Hacksauri are powerful members of the dragon family, introduced in ''VI'' as one of the strongest end-game enemy types. Though later titles would have the species trade positions with the Tyrantosaurus monsters, the Hacksaurus is still considered by most players to be a dangerous foe when first encountered.

Though later titles would have the species trade positions with the Tyrantosaurus monsters, the Hacksaurus is still considered by most players to be a dangerous foe when first encountered. As demonstrated in the [[Arkbolt]] cave, the species exhibits r-type reproductive strategy, with the mother only watching over her offspring until their eggs hatch. Also of note, said eggs will hatch into [[Diethon]]s when examined by the player. Though this is likely due to game difficulty balancing more than anything, it could suggest a metamorphic relationship between the two types of monsters in a similar to the fan-precieved relationship between [[Small fry|Small Fries]] and [[Great Dragon]]s. | ||

This precedent was set by [[Lizzie]], the very first Hacksaurus introduced in the series and the most popular monstrous companion in the series, outside of the slime family. This theme was reinforced in ''VIII'' by Hackzilla, one of the first infamous monsters (on-screen encounter) new players will stumble upon. | Interestingly, the species has made a name for itself by being one of the most easily recuritable members of the [[Dragon family]].
