Deviljho is a Brute Wyvern introduced in Monster Hunter 3.

Physiology

Deviljho is a very large, bipedal Brute Wyvern characterized by its uniform forest green coloration and muscular upper body. Its thick hide is littered with short, jagged spines that reach a maximum height along the back and tail. Deviljho has a narrow snout with a large lower jaw, covered in multiple rows of teeth spreading outwards from the mouth. It has massive, powerful hind legs, but tiny, poorly developed forelegs that it rarely utilizes. When enraged, Deviljho's back and shoulder muscles swell considerably revealing scars. During this period, areas of its skin will take on a bright red coloration.

Abilities

Deviljho is endowed with extremely developed musculature that grants it unparalleled physical strength and stamina. Of note are its powerful jaws, assisted by sheer muscular strength, which can deliver bone-crunching bites to potential targets, and can also pick up and throw large objects or even prey. In addition, its powerful hind legs allow it to run at relatively high speed and leap considerable distances towards prey, and a combination of both powerful neck muscles & a durable skull allow it to use its head as a mace/a battering weapon against its enemies. When enraged, Deviljho is capable of producing a mysterious clouded emission that can be shot out of the mouth in a stream at prey. This substance contains the Dragon Element and can be very deadly to hunters as well as other monsters.

Behavior

Deviljho is a nomadic monster, prone to wandering vast distances in search of prey. Its status as a super-predator allows it to overtake the territory of any monster that stands in its path. Because of its extreme metabolism and equally extreme need for sustenance to survive, Deviljho is always in search of food sources, and will attempt to kill and eat anything on sight. It is known to be cannibalistic and is also prone to eating prey alive in order to waste as little time as possible in replenishing its energy.

Habitat

Because of its nomadic nature, Deviljho is known to inhabit a wide variety of environments, such as Tundra, Deserted Island, and Volcano, and has even been seen as far as the New World. Because of its immense appetite, its presence is often disruptive to the natural ecosystem, to the point of causing localized extinction events.

Monster Hunter Online 分类 兽龙种。 生境范围 恐暴龙在远离古龙生存区域以外的任何环境都有过目击报告，为了寻找新的猎物，恐暴龙会在各地漫游，被称作生态中的流浪汉。 特殊的身体构造使得他们能够在任何极端环境下生存，但却很少在一个区域内长期停留。这主要是由于他们贪食的特性，能够在短时间内轻易的摧毁一个地区的生态系统。 生态位 恐暴龙被冠以“超级掠食者”这一称号，除了飞龙、古龙和同类之外，都鲜有生态上的竞争对手。他们身体上看起来有不少似乎愈合了很久的各种大小伤痕，这应该是他们与其他各种强大的生物战斗过的证明。很大程度上与之战斗的其它动物们都是以捍卫自己的领地为目的。相比之下，恐暴龙明显更喜欢那些毫无反抗之力的草食动物。 恐暴龙既是强大的肉食动物，也是饕餮的食腐动物。恐暴龙的代谢速度很快，很容易进入饥饿状态，他们不会放过任何一个免费进餐的机会，正因如此他们才会吃各种怪物的遗体，甚至连同类也不放过。恐暴龙吞噬自己被切下来的尾部和捕食同类的目击记录屡有发生，这证明了恐暴龙是同类相食的生物。 适应性 恐暴龙被赋予的结实且强健的肌肉使得他们往往以压倒性的实力获取猎物。恐暴龙的嘴中布满一排一排参差不齐的利齿，当这些碎齿磨损或蹭掉后很快就会被新生的牙齿所替换。这使得这种野兽不论在何时都能轻易地从食物上撕下肉来。 分布在面部两侧眼睛体积很小，这说明恐暴龙不具有优越的视野，但依然可以从其它发达的感官如嗅觉得到很好的弥补。奇特的吐息攻击是从他们的口中呼出的一种神秘能量，仿佛疫病一般让猎人在短时间内不能有力地发出攻击。一旦恐暴龙被激怒，几乎所有的肌肉都会快速膨胀起来，而他们也因此变得更快、更强。随着身体的隆起，身上的伤疤在皮肤的外膜上随处可见。 行为 恐暴龙具有极高的侵略性，他们会吞食任何可能可以填入自己的嘴巴的东西，并顽固地与遇到的威胁战斗。 由于同类相食存在，恐暴龙的幼年体时刻面临着各种大型动物包括其它成熟的恐暴龙的威胁。尽管对于幼年体来说相当残酷，但是同样也保证了整个种群的质量，只有更强壮的后代才有更大的机会存活下来并成长至成熟体。 Threat Level (危険度): !!!!!!!

General Notes

• Deviljho usually prey on Aptonoth, Popo, Slagtoth, or Gargwa to recover stamina.
  • It sometimes eats from the corpse of slain monsters, already captured and resting monsters. It sometimes attacks other monsters in the area if it's hungry; thus, dealing damage to them.
  • Deviljho's ability to feed on its own severed tail has been a popular belief within the community ever since its debut in Monster Hunter 3. However, despite Deviljho's appearance in several Monster Hunter titles, no undoctored evidence of this behavior exists.
• Deviljho has the unofficial nickname “Pickle,” both in-game and off, because its body shape, massive size, and green coloration give it the slight look of a pickle.
• Deviljho's roar requires HG Earplugs to block.
• Like many other monsters, such as the Nargacuga, Zinogre, and Lagiacrus, the Deviljho enters a rage state. Its main body becomes enlarged with red streaks over the top of its back, near its mouth, and many tiny red marks all over. It begins breathing Dragon lightning around its mouth. This will not hurt you, but it will do its signature Dragon Breath attack at least twice until it calms down.
• Deviljho can leap at a hunter and pin them down, before attempting to devour them. Each bite will cause a significant amount of damage until the player is able to break free or throw a Dung Bomb. Another hunter who is not pinned can throw a dung bomb for the same effect. If the Deviljho is exhausted, it will recover stamina and inflict Defense Down on the pinned Hunter due to its corrosive saliva. [1]
• Deviljho performs a Dragon Breath attack at a 180-degree angle sweep from right to left. The only safe spots during this attack are, near its tail or underneath Deviljho. If a player finds itself within the range of the breath, the best options are to block with a shield, or panic dive away. It is possible to evade this attack by rolling but it's unsafe to do so unless the timing is spot-on. The Dragon Breath attack has extended reach from 30 m/129 ft up to 35 m/140 ft.
• Many of Deviljho's movements include damaging the players via the swing of its tail. When the tail is severed, it would stumble away from it because of the massive weight loss, causing it to lose balance.
• Its rock-flinging attack may reach up to 40 m/148 ft maximum range (in-game range calculation).
• Even though Deviljho can cause great damage to the ecosystem, it is not an Elder Dragon.
• Deviljho's Rock Fling attack will inflict different Blights depending on the area. In Tundra, it inflicts Iceblight, in Volcano it inflicts Fireblight, and in Flooded Forest it inflicts Waterblight.
  • Deviljho is capable of throwing rocks from land and hitting hunters in the water in the Flooded Forest, including hunters under the surface.
• Deviljho was voted 40th place in the Hunters' Choice for Top Monster during Monster Hunter's 20th Anniversary.

Monster Hunter 3

When fought in the Tundra, Deviljho will limp away to Area 1 and break into a hidden area to rest. The unlocked area is one of the few places where Dragonbone Relics can be gathered.

• If Deviljho is not weakened and is in Area 1, the blockade can still be broken down if Deviljho attacks it. If Deviljho breaks the blockade on its own, without the hunter baiting it into attacking the rubble, it drops a shiny.

If Deviljho uses a 'Stomp' Attack in Area 7 of the Tundra, icicles will fall from the ceiling causing minor damage to anyone they hit.

There was an event quest, where an extremely large Deviljho (called a "World Eater") was in the Deserted Island. Because of its size, weapons can barely reach its underside.

Deviljho can no longer be hunted in Monster Hunter 3 because the online servers have been shut down.

Monster Hunter Portable 3rd

Deviljho has a new attack where it quickly swings its tail first to its right, then around itself to its front while slightly moving forward during the attack. Because of its swift speed compared to the rest of Deviljho's attacks, it can be tricky to avoid if it catches hunters off-guard. The best way to avoid this attack is to quickly get underneath Deviljho.

Its Dragon Breath no longer inflicts Dragonblight because the Dragonblight status ailment has been removed in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. The Dragonblight effect returns in later games.

Deviljho can now be fought in the very last village quest. It will appear in the Land Arena (with its own introduction cutscene), and after it has been slain or captured, Tigrex and Nargacuga will be fought simultaneously. Despite being met in a Low-Rank Quest, the three monsters are as powerful as their High-Rank equivalents much like the final Village Quest Monster Hunter in Monster Hunter Freedom Unite where monsters were G-Rank.

Like Duramboros, it may counter-attack the hunter immediately after it staggers, like when its face has been broken.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate

There is an event quest, in which the hunter must defeat a Deviljho without any piece of armor.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

Deviljho can now climb with its mouth.

In G-Rank, it throws bigger boulders, and is able to perform a new attack where it lifts its upper body and walks around, then blasts its Dragon Breath upwards.

Deviljho can be affected by the Frenzy Virus and the Apex status.

• Apex Deviljho's weak spots are its belly, back, legs, and tail tip. Attacking any other part without the Drive Wystone will cause the weapon to bounce.
• Apex Deviljho uses G Rank Savage Deviljho's moveset.
• Apex Deviljho creates an earthquake aimed at the hunter when it stomps.
• Apex Deviljho's dragon breath can inflict Defense Down on top of Dragonblight.

Monster Hunter Generations

Hyper Deviljho is DLC-exclusive in Monster Hunter Generations, while in Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate it appears in the Hub quests.

Deviljho is capable of using the Dragon Breath attack when exhausted or in its normal state, though this is a rare occurrence.

Monster Hunter: World

Deviljho's chest can be wounded.

For Title Update 1, Deviljho was permanently added to the game on March 22, 2018 (UTC).

Deviljho will appear as an intruder in High-Rank quests and expeditions upon completing the ??? Rathian investigation quest.

Deviljho can grab smaller large monsters like Great Jagras, Kulu-Ya-Ku, Tobi-Kadachi, Tzitzi-Ya-Ku, and Dodogama in its mouth and use them as bludgeons. It can even grab Odogaron with minimal effort. It can also throw them directly at the player for a considerable amount of damage.

• Deviljho and Savage Deviljho are some of the only monsters to be able to slay another large monster, as throwing the large monster at a player can potentially bring said large monster’s health to 0.
  • The only other monster capable of this is Thunder Serpent Narwa.

Deviljho can still attack while caught in a Pitfall Trap, being able to slam its torso down and in some instances breathe dragonblight.

Deviljho displays turf wars with most "apex" monsters (Rathalos, Legiana, Diablos, Bazelgeuse) while exhibiting normal combat with "mid-tier" monsters, such as Anjanath, Rathian, Radobaan, etc.

• Though both monsters are available at High Rank, Deviljho does not have turf wars with subspecies like Azure Rathalos and Black Diablos.

Deviljho shares a pin attack with Anjanath, but with the inclusion of causing Defense Down as well as increased overall damage.

Unlike previous games, Deviljho no longer has black eyes, and instead has yellow eyes that will gradually change color to red depending on its rage mode.

• It also has 2 "cheeks" on its upper mouth.

Deviljho may launch a counterattack after being staggered. If hit during this counterattack, it will be left in a vulnerable state for an extended period of time and its Dragon powers will be doused off. The Deviljho will still remain in rage mode, albeit unable to use its Dragon breath, and thus the Agitator skill can still remain active even after a successful attempt to exploit this weakness.

Tempered Deviljho is exclusive to the "Relish the Moment" event quest.

Deviljho is replaced by its variant Savage Deviljho in Master Rank.

• A singular regular Deviljho will appear in the quest Return of the Crazy One; however, after the cutscene has played, it will immediately leave the area.

Monster Hunter Explore

Due to the absence of the Dragon Element in Explore, Deviljho is from the water element instead.

• But, it still uses dragon breath attacks during a battle.

Monster Hunter Now

Deviljho was added in Monster Hunter Now's second Major update: The Vernal Invader

Deviljho is the fourth monster to be present in all three habitats

Deviljho is the first monster added to use the dragon element

Deviljho only has a chance of invading when the following monsters are selected in a volatile territory: 5 star and above Great Jagras, Kulu-Ya-Ku, and Pukei-Pukei

• All three of the aforementioned monsters are also present in all three habitats
• The difficulty of the invading Deviljho is determined by the star tier of the monster it replaces

The music that plays when battling Deviljho is Savage Intruder - Deviljho from MHP3rd

Monster Hunter Stories 2

Deviljho is a Power type monster.

• Opposing Deviljhos turn to Speed attacks when enraged.

Like Bazelgeuse, it will randomly invade on battles with a WARNING interruption (after Hakolo Island turns awry).

Defeating it with a Dragon element attack while it is poisoned will greatly boost its retreat rate.

Monster Hunter Stories 3

It uses its Gen 5 design.
