Burn Dinorex (バーン・ディノレックス), also known as Mattrex, is a Maverick from the X era, appearing as one of the main bosses in Mega Man X5.

In the Games

Mega Man X5

Sprite from Mega Man X5.

Burn Dinorex debuts in Mega Man X5 as one of the eight Mavericks on the Stage Select screen. He is an illegal weapons manufacturer who owns the Booster Engine needed for the Space Shuttle. His attacks are deceptively fast for his large size, and he can cover the screen in fire attacks. Defeating Burn Dinorex grants Ground Fire to X and Quake Blazer to Zero. His weakness is the Wing Spiral or W-Shredder from Spiral Pegasus, which briefly stuns him in a tornado. A boss attack rematch with Burn Dinorex later occurs in Zero Space Stage 4: Birth.
