| Dilophosaurus | Mythical | 3% | Every ~13 min, sprays venom reducing cooldowns or giving XP to random pets. |
| Pachycephalosaurus | Legendary | 28% | ~6–7% chance to duplicate any crafted item. |
| Iguanodon | Legendary | 32.5% | Grants ~+0.45 XP/sec to all active dino pets. |
| Parasaurolophus | Legendary | 35% | Every 80 sec, reduces makeup box timers by 80 sec (26% chance to double the effect). |
