** In "The Mayor of Skoropolis" Skor infects the mayor with a prehistoric disease and takes over the city as deputy mayor simply because he felt the people of Megalopolis didn't appreciate him (not sending him any fan mail and only getting hits from unknown people on his blog).

* InsaneTrollLogic: In "Jet Lays an Egg", Jet accidentally brings an egg mutated by Skor home with him and becomes convinced he laid it. When his friends point out the biggest reason why that can't be true, Jet's defense is this: he has wings, as do birds. Birds also lay eggs, therefore he laid the egg.

* CartoonCreature: Skor and Skrap don't look like any real dinosaur-- not even by the show's low standards of accuracy.



* {{Fartillery}}: The episode "Silent But Dino" is about Chow getting terrible gas after eating food that Skor secretly gave him. Chow ends up weaponizing his farts and using them to fly in order to fight Skor's giant gas monster.



* NearVillainVictory: In the episode Mindless Fun, Skor summoned a mutant that put Kane, Lucy and Chow under mind control by shooting brain worms at them, allowing him to take control of the museum and obtain the fossilized mutants. He would've succeeded completely if Jet hadn't avoided being hit by the worms.

In the city of Megalopolis, six dinosaurs are thawed out in the basement of the museum when young aspiring paleontologist and technological genius Edgar Chudley accidentally causes a city wide blackout. One year later, Edgar discovers that four of the dinos, Kane (a T-rex) Jet (a pteranodon) Chow (a stegosaurus) and Lucy (a triceratops) have been living in the museum basement and have taught themselves kung fu. They befriend Edgar and the group now work together to foil the plans of the other two dinos, raptor brothers evil Skor and dimwitted Skrap, who hunt for crystals that contain mutant DNA with which Skor can create monstrous dinosaurs to conquer the world. Compare/contrast with other dinosaur shows like ''WesternAnimation/{{Dinosaucers}}'', ''WesternAnimation/ExtremeDinosaurs'' and ''WesternAnimation/DinoSquad''.
