/ˌkæmərəˈsɔːrəs/ KAM-ər-ə-SAWR-əs) was a genus of quadrupedal, herbivorous dinosaurs. It was the most common of the giant sauropods to be found in North America. Its fossil remains have been found in the Morrison Formation of Colorado and Utah, dating to the Late Jurassic epoch (Kimmeridgian to Tithonian stages), between 155 and 145 million years ago.
Camarasaurus presented a distinctive cranial profile of a blunt snout and an arched skull that was remarkably square. It likely travelled in herds, or at least in family groups.
The name means "chambered lizard", referring to the hollow chambers in its vertebrae (Greek καμαρα (kamara) meaning "vaulted chamber", or anything with an arched cover, and σαυρος (sauros) meaning "lizard").
Naruto: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: QUETZALCOATLUS!
Naruto fired a wave of wind and it formed into the largest flying reptile that ever lived from 68 million years ago: Quetzalcoatlus!
Quetzalcoatlus /kɛtsəlkoʊˈætləs/ is a pterosaur known from the Late Cretaceous of North America (Maastrichtian stage) and one of the biggest known flying animals of all time. It is a member of the family Azhdarchidae, a family of advanced toothless pterosaurs with unusually long, stiffened necks. Its name comes from the Aztec feathered serpent god, Quetzalcoatl. The type and only species is Q. northropi.
Hinata: ICE STYLE NINJA ART: PACHYRHINOSAURUS!
Hinata fired a wave of ice and it formed into the ceratopsian from 73.5 million years ago: Pachyrhinosaurus!
Pachyrhinosaurus (meaning in Greek "thick-nosed lizard", from Παχυ (pachy), thick; ρινό (rinó), nose; and σαυρος (sauros), lizard) is an extinct genus of centrosaurine ceratopsid dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous period of North America. The first examples were discovered by Charles M. Sternberg in Alberta, Canada, in 1946, and named in 1950. Over a dozen partial skulls and a large assortment of other fossils from various species have been found in Alberta and Alaska. A great number were not available for study until the 1980s, resulting in a relatively recent increase of interest in Pachyrhinosaurus.
Three species have been identified. P. lakustai, from the Wapiti Formation, the bonebed horizon of which is roughly equivalent age to the upper Bearpaw and lower Horseshoe Canyon Formations, is known to have existed from about 73.5–72.5 million years ago. P. canadensis is younger, known from the lower Horseshoe Canyon Formation, about 71.5–71 Ma ago and the St. Mary River Formation. Fossils of the youngest species, P. perotorum, have been recovered from the Prince Creek Formation of Alaska, and date to 70–69 Ma ago. The presence of three known species makes this genus the most speciose among the centrosaurines.
Kiba: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: POSTOSUCHUS!
Kiba fired a wave of earth and it formed into the rauisuchid from 221 million years ago: Postosuchus!
Postosuchus, meaning "Crocodile from Post", is an extinct genus of rauisuchid reptiles comprising two species, P. kirkpatricki and P. alisonae, that lived in what is now North America during the Late Triassic. Postosuchus is a member of the clade Pseudosuchia, the lineage of archosaurs that includes modern crocodilians (the other main group of archosaurs is Avemetatarsalia, the lineage that includes non-avian dinosaurs and their descendants, birds). Its name refers to Post Quarry, a place in Texas where many fossils of the type species, P. kirkpatricki, were found. It was one of the apex predators of its area during the Triassic, larger than the small dinosaur predators of its time (such as Coelophysis). It was a hunter which probably preyed on large large bulky herbivores like dicynodonts and many other creatures smaller than itself (such as early dinosaurs).
The skeleton of Postosuchus is large and robust with a deep skull and a long tail. The total body length is about 4 to 5 metres (13 to 16 ft). The extreme shortness of the forelimbs relative to the hind limbs, the very small hands, and measurements of the vertebrae suggest that Postosuchus may have been committed to bipedal locomotion.
Rock Lee: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: MOSCHOPS!
Rock Lee fired a wave of earth and it formed into the therapsid from 265 million years ago: Moschops!
Moschops (Greek for "calf face") is an extinct genus of therapsids that lived in the Guadalupian epoch, around 265–260 million years ago. They were heavily built plant eaters, and they may have lived partly in water, as hippopotamuses do. They had short, thick heads and might have competed by head-butting each other. Their elbow joints allowed them to walk with a more mammal-like gait rather than crawling. Their remains were found in the Karoo region of South Africa, belonging to the Tapinocephalus Assemblage Zone. Therapsids, such as Moschops, are synapsids, the dominant land animals in the Permian period, which ended 252 million years ago.
Tenten: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: ANKYLOSAURUS!
Tenten fired a wave of earth and it formed into the armored dinosaur from 68 million years ago: Ankylosaurus!
Ankylosaurus is a genus of armored dinosaur. Its fossils have been found in geological formations dating to the very end of the Cretaceous Period, about 68–66 million years ago, in western North America, making it among the last of the non-avian dinosaurs. It was named by Barnum Brown in 1908; the only species in the genus is A. magniventris. The genus name means "fused lizard", and the specific name means "great belly". A handful of specimens have been excavated to date, but a complete skeleton has not been discovered. Though other members of Ankylosauria are represented by more extensive fossil material, Ankylosaurus is often considered the archetypal member of its group, despite having some unusual features.
Possibly the largest-known ankylosaurid, Ankylosaurus is estimated to have been between 6 and 8 meters (20 and 26 ft) long and to have weighed between 4.8 and 8 metric tons (5.3 and 8.8 short tons). It was quadrupedal, with a broad, robust body. It had a wide, low skull, with two horns pointing backward from the back of the head, and two horns below these that pointed backward and down. Unlike other ankylosaurs, its nostrils faced sideways rather than towards the front. The front part of the jaws was covered in a beak, with rows of small, leaf-shaped teeth farther behind it. It was covered in armor plates, or osteoderms, with bony half-rings covering the neck, and had a large club on the end of its tail. Bones in the skull and other parts of the body were fused, increasing their strength, and this feature is the source of the genus name.
Ankylosaurus is a member of the family Ankylosauridae, and its closest relatives appear to be Anodontosaurus and Euoplocephalus. Ankylosaurus is thought to have been a slow-moving animal, able to make quick movements when necessary. Its broad muzzle indicates it was a non-selective browser. Sinuses and nasal chambers in the snout may have been for heat and water balance or may have played a role in vocalization. The tail club is thought to have been used in defense against predators or in intraspecific combat. Ankylosaurus has been found in the Hell Creek, Lance, Scollard, Frenchman, and Ferris formations, but appears to have been rare in its environment. Although it lived alongside a nodosaurid ankylosaur, their ranges and ecological niches do not appear to have overlapped, and Ankylosaurus may have inhabited upland areas. Ankylosaurus also lived alongside dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, and Edmontosaurus.
Neji: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: GASTONIA!
Neji fired a wave of earth and it formed into the armored dinosaur from 139 million years ago: Gastonia!
Gastonia is a genus of herbivorous ankylosaurian dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous of North America, around 125 million years ago. It is often considered a nodosaurid closely related to Polacanthus. Gastonia has a sacral shield and large shoulder spikes.
Ino: FIRE STYLE NINJA ART: MASSOSPONDYLUS!
Ino fired a wave of fire and it formed into the sauropodomorph dinosaur from 200 million years ago: Massospondylus!
Massospondylus (/ˌmæsoʊˈspɒndɪləs/ mas-oh-SPON-di-ləs; from Greek, μάσσων (massōn, "longer") and σπόνδυλος (spondylos, "vertebra")) is a genus of sauropodomorph dinosaur from the Early Jurassic Period (Hettangian to Pliensbachian ages, ca. 200–183 million years ago). It was described by Sir Richard Owen in 1854 from remains discovered in South Africa, and is thus one of the first dinosaurs to have been named. Fossils have since been found at other locations in South Africa, Lesotho, and Zimbabwe. Material from Arizona's Kayenta Formation, India, and Argentina has been assigned to this genus at various times, but the Arizonan and Argentinian material are now assigned to other genera.
The type species is M. carinatus; seven other species have been named during the past 150 years, but only M. kaalae among these is still considered valid. Early sauropodomorphs systematics have undergone numerous revisions during the last several years, and many scientists disagree where exactly Massospondylus lies on the dinosaur evolutionary tree. The family name Massospondylidae was once coined for the genus, but because knowledge of early sauropodomorph relationships is in a state of flux, it is unclear which other dinosaurs—if any—belong in a natural grouping of massospondylids; several 2007 papers support the family's validity.
Although Massospondylus was long depicted as quadrupedal, a 2007 study found it to be bipedal. It was probably a plant eater (herbivore), although it is speculated that the early sauropodomorphs may have been omnivorous. This animal, which was 4–6 metres (13–20 ft) long, had a long neck and tail, with a small head and slender body. On each of its forefeet, it bore a sharp thumb claw that was used in defense or feeding. Recent studies indicate that Massospondylus grew steadily throughout its lifespan, possessed air sacs similar to those of birds, and may have cared for its young.
Haku: ICE STYLE NINJA ART: AMERICAN MASTODON!
Haku fired a wave of ice and it formed into the ancestral elephant of the Great Ice Age from 5.3 million to 10,000 years ago: The American Mastodon!
A mastodon (Greek: μαστός "breast" and ὀδούς, "tooth") is any proboscidean belonging to the extinct genus Mammut (family Mammutidae) that inhabited North and Central America during the late Miocene or late Pliocene up to their extinction at the end of the Pleistocene 10,000 to 11,000 years ago. Mastodons lived in herds and were predominantly forest-dwelling animals that lived on a mixed diet obtained by browsing and grazing, somewhat similar to their distant relatives, modern elephants, but probably with greater emphasis on browsing.
M. americanum, the American mastodon, and M. pacificus, the Pacific mastodon, are the youngest and best-known species of the genus. Mastodons disappeared from North America as part of a mass extinction of most of the Pleistocene megafauna, widely believed to have been caused by overexploitation by Clovis hunters.
Sasuke: LIGHTNING STYLE NINJA ART: COMPSOGNATHUS!
Sasuke fired a wave of lightning and it formed into the fast carnivore from 150.8 million years ago: Compsognathus!
Compsognathus (/kɒmpˈsɒɡnəθəs/; Greek kompsos/κομψός; "elegant", "refined" or "dainty", and gnathos/γνάθος; "jaw") is a genus of small, bipedal, carnivorous theropod dinosaur. Members of its single species Compsognathus longipes could grow to around the size of a turkey. They lived about 150 million years ago, during the Tithonian age of the late Jurassic period, in what is now Europe. Paleontologists have found two well-preserved fossils, one in Germany in the 1850s and the second in France more than a century later. Today, C. longipes is the only recognized species, although the larger specimen discovered in France in the 1970s was once thought to belong to a separate species and named C. corallestris.
Many presentations still describe Compsognathus as "chicken-sized" dinosaurs because of the size of the German specimen, which is now believed to be a juvenile. Compsognathus longipes is one of the few dinosaur species whose diet is known with certainty: the remains of small, agile lizards are preserved in the bellies of both specimens. Teeth discovered in Portugal may be further fossil remains of the genus.
Although not recognized as such at the time of its discovery, Compsognathus is the first theropod dinosaur known from a reasonably complete fossil skeleton. Until the 1990s, it was the smallest-known non-avialan dinosaur, with the preceding centuries incorrectly labelling them as the closest relative of Archaeopteryx.
Sakura Haruno: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: TITANOSAURUS!
Sakura fired a wave of earth and it formed into the huge sauropod from 70 million years ago: Titanosaurus!
Titanosaurus (meaning 'titanic lizard' – named after the mythological Titans, deities of Ancient Greece) is a dubious genus of sauropod dinosaurs, first described by Lydekker in 1877. It is known from the Maastrichtian (Upper Cretaceous) Lameta Formation of India.
Fu: ARTHROPOD STYLE NINJA ART: BRONTOSCORPIO!
Fu fired a wave of energy and it formed into the Silurian early scorpions from over 423 million years ago: Brontoscorpio!
Brontoscorpio anglicus is a species of fossil scorpion. Its remains were discovered in Upper Silurian-aged sandstone from Trimpley, Worcestershire, and the species was described on the basis of an incomplete single free finger of a pedipalp, almost 10 centimetres (3.9 in) long. The complete animal is estimated to have been at least 90 centimetres (35 in) long.
The remains were found in terrestrial sediments, but it is believed, that due to its size, Brontoscorpio had to enter the water to molt. Possibly it lived a semi or fully aquatic life.
Shino: ARTHROPOD STYLE NINJA ART: ARTHROPLEURA!
Shino fired a wave of energy and it formed into the Carboniferous Trilobite from 345 million years ago: Arthropleura!
Arthropleura (Greek for jointed ribs) is a genus of extinct millipede arthropods that lived in what is now northeastern North America and Scotland around 345 to 295 million years ago, from the Viséan stage of the lower Carboniferous Period to the Asselian stage of the lower Permian Period. The larger species of the genus are the largest known land invertebrates of all time, and would have had few, if any, predators.
Zabuza: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: SARCOSUCHUS!
Zabuza fired a wave of water and it formed into the largest crocodilian dinosaur ever known from 133 million years ago: Sarcosuchus!
Sarcosuchus (/ˌsɑːrkoʊˈsuːkəs/; meaning "flesh crocodile") is an extinct genus of crocodyliform and distant relative of living crocodylians that lived during the Early Cretaceous, from the late Hauterivian to the early Albian, 133 to 112 million years ago of what is now Africa and South America. It was one of the largest crocodile-line reptiles, reaching an average estimate of 9 m (30 ft) and 3.5 metric tons (3.9 short tons), but estimated to grow up to 9.5 m (31 ft) in body length and weigh up to 4.3 metric tons (4.7 short tons). It is known from two species, S. imperator from the early Albian Elrhaz Formation of Niger and S. hartti from the Late Hauterivian of northeastern Brazil, other material is known from Morocco and Tunisia and possibly Libya and Mali.
The first remains were discovered during several expeditions led by the French paleontologist Albert-Félix de Lapparent, spanning from 1946 to 1959, in the Sahara. These remains were fragments of the skull, vertebrae, teeth, and scutes. In 1964, an almost complete skull was found in Niger by the French CEA, but it was not until 1997 and 2000 that most of its anatomy became known to science, when an expedition led by the American paleontologist Paul Sereno discovered six new specimens, including one with about half the skeleton intact and most of the spine.
Kabuto: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: PARASAUROLOPHUS!
Kabuto fired a wave of water and it formed into a herd of beautiful hadrosaurs from 76.5 million years ago: Parasaurolophus!
Parasaurolophus (/ˌpærəsɔːˈrɒləfəs, -ˌsɔːrəˈloʊfəs/; meaning "near crested lizard" in reference to Saurolophus) is a genus of herbivorous ornithopod dinosaur that lived in what is now North America and possibly Asia during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 76.5–73 million years ago. It was an herbivore that walked both as a biped and as a quadruped. Three species are universally recognized: P. walkeri (the type species), P. tubicen, and the short-crested P. cyrtocristatus. Additionally, a fourth species, P. jiayensis, has been proposed, although it is more commonly placed in the separate genus Charonosaurus. Remains are known from Alberta (Canada), New Mexico and Utah (United States), and possibly Heilongjiang, (China). The genus was first described in 1922 by William Parks from a skull and partial skeleton found in Alberta.
Parasaurolophus was a hadrosaurid, part of a diverse family of Cretaceous dinosaurs known for their range of bizarre head adornments. This genus is known for its large, elaborate cranial crest, which at its largest forms a long curved tube projecting upwards and back from the skull. Charonosaurus from China, which may have been its closest relative, had a similar skull and potentially a similar crest. Visual recognition of both species and sex, acoustic resonance, and thermoregulation have been proposed as functional explanations for the crest. It is one of the rarer hadrosaurids, known from only a handful of good specimens.
Finn: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: LAMBEOSAURUS!
Finn fired a wave of water and it formed into a heard of hadrosaurs from 76 million years ago: Lambeosaurus!
Lambeosaurus (/ˌlæmbioʊˈsɔːrəs/ LAM-bee-o-SAWR-əs; meaning "Lambe's lizard") is a genus of hadrosaurid dinosaur that lived about 75 million years ago, in the Late Cretaceous period (Campanian stage) of North America. This bipedal/quadrupedal, herbivorous dinosaur is known for its distinctive hollow cranial crest, which in the best-known species resembled a hatchet. Several possible species have been named, from Canada, the United States, and Mexico, but only the two Canadian species are currently recognized as valid.
Material relevant to the genus was first named by Lawrence Lambe in 1902. Over twenty years later, the modern name was coined in 1923 by William Parks, in honour of Lambe, based on better preserved specimens. The genus has a complicated taxonomic history, in part because small-bodied crested hadrosaurids now recognized as juveniles were once thought to belong to their own genera and species. Currently, the various skulls assigned to the type species L. lambei are interpreted as showing age differences and sexual dimorphism. Lambeosaurus was closely related to the better known Corythosaurus, which is found in slightly older rocks, as well as the less well-known genera Hypacrosaurus and Olorotitan. All had unusual crests, which are now generally assumed to have served social functions like noisemaking and recognition.
Jake the Dog: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: TSINTAOSAURUS!
Jake fired a wave of water and it formed into a herd of hadrosaurs from 70 million years ago: Tsintaosaurus!
Tsintaosaurus (/tʃɪŋdaʊˈsɔːrəs/; meaning "Qingdao lizard", after the old transliteration "Tsingtao") is a genus of hadrosaurid dinosaur from China. It was about 8.3 metres (27 ft) long and weighed 2.5 tonnes. The type species is Tsintaosaurus spinorhinus, first described by Chinese paleontologist C. C. Young in 1958.
A hadrosaur, Tsintaosaurus had a characteristic 'duck bill' snout and a battery of powerful teeth which it used to chew vegetation. It usually walked on all fours, but could rear up on its hind legs to scout for predators and flee when it spotted one. Like other hadrosaurs, Tsintaosaurus probably lived in herds.
Flame Princess: FIRE STYLE NINJA ART: CARCHARODONTOSAURUS!
Flame Princess fired a wave of fire and it formed into theropod from 100 million years ago: Carcharodontosaurus!
Carcharodontosaurus /ˌkɑːrkəroʊˌdɒntoʊˈsɔːrəs/ is a genus of carnivorous carcharodontosaurid dinosaurs that existed during the Cenomanian stage of the mid-Cretaceous Period in Northern Africa. It is currently known to include two species: C. saharicus and C. iguidensis, which are among the larger theropods, nearly as large as or even larger than Tyrannosaurus, Giganotosaurus, and Spinosaurus.
The genus Carcharodontosaurus is named after the shark genus Carcharodon, itself composed of the Greek karchar[os] (κάρχαρος, meaning "jagged" or "sharp") and odōn (ὀδών, "teeth"), and the suffix -saurus ("lizard").
Mario: (Italian Accent) WATER STYLE NINJA ART: CORYTHOSAURUS!
Mario fired a wave of water and it formed into the hadrosaur from 77 million years ago: Corythosaurus!
Corythosaurus /ˌkɒrɪθoʊˈsɔːrəs/ is a genus of hadrosaurid "duck-billed" dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous Period, about 77–75.7 million years ago. It lived in what is now North America. Its name means "helmet lizard", derived from Greek κόρυς. It was named and described in 1914 by Barnum Brown. Corythosaurus is now thought to be a lambeosaurine, related to Nipponosaurus, Velafrons, Hypacrosaurus, and Olorotitan. Corythosaurus has an estimated length of 9 metres (30 ft), and has a skull, including the crest, that is 70.8 centimetres (27.9 in; 2.32 ft) tall.
Corythosaurus is known from many complete specimens, including the nearly complete holotype found by Brown in 1911. The holotype skeleton is only missing the last section of the tail, and part of the forelimbs, but was preserved with impressions of polygonal scales. Corythosaurus is known from many skulls with tall crests. The crests resemble the crests of the cassowary and a Corinthian helmet. The most likely function of the crest is thought to be vocalization. As in a trombone, sound waves would travel through many chambers in the crest, and then get amplified when Corythosaurus exhaled. A Corythosaurus specimen has been preserved with its last meal in its chest cavity. Inside the cavity were remains of conifer needles, seeds, twigs, and fruits: Corythosaurus probably fed on all of these.
The two species of Corythosaurus are both present in slightly different levels of the Dinosaur Park Formation. Both still co-existed with theropods and other ornithischians, like Daspletosaurus, Brachylophosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Scolosaurus, and Chasmosaurus.
Luigi: (Italian Accent) ARTHROPOD STYLE NINJA ART: MEGANEURA!
Luigi fired a wave of energy and it formed into a swarm of the Carboniferous dragonflies from 305 million years ago: Meganeura!
Meganeura is a genus of extinct insects from the Carboniferous period (approximately 300 million years ago), which resembled and are related to the present-day dragonflies. With wingspans ranging from 65 cm (25.6 in) to over 70 cm (28 in), M. monyi is one of the largest-known flying insect species. Meganeura were predatory, with their diet mainly consisting of other insects.
Wing venation of Meganeura monyi, redrawn after Brongniart (1893, Pl. XLI)
Fossils were discovered in the French Stephanian Coal Measures of Commentry in 1880. In 1885, French paleontologist Charles Brongniart described and named the fossil "Meganeura" (large-nerved), which refers to the network of veins on the insect's wings. Another fine fossil specimen was found in 1979 at Bolsover in Derbyshire. The holotype is housed in the National Museum of Natural History, in Paris.
Mei Terumi: OCEAN STYLE NINJA ART: MEGALODON!
Mei fired a wave of water and it formed into the largest and most meanest shark ever to swim the ocean and the ancestor of the Great White Shark from 23 million years ago.
Megalodon (Carcharocles megalodon), meaning "big tooth", is an extinct species of shark that lived approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago (mya), during the Early Miocene to the Pliocene. It was formerly thought to be a member of the family Lamnidae and a close relative of the great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias). However, it is now classified into the extinct family Otodontidae, which diverged from the great white shark during the Early Cretaceous. Its genus placement is still debated, authors placing it in either Carcharocles, Megaselachus, Otodus, or Procarcharodon. This is because transitional fossils have been found showing that Megalodon is the final chronospecies of a lineage of giant sharks originally of the genus Otodus which evolved during the Paleocene.
While regarded as one of the largest and most powerful predators to have ever lived, megalodon is known from fragmentary remains, and its appearance and maximum size are uncertain. Scientists differ on whether it would have more closely resembled a stockier version of the great white shark, the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus) or the sand tiger shark (Carcharias taurus). Most estimates of megalodon's size extrapolate from teeth; with maximum length estimates up to 18 meters (59 ft) and average length estimates of 10.5 meters (34 ft). Estimates suggest their large jaws could exert a bite force of up to 110,000 to 180,000 newtons (25,000 to 40,000 lbf). Their teeth were thick and robust, built for grabbing prey and breaking bone.
Megalodon probably had a major impact on the structure of marine communities. The fossil record indicates that it had a cosmopolitan distribution. It probably targeted large prey, such as whales, seals and sea turtles. Juveniles inhabited warm coastal waters and fed on fish and small whales. Unlike the great white, which attacks prey from the soft underside, megalodon probably used its strong jaws to break through the chest cavity and puncture the heart and lungs of its prey.
The animal faced competition from whale-eating cetaceans, such as Livyatan and other macroraptorial sperm whales and possibly smaller ancestral killer whales. As the shark preferred warmer waters, it is thought that oceanic cooling associated with the onset of the ice ages, coupled with the lowering of sea levels and resulting loss of suitable nursery areas, may have also contributed to its decline. A reduction in the diversity of baleen whales and a shift in their distribution toward polar regions may have reduced megalodon's primary food source. A 2019 study reviewed newer evidence suggesting that competition from the modern great white shark may have also contributed to the extinction of megalodon, coupled with range fragmentation resulting in a gradual, asynchronous extinction as a result of cooling oceans around 3.6–4 million years ago, far earlier than previously assumed. The extinction of the shark appeared to affect other animals; for example, the size of baleen whales increased significantly after the shark had disappeared.
Carol: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: STEGOSAURUS!
Carol fired a wave of Earth and it formed into the awesome dinosaur from 155 million years ago: Stegosaurus!
Stegosaurus (/ˌstɛɡəˈsɔːrəs/), from Greek stegos (στέγος), which means roof, and sauros (σαῦρος), which means lizard, is a genus of herbivorous thyreophoran dinosaur. Fossils of this genus date to the Late Jurassic period, where they are found in Kimmeridgian to early Tithonian aged strata, between 155 and 150 million years ago, in the western United States and Portugal. Of the species that have been classified in the upper Morrison Formation of the western US, only three are universally recognized; S. stenops, S. ungulatus and S. sulcatus. The remains of over 80 individual animals of this genus have been found. Stegosaurus would have lived alongside dinosaurs such as Apatosaurus, Diplodocus, Brachiosaurus, Allosaurus, and Ceratosaurus; the latter two may have preyed on it.
These were large, heavily built, herbivorous quadrupeds with rounded backs, short fore limbs, long hind limbs, and tails held high in the air. Due to their distinctive combination of broad, upright plates and tail tipped with spikes, Stegosaurus is one of the most recognizable kinds of dinosaurs. The function of this array of plates and spikes has been the subject of much speculation among scientists. Today, it is generally agreed that their spiked tails were most likely used for defense against predators, while their plates may have been used primarily for display, and secondarily for thermoregulatory functions. Stegosaurus had a relatively low brain-to-body mass ratio. It had a short neck and a small head, meaning it most likely ate low-lying bushes and shrubs. One species, Stegosaurus ungulatus, is the largest known of all the stegosaurians (bigger than related dinosaurs such as Kentrosaurus and Huayangosaurus).
Stegosaurus remains were first identified during the "Bone Wars" by Othniel Charles Marsh at Dinosaur Ridge National Landmark. The first known skeletons were fragmentary and the bones were scattered, and it would be many years before the true appearance of these animals, including their posture and plate arrangement, became well understood. Despite its popularity in books and film, mounted skeletons of Stegosaurus did not become a staple of major natural history museums until the mid-20th century, and many museums have had to assemble composite displays from several different specimens due to a lack of complete skeletons. Stegosaurus is one of the better-known dinosaurs, and has been featured in film, postal stamps, and many other types of media.
Beast Boy: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: TRICERATOPS!
Beast Boy fired a wave of earth and it formed into the fierce dinosaur from 68 million years ago: Triceratops!
Triceratops is a genus of herbivorous ceratopsid dinosaur that first appeared during the late Maastrichtian stage of the late Cretaceous period, about 68 million years ago (mya) in what is now North America. It is one of the last known non-avian dinosaur genera, and became extinct in the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event 66 million years ago. The name Triceratops, which literally means "three-horned face", is derived from the Ancient Greek words τρί- (tri-) meaning "three", κέρας (kéras) meaning "horn", and ὤψ (ōps) meaning "face".
Triceratops has been documented by numerous remains collected since the genus was first described in 1889 by Othniel Charles Marsh. Specimens representing life stages from hatchling to adult have been found. As the archetypal ceratopsid, Triceratops is one of the most popular dinosaurs, and has been featured in film, postal stamps, and many other types of media.
Bearing a large bony frill and three horns on the skull, and its large four-legged body possessing similarities with the modern rhinoceros, Triceratops is one of the most recognizable of all dinosaurs and the best-known ceratopsid. It was also one of the largest, up to 9 meters (29.5 ft) long and 12 metric tons (13 short tons) in weight. It shared the landscape with and was probably preyed upon by Tyrannosaurus, though it is less certain that the two did battle in the fanciful manner often depicted in museum displays and popular images. The functions of the frills and three distinctive facial horns on its head have long inspired debate. Traditionally, these have been viewed as defensive weapons against predators. More recent interpretations find it probable that these features were primarily used in species identification, courtship and dominance display, much like the antlers and horns of modern ungulates.
Triceratops was traditionally placed within the "short-frilled" ceratopsids but modern cladistic studies show it to be a member of the Chasmosaurinae which usually have long frills. Two species, T. horridus and T. prorsus, are considered valid today, from the seventeen species that have ever been named. Research published in 2010 concluded that the contemporaneous Torosaurus, a ceratopsid long regarded as a separate genus, represents Triceratops in its mature form. This view was immediately disputed with examination of more fossil evidence needed to settle the debate.
Linka: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: TOROSAURUS!
Linka fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ceratopsian from 68 million years ago: Torosaurus!
Torosaurus ("perforated lizard", in reference to the large openings in its frill) is a genus of herbivorous ceratopsid dinosaur that lived during the late Maastrichtian stage of the Cretaceous period, between 68 and 66 million years ago, though it is possible that the species range might extend to as far as 69 million years ago. Fossils have been discovered across the Western Interior of North America, from Saskatchewan to southern Texas.
Torosaurus possessed one of the largest skulls of any known land animal. The frilled skull reached up to 2.77 metres (9.1 ft) in length. From head to tail, Torosaurus is thought to have measured about 8 to 9 m (26 to 30 ft) long and weighed four to six tonnes. Torosaurus is distinguished from the contemporary Triceratops by an elongate frill with large openings (fenestrae), long squamosal bones of the frill with a trough on their upper surface, and the presence of five or more pairs of hornlets (epoccipitals) on the back of the frill. Torosaurus also lacked the long nose horn seen in Triceratops prorsus, and instead resembled the earlier and more basal Triceratops horridus in having a short nose horn. Three species have been named, Torosaurus latus, T. gladius and T. utahensis. T. gladius is no longer considered a valid species, however.
In 2010, the validity of Torosaurus was disputed. A study of fossil bone histology combined with an investigation of frill shape concluded that Torosaurus probably represented the mature form of Triceratops, with the bones of typical Triceratops specimens still immature and showing signs of a first development of distinct Torosaurus frill holes. During maturation, the skull frill would have been greatly lengthened and holes would have appeared in it. In 2011, 2012 and 2013 however, studies of external features of known specimens have claimed that morphological differences between the two genera preclude their synonymy. The main problems are a lack of good transitional forms, the apparent existence of authentic Torosaurus subadults, different skull proportions independent of maturation and the assertion that hole formation at an adult stage is not part of a normal ceratopsian maturation sequence.
Paula: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: NASUTOCERATOPS!
Paula fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ceratopsian from 75.9 million years ago: Nasutoceratops!
Nasutoceratops is an extinct genus of ceratopsian dinosaur. It is a basal centrosaurine which lived during the Late Cretaceous Period (late Campanian, about 76.0-75.5 Ma). Fossils have been found in southern Utah, United States. Nasutoceratops was a large, ground-dwelling, quadrupedal herbivore with a short snout and unique rounded horns above its eyes that have been likened to those of modern cattle. Extending almost to the tip of its snout, these horns are the longest of all the members of the centrosaurine subfamily. The presence of pneumatic elements in the nasal bones of Nasutoceratops are a unique trait and are unknown in any other ceratopsid. Nasutoceratops, Diabloceratops, and Machairoceratops are the only three centrosaurine dinosaurs from the American southwest.

Margo fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ceratopsian from 76.5 million years ago: Centrosaurus!
Centrosaurus (/ˌsɛntroʊˈsɔːrəs/ SEN-tro-SAWR-əs) is a genus of herbivorous ceratopsian dinosaurs from the Late Cretaceous of Canada. Their remains have been found in the Dinosaur Park Formation, dating from 76.5 to 75.5 million years ago.
Hulk: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: STYRACOSAURUS!
Hulk fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ceratopsian from 75.5 million years ago: Styracosaurus!
Styracosaurus (/stɪˌrækəˈsɔːrəs/ sti-RAK-ə-SOR-əs; meaning "spiked lizard" from the Ancient Greek styrax/στύραξ "spike at the butt-end of a spear-shaft" and sauros/σαῦρος "lizard") is a genus of herbivorous ceratopsian dinosaur from the Cretaceous Period (Campanian stage), about 75.5 to 75 million years ago. It had four to six long parietal spikes extending from its neck frill, a smaller jugal horn on each of its cheeks, and a single horn protruding from its nose, which may have been up to 60 centimetres (2 feet) long and 15 centimetres (6 inches) wide. The function or functions of the horns and frills have been debated for many years.
Styracosaurus was a relatively large dinosaur, reaching lengths of 5.5 metres (18 feet) and weighing nearly 3 tonnes. It stood about 1.8 meters (5.9 feet) tall. Styracosaurus possessed four short legs and a bulky body. Its tail was rather short. The skull had a beak and shearing cheek teeth arranged in continuous dental batteries, suggesting that the animal sliced up plants. Like other ceratopsians, this dinosaur may have been a herd animal, travelling in large groups, as suggested by bonebeds.
Named by Lawrence Lambe in 1913, Styracosaurus is a member of the Centrosaurinae. One species, S. albertensis, is currently assigned to Styracosaurus. Another species, S. ovatus, named in 1930 by Charles Gilmore was reassigned to a new genus, Rubeosaurus, by Andrew McDonald and Jack Horner in 2010.
She-Hulk: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: PACHYCEPHALOSAURUS!
She-Hulk fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ramming dinosaur from 70 million years ago: Pachycephalosaurus!
Pachycephalosaurus (/ˌpækɪˌsɛfələˈsɔːrəs/; meaning "thick-headed lizard," from Greek pachys-/παχύς- "thick", kephale/κεφαλή "head" and sauros/σαῦρος "lizard") is a genus of pachycephalosaurid dinosaurs. The type species, P. wyomingensis, is the only known species. It lived during the Late Cretaceous Period (Maastrichtian stage) of what is now North America. Remains have been excavated in Montana, South Dakota, Wyoming and Alberta. It was a herbivorous creature which is primarily known from a single skull and a few extremely thick skull roofs, though more complete fossils have been found in recent years. Pachycephalosaurus was one of the last non-avian dinosaurs before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event. Another dinosaur, Tylosteus of western North America, has been synonymized with Pachycephalosaurus, as have the genera Stygimoloch and Dracorex in recent studies.
Like other pachycephalosaurids, Pachycephalosaurus was a bipedal herbivore with an extremely thick skull roof. It possessed long hindlimbs and small forelimbs. Pachycephalosaurus is the largest-known pachycephalosaur. The thick skull domes of Pachycephalosaurus and related genera gave rise to the hypothesis that pachycephalosaurs used their skulls in intra-species combat. This hypothesis has been disputed in recent years.
Pinkie Pie: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: PRENOCEPHALE!
Pinkie Pie fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ramming dinosaur from 80 million years ago: Prenocephale!
Prenocephale was a small pachycephalosaurid dinosaur genus from the Late Cretaceous (Campanian) of Mongolia and was similar in many ways to its close relative, Homalocephale, which may simply represent Prenocephale juveniles.
Rarity: CRYSTAL STYLE NINJA ART: PLATEOSAURUS!
Rarity fired a wave of crystal and it formed into the protosauropod from 214 million years ago: Plateosaurus!
Plateosaurus (probably meaning "broad lizard", often mistranslated as "flat lizard") is a genus of plateosaurid dinosaur that lived during the Late Triassic period, around 214 to 204 million years ago, in what is now Central and Northern Europe and Greenland, North America. Plateosaurus is a basal (early) sauropodomorph dinosaur, a so-called "prosauropod". As of 2011, two species are recognised: the type species P. engelhardti from the late Norian and Rhaetian, and the slightly earlier P. gracilis from the lower Norian. However, others have been assigned in the past, and there is no broad consensus on the species taxonomy of plateosaurid dinosaurs. Similarly, there are a plethora of synonyms (invalid duplicate names) at the genus level.
Discovered in 1834 by Johann Friedrich Engelhardt and described three years later by Hermann von Meyer, Plateosaurus was the fifth named dinosaur genus that is still considered valid. Although it had been described before Richard Owen formally named Dinosauria in 1842, it was not one of the three genera used by Owen to define the group, because at the time, it was poorly known and difficult to identify as a dinosaur. It is now among the dinosaurs best known to science: over 100 skeletons have been found, some of them nearly complete. The abundance of its fossils in Swabia, Germany, has led to the nickname Schwäbischer Lindwurm (Swabian lindworm).
Plateosaurus was a bipedal herbivore with a small skull on a long, flexible neck, sharp but plump plant-crushing teeth, powerful hind limbs, short but muscular arms and grasping hands with large claws on three fingers, possibly used for defence and feeding. Unusually for a dinosaur, Plateosaurus showed strong developmental plasticity: instead of having a fairly uniform adult size, fully grown individuals were between 4.8 and 10 metres (16 and 33 ft) long and weighed between 600 and 4,000 kilograms (1,300 and 8,800 lb). Commonly, the animals lived for at least 12 to 20 years, but the maximum life span is not known.
Despite the great quantity and excellent quality of the fossil material, Plateosaurus was for a long time one of the most misunderstood dinosaurs. Some researchers proposed theories that were later shown to conflict with geological and palaeontological evidence, but have become the paradigm of public opinion. Since 1980 the taxonomy (relationships), taphonomy (how the animals became embedded and fossilised), biomechanics (how their skeletons worked), and palaeobiology (life circumstances) of Plateosaurus have been re-studied in detail, altering the interpretation of the animal's biology, posture and behaviour.
Zuko: FIRE STYLE NINJA ART: TUOJIANGOSAURUS!
Zuko fired a wave of fire and it formed into the stegosaur from 160 million years ago: Tuojiangosaurus!
Tuojiangosaurus (meaning "Tuo River lizard") is a genus of herbivorous stegosaurid dinosaur from the Late Jurassic Period, recovered from the Upper Shaximiao Formation of what is now Sichuan Province in China.
Azula: LIGHTNING STYLE NINJA ART: KENTROSAURUS!
Azula fired a wave of lightning and it formed into the stegosaur from 152 million years ago: Kentrosaurus!
Kentrosaurus (/ˌkɛntroʊˈsɔːrəs/ KEN-tro-SAWR-əs) is a genus of stegosaurian dinosaur from the Late Jurassic of Tanzania. The type species is K. aethiopicus, named and described by German palaeontologist Edwin Hennig in 1915. Often thought to be a "primitive" member of the Stegosauria, several recent cladistic analyses find it as more derived than many other stegosaurs, and a close relative of Stegosaurus from the North American Morrison Formation within the Stegosauridae.
Fossils of K. aethiopicus have been found only in the Tendaguru Formation, dated to the late Kimmeridgian and early Tithonian ages, about 152 million years ago. Hundreds of bones were unearthed by German expeditions to German East Africa between 1909 and 1912. Although no complete skeletons are known, the remains provided a nearly complete picture of the build of the animal.
Kentrosaurus generally measured around 4.5 metres (15 ft) in length as an adult, and weighed about one tonne (1.1 tons). It walked on all fours with straight hindlimbs. It had a small, elongated head with a beak used to bite off plant material that would be digested in a large gut. It had a, probably double, row of small plates running down its neck and back. These plates gradually merged into spikes on the hip and tail. The longest spikes were on the tail end and were used to actively defend the animal. There also was a long spike on each shoulder. The thigh bones come in two different types, suggesting that one sex was larger and more stout than the other.
Volcana: LAVA STYLE NINJA ART: MIRAGAIA!
Volcana fired a wave of lava and it formed into the Stegosaur from 150 million years ago: Miragaia!
Miragaia (named after Miragaia, the parish in Portugal and geologic unit where its remains were found) is a long-necked stegosaurid dinosaur. Its fossils have been found in Upper Jurassic rocks in Portugal. Miragaia has the longest neck known for any stegosaurian, which included at least seventeen vertebrae.
Meowth: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: BRONTOTHERIUM!
Meowth fired a wave of earth and it formed into the early ancestors of the Rhinoceros from 38 million years ago: Brontotherium!
Megacerops ("large-horned face", from méga- "large" + kéras "horn" + ōps "face") is an extinct genus of the prehistoric odd-toed ungulate (hoofed mammal) family Brontotheriidae, an extinct group of rhinoceros-like browsers related to horses. It was endemic to North America during the Late Eocene epoch (38–33.9 mya), existing for approximately 4.1 million years.
Jessie (Pokemon): EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: ANDREWSARCHUS!
Jessie fired a wave of earth and it formed into the first wild boar from 43 million years ago: Andrewsarchus!
Andrewsarchus (/ˌændruːˈsɑːrkəs/) is an extinct genus of mammal that lived during the middle Eocene epoch in what is now Inner Mongolia, China. Only one species is usually recognized, A. mongoliensis, known from a single skull of great size discovered in 1923 during the expeditions to central Asia by the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH). Generally classified as a mesonychid since its original description, most recent studies classify it as an artiodactyl, in one study specifically, as a member of the clade Cetancodontamorpha, closely related to entelodonts, hippos and whales.
James (Pokemon): EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: LYSTROSAURUS!
James fired a wave of earth and it formed into the Dicynodont from 255 million years ago: Lystrosaurus!
Lystrosaurus (/ˌlɪstroʊˈsɔːrəs/; 'shovel lizard'; proper Greek is λίστρον lístron 'tool for leveling or smoothing, shovel, spade, hoe') was a herbivorous genus of dicynodont therapsids from the late Permian and Early Triassic epochs (around 250 million years ago). It lived in what is now Antarctica, India, China, Mongolia, European Russia and South Africa. Four to six species are currently recognized, although from the 1930s to 1970s the number of species was thought to be much higher. They ranged in size from that of a small dog to 2.5 meters long.
Being a dicynodont, Lystrosaurus had only two teeth (a pair of tusk-like canines), and is thought to have had a horny beak that was used for biting off pieces of vegetation. Lystrosaurus was a heavily built, herbivorous animal, approximately the size of a pig. The structure of its shoulders and hip joints suggests that Lystrosaurus moved with a semi-sprawling gait. The forelimbs were even more robust than the hindlimbs, and the animal is thought to have been a powerful digger that nested in burrows.
Lystrosaurus survived the Permian-Triassic extinction, 252 million years ago. In the Early Triassic, they were by far the most common terrestrial vertebrates, accounting for as many as 95% of the total individuals in some fossil beds. Researchers have offered various hypotheses for why Lystrosaurus survived the extinction event and prospered in the early Triassic.
Star Butterfly: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: DEINOTHERIUM!
Star fired a wave of earth and it formed into one of the first ever ancestors of the elephant from 24 million years ago: Deinotherium!
Deinotherium ("terrible beast" derived from the Ancient Greek δεινός, deinos meaning "terrible" and θηρίον, therion meaning "beast") was a large prehistoric relative of modern-day elephants that appeared in the Middle Miocene and survived until the Early Pleistocene. During that time, it changed very little. In life, it probably resembled modern elephants, except it had downward-curving tusks attached to the lower jaw.
Marco Diaz: WOOD STYLE NINJA ART: DINOFELIS!
Marco fired a wave of wood and it formed into the ancestor of the leopard from 5 million years ago: Dinofelis!
Dinofelis is a genus of extinct sabre-toothed cats belonging to the tribe Metailurini. They were widespread in Europe, Asia, Africa and North America at least 5 million to about 1.2 million years ago (Early Pliocene to Early Pleistocene). Fossils very similar to Dinofelis from Lothagam range back to the Late Miocene, some 8 million years ago.
Kitten: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: MACRAUCHENIA!
Kitten fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ancestor of the llama from 7 million years ago: Macrauchenia!
Macrauchenia ("long llama", based on the now superseded Latin term for llamas, Auchenia, from Greek "big neck") was a large, long-necked and long-limbed, three-toed native South American mammal in the order Litopterna. The genus gives its name to its family, the Macraucheniidae or "robust litopterns". Like other litopterns, it is not closely related to any living mammal, being most closely related to the group containing horses, rhinos and tapirs (the Perissodactyla), from which litopterns diverged approximately 66 million years ago. The oldest fossils in the genus date to the late Miocene, around seven million years ago, and M. patachonica disappears from the fossil record during the late Pleistocene, around 20,000-10,000 years ago. M. patachonica is one of the last and best known member of the family and is known primarily from the Luján Formation in Argentina, but is known from localities across southern South America. Another genus of macraucheniid Xenorhinotherium was present in northeast Brazil and Venezuela during the Late Pleistocene. The type specimen was discovered by Charles Darwin during the voyage of the Beagle. In life, Macrauchenia may have resembled a humpless camel, though the two taxa are not closely related. It fed on plants in a variety of environments across what is now South America. Among the species described, M. patachonica and M. ullomensis are considered valid; M. boliviensis is considered a nomen dubium; and M. antiqua (or M. antiquus) has been moved to the genus Promacrauchenia.
Tuddrussel: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: ALBERTOSAURUS!
Tuddrussel fired a wave of earth and it formed into the theropod from 71 million years ago: Albertosaurus!
Albertosaurus (/ælˌbɜːrtəˈsɔːrəs/; meaning "Alberta lizard") is a genus of tyrannosaurid theropod dinosaurs that lived in western North America during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 70 million years ago. The type species, A. sarcophagus, was apparently restricted in range to the modern-day Canadian province of Alberta, after which the genus is named, although an indeterminate species ("cf. Albertosaurus sp.") has been discovered in the Corral de Enmedio and Packard Formations in Mexico. Scientists disagree on the content of the genus, with some recognizing Gorgosaurus libratus as a second species.
As a tyrannosaurid, Albertosaurus was a bipedal predator with tiny, two-fingered hands and a massive head that had dozens of large, sharp teeth. It may have been at the top of the food chain in its local ecosystem. While Albertosaurus was large for a theropod, it was much smaller than its larger and more famous relative Tyrannosaurus rex, growing 9 to 10 m (30 to 33 ft) and possibly weighing 2.5 tonnes (2.8 short tons) or less.
Since the first discovery in 1884, fossils of more than 30 individuals have been recovered, providing scientists with a more detailed knowledge of Albertosaurus anatomy than is available for most other tyrannosaurids. The discovery of 26 individuals at one site provides evidence of pack behaviour and allows studies of ontogeny and population biology, which are impossible with lesser-known dinosaurs.
Larry 3000: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: EDMONTOSAURUS!
Larry fired a wave of earth and it formed into the Iguanodont from 73 million years ago: Edmontosaurus!
Edmontosaurus (/ɛdˌmɒntəˈsɔːrəs/ ed-MON-tə-SAWR-əs) (meaning "lizard from Edmonton") is a genus of hadrosaurid (duck-billed) dinosaur. It contains two known species: Edmontosaurus regalis and Edmontosaurus annectens. Fossils of E. regalis have been found in rocks of western North America that date from the late Campanian stage of the Cretaceous Period 73 million years ago, while those of E. annectens were found in the same geographic region but in rocks dated to the end of the Maastrichtian stage of the Cretaceous, 66 million years ago. Edmontosaurus was one of the last non-avian dinosaurs, and lived alongside dinosaurs like Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus, Albertosaurus and Pachycephalosaurus shortly before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
Edmontosaurus included some of the largest hadrosaurid species, measuring up to 12 metres (39 ft) long and weighing around 4.0 metric tons (4.4 short tons). Evidence does exist in the form of two fossilized specimens housed at the Museum of the Rockies for an even greater maximum size of 15 m (49 ft) and weighing 9.07 metric tons (10.00 short tons) for Edmontosaurus annectens. Several well-preserved specimens are known that include not only bones, but in some cases extensive skin impressions and possible gut contents. It is classified as a genus of saurolophine (or hadrosaurine) hadrosaurid, a member of the group of hadrosaurids which lacked large, hollow crests, instead having smaller solid crests or fleshy combs.
The first fossils named Edmontosaurus were discovered in southern Alberta (named after Edmonton, the capital city), in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation (formerly called the lower Edmonton Formation). The type species, E. regalis, was named by Lawrence Lambe in 1917, although several other species that are now classified in Edmontosaurus were named earlier. The best known of these is E. annectens, named by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1892; originally as a species of Claosaurus, known for many years as a species of Trachodon, and later as Anatosaurus annectens. Anatosaurus and Anatotitan are now generally regarded as synonyms of Edmontosaurus.
Edmontosaurus was widely distributed across western North America. The distribution of Edmontosaurus fossils suggests that it preferred coasts and coastal plains. It was a herbivore that could move on both two legs and four. Because it is known from several bone beds, Edmontosaurus is thought to have lived in groups, and may have been migratory as well. The wealth of fossils has allowed researchers to study its paleobiology in detail, including its brain, how it may have fed, and its injuries and pathologies, such as evidence for tyrannosaur attacks on a few edmontosaur specimens.
Skipper: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: DICYNODON!
Skipper fired a wave of earth and it formed into the dicynodont therapsid from 253.8 to 251 million years ago: Dicynodon!
Dicynodon ("two dog-teeth") is a genus of dicynodont therapsid that flourished during the Upper Permian period. Like all dicynodonts, it was herbivorous. This animal was toothless, except for prominent tusks, hence the name. It probably cropped vegetation with a horny beak, much like a tortoise, while the tusks may have been used for digging up roots and tubers.
Many species of Dicynodon have been named, and the genus is considered a wastebasket taxon. A 2011 study of the genus found most of the species to represent a paraphyletic grouping, with the only valid members of Dicynodon being D. lacerticeps and D. huenei. A 2019 study named a new species D. angielczyki, but simultaneously transferred D. huenei to the genus Daptocephalus.
Kowalski: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: PLACERIAS!
Kowalski fired a wave of earth and it formed into the dicynodont from 221 million years ago: Placerias!
Placerias (meaning 'broad body') is an extinct genus of dicynodonts that lived during the late Carnian age of the Triassic Period (221-216 million years ago). Placerias belongs to a group of dicynodonts called Kannemeyeriiformes, which was the last known group of dicynodonts before dicynodonts became extinct at the end of the Triassic.

Rico fired a wave of earth and it formed into the Dicynodont from 242 million years ago: Dinodontosaurus!
Dinodontosaurus (meaning "terrible-toothed lizard") is a genus of dicynodont therapsid. It was one of the largest herbivores of the Triassic (about 2.4 metres (7.9 ft) long and weighing a few hundred pounds) and had a beak corneum. It lived in the Middle Triassic but disappeared in the Upper Triassic.
Private: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: DIICTODON!
Private fired a wave of earth and it formed into the dicynodont from 259.8 million years ago: Diictodon!
Diictodon was a genus of pylaecephalid dicynodont. These mammal-like synapsids lived during the Late Permian period, approximately 255 million years ago. Fossils have been found in the Cistecephalus Assemblage Zone of the Madumabisa Mudstone of the Luangwa Basin in Zambia and the Tropidostoma Assemblage Zone of the Teekloof Formation, Tapinocephalus Assemblage Zone of the Abrahamskraal Formation, Dicynodon Assemblage Zone of the Balfour Formation, Cistecephalus Assemblage Zone of the Middleton or Balfour Formation of South Africa and the Guodikeng Formation of China. Roughly half of all Permian vertebrate specimens found in South Africa are those of Diictodon. This small herbivorous animal was one of the most successful synapsids in the Permian period.
Tails: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: SAUROSUCHUS!
Tails fired a wave of earth and it formed into one of the first crocodilian dinosaurs from 231 million years ago: Saurosuchus!
Saurosuchus (meaning "lizard crocodile") is a genus of large loricatan pseudosuchian archosaur that lived in South America during the Late Triassic period. It was a heavy, ground-dwelling, quadrupedal carnivore, being the major predator in the Ischigualasto Formation.
Numbuh 2: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: ISCHIGUALASTIA!
Numbuh 2 fired a wave of earth and it formed into the dicynodont from 231 million years ago: Ischigualastia!
Ischigualastia is an extinct genus of dicynodonts (a group of synapsids), that lived during the Carnian age of the Late Triassic Period. The genus was found in and named after the Ischigualasto Formation (Cancha de Bochas Member) of the Ischigualasto-Villa Unión Basin in northwestern Argentina. It has been placed in the family Stahleckeriidae.
Numbuh 1: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: EORAPTOR!
Numbuh 1 fired a wave of earth and it formed into one of the first ever known dinosaurs from 231 million years ago: Eoraptor!
Eoraptor (/ˈiːoʊˌræptər/) was one of the earliest-known dinosaurs, living approximately 231 to 228 million years ago, during the Late Triassic in Western Gondwana, in the region that is now northwestern Argentina. It was a small, lightly-built, basal saurischian dinosaur. It is known from several well-preserved skeletons. When first described in 1993, it was considered to be the earliest or one of the earliest known dinosaurs. Eoraptor has heterodont dentition, which suggests that it was omnivorous and that the feeding strategy had evolved early on in dinosaurs.
Liberty: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: TORVOSAURUS!
Liberty fired a wave of earth and it formed into the theropod dinosaur from 158 million years ago: Torvosaurus!
Torvosaurus (/ˌtɔːrvoʊˈsɔːrəs/) is a genus of carnivorous megalosauroid theropod dinosaur that lived approximately 153 to 148 million years ago during the Late Jurassic Period (Kimmeridgian to Tithonian) in what is now Colorado and Portugal. It contains two currently recognized species, Torvosaurus tanneri and Torvosaurus gurneyi.
In 1979 the type species Torvosaurus tanneri was named: it was a large, heavily built, bipedal carnivore, that could grow to a length of about 10 m (33 ft). T. tanneri was among the largest carnivores of its time, together with Epanterias and Saurophaganax (which could be both synonyms of Allosaurus). Specimens referred to Torvosaurus gurneyi were initially claimed to be up to twelve metres long, but later shown to be smaller. Based on bone morphology Torvosaurus is thought to have had short but very powerful arms.
Lyra: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: THRINAXODON!
Lyra fired a wave of earth and it formed into the cynodont from 251 million years ago: Thrinaxodon!
Thrinaxodon is an extinct genus of cynodonts, most commonly regarded by its species T. liorhinus which lived in what are now South Africa and Antarctica during the Early Triassic. Thrinaxodon lived just after the Permian–Triassic mass extinction event, its survival during the extinction may have been due to its burrowing habits.
Similar to other synapsids, Thrinaxodon adopted a semi-sprawling posture, an intermediary form between the sprawling position of pelycosaurs (not unlike current Crocodylia) and the more upright posture present in current mammals. Thrinaxodon is prevalent in the fossil record in part because it was one of the few carnivores of its time, and was of a larger size than similar cynodont carnivores.
Lee: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: CHASMOSAURUS!
Lee fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ceratopsian from 76.5 million years ago: Chasmosaurus!
Chasmosaurus (/ˌkæzmoʊˈsɔːrəs/ KAZ-mo-SAWR-əs) is a genus of ceratopsid dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous Period of North America. Its name means 'opening lizard', referring to the large openings (fenestrae) in its frill (Greek chasma meaning 'opening' or 'hollow' or 'gulf' and sauros meaning 'lizard'). With a length of 4.3–4.8 metres (14.1–15.7 ft) and a weight of 1.5–2 tonnes (1.7–2.2 short tons), Chasmosaurus was a ceratopsian of average size. Like all ceratopsians, it was purely herbivorous. It was initially to be called Protorosaurus, but this name had been previously published for another animal. All specimens of Chasmosaurus were collected from the Dinosaur Park Formation of the Dinosaur Provincial Park of Alberta, Canada. C. russelli comes from the lower beds of the formation while C. belli comes from middle and upper beds.
Po: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: PROTEROSUCHUS!
Po fired a wave of water and it formed into the Permian reptile from 252 million years ago: Proterosuchus!
Proterosuchus is an extinct genus of archosauriform reptiles that lived during the Early Triassic. It contains three valid species: the type species P. fergusi and the referred species P. alexanderi and P. goweri. All three species lived in what is now South Africa. The genus was named in 1903 by the South African paleontologist Robert Broom. The well-known genus Chasmatosaurus is a junior synonym of Proterosuchus.
Proterosuchus was a mid-sized quadrupedal reptile with a sprawling stance that could reach a length of up to 3.5 meters (11 ft). It had a large head and distinctively hooked snout. It was a predator, which may have hunted prey such as Lystrosaurus. The lifestyle of Proterosuchus remains debated; it may have been terrestrial or it may have been a semiaquatic ambush predator similar to modern crocodiles.
Proterosuchus is one of the earliest members of the clade Archosauriformes, which also includes crocodilians, pterosaurs, and dinosaurs, including birds. It lived in the aftermath of the Permian–Triassic extinction event, the largest known mass extinction in Earth's history.
Fluttershy: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: EUCHAMBERSIA!
Fluttershy fired a wave of earth and it formed into the therapsid from 256 million years ago: Euchambersia!
Euchambersia is a genus of therocephalian therapsid that lived during the Late Permian, approximately 255 million years ago, in what is now South Africa. The genus contains a single species, Euchambersia mirabilis, named by paleontologist Robert Broom in 1931 from a skull missing the lower jaws; a second skull, belonging to an immature individual, was later described. It is a member of the family Akidnognathidae, which historically has also been referred by as the synonymous Euchambersiidae (named after Euchambersia).
Euchambersia was a small and short-snouted therocephalian, possessing large canines as is typical of the group. However, it is notable among therocephalians for possessing ridges on its canines and a large indentation in the side of the skull. Under the erroneous assumption that the canines are grooved instead of ridged, it has been proposed that these structures supported a venom delivery mechanism. More recently, the internal structure of the skull of Euchambersia has been used as stronger evidence in favour of the hypothesis that it was venomous; other possibilities, such as the indentation supporting some sort of sensory organ, still remain plausible.
Jimmy Neutron: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: RHAMPHORHYNCHUS!
Jimmy fired a wave of wind and it formed into the flying reptiles from 150.8 million years ago: Rhamphorhynchus!
Rhamphorhynchus (/ˌræmfəˈrɪŋkəs/, "beak snout") is a genus of long-tailed pterosaurs in the Jurassic period. Less specialized than contemporary, short-tailed pterodactyloid pterosaurs such as Pterodactylus, it had a long tail, stiffened with ligaments, which ended in a characteristic soft-tissue tail vane. The jaws of Rhamphorhynchus housed needle-like teeth, which were angled forward, with a curved, sharp, beak-like tip lacking teeth, indicating a diet mainly of fish; indeed, fish and cephalopod remains are frequently found in Rhamphorhynchus abdominal contents, as well as in their coprolites.
Although fragmentary fossil remains possibly belonging to Rhamphorhynchus have been found in England, Tanzania, and Spain, the best preserved specimens come from the Solnhofen limestone of Bavaria, Germany. Many of these fossils preserve not only the bones but impressions of soft tissues, such as wing membranes. Scattered teeth believed to belong to Rhamphorhynchus have been found in Portugal as well.
Kick Buttowski: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: SEYMOURIA!
Kick fired a wave of earth and it formed into the Permian seymouriamorph from 275 million years ago: Seymouria!
Seymouria is an extinct genus of seymouriamorph from the Early Permian of North America and Europe. Although they were amphibians (in a biological sense), Seymouria were well-adapted to life on land, with many reptilian features—so many, in fact, that Seymouria was first thought to be a primitive reptile. It is primarily known from two species, Seymouria baylorensis and Seymouria sanjuanensis. The type species, S. baylorensis, is more robust and specialized, though its fossils have only been found in Texas. On the other hand, Seymouria sanjuanensis is more abundant and widespread. This smaller species is known from multiple well-preserved fossils, including a block of six skeletons found in the Cutler Formation of New Mexico, and a pair of fully grown skeletons from the Tambach Formation of Germany, which were fossilized lying next to each other.
For the first half of the 20th century, Seymouria was considered one of the oldest and most "primitive" known reptiles. Paleontologists noted how the general body shape resembled that of early reptiles such as captorhinids, and that certain adaptations of the limbs, hip, and skull were also similar to that of early reptiles, rather than any species of modern or extinct amphibians known at the time. The strongly-built limbs and backbone also supported the idea that Seymouria was primarily terrestrial, spending very little time in the water.[9] However, in the 1950s, fossilized tadpoles were discovered in Discosauriscus, which was a close relative of Seymouria in the group Seymouriamorpha. This shows that seymouriamorphs (including Seymouria) had a larval stage which lived in the water, therefore making Seymouria not a true reptile, but rather an amphibian which was closely related to reptiles. Though no longer considered the most primitive reptile, Seymouria is still an important transitional fossil documenting the acquisition of reptile-like skeletal features prior to the evolution of the amniotic egg, which characterizes amniotes (reptiles, mammals, and birds).
Kendall Perkins: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: HYNERPETON!
Kendall fired a wave of water and it formed into the Devonian creature from 365 million years ago: Hynerpeton!
Hynerpeton (/haɪˈnɜːrpətɒn/; from Hyner, Pennsylvania and Ancient Greek ἑρπετόν herpetón, "creeping animal," meaning "creeping animal from Hyner") is an extinct genus of early four-limbed vertebrate that lived in the rivers and ponds of Pennsylvania during the Late Devonian period, around 365 to 363 million years ago. The only known species of Hynerpeton is H. bassetti, named after the describer's grandfather, city planner Edward Bassett. Hynerpeton is known for being the first Devonian four-limbed vertebrate discovered in the United States, as well as possibly being one of the first to have lost internal (fish-like) gills.
This genus is known from few remains discovered at the Red Hill fossil site in Hyner, Pennsylvania. The most notable fossil is a large endochondral shoulder girdle consisting of the cleithrum, scapula, and coracoid (but not the interclavicle and clavicles), all connected into one shoulder bone. The inner surface of this shoulder bone possesses an array of depressions believed to have been attachment points for a unique set of powerful muscles around the chest. This may have given Hynerpeton improved mobility and weight-bearing abilities compared to other Devonian limbed vertebrates such as Ichthyostega and Acanthostega. The cleithrum (upper blade of the shoulder) is fused to the scapulocoracoid (lower plate of the shoulder, in front of the shoulder socket), unlike in most tetrapods, but the shoulder girdle is independent of the skull, unlike in most fish.
Early four-limbed vertebrates are sometimes referred to as tetrapods (using a trait-based definition of the term), although animals like Hynerpeton, Ichthyostega, and Acanthostega are placed outside the crown group Tetrapoda by the vast majority of paleontologists. From a cladistic (relations-based) point of view, a more accurate term would be "stem-tetrapod" or "stegocephalian", indicating that they were part of the lineage of animals that would lead to true tetrapods such as modern amphibians (Lissamphibia), reptiles, mammals, and birds.
Hynerpeton hails from the Red Hill fossil site, which, during the Late Devonian, was a warm floodplain inhabited by a diverse ecosystem of aquatic fish and terrestrial invertebrates. Hynerpeton was one of several genera of four-limbed vertebrates known from the site, although it was the first to be discovered. It has been theorized that animals like Hynerpeton were able to use their amphibious lifestyle to find shallow pools where they could spawn, isolated from predatory fish which inhabited the deeper rivers.

Juandissimo: (Spanish Accent) WATER STYLE NINJA ART: TIKTAALIK!
Juandissimo fired a wave of water and it formed into the Devonian Sarcopterygian from 375 million years ago: Tiktaalik!
Tiktaalik (/tɪkˈtɑːlɪk/; Inuktitut ᑎᒃᑖᓕᒃ [tiktaːlik]) is a monospecific genus of extinct sarcopterygian (lobe-finned fish) from the Late Devonian Period, about 375 Mya (million years ago), having many features akin to those of tetrapods (four-legged animals).
Unearthed in Arctic Canada, Tiktaalik is technically a fish, complete with scales and gills - but it has the flattened head of a crocodile and unusual fins. Its fins have thin ray bones for paddling like most fish, but they also have sturdy interior bones that would have allowed Tiktaalik to prop itself up in shallow water and use its limbs for support as most four-legged animals do. Those fins and a suite of other characteristics set Tiktaalik apart as something special; it has a combination of features that show the evolutionary transition between swimming fish and their descendants, the four-legged vertebrates - a clade which includes amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.
It and similar animals may possibly be the common ancestors of the broad swath of all vertebrate terrestrial fauna: amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals.
The first well-preserved Tiktaalik fossils were found in 2004 on Ellesmere Island in Nunavut, Canada.
Chloe Carmichael: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: STETHACANTHUS!

Stethacanthus is an extinct genus of shark-like Holocephalian which lived from the Late Devonian to Late Carboniferous epoch, dying out around 298.9 million years ago. Fossils have been found in Asia, Europe and North America.
Littlefoot: WATER STYLE NINJA ART: HYBODUS!
Littlefoot fired a wave of water and it formed into the Jurassic Shark from 260 to 66 million years ago: Hybodus!
Hybodus ("humped tooth") is an extinct genus of Chondrichthyans. First appearing towards the end of the Permian period, and disappearing during the Late Cretaceous, during the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods the hybodonts were especially successful and could be found in shallow seas across the world. For reasons that are not fully understood, the hybodonts became extinct near the end of the Late Cretaceous period.
Patrick: OCEAN STYLE NINJA ART: LIVYATAN!
Patrick fired a wave of water and it formed into the first ancestral sperm whale from 9 million years ago: Livyatan!
Livyatan is an extinct genus of sperm whale containing one species: L. melvillei. The genus name was inspired by the biblical sea monster Leviathan, and the species name by Herman Melville, the author of the famous book Moby-Dick about a white bull sperm whale. It is mainly known from the Pisco Formation of Peru during the Tortonian stage of the Miocene epoch, about 9.9–8.9 million years ago (mya); however, isolated teeth from other locations such as Chile, Argentina, South Africa, and Australia implies that either it or a close relative survived into the Pliocene, around 5 mya, and was present throughout the Southern Hemisphere. It was a member of a group of hyper-predatory macroraptorial sperm whales (or "raptorial sperm whales") and was likely an apex predator, preying on whales, seals, and so forth. Characteristic of raptorial sperm whales, Livyatan had functional, enamel-coated teeth on the upper and lower jaws, as well as several adaptations for hunting large prey.
Livyatan's total length has been estimated to be about 13.5–17.5 m (44–57 ft), similar to the modern sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus), making it one of the largest predators to have ever existed. The teeth of Livyatan measured 36.2 cm (1.2 ft), and are the largest biting teeth of any known animal, excluding tusks. It is distinguished from the other raptorial sperm whales by the basin on the skull, and how it spans the entire length of the snout. The spermaceti organ, contained in that basin, is thought to have been used in echolocation and communication, or for ramming prey and other sperm whales. The whale may have interacted with the large extinct shark megalodon (Carcharocles megalodon), competing with it for a similar food source. Its extinction was likely caused by a cooling event at the end of the Miocene which resulted in a drop in food populations. The formation where the whale has been found has also preserved a large assemblage of marine life, such as sharks and marine mammals.
Dawn (Total Drama): FOREST STYLE NINJA ART: DRYOSAURUS!
Dawn fired a wave of leaves and wood and it formed into the hadrosaur from 155 million years ago: Dryosaurus!
Dryosaurus (/ˌdraɪoʊˈsɔːrəs/ DRY-o-SAWR-əs; meaning 'tree lizard', Greek δρῦς (drys) meaning 'tree, oak' and σαυρος (sauros) meaning 'lizard'; the name reflects the forested habitat, not a vague oak-leaf shape of its cheek teeth as is sometimes assumed) is a genus of an ornithopod dinosaur that lived in the Late Jurassic period. It was an iguanodont (formerly classified as a hypsilophodont). Fossils have been found in the western United States and were first discovered in the late 19th century. Valdosaurus canaliculatus and Dysalotosaurus lettowvorbecki were both formerly considered to represent species of Dryosaurus.

Camptosaurus (/ˌkæmptoʊˈsɔːrəs/ KAMP-toh-SAWR-əs) is a genus of plant-eating, beaked ornithischian dinosaurs of the Late Jurassic period of western North America. The name means 'flexible lizard' (Greek καμπτος (kamptos) meaning 'bent' and σαυρος (sauros) meaning 'lizard').
Mike (Total Drama): FOREST STYLE NINJA ART: ORNITHOLESTES!
Mike fired a wave of wood and leaves and it formed into the theropod dinosaur from 154 million years ago: Ornitholestes.
Ornitholestes (meaning "bird robber") is a small theropod dinosaur of the late Jurassic (Brushy Basin Member of the Morrison Formation, middle Kimmeridgian age, about 154 million years ago) of Western Laurasia (the area that was to become North America).
To date, Ornitholestes is known only from a single partial skeleton with a badly crushed skull found at the Bone Cabin Quarry near Medicine Bow, Wyoming, in 1900. It was described by Henry Fairfield Osborn in 1903. An incomplete hand was later attributed to Ornitholestes, although it now appears to belong to Tanycolagreus. The type (and only known) species is O. hermanni. The specific name honors the American Museum of Natural History preparator Adam Hermann.
Fuzzy Lumpkins: FOREST STYLE NINJA ART: OTHNIELIA!
Fuzzy fired a wave of wood and leaves and it formed into the neornithischian dinosaur from 155 million years ago: Nanosaurus A.K.A. Othnielia!
Nanosaurus ("small or dwarf lizard") is the name given to a genus of neornithischian dinosaur that lived about 155 to 148 million years ago, during the Late Jurassic-age. Its fossils are known from the Morrison Formation of the south-western United States. The type and only species, Nanosaurus agilis, was described and named by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1877. The taxon has a complicated taxonomic history, largely the work of Marsh and Peter M. Galton, involving the genera Laosaurus, Hallopus, Drinker, Othnielia, and Othnielosaurus, the latter three now being considered to be synonyms of Nanosaurus. It had historically been classified as a hypsilophodont or fabrosaur, types of generalized small bipedal herbivore, but more recent research has abandoned these groupings as paraphyletic and Nanosaurus is today considered a basal member of Neornithischia.
Magnolia: FOREST STYLE NINJA ART: DAKOTARAPTOR!
Magnolia fired a wave of wood and leaves and it formed into the theropod dinosaur from 66 million years ago: Dakotaraptor.
Dakotaraptor is a potentially chimaeric genus of large dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived in North America during the Late Cretaceous period. The remains have been found in the Maastrichtian stage of the Hell Creek Formation, dated to the very end of the Mesozoic era, making Dakotaraptor one of the last surviving dromaeosaurids. The remains of D. steini were discovered in a multi-species bonebed. Elements of the holotype and referred specimens were later found to belong to trionychid turtles, and further analysis of potential non-dromaeosaurid affinities of the holotype and referred material have not yet been conducted. Phylogenetic analyses of D. steini place it in a variety of positions in the Dromaeosauridae.

Dromaeosaurus (/ˌdroʊmiəˈsɔːrəs, -mioʊ-/, "swift running lizard") is a genus of theropod dinosaur which lived during the Late Cretaceous period (middle late Campanian), sometime between 80 and 72.8 million years ago, in Alberta, Canada and the western United States. The type species is Dromaeosaurus albertensis, which was described by William Diller Matthew and Barnum Brown in 1922.
Goku: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: DEINONYCHUS!
Goku fired a wave of earth and it formed into the deadly pack-hunting theropods from 115 million years ago: Deinonychus!
Deinonychus (/daɪˈnɒnɪkəs/ dy-NON-i-kəs; from Greek: δεινός deinós, 'terrible' and ὄνυξ ónux, genitive ὄνυχος ónuchos 'claw') is a genus of dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur with one described species, Deinonychus antirrhopus. This species, which could grow up to 3.4 meters (11 ft) long, lived during the early Cretaceous Period, about 115–108 million years ago (from the mid-Aptian to early Albian stages). Fossils have been recovered from the U.S. states of Montana, Utah, Wyoming, and Oklahoma, in rocks of the Cloverly Formation, Cedar Mountain Formation and Antlers Formation, though teeth that may belong to Deinonychus have been found much farther east in Maryland.
Paleontologist John Ostrom's study of Deinonychus in the late 1960s revolutionized the way scientists thought about dinosaurs, leading to the "dinosaur renaissance" and igniting the debate on whether dinosaurs were warm-blooded or cold-blooded. Before this, the popular conception of dinosaurs had been one of plodding, reptilian giants. Ostrom noted the small body, sleek, horizontal posture, ratite-like spine, and especially the enlarged raptorial claws on the feet, which suggested an active, agile predator.
"Terrible claw" refers to the unusually large, sickle-shaped talon on the second toe of each hind foot. The fossil YPM 5205 preserves a large, strongly curved ungual. In life, archosaurs have a horny sheath over this bone, which extends the length. Ostrom looked at crocodile and bird claws and reconstructed the claw for YPM 5205 as over 120 millimetres (4.7 in) long. The species name antirrhopus means "counter balance", which refers to Ostrom's idea about the function of the tail. As in other dromaeosaurids, the tail vertebrae have a series of ossified tendons and super-elongated bone processes. These features seemed to make the tail into a stiff counterbalance, but a fossil of the very closely related Velociraptor mongoliensis (IGM 100/986) has an articulated tail skeleton that is curved laterally in a long S-shape. This suggests that, in life, the tail could bend to the sides with a high degree of flexibility. In both the Cloverly and Antlers formations, Deinonychus remains have been found closely associated with those of the ornithopod Tenontosaurus. Teeth discovered associated with Tenontosaurus specimens imply they were hunted, or at least scavenged upon, by Deinonychus.
Vegeta: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: DASPLETOSAURUS!
Vegeta fired a wave of earth and it formed into the theropod from 77 million years ago: Daspletosaurus!
Daspletosaurus (/dæsˌpliːtəˈsɔːrəs/ das-PLEET-o-SAWR-əs; meaning "frightful lizard") is a genus of tyrannosaurid dinosaur that lived in western North America between about 77 and 74 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous Period. The genus Daspletosaurus contains two species. Fossils of the earlier type species, D. torosus, have been found in Alberta, while fossils of the later second species, D. horneri, have been found only in Montana. A possible third species, also from Alberta, awaits formal identification. Daspletosaurus is closely related to the much larger and more recent tyrannosaurid Tyrannosaurus rex. Like most tyrannosaurids, Daspletosaurus was a multi-tonne bipedal predator equipped with dozens of large, sharp teeth. Daspletosaurus had the small forelimbs typical of tyrannosaurids, although they were proportionately longer than in other genera.
As an apex predator, Daspletosaurus was at the top of the food chain, probably preying on large dinosaurs like the ceratopsid Centrosaurus and the hadrosaur Hypacrosaurus. In some areas, Daspletosaurus coexisted with another tyrannosaurid, Gorgosaurus, though there is some evidence of niche differentiation between the two. While Daspletosaurus fossils are rarer than other tyrannosaurids', the available specimens allow some analysis of the biology of these animals, including social behavior, diet and life history.

Gohan: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: SINOCERATOPS!
Gohan fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ceratopsian from 73.5 million years ago: Sinoceratops!
Sinoceratops /ˌsaɪnoʊˈsɛrətɒps/ is an extinct genus of ceratopsian dinosaur that lived approximately 73 million years ago during the latter part of the Cretaceous Period in what is now Shandong province in China. It was named in 2010 by Xu Xing et al. for three skulls from Zhucheng, China. The name of its type species Sinoceratops zhuchengensis means "Chinese horned face from Zhucheng", after the location of its discovery.
Sinoceratops was a medium-sized, averagely-built, ground-dwelling, quadrupedal herbivore. It could grow up to an estimated 6 m (19.7 ft) length and 2 metres (6.6 ft) height, and weigh up to 2 tonnes (2.0 long tons; 2.2 short tons). It was the first ceratopsid dinosaur discovered in China, and the only ceratopsid known from Asia. All other centrosaurines, and all chasmosaurines, are known from fossils discovered in North America, except for possibly Turanoceratops. Sinoceratops is also significant because it is one of the largest known centrosaurines, and is much larger than any other known basal members of this group.
Sinoceratops was discovered in the Xingezhuang Formation, which was deposited during the late Cretaceous. It lived alongside leptoceratopsids, saurolophines, and tyrannosaurines. The most common creature in the formation was Shantungosaurus, to which most of the material has been assigned. The animals living alongside Sinoceratops and Shantungosaurus were Zhuchengceratops, Zhuchengtitan, and Zhuchengtyrannus.

Me: WOLF FIRE STYLE NINJA ART: AMPHICOELIAS!
I fired a blast of blue fire and it formed into one of the largest sauropod dinosaurs ever discovered from 150 million years ago: Amphicoelias!
Amphicoelias (/ˌæmfɪˈsiːliəs/, meaning "biconcave", from the Greek ἀμφί, amphi: "on both sides", and κοῖλος, koilos: "hollow, concave") is a genus of herbivorous sauropod dinosaur that lived approximately 150 million years ago during the Tithonian (Late Jurassic Period) of what is now Colorado, United States. An herbivore, Amphicoelias was moderately sized at about 25 m (82 ft) long–roughly the same length as Diplodocus, to which it was related. Its hindlimbs were very long and thin, and its forelimbs were proportionally longer than in relatives.
The namesake fossil of the type species Amphicoelias altus, American Museum of Natural History 5764, is uncertain in included material. When described by Edward Drinker Cope shortly after its discovery in 1877, Amphicoelias was noted to include many back vertebrae, a single pubis, and a femur. However, after purchase and cataloging of the material by the AMNH, Henry Fairfield Osborn and Charles Mook described that the specimen had only two vertebrae, a pubis, femur, tooth, scapula, coracoid, ulna and a second femur. The additional material, not mentioned by Cope, was found close in proximity to the holotype and was similar to Diplodocus, a relative of Amphicoelias. Their assignment was questioned by subsequent authors Emanuel Tschopp et al. in an analysis of Diplodocidae.
During the description of Amphicoelias altus in 1877, Cope additionally named A. latus, for a femur and tail vertebrae. Following its description, Osborn and Mook in 1921 reidentified the material as a specimen of Camarasaurus, an assignment followed by other authors who reviewed the material. A year later 1878, Cope named the third species of Amphicoelias, A. fragillimus for a gigantic dorsal vertebra that was subsequently lost. Measuring approximately 2.7 m (8.9 ft) if reconstructed based on Diplodocus, early estimates for the length of the animal in life were between 40 and 60 m (130 and 200 ft) long. Due to the incomplete nature, such lengths–the longest of any known dinosaur and sauropod–were largely ignored. In 2018, Kenneth Carpenter renamed Amphicoelias fragillimus as the new genus Maraapunisaurus, and reclassified it from Diplodocidae to Rebbachisauridae.
Sonic: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: EUDIMORPHODON!
Sonic fired a wave of wind and it formed into the flying reptile from Italy that lived 210 million years ago: Eudimorphodon!
Eudimorphodon was a pterosaur that was discovered in 1973 by Mario Pandolfi in the town of Cene, Italy and described the same year by Rocco Zambelli. The nearly complete skeleton was retrieved from shale deposited during the Late Triassic (mid to late Norian stage), making Eudimorphodon one of the oldest pterosaurs known. It had a wingspan of about 100 centimetres (3.3 ft) and at the end of its long bony tail may have been a diamond-shaped flap like in the later Rhamphorhynchus. If so, the flap may have helped it steer while maneuvering in the air. Eudimorphodon is known from several skeletons, including juvenile specimens.
Aylene C: FIRE STYLE NINJA ART: HEILONGJIANGOSAURUS!
Aylene fired a wave of fire and it formed into the stegosaur from 76 million years ago: Heilongjiangosaurus!
Heilongjiangosaurus" (meaning "Heilongjiang lizard") is the informal name given to an as-yet undescribed genus of duckbilled dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous. It possibly was a lambeosaurine, and may in fact be the same animal as Charonosaurus. The fossils were found in Maastrichtian-age rocks in Heilongjiang, China. As a nomen nudum, it is unclear what material it was intended to be based on, but might be connected to the nomen nudum "Mandschurosaurus" jiainensis, informally named in a 1983 publication.
The "type species" is "H. jiayinensis", and it was coined in 2001 in a faunal list by Li and Jin.
Cera: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: OJOCERATOPS!
Cera fired a wave of earth and it formed into the ceratopsian from 68 million years ago: Ojoceratops!
Ojoceratops ( meaning "Ojo Alamo horned face") is a genus of ceratopsian dinosaur which lived in what is now New Mexico, United States. Ojoceratops fossils have been recovered from strata of the Ojo Alamo Formation (Naashoibito Member), dating to the late Cretaceous period (probably Maastrichtian age, 68 million years ago). The type species is Ojoceratops fowleri. It is very similar to its close relative Triceratops, though it is from an earlier time period and has a more squared-off frill. Nick Longrich, in 2011, noted that the squared-off frill is also found in some true Triceratops specimens and that Ojoceratops is probably a junior synonym of Triceratops, while Holtz (2010) noted that it is probably ancestral to Triceratops and possibly synonymous with the contemporary Eotriceratops.
Ducky: EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: GRYPOSAURUS!
Ducky fired a wave of earth and it formed into the hadrosaur from 80 million years ago: Gryposaurus!
Gryposaurus (meaning "hooked-nosed (Greek grypos) lizard"; sometimes incorrectly translated as "griffin (Latin gryphus) lizard") was a genus of duckbilled dinosaur that lived about 80 to 75 million years ago, in the Late Cretaceous (late Santonian to late Campanian stages) of North America. Named species of Gryposaurus are known from the Dinosaur Park Formation in Alberta, Canada, and two formations in the United States: the Lower Two Medicine Formation in Montana and the Kaiparowits Formation of Utah. A possible additional species may extend the temporal range of the genus to 66 million years ago.
Gryposaurus is similar to Kritosaurus, and for many years the two were thought to be synonyms. It is known from numerous skulls, some skeletons, and even some skin impressions that show it to have had pyramidal scales projecting along the midline of the back. It is most easily distinguished from other duckbills by its narrow arching nasal hump, sometimes described as similar to a "Roman nose," and which may have been used for species or sexual identification, and/or combat with individuals of the same species. A large bipedal/quadrupedal herbivore around 9 meters (30 feet) long, it may have preferred river settings.
Petrie: WIND STYLE NINJA ART: TROPEOGNATHUS!
Petrie fired a wave of wind and it formed into the flying reptile from 112 million years ago: Tropeognathus!
Tropeognathus (meaning "keel jaw") is a genus of large pterosaurs from the late Early Cretaceous of South America. This genus is considered to be a member of the Ornithocheiridae, a diverse group of pterosaurs known for their keel-tipped snouts and large size. Tropeognathus is regarded as the largest pterosaur found in the Southern Hemisphere, only rivaled by the huge azhdarchids. The type and only species is Tropeognathus mesembrinus. Fossil remains of Tropeognathus have been recovered from the Romualdo Formation, which is a Lagerstätte located in the Santana Group of the Araripe Basin in northeastern Brazil.
Spike: (Through translator) EARTH STYLE NINJA ART: DRAVIDOSAURUS!
Spike fired a wave of earth and it formed into the Dravidanidu dinosaur from 90 million years ago: Dravidosaurus!
Dravidosaurus (meaning "Dravidanadu lizard", Dravidanadu being a region in the southern part of India where the remains were discovered) is a controversial genus of prehistoric reptile. It was first described as the last surviving stegosaurian, the group of "plated" dinosaurs. With an estimated length of three metres (10 ft), it would have also been the smallest member of the group. More recent studies, however, have shown that the bones actually belonged to a plesiosaurian marine reptile, and that none of the remains are demonstrably dinosaurian in origin.
Dravidosaurus lived in the Late Cretaceous period (Coniacian stage) of what is now India. It is only known from disassociated remains that were originally described as comprising a partial skull, a tooth, a sacrum, an ilium, an ischium, a dermal plate, and a spike. The badly weathered remains were discovered in marine deposits near Ariyalur in the state of Tamil Nadu in South India. They were in 1979 named by P.M. Yadagiri and Krishnan Ayyasami as the type species Dravidosaurus blanfordi, the specific name honouring William Thomas Blanford. The holotype partial skull is catalogued as GSI SR Pal 1, while other specimens are catalogued GSI SR Pal 2-7.
In 1991, Sankar Chatterjee visited the site and claimed, without presenting concrete morphological evidence, that Dravidosaurus was based on plesiosaurian pelvic and hindlimb elements, the species being a nomen dubium. However, this claim was rejected by Galton and Upchurch (2004), who noted that the skull, tooth and plate of Dravidosaurus are certainly not plesiosaurian as illustrated. Galton and Ayyasami (2017) reaffirmed the stegosaurian classification of Dravidosaurus, claiming the remains do not look like plesiosaurian pelvic and hindlimb elements. They announced that stegosaurian remains from the Dravidosaurus type locality are under study by one of the original describers of Dravidosaurus.
Chomper: FIRE STYLE NINJA ART: ZHUCHENGTYRANNUS!
Chomper fired a wave of fire and it formed into the theropod from 73.5 million years ago: Zhuchengtyrannus!
Zhuchengtyrannus (meaning "Zhucheng tyrant") is a genus of tyrannosaurid theropod dinosaur known from the Late Cretaceous period of Shandong Province, China. It belongs to the tyrannosaurinae subfamily, and contains a single species, Zhuchengtyrannus magnus.
Emerald Sustrai: CRYSTAL STYLE NINJA ART: KRONOSAURUS!
Emerald fired a wave of emerald crystal and it formed into the marine reptile from Australia that lived 120 million years ago: Kronosaurus!
Kronosaurus (/ˌkrɒnoʊˈsɔːrəs/ KRON-o-SAWR-əs; meaning "lizard of Kronos") is an extinct genus of short-necked pliosaur. With an estimated length of 9 to 10.9 meters (30 to 36 ft), it was among the largest pliosaurs, and is named after the leader of the Greek Titans, Kronos. It lived in the Early Cretaceous period (Aptian to Late Albian). Fossil material has been recovered from the Toolebuc Formation (middle to late Albian) and Wallumbilla Formations (Aptian) of Queensland and New South Wales in Australia, and from the upper Paja Formation (late Aptian) in Boyacá, Colombia, and assigned to two species.
