Watch dinosaurs be kings

If you like watching dinosaurs beating the snot out of each other, you'll probably enjoy the Dinosaur King trailer above. The battle animations looked pretty cool to us, and we found ourselves letting go of some of the worries that plagued us earlier.
Even so, we were disappointed when watching the second gameplay trailer (embedded below), only to see that the stegosaurus has the exact same moves as the triceratops. If all the dinosaurs can do the same things, we can foresee the battles in the game getting old fast.
It does seem that each dinosaur has an attack specific to its own kind, though, so we hope that will be enough to keep things interesting.

I was going to complain that triceratops doesn't have a spiked tail, and therefore shouldn't be able to use an attack called "Spiked Tail Smash," but then it turned into a ball of electricity and smashed the other dinosaur into a wall. So yeah, I guess they're not going for accuracy.

is combat being decided via rock-paper-scissors?

That combat
That's what Pokemon should look like
Not with the dumb trainer taunts, just the combat
