I said ACT LIKE as in similar... And if he evolved that ability don't you think he would evolve some sort of skin that would RESIST the explosions. And when he's in his 2nd rage mode the particles fly out when he either a)roars or b) uses a claw attack, so it would make sense that some of his powdered claws would stick to his forearms.

And yes massive amounts of oxygen would make sense with all of the megafauna running around.
