    One not-so-fun fact for Gigginox is that they have only appeared in the third generation of mainline Monster Hunter games and Monster Hunter Explore. I'd really like to see them again. The armor you craft from them is so cool!

    For those who are confused with the Khezu soundtrack thing, it's a joke. Khezu never had a soundtrack but we like to joke about it, calling it crisp, minimalistic, or the perfect alarm tone etc.

      Additionally, fight music usually begins when a monster sees you. And Khezu, being blind, never does.

    One fun fact I found about about Shrieking Legiana is that if you poison the monster there will be a time in wich he will stop attaking and will vomit the poison, giving you an opotunity to deal more damage.

    I think they're 100% right on keeping Akantor and Ukanlos as flying wyverns as it makes a lot of sense ecologically

    • @NipplesTheEnchilada2323
      @NipplesTheEnchilada2323 8 годин тому +2

      Plus, the fact that they do have "wings" but they are non-functional, due to the size of said wings.
      So, evolutionarily speaking, they are "flying wyverns" just not in the sense that they can fly.

    Another fun fact about basarios: In 4u there was a glitch you could perform by toppling basarios and then ko it while it was still down. This created an invisible, but infinite mining spot near it's back. And you'd get different ores from it depending on what rank you fought basarios in.

    Personally I think Akantor and Ukanlos could be reclassified as Fanged Wyverns. As they seem to share a lot of anatomy with Zinogre and Magnamalo.
    In their general standing position their wrists are positioned bellow or sometimes even behind their shoulders. Their elbows are usually at or bellow their shoulders. They posses heavily reduced wing fingers and as a result of the early traits have given them a more erect leg posture then Pseudo Flying Wyverns do. This results in them having far more anatomicly in common with Zinogre and Magnamalo then Pseudo Flying Wyverns such as Tigrex, Barioth and Nargacuga who would have otherwise been the monster with the closest anatomy.
    This information was mostly gained via comparing my own gameplay footage and looking at footage online, I may have made mistakes. I think this conclusion also makes sense as Fanged Wyverns were not in the games when Akantor and Ukanlos were first created.
    While yes they could have convergently evolved, I think this and reclassifying Black Diablos would be a nice opportunity to show that the Guild is interested in updating their taxonomy and classifications. Additionally putting Gigginox, Kezu and potentially Pukei Pukei(its digestive tract really looks like it is attached to its tail) in a new "Tail Gut Wyvern" or "Tail Wyvern" group would be nice.

    • @Viceur-xh4gz
      @Viceur-xh4gz 14 годин тому

      I doubt the guild will ever do something about it. The players are the real biologist, btw I disagree, I think akantor and ukanlos definitely seem like ancient pseudo flying wyvern, which has has a lot of time to get rid of the "wings". But, you can call whatever it doesn't matter.

    • @chito2701
      @chito2701 13 годин тому

      they should be reclassified to Fanged wyverns, even REMOBRA was reclassified to Snake wyvern because Najarala was the only Snake monster in the class.

  • @NipplesTheEnchilada2323
    @NipplesTheEnchilada2323 8 годин тому +2

    Bazelgeuse is named after the Red Supergiant Star Betelgeuse, which is a star located on the constellation of Orion.
    A thing about Supergiant Stars is that they are near end of life, and they go Supernova when they are at end of life, aka they blow up, which is fitting for a monster like Bazelgeuse who blows things up with its scales.

  • @kingofflames738
    @kingofflames738 19 годин тому +7

    Interestingly enough Akantor and Ukanlos split off before Wyvern Rex. If Wyvern Rex is truly the base ancestor of all flying wyverns, then that would make Akantor and Ukanlos not Flying Wyverns, but instead something completely unique. Ancient Wyverns or Basal Wyverns would be a more appropriate name.

    25:49 since they still have the bits of wing bones in their arms, thats probably why tho to quote the phrase "You can't evolve out of a clade." Is fittinging here. Really only thing about them is that they are big and dont have any supernatural like Abilities like the other elders

    4:32 MHtriU was my second Game after MHTri and even at that time i thought it was weired that Azur Rathalos was the Cover Art Monster. But i do think that the western Cover Art feels much more like MHTriU. Probably because the Brachydios Artwork is a strong contrast to the main themes and locations you spend 90% of the Game in.

  • @Leozaure
    @Leozaure 14 годин тому +1

    Another fun-fact about Khezu: the red ones are the regular specimens because they’re seen way more often than the white ones, which should technically be the subspecies because of their albinism

    • @xJamesx7890x
      @xJamesx7890x 5 годин тому

  • @viktorxviii302
    @viktorxviii302 20 годин тому +4

    Correct me if im wrong, but isnt Kezu also the actual Supspecies and the Red Kezu the "Main" monster. I once heard that the guild just found the white Kezu first and asumed he was the main monster and then they found red Kezu and said he is the supspecies but some time later realised that it is swapped but just sticked to the way it was?
    (PS. sry my english is by long sentences not the best but i think you know what i mean, maybe)

  • @ReedBariumfox
    @ReedBariumfox 13 годин тому

    I do like having Akantor and Ukanlos "missclassified", it gives a general feeling that at some point they had the ability to fly but their wings atrophied, but somehow still kept their classification. If there was another category to put them in besides Elder Dragon they would fit in as Fanged Wyverns, given theyre basically drakes and assume a general wyvern stance with the frontal legs instead of standing upright like a 6-limbed elder dragon.

  • @Madman6884
    @Madman6884 9 годин тому

    Two things I'll point out: Rathalos world tour is definitely not a Japan only thing, we used the same term in the west.
    And two, Odogaron aren't hunting those Legiana, they're scavengers. The Legi fall down into the vale dying of natural causes, you can even see em fall if you're in the right place at the right time.

    Khezu have no eyes so no theme in the fight. Same with Gore Magala when you remove the frenzy with mods or you walking near him when he can't see you if you not in the frenzy cloud.
    In MHGU and MHRS Gare can spot you like if he have eyes from wide distances which isn't like in MH4 and MH4G/MH4U. A battle theme in MH only plays when you got spotted by sight.

    About Tigrex pronunciation, in Spanish it is pronounced "Tee-gre" and "Tee-Rex", so the amalgamation "Tee-grex" sounds incredibly appropiate IMO, but maybe not so much for English speakers. I'm glad Capcom decided to rollback to the original pronunciation.

  • @Revonlieke
    @Revonlieke 8 годин тому

    Can't reclassify Akantor or Ukanlos, they both still have a stubby wing toes from their evolutionary trait, so there's a clear distinct reasoning why Capcom classified them as such. It was a design decision from the ground up for those. They also don't feel like Elder Dragons to me, they're just large. I guess one naming would be Ancient Wyverns which would be closely related to Extinct Species--- But yea, no need to reclassify due to the traits they still show.

  • @dima_keller
    @dima_keller 16 годин тому

    I'll probably sound dumb, but I was thinking that realistically it should be possible for monsters to have multiple subspecies and they don't necessarily have to be rare or something like that, so how do you you think they'd go about it considering every subspecies just called "ashu" in Jp? I'd guess the just won't, but it's pretty limiting imo as for example Barioth really deserves a good subspecies imo. Or they'll just push the changes further into a new species,, which is actually a great thing imo. Many people seem to not like the idea of it, but irl we have lots of different environments where specific niches are often filled with similar animals, so it'd make lots of sense to interchange some monsters like that between some areas or just games. For example Ludroth and Pokaradon are very similar monsters in lots of ways and could basically be versions of each other on different locals (not the best example, as Pokaradon has some very unique attacks, but I think it shows what I mean)
