Spiny (Spino) was the Alpha Gang 's second dinosaur, and was the first wild dinosaur to become a main dinosaur.

StatisticsEdit

• Species: Spinosaurus
• Attribute: Water
• Power: 1600
• Technique: 700
• Sign: Scissors
• Owner: Alpha Gang
• Name: Spiny (スピノ Spino)
• Dinosaurs Defeated: Chomp, Ace, Paris, Styracosaurus, Euoplocephalus, Megaraptor, Anchiceratops, Saurolophus, Deltadromeus, Black Tyrannosaurus (with assistance), Jobaria, Gigas
• Other: Spiny is typically summoned by Zander or Ursula, and is summoned by Zander when the Alpha trio all summon dinosaurs. He seems to have a rivalry with Paris, who usually defeats him with Metal Wing. His upgraded form in the arcade game is Super Spiny, and he has a DinoTector form in the arcade and anime. As the Alpha Gang's fastest and most agile dinosaur, he is able to catch fast dinosaurs and is an adept swimmer. However, he isn't the strongest, and many of the smaller dinosaurs he faces (like Ace and Achelousaurus) have an easy time knocking him around like a rag-doll.

Move CardsEdit

Shockwave

Cancel your opponent's Move Card and attack at the same time. It is first seen in Tanks a Lot!, used against Paris.

Tail Smash

Smack your opponent with your tail twice, then throw them back with a final swing. However, agile dinosaurs can dodge it, as Ace did in Field of Screams.

Water Sword

Use a giant sword of water to attack your opponent. Spiny used it but it was countered by Jobaria 's Shockwave.

Futaba Super Cannon

Futabasaurus hits your opponent with a high-powered blast of water. This Move was first used to fight of the D-Team, but Futaba turned on the Alpha Gang. Later, Ursula used it to fight Jobaria and Ophthalmosaurus.

Ultimate Water

Spiny charges at the opponent after being launched by a wave. Spiny first used it against Jobaria.

Anhanguera Dive

An Anhanguera dives at at your opponent. This was only used to save the D-Team after falling of a bridge and to chase Foolscap away.

Hydro Cutter

A beam of water slices through your opponent. This was obtained after Genie' defeat, and only used as part of the Fusion Move to attack the Dark Pterosaur.

AnimeEdit

Dinosaur KingEdit

He was captured by the Alpha Gang and named Spiny in Battle at the Pyramids. He is also the largest unaltered main dinosaur after Brontikens.

He is the second-most common used of the Alpha Gang's dinosaurs after Terry, being part of almost every 2-dinosaur team the Alpha Gang summons, but seems to lose as if not more often than he wins (one of his few easy victories was against Deltadromeus). In Bungle in the Jungle, Spiny becomes weak when he didn't eat breakfast, allowing him to be defeated by Saltasaurus.

Mesozoic MeltdownEdit

He first used DinoTector armor in High Sea Chase, defeating the larger Jobaria . After this 'heroic stand', however, the Alpha Gang 's involvement in dino battles decreases, as does their effectiveness in them, and Spiny loses most of his subsequent battles.

In the final battle of Fate of the Cosmos, he helps break into the Dark Pterosaur, but is quickly defeated by Armatus.

DS GameEdit

• Spiny can be accessed on the DS Game by putting a specific code on the Stone Circle after beating Dr. Z with his Tyrannosaurus, Mapusaurus, and Saurophaganax.

TriviaEdit

• Spiny was the first spinosaurid to appear in the anime.
• Spiny is one of the few dinosaurs to fight his cousins.
• The battle between Terry and Spiny was probably based off the battle between Spinosaurus & T. rex in Jurassic Park III although this time the T. rex was the victor.
• In the English version, most of Spiny's sounds are from grizzly bears, though the Spinosaurus arcade roar is sometimes heard at the tail end. In the Japanese version, Spiny's roars are used repeatly for other dinosaurs such as Acrocanthosaurus, Pachyrhinosaurus, and Tyrannosaurus, including his arcade roar.
• Spiny is the only main dinosaur to be activated where his species are found ( Paris' card was found in Canada, where Parasaurolophus fossils have been found, but not activated)
