Dragon Quest VIII

Near Farebury, there is a recruitable Hacksaurus for the Monster Arena. After being defeated for the first time, it drops a Silver Medal. It is a pretty strong unit, with good stats overall, very strong early game and still usable late game. His attacks include: basic attack, Falcon Slash and a weak fire breath attack. It's one of the monsters whose stats scale with Hero's level.
