Rexes are rare enemies in ''Super Mario World'' which behave similarly [[Goomba]]s in that they simply walk in Mario's direction. They are usually found in small groups. In order to defeat a Rex, Mario needs to jump on it twice. After being jumped on once, a Rex gets its upper body stomped into its torso, reducing its height by half and causing it to move slightly quicker. If a Rex gets stomped on a second time, it gets defeated and flattened completely. A [[Spin Jump]] can destroy them in one hit, as will shooting a [[fireball]], hitting it with a [[cape]] or running into it while using a [[Super Star|Starman]]. Rexes can also be eaten by Yoshi. Rexes can be found in [[Yoshi's Island 1]], [[Chocolate Island 2]], and [[Awesome]], each time in relatively large amounts.

Rexes, referred to by the generic term '''Dinosaurs''', make several appearances in the ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' animated series. The Rexes of ''Super Mario World'' come in different colors, such as green, red and yellow. Unlike in the game, they bear at least some resemblance to actual dinosaurs, they lack shoes, have clawed hands and feet, and their lower jaw now has different coloring from their belly. Some Rexes have bird-like wings, and others have second nasal horns.

A Rex has appeared in [[Super Mario-kun Volume 3|volume 3]] of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. Yoshi invites Mario and Luigi to meet his friend, a Rex who decided to turn against Bowser. He captures the Mario Bros. and attacks Yoshi, thinking they are working for Bowser. After the Mario Bros. demand an explanation, Yoshi convinces the Rex that he is a friend by showing his long tongue. The four then go into Rex's house, where Yoshi demands food, and Rex promises to cook. However, a Magikoopa and a Koopa Troopa called "Number 3" then use the [[kamemeka]] (an enchanted Koopa Shell) to brainwash Rex. Rex then makes a poisoned soup in attempt to defeat Mario, which Yoshi quickly digests. Rex then smugly asks if Yoshi enjoys the poisoned meal, which shocks Mario. After some groaning, however, Yoshi claims it was "delicious". Mario calls Yoshi an idiot, pointing out Rex's intention to kill them, but Yoshi denies it, saying that Rex is only a harmless friend.

Rexes appear in the interactive anime video ''[[Super Mario World: Mario to Yoshi no Bōken Land]]''. When the Mario Bros. discover Yoshi's egg on Yoshi's Island, [[Luigi]] prompts the player to answer which character is inside, with a Rex being one of the incorrect answers. When leaving the island, the Mario Bros. and Yoshi are confronted by [[Iggy Koopa]] alongside [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Chargin' Chuck]]s and Rexes. Mario then prompts the player to answer which enemies there are more of, with five Rexes being the incorrect answer (the correct answer being six Koopa Troopas).

Rexes reappear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' as enemies located on [[Hoohoo Mountain]], past the Hoohooros Gate. They do not appear in the overworld, and are only seen in battle alongside [[Dry Bones]] or [[Beanie]]s. Like in ''Super Mario World'', Rexes attack Mario or Luigi by charging into them, and can be flattened by [[jump]]ing on them. When they are at their full size, the Rexes' attacks cannot be dodged or countered, as they are too tall to jump over; they must be at least partly flattened for the Bros. to counterattack without getting hit. Jumping on a Rex a second time flattens it even more, though it does not decrease in height any further afterward.

Jumping on a Rex a second time flattens it even more, though it does not decrease in height any further afterward.


In the original game, Rexes drop different items depending on if they were flattened or not upon defeat: if defeated with Hammer attacks or a strong enough Jump attack to defeat it in one hit, they drop Syrups; when defeated while flattened, they drop 1-Up Mushrooms (with Green Peppers replacing them as rare drops in the Japanese version). Rexes are healed with fire-based attacks, but take normal damage from thunder attacks.

In the remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', Rexes reprise their role from the original game, and are much larger; however, Mario and Luigi can now counterattack them when they are at their full size. Rexes also make high-pitched grunts when jumped on. They also appear as enemies in ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'', where they are Melee troopers, and attack by charging into opponents. Their Special Skill, Mega Tackle, allows them to charge quickly into an opponent, inflicting more damage than a regular charge. Rexes are the only standard ''Super Mario'' franchise enemies in the game that cannot be recruited as allies. As an enemy captain, the Rex is silent when using Captain Commands, with only an ellipses in its text box.

Normal Rexes appear in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', first appearing in [[Fury Volcano 4-1]]. Their behavior is mostly unchanged ''Super Mario World''. When jumped on, they shrink and can be defeated by another stomp, though they can be defeated instantly by any other attack. Rexes who have been affected by the [[Gloom|Sad Vibe]], called [[Sad Rex]]es, also appear. Sad Rexes will not move until [[Princess Peach]] approaches, in which case they will charge at her. Jumping on them will turn them into regular flattened Rexes, however, and they can be defeated using the same methods as normal counterpart.

==Physical description and traits==
===Physical appearance and traits===
Rexes are dinosaur-like dragons with single nasal horns, large fangs, and small dragon wings. They have purplish bodies with an orange pattern that covers their bottom jaw and runs down from the sides of their mouths to underneath their bellies (there is no known orange pattern on the bottom of their tails). The main color of the Rexes' bodies varies between games and official artwork: the official artwork for ''Super Mario World'' depicts them having dark blue bodies, but in games the color is often violet or purple (with the exception of ''Super Princess Peach'' which is a solid blue). There are three rib patterns on the orange part of their bellies. Their tails have two small spines down the center. Rexes wear big red shoes similar to [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]], but are more simplistic in design and have smaller beige soles underneath. Rexes have no nostrils and the backs of their heads do not have any distinguishing traits. In earlier game installments and artwork, Rexes are depicted with tiny fingers, but in some Japanese ''Super Mario'' picture books and ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', they have actual fingers.

Rexes have small wings, but cannot fly. The wings' membranes are often red and have three "fingers", and slightly thick "arms". In official artwork, the color of the wings' arms is a deep orange, and the membranes the same color as the Rex's belly. Starting from ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', the color the wings' arms match the color the Rex's body, and the membranes are red, matching the color of their shoes.

The depiction of the Rexes' pupil shape varies, with some showing them as round and open, and others showing them as a dash-shaped squinting shape, likely based off {{file link|SMW Art - Rex Stomp.png|a piece of artwork}} for ''Super Mario World'' showing one squinting from being jumped on, which is edited in certain publications to remove this context. In ''Super Mario World'', ''Mario & Wario'', ''Super Princess Peach'', and the Super Mario Mash-up in ''Minecraft'', their pupils are open; in some other games, such as ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', the pupils are shown in a squinting shape. In the original ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', their pupils briefly open when hit. A variant of the Rex, the Shroob Rex, are depicted with open eyes. Both designs of the Rexes' eyes are depicted as being connected together.
The depiction of the Rexes' eyes between artwork and games vary between always closed or with small pupils when open. In ''Super Mario World'', ''Mario & Wario'', ''Super Princess Peach'', and the Super Mario Mash-up in ''Minecraft'', their eyes are open, and in the original ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' their pupils can be seen when they're hit. In most other games or artwork, their eyes are shut. A variant of the Rex, the Shroob Rex, are depicted with open eyes. Both the Rexes' eyes are depicted as being connected together.


In the games, Rexes are taller than the Mario Bros. while even in Super form, and are even larger in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''. Their size is used as a gameplay mechanic in the ''Mario & Luigi'' games where they are too tall for the player to jump over when dodging or counterattacking them while at their full size (regular Rexes in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', and Shroob Rexes in ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''), and must be shrunken down to counterattack them safely. The Rexes in ''Super Princess Peach'' are smaller however, standing slightly shorter than Princess Peach herself.
