The '''Robot Dinosaur''' is an invincible enemy from ''[[Rayman 2]]'' and its remakes. It goes unnamed in all versions but the PlayStation version.


==Description==
==Description==
The Dinosaur is a giant, remote-controlled robot with a head resembling that of a [[Teensie]]'s, along with two raptor-like legs. It tends to hop a lot like a kangaroo.
The Robot Dinosaur is a gigantic, remote-controlled robot with a head resembling that of a [[Teensie]], along with two raptor-like legs. It tends to hop like a large bird and makes noises almost like a chicken. It can be seen pecking the ground at times.
 
The Robot Dinosaur was used by the [[Spyglass Pirate]] to search [[the Iron Mountains]] for [[Four Masks of Polokus|the fourth mask of Polokus]]. If anything escaped, it would persistently chase down the escapee.
 
==In ''[[Rayman 2]]''==
The Robot Dinosaur does not appear until the second phase of [[the Iron Mountains]]. It is dangerous for [[Rayman]] to approach it, but otherwise helpful: its jumping makes a crate bounce just high enough for [[Rayman]] to enter the [[Reformatory for Disturbing Children]] and rescue the [[baby Globox]]es. Similarly a crate bounces inside the [[Reformatory for Disturbing Children|Reformatory]]; this allows [[Rayman]] to reach the [[Reformatory for Disturbing Children|Reformatory]]'s roof.
 
However, once [[Rayman]] reaches the roof, the Robot Dinosaur's role is another story completely. After [[Rayman]], riding a [[walking shell]], releases [[Globox]]'s [[Baby Globox|children]] from the [[Reformatory for Disturbing Children|Reformatory]], [[Rayman]] will find himself back where he first encountered the Robot Dinosaur. This time, the Robot Dinosaur will give chase to [[Rayman]] and attempt to stomp on him. Due to the fragile nature of the [[walking shell]], [[Rayman]] must ensure that he does not come into contact with the Robot Dinosaur, as it will cause him to lose health and respawn back into the [[Reformatory for Disturbing Children|Reformatory]].
 
Despite its harmful tactics, by chasing [[Rayman]], it can destroy [[menhir]]s that were covering [[Yellow Lum]]s, and allow [[Rayman]] to collect them. In order to escape the Robot Dinosaur, [[Rayman]] must use the [[walking shell]] to cross a broken bridge leading to a cave, the [[walking shell]] will give [[Rayman]] extra airtime to quickly jump off and reach the other side.

===PlayStation version===
The exception to the role is the PlayStation version of ''[[Rayman 2]]''. In the other versions, the Robot Dinosaur stands guard outside the [[Reformatory for Disturbing Children]], in this version, it is situated within the pen that the captive [[baby Globox]]es inhabit. Once [[Baby Globox|the babies]] have been freed, the Robot Dinosaur will attempt to chase them, but will fall over as the [[Spyglass Pirate]] has forgotten to put fuel in the Robot Dinosaur's tank, rendering the Robot Dinosaur inert.


The Dinosaur was used by [[Admiral Razorbeard's Lackey]] to patrol the [[The Reformatory for Disturbing Children|Reformatory for Disturbing Children]] in the [[Iron Mountains]].  If anything escaped, it would persistently chase down the escaper.
The unlockable [[Rayman 2 (cancelled prototype)|2D prototype version of ''Rayman 2'']] also features a Robot Dinosaur. [[Rayman]] could jump on it and ride it, and could also smash its head and turn it into a platform.


==Role in the Games==
<gallery widths="320px" heights="180px">
The Dinosaur doesn't appear until the grand finale of the Iron Mountains.  It is dangerous for [[Rayman (character)|Rayman]] to approach, but otherwise helpful: its jumping makes a crate bounce just high enough for Rayman to enter the Reformatory.  Similarly, a crate bounces inside the Reformatory; this allows Rayman to reach the Reformatory's roof.

However, once Rayman reaches the roof the Dinosaur's role is another story completely.  After Rayman releases [[Globox]]'s [[Baby Globox|children]] from the Reformatory, the Dinosaur is quick to react.  Rayman must speedily zip by the incoming Dinosaur or risk being flattened.

The exception to the rule is the PS version of ''Rayman 2'', in which Razorbeard's lackey accidentally breaks the remote control, rendering the Dinosaur useless.
