User blog:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Black Diablos (5th Gen)

Hello, and welcome to Monster Appreciation Week!

This week we look at the Horny Diablos, Black Diablos!



Interesting Facts About Black Diablos

 * Black Diablos is a female Diablos during the breeding season, not an actual subspecies. The black color is used as a warning to other creatures, telling them to give her space, while Black Diablos is gravid or has recently laid eggs.
 * Black Diablos is classified as a subspecies because she is stronger, tougher, and more aggressive than a normal Diablos during the breeding season.
 * She is sometimes called the Black Horned Wyvern (Japanese 黒角竜), or even the Reaper (Japanese 死神).
 * During the breeding season, Diablos will form mating pairs consisting of a male and female. Both individuals will share the same territory, but will not care for each other or stay close to each other, which is very different from the Raths.
 * Female Diablos are larger than male Diablos.
 * Hunting a Black Diablos is considered to be a death sentence for hunters. Most hunters, even the most skilled ones, have been killed by a Black Diablos.
 * The composition of Black Diablos's shell is different from normal Diablos, making it more damage-resistant.
 * The increased hardness of the horns make them more potent than a normal Diablos's.
