There's a reason that it's not good to have every monster in every game and that is fatigue. People get sick of fighting the same monster in every game, making the same weapons at the same points in the game's progression, so on and so forth. Rathalos, Rathian, Zin, Brachy, and Jho are all extremely overdue for a break.

There's also that not everyone likes every monster and continual appearance by a set of monsters someone hates is likely to drive them off. Even if the cycled monster is beloved, bringing it back generates hype. See: confirmation that narga/agna/amatsu/ala were included in mhx.

Also, why did anyone respond to this in the first place. Rathalos and Rathian are the big head honchos of the MH franchise, so the chances of them skipping out on a game are pretty much nil.

Agree with all the others, though.
