Godzilla: The Series
"Cash of the Titans"
Rhinosaurus was a creature that was enslaved by Maximilian Spiel, and forced to fight in a mutation arena. Rhinosaurus was pitted against Godzilla, after Spiel kidnapped him. The two fought, and eventually Spiel forced Niko Tatopoulos and Elsie Chapman into the ring as well. Rhinosaurus held his own in combat, and soon Spiel released the Giant Water Beetle and started firing upon Godzilla with energy beams to blind him and give Rhinosaurus the advantage. Mendel Craven destroyed the beam-emitter, allowing Godzilla to properly fight. As Rhinosaurus charged, Godzilla knocked him off balance and defeated him. H.E.A.T. later used fragments of Rhinosaurus' horn to goad the Giant Water Beetle into charging Godzilla, who knocked it away and caused it to pin Spiel.
Abilities
Physical abilities
The Rhinosaurus did not posses any special abilities, for it was merely a titanic rhinoceros. However, the Rhinosaurus was still a force to be reckoned with, being equipped with thick, durable hide and a massive horn.
Roar
The Rhinosaurus' roars are reused from those of the Giant Turtle.
