Megazord
This combination would be the first to demonstrate a rare ability among Megazords: that of transformation within its combined state.
The first stage of combination of the Dinozords was a tank-like vehicle, traveling on treads and wheels from the Triceratops and Saber-Tooth Tiger, and armed with a pair of main cannons derived from Mastodon.
Tyrannosaurus formed the central body around which all the other components connected.
In addition to the large cannons, the tank could also fire directed energy beams from the eyes of all the Dinozords.
Despite being impressively shielded and well-armed, the utility of this formation was limited, especially in combat with agile, moving targets.
As such, the tank formation of the Dinozords was usually only a brief transitional step in the sequence of forming Megazord. This form is rarely used for prolonged battle.
After forming the tank mode, the Rangers could initiate transformation into the Dino Megazord's battle mode.
This usually began with a computerized voice stating "Megazord sequence has been initiated," concluding with "Megazord activated!" after reconnection of Pterodactyl and head crests sliding into position.
In this mode, Dino Megazord features fewer ranged energy weapons, but makes up for this in greatly expanded close combat potential.
Though able to easily match blows with most monsters set against it, it was not uncommon to need more power and weapons to bring an end to a battle.
When this became necessary, any Power Ranger, but usually the Red Ranger, would summon the Power Sword.
Descending from the sky, the sword would embed itself into the ground nearby, or on some occasions be caught directly by Dino Megazord.
The Power Sword not only made it stronger, but could be used as a substitute power supply when the main sources were unavailable.
Dino Megazord's Power Sword allowed him to perform his typical finisher move, an upward and horizontal slash with the sword energized, throwing an energy wave into the target.
This energy usually resulted in the explosive destruction of whatever monster it struck.
The head of the Mastodon zord could also be utilized as a shield.
