Tigrex

The Tigrex, first introduced in Monster Hunter Freedom 2, is a Flying Wyvern known for its highly agressive nature.



Physiology
They are visibly recognizable by the orangish-yellow skin with blue stripes.

Abilities
As pseudowyverns, their wings have evolved into forelegs, which makes them very fast, but they only fly when moving to another zone. When coming from a high area, they drop straight down, rather than slowly hovering down like most Wyverns. When they don't see the hunter, however, they may slowly hover down.

Behavior
Tigrex is an aggressive monster with a short fused attitude but high intelligence. They will even challenge other dominant predators in their native habitats.

Habitat
The Tigrex lives in the Desert and migrates to the Snowy Mountains to feast on Popo, which seems to be its preferred food.

Hard Core (HC) Tigrex


Season 9.0, Tigrex is considerably improved. It now has slightly enlarged horns and is missing one eye; it also has several new attacks, including: a tail-brush, where it wipes its tail in a 180 degree arc behind itself; a vastly improved roar, which covers a far greater area; a frenzied series of agile leaps; a double 360 degree body spin; and finally a triple forward bite.

HC Tigrex is an older dominant male with longer horn/ears, blue tinted wings and roaring power stronger than the Tigrex Subspecies, though it cannot hold a roar as long. It is known for fast unexpected movement, roars focused into an invisible sonic beam easy to spot from sand or snow being blown, an attack were it jumps left-smashes with its foot to the right then jumps ahead to the right and turns then runs back to face its target, double spin attacks like its subspecies and roars so loud the ground cracks beneath it and the air stills as a shock wave reaching beyond its body range.
