(Some of the dates listed for the games are later than the release dates. The series has always had a futuristic feel, so logic’s been prioritised over canon/the real-world timeline.)
(Spoilers for everything. This timeline is a constant WIP, developing as this blog’s world gain depth — hence, expect it to get reblogged sporadically with things that have been missed.)

July 23, 1977 – P. A. Leon born in Jacksonville, Florida.
April 1979 – Richmond’s Inc. begins mass-producing dino medals. Fossil fighting takes the world by storm.
Late August 1979 – Joe ‘Wild West’ Varèse and Nevada Montecarlo meet at university in Portland, hitting it off immediately over a love of vivosaurs and adventure. She’s the one who gives him the nickname (honouring his outlandishness and overly idealistic, zany stance on life) that he’ll come to adopt less than a year later as his legal name.
April 29, 1980 – Karl Kowloon born in Melbourne, Australia.
June 21, 1980 – Joseph Lully Varèse legally changes his name to Joe Wildwest in revolt against his parochial upbringing. It sticks.

They cannot stop talking - later, she ends up interviewing him several times on and off-camera before he returns to America. Over the next couple of years, he returns to New Zealand whenever he has a holiday - initially because of liking the nation, but later after ending up in a relationship with her.

July 2, 1989 – Terry Eno born in Hilo, Hawaii. His family migrates to Cranial City three years after his birth.
September 3, 1989 – Richmond Inc. creates the first KL robot, KL-10N. It’s surprisingly successful, prompting a new line of KL-2 robots running from KL-20N to KL-2XN. KL-26N, one of the most widely used models, becomes a 90s icon of fossil digging.
May 12, 1990 – Lester Hamilton born in Ribular Town, Caliosteo.
August 1990 – Kimmy Richmond moves to Cambridge for postgraduate research. There, she meets Marcus Harrison. The two start dating six months after they first crash into one another on campus.
February 29, 1993 – Marcus Harrison founds FossilDig (read as: Marcus Harrison has his first and favourite child with Kimmy Richmond). Three days later, he moves into Kimmy Richmond’s Cambridge home. Though it’s his company, she’s the creative brain behind it all. He simply does the negotiating.
March 1994 – Having been dating Joe for a bit over 7 years, Leanna Campbell moves to America to live with him. (After Joe’s brother moves to Portland for work, the not-entirely-young couple immediately flee to New York City. Joe doesn’t like his family. Leanna downright hates them.)
January 2, 1996 – Lola Jay born in Ribular Town, Caliosteo.
June 8, 1996 – Tria Zhěng born in Chóngqìng, Sìchuān.
May 17, 1997 – Leanna and Joe marry in a quiet ceremony in Christchurch (read as: the media speculate as to where the hell he’s gone for four weeks, only to see him return with a wedding ring. Nobody, of course, cares about his wife.)
Late February 1998 – Following a tumultuous relationship with Stryker in grade 11, Karl Kowloon disappears. His parents have no clue where he’s gone, but rumours abound stating that he snuck onto a plane to America. (Stryker doesn’t put it past him.) At the beginning of March, the Blackraven Brigade begins operations.
May 30, 1998 – Rosie Richmond born on Vivosaur Island.
December 19, 1998 – Dino (real name Daniel, but nobody except Rupert calls him that) born to Leanna and Joe Wildwest in New York City.

July 15, 2002 – Bartholomew Bullwort retrieves the Richmonds’ bodies, risking life and limb in the process. He is commended for his valour and promoted to head of the Vivosaur Island police, but his already-tenuous relationship with Richmond sours beyond repair.
September 7, 2002 – Bartholomew Bullwort establishes the BB Bandits.
August 2003 – FossilDig produces the first Dino Gears and Support Shots. Though mocked by the public, they garner mass attention and love from the wardens, who endorse them wholeheartedly.
September 3, 2004 – on the 15th anniversary of KL-10N’s release, Richmond Inc. put the KL-3 line onto the market. KL-33N hits stores two years later. It’s even more beloved than KL-26N, as its quirky personality endears it to many a fighter. (KL-34N was made for Vivosaur Island exclusively.)
October 2005 – First wave of dinaurians begin to emerge from stone sleep, shocked to see the earth’s supposed degeneration.
January 2008 – FossilDig Inc. purchases the KL robots’ trademark. Mass outrage results - for whilst the new models are better, they lack the quirky personality that the originals were so beloved for. Richmond Inc. and FossilDig become increasingly competitive with one another; the former suffers immensely, having fared worse during the GFC. FossilDig is immortalised as the dominant company in fossil fighting production - this burgeoning monopoly is both criticised and accepted.
January 15, 2008 – Dina moves to Sydney with her father for the sake of attending a music-focused school, ending up next-door neighbours with Todd. The two grow immensely close over the next two years.
July 2, 2010 – Dina withdraws from her music school after a year of bullying from another student. Her uncle – Stryker – knowing she’s feeling miserable, permits her and Todd to use to World Gate to travel to America for the holidays. There, they meet Joe Wildwest in the fateful encounter that would give Dina the drive to pick herself up and become a fossil fighter.
November 2010 – Stryker thwarts Blackraven Brigade’s initial attempt at world domination.
December 18, 2010 – Having been ostracised and isolated for his poor behaviour, Dina’s bully is asked to leave the music school. Over the summer break, he begins to feel some remorse that imbues him with a need to help and save the women he meets later (rather than hurt them), and resolves to become a fossil fighter, abandoning music for something completely different. The bully? Hunter. The women he grows fond of after his treatment of Dina? Rosie and Duna.
October 2011-December 2012 – Hunter travels to Vivosaur Island. Fossil Fighters takes place.
November 20, 2012 – Joe Wildwest purchases the Caliosteo islands.
December 3, 2012 – Stryker promoted to Captain of the wardens.
February 12, 2013 – Joe possessed by ZongaZonga.
March 8, 2015 – Caliosteo Cup begins.
August 24, 2015 – Dina Stryker defeats Rupert Harrison in the finale of the Caliosteo Cup. Hell ensues over the following five months as ZongaZonga attempts to possess Dina, the Cup is revealed as a body-stealing scheme, and the BB Brigade are pardoned.
March 2015- August 2017 – Frontier takes place.
June 30, 2016 – FossilDig signs a deal with Volkswagen and Hyundai, the two largest Bone Buggy manufacturers, allowing for even more mass production of support-shot equipped vehicles. The Fossil Parks’ profit increases substantially (read as: the Wardens go mad with the power).
October 14, 2017 – Mr. Richmond, at the age of 86, falls at home and breaks his hip. Though hospitalised at once, after ten days of care, he passes away. He is mourned widely, remembered for his magnanimity with great love.

Dryosaurus altus was a Jurassic plant eater that could be found in the forests and fern prairies of North America 150 million years ago. As a small dinosaur, measuring about 10 feet long, this dinosaur’s best defense against predators was its speed.
