Sheldon's Introduction
"This beauty is the Tempered Dynamo Roller. It simply oozes style! Check out the sweet burnt effect.
The addition of Seekers has really improved this set's manoeuvrability and ability to pressure the front lines.
When you've got 'em on the back foot, BAM! Killer Wail! This set suits battlers who like to pile on the pressure!

Etymology
Tempered Dynamo Roller is derived from Dynamo and Roller, plus the word Tempered. Dynamo is a type of an electrical generator, which the Tempered Dynamo Roller seems partly based on. Tempered refers to tempering, a process in metallurgy that is used to increase the toughness of iron-based alloys, explaining the hue of the metal.
ダイナモローラーバーンド Dainamo Rōrā Bāndo means Dynamo Roller Burned. Burned refers to the fact that it is a Dynamo Roller that has been burnt to be tempered.
