Pachyrhinosaurus, meaning "thick-nosed lizard", was a medium sized centrosaurine ceratopsian that lived in the Late Cretaceous Period of North America around 72-70 million years ago. It's most defining feature was its huge, bony mass, or lump, on its face. It was about 20 feet long and about 10 feet tall. It was closely related to Styracosaurus and more distantly related to Triceratops.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
According to information from the Dinosaur Protection Group, Pachyrhinosaurus was on InGen's List and was planned to be an attraction for Jurassic Park, with 8% of its genome being completed, but this never came to pass due to InGen's financial troubles. The ceratopsian was eventually recreated by the Masrani Global Corporation for use in Jurassic World.
While no Pachyrhinosaurus appeared in the film, it has been revealed that there were surviving Pachyrhinosaurus populations on Isla Nublar, but as none were seen being taken to Lockwood Manor, it was assumed that the species had fallen back into extinction.[1]
However, its name appears on the Arcadia's mainfest list, implying that at least one Pachyrhinosaurus and possibly others of its kind were captured offscreen, and may have also escaped, or had been sold off.[2]

Now since March 8th, 2018, it could be won in a Pachyrhinosaurus tournament.
