Silver Rathalos

Silver Rathalos is a Rare Species of the Rathalos introduced in Monster Hunter G.



Physiology
This rare subspecies features a shining silver carapace with black markings along the spine. He is slightly larger than the average Rathalos.

Abilities
He will frequently barrage hunters with his triple fireball and skyclaw attacks. When on ground, he tends to use far more tail whips than bites and will charge hunters less frequently. The Silver Rathalos also appears to go into a state of rage more often than his red or blue counterparts.

Behavior
The Silver Rathalos is much more dangerous than the common species. He prefers aerial attacks to ground-based ones.

Habitat
He is rarely found in Swamp, Old Swamp, or Forest and Hills, but can most often be seen at the top of ancient Towers. The Hunters Guild goes out searching for Silver Rathalos in other lands so they can be hunted in special events, where they're placed in Arena and pitted against Hunters.

Hardcore (HC) Silver Rathalos


HC Silver Rathalos has enlarged spikes running along its spine, as well as larger and slightly discolored wing claws. Its tail spikes have a faint reddish hue.

In terms of behavior, it can now shoot five fireballs in very rapid succession whilst on the ground, as well 'charge up' a larger, slow-moving blast of fire. This explosive attack is often followed up with more fireballs. In addition, Silver Rathalos can now fly around any Hunters in a large circle pattern, shooting fireballs at them as it soars. Before landing after this attack, it can produce another slow-moving but large ball of flame; it will then swoop through and trigger the fiery orb to explode.
