Revision as of 14:19, 21 May 2018

Red Dinos, or Stegosaurus stenops, are an original species on the site, having been released on June 19, 2007, alongside Storm Dragons and Yellow Dinos. Dinos are a special release of creatures as opposed to the traditional dragons found on the site; they do not possess genders and cannot breed. They also cannot be revived if killed.

Dinos come in 5 colors: Green, Red, Blue, Yellow and Purple. Purple Dinos are the only color not considered an original species of Dragon Cave, having been instead introduced on July 15, 2009.

Adult Dinos used to originally possess genders, with all of them gendering male (and later female, shortly before the change to remove genders entirely). Despite having genders though, they still could not breed. The current sprites were based loosely on the sprites of Yoshi, which were the Dinos' original sprites before the Great Fog. It is because of this that they have a different art direction than the rest of the dragons on-site, opting for a more light-hearted and cartoonish style. Another theory for this art direction however, is that they're not considered entirely serious in terms of the game's lore, and are seen as more of an on-site joke like the Chickens.

Under the old Breed sort, these creatures sorted as "Yoshi Red" on a user's scroll. As of August 14, 2016, they now sort using their Encyclopedia name with other non-dragons at the bottom of users' scrolls.

Trivia

The original sprites for Dinos didn't have a differing sprite for hatchling and mature hatchlings, much like the Chicken still has today.

-These "dragons" are not really dragons at all! Based loosely on the sprites from [http://mario.wikia.com/wiki/Yoshi Yoshi], this shoe-wearing dino features a much different, lighthearted style than the more serious dragons. Grown dinos possess no known gender and are therefore unbreedable. Previously, however, dinos were all gendered male.
-Dinos come in 5 colors: [[Green Dino|Green,]] [[Red Dino|Red]], [[Blue Dino|Blue]], [[Yellow Dino|Yellow]] and [[Purple Dino|Purple]]. Purple was the only color not on the site from the start and was added on the 15th of July 2009. The old sprites of the Dinos were actually in fact different colored Yoshi sprites. This Dino has no breed specific action and is classed as rare.
