User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Royal Ludroth (4th Gen)/@comment-7584137-20160812135321

Ah, the one and only Royal Ludroth. Every time I see this monster (alongside others from the 3rd Gen) it gives me some SERIOUS nostalgia, and I immediatly begin to remember my first battles against it, in the generation that got me completely hooked in MH. But even when I put that feeling aside, is this monster actually good?

Of course it is! Royal Ludroth is not only the easiest Leviathan to defeat, he may also be the most simplistic one in terms of design. But even then, he is still a very enjoyable monster. The concept of a big monster leading smaller ones isn´t new by any means, but Royal Ludroth just stands out, even if I do find him the most "simple" of the Leviathans. He is BIG. He has a very royal sponge. He may not look that threatening but everything about him just seems to work.

Also, no wonder that some people keep them as pets. They look huggable! Although, if they actually MAKE good pets at all is another question. Would you hug the sponge, even if you would risk loosing an arm or a leg?
