Dyuragaua is a Flying Wyvern introduced in Monster Hunter Frontier Season 8.0.

Physiology[]

Dyuragaua has the typical body structure of primarily-quadrupedal Flying Wyverns. Its hide is covered with cyan and turquoise scales, with deep orange ridges, spikes, claws and horns, its wing membranes are green. The head somewhat resembles that of a fox, with a mouth full of sharp teeth permanently bared, with a "mane" of sorts of red fur sprouting from the back of the head, with more fur of the same color on its underbelly. The tail culminates in a "club" covered in small spines, normally lowered.

Abilities[]

Dyuragaua primarily attack with claw swipes, spin attacks, and swinging their tails, but are also capable of releasing large waves of cold air as a breath attack and can also create freezing cold gusts with a swipe of their claws. Lastly they have an enraged attack where they flip forward and slam their tails down on the ground, releasing a gas cloud from the club which causes Sleep.

Behavior[]

Dyuragaua are highly territorial and ferocious when cornered but surprisingly wary of people unless confronted, this being the reason they aren't sighted very often. They have a notable rivalry with the Flying Wyverns Berukyurosu.

Habitat[]

Despite what their abilities would suggest Dyuragaua rarely venture into frigid areas like the Glacial Valley and more commonly are found in dryer and warmer areas like the Highland, Gorge, and the Nest Hole.

Other Non-Subspecies Forms[]

Hard Core (HC) Dyuragaua[]

Able to first be hunted at SR22.

HC Dyuragaua has more vibrant colors, larger claws, longer horns and longer spikes.

Its attacks are mostly Gou Dyuragaua attacks like triple beams, double twisters and combo attacks, now sped up, plus a new attack where it sticks its claws in the ground then scratch's across the ground dragging its claws making twisters spin off in a circle.

Another feature that make HC Dyuragaua unique is its ability to side step evade Flash Bombs much like a hunter can evade a flash from a Gypceros.

	分类飞龙种。生境范围仅在古塔巢穴和冰凌极地发现过冰狐龙的出现。生态位有着超高警戒心的冰狐龙，在过去一直未能确认它的行踪，在很长一段时间里，冰狐龙是被认为不存在的、虚构的生物，直到最近被一位英勇的年轻猎人发现，冰狐龙确切存在的事实才终于明朗。适应性冰狐龙的体质特殊，其周身散发着极寒冰气，这些冰气在冰狐龙兴奋之后会大量散出，甚至其体表温度也会掉至零下，看起来如同是冻结了一样，因此得名冰狐龙。冰狐龙虽是飞龙，但翅膀飞行能力退化，取而代之的是非常强健的四肢，冲击的力度不亚于轰龙。行为冰狐龙锐利的牙齿可以毫不费力的撕裂猎物，尖锐的爪削铁如泥，韧尾上满是强韧的棘刺，吐息中还挟带着极寒冰气，一旦被冻伤无法行动，猎人就成了它的盘中餐。

Monster Hunter Frontier

When a Dyuragaua jumps back with its tail in the air and postured with one arm ahead of it, it will wait for someone to attack it first to do a counter attack that causes KO making hunters fall on their knees.

Dyuragaua takes an extremely high amount of damage from Poison (720). At HR5 Gou (剛) this is doubled and becomes 1440. However, its resistance to Poison also skyrockets each time it is inflicted.

HC Dyuragaua's roar requires Super HG Earplugs to block.

An HR5 Dyuragaua is capable of a triple beam attack, triple ice tornadoes, a smash attack that knocks hunters into the air then ice blasting them mid air and freezing the ground beneath it with its breath as it jumps into the air, it then lands tail first breaking the ice layer it made hoping the chunks will hit hunters, bounces from the tail landing then lands on all fours. It should also be noted that HC Dyuragaua is capable of these attacks at any rank.

In MHFG G rank Dyuragaua gets an upgrade to its ground freezing attack where it makes a pillar of ice instead of just freezing the ground and then breaks it, sending large chunks of ice in multiple directions until they hit something.

Monster Hunter Online

Instead of Frostbite, all of Dyuragaua's ice attacks inflict Iceblight.

Additionally, Dyuragaua's ice attacks will inflict Iceblight regardless of its enraged status.

In G2-Rank onwards, Dyuragaua gains the counter attack and ground smash attack its HR5 Frontier version utilizes.
