User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Coral Pukei-Pukei/@comment-35010436-20200203040151

Coral Birb.

Like seemingly most people, my favorite of the MR2 Sub Trio.

I really like the design, sells the out of the water Coral Reef life look quite well with the colors and patterns. And I like the color shift when it's mad, even if I think the yellow when it's calm looks better on it.

Fight is quite nice, good concept, and a lot of new tricks, if a little spammy sometimes... And it's nice to see another monster variation that goes a different route from the standard element swap or something. Not that that's bad, usually, but it's neat to see something like this once more (As a note though: That isn't exactly a new thing from World. Like the Watery standard Seltas duo becoming the Paralytic Desert's for example).

No real comment on the gear as usual, it was the go too Water Weapon Mon for awhile during my playthrough, but that's all I can say.

Overall, pretty good, I like it more than standard Pukei, who in my eyes, is pretty forgettable, kind of annoying classification aside.

Next week should be fun, and I mean in a good way, unlike what I was expecting from most of these for IB so far.
