Later, in 1996, the Street Sharks teamed up with the Dino Vengers and the show became "Dino Vengers Featuring Street Sharks". It was created to promote an existing Mattel toy line of the same name.

OVERALL PLOT:[]
The premise of the story states that university professor Dr. Robert Bolton and his partner Dr. Luther Paradigm created a machine, known as the "gene-slammer", capable of changing aquatic animals into anthropomorphic hybrids. Attempting to prevent Paradigm from using this machine for personal power, Bolton is transformed into an unseen monstrosity yet escapes. Later, Paradigm also gives Bolton's four sons John, Bobby, Coop, and Clint the likeness of four different sharks. When Dr. Paradigm captures their friend Bends, the resulting "Street Sharks" rescue him and combine Paradigm with piranha DNA, for which he is often nicknamed "Dr. Piranoid" by other characters. In subsequent episodes, Dr. Paradigm creates a variety of monsters to destroy the Street Sharks, while attempting to persuade the inhabitants of their native metropolis of Fission City to imprison them. Of these monsters, a few sided with the Sharks themselves namely 'Rox' (a musician and mako shark that is similar to the protagonists), 'Moby Lick' (based on an orca), Mantaman (a manta ray/alien hybrid), and 'El Swordo' (based on a swordfish)
The final few episodes introduced the Dino Vengers, a group of extraterrestrial dinosaurs allied with the Street Sharks against their own rivals in the Raptor Gang. The Dino Vengers had their own spinoff series called Extreme Dinosaurs.
