In-Game Information
"Personality variants Tigrex are fairly violent and aggressive. the Tigrex's developed using a limb, claws and jaws to deal powerful blow to all its adversarys, which must be noted that the Tigrex is the greatest danger to all hunters"
Taxonomy
The Black Tigrex is a Pseudowyvern. It has few differences with the normal variation, other than coloration and habitat. Some of it's differences include its habitat of preference, hunting in volcanoes, which has a significant difference from the original Tigrex who hunts in the Snowy Mountains, despite both species inhabiting in the Sandy Plains. This subspecies of Tigrex boasts more powerful and more swift attacks and also the ability to cause Fireblight, and also has an improved version of a normal Tigrex's "wail".
Habitat Range
This dark-colored wyvern is found exclusively in volcanic areas, which would imply that the Black Tigrex is better suited to much hotter environments than the normal Tigrex. It has also adapted its pattern of attacks to better utilise its surroundings, like its thrust, which will send waves of magma which causes fireblight, or either use strata from the volcanic grounds as hurling stones. Seeing as how it charges straight into the lava, it is also considered in theory that its scales can adapt to be immune to lava.
Ecological Niche
Black Tigrex's role as top predator is no different than that of Tigrex. Its only known competitors include Agnaktor and Rathalos. A fully-grown Uragaan may also present a threat to a Black Tigrex, although a confrontation between the two would seem unlikely, due to the no competition between them. Unlike the Tigrex, Black Tigrex doesn't seem to travel to temperate areas to prey on Popo, so it definitely needs to make the most of all prey at the volcano. It may hunt Rhenoplos, Rangurotora, Zuwaroposu, Uroktor, immature Uragaan, and the Furogi and Dosufurogi that live in the lower levels of the Volcano. It is quite territorial, attacking anything that it has set in sight its boundary, especially hunters.
Biological Adaptations
Just as Tigrex has coloration suited to both tropical sandy deserts and freezing snowy landscape, the Black Tigrex has just the right coloration to blend in with the Volcano's cliffs and crevices. The possible reason for its black coloration may be the huge amount of ash scattered in the Volcano.
Much like normal Tigrex, these Wyverns are powerful in every sense of the word. Unlike normal Tigrex, Black Tigrex is not as commonly found in a range of areas. most commonly being found in the Volcano.
Behavior
Black Tigrex appear much more aggressive and more maniacal in attacking in comparison to Tigrex.
Being Extremely aggresive, it will even challenge and "kill" a rathalos if confronted or challenged for territory. It will fiercely attack hunters on sight. It is also quite stubborn, recklessly attacking like a stampede, even when its extremely wounded by its foe. It would appear that it is more intelligent in attacking than its normal counterpart, making it quite a challenge to hunters. Finally, it attacks in such a way that is very ruthless and unmerciful, some might not even get an opening to strike when damaged by a Black Tigrex.
