Gameplay

Creature — Dinosaur

When this creature dies, you may cast Dinosaur spells this turn as though they had flash, and whenever you cast a Dinosaur spell this turn, it gains "When this creature enters, you may have it fight another target creature."

Despite its appearance, it's anything but defenseless.

You must pay the costs for spells you cast this way. If there's an alternative cost you can pay instead of the mana cost for a Dinosaur spell, you may pay that cost instead.

During the turn Cherished Hatchling dies, you may cast any number of Dinosaurs as though they had flash.

2018-01-19wotc

For the triggered ability that the entering Dinosaur gains, if the target is illegal when it tries to resolve or if the Dinosaur that entered the battlefield has left the battlefield, no creature will deal or be dealt damage.
