In-Game Description

Monster Hunter 4 青い甲殻に身を包んだイャンクックの亜種。 大きな音に弱い。 通常種と比べ身体能力が高く、一度怒るとその能力を発揮するため、イャンクックといえども油断はできない。 Threat Level (危険度): ★★★★ Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate A Yian Kut-Ku variant protected by a blue carapace. They share the same weakness to loud noises that ordinary Yian Kut-Ku have, but when angered, they display significantly greater physical strength. Threat Level (危険度): ★★★★ Monster Hunter Stories A Yian Kut-Ku subspecies. Their blue coloration and physical prowess set them apart from their pink kin. Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin A subspecies of Yian Kut-Ku. Their blue coloration and physical prowess set them apart from their pink kin. Unlike their cowardly cousins, they become increasingly dangerous when angered, and should not be underestimated. Monster Hunter Frontier G (?) Monster Hunter Online 分类 鸟龙种，大怪鸟亚种。 生境范围 森丘，与大怪鸟的生境范围重合。 生态位 通常认为青怪鸟是大怪鸟的老年体，但是近来也有学士认为青怪鸟是大怪鸟为了适应环境而产生的自我演化。不论如何，青怪鸟拥有比大怪鸟更强大的攻击欲望和破坏力已经是不争的事实。 适应性 青怪鸟听觉似乎也比大怪鸟更加敏锐，特别是对“节奏”有着异常的感受性。很多猎人都回报说，讨伐青怪鸟时发现青怪鸟因为周围地区的音乐节奏而进入亢奋状态，战斗力大幅提升并且对痛苦无所畏惧。 行为 青怪鸟相比大怪鸟更具攻击性，在与他战斗时，乱入的奇面族将会打断猎人的狩猎节奏。而更加频繁的攻击和快速的动作，都会让猎人陷入不利的境地。 Threat Level (危険度): !!!
