Card

Cherished Hatchling

Creature — Dinosaur


When Cherished Hatchling 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 the battlefield, you may have it fight another target creature."

Despite its appearance, it's anything but defenseless.
