Kodai, Kenryu

古代剣竜博士

Max's father and a paleontologist. Like Max, Spike is obsessed with dinosaurs and runs the D-Lab. He frequently uses a whip that tends to snag on objects, usually ones he did not intend to hit. Dr. Taylor can also overreact when a dinosaur appears. He rescues the D-Team when they are cornered by the Alpha Gang and captures the new cards. His name is a pun on "Spike Tail" (AKA: Stegosaurs). He also recaptures the Dino-holders from Seth. In the second season, he, Aki, the Ancients, and the Drakes are captured by Zanjark.
