The Fire Wyvern '''Rathalos''' (リオレウス, ''rioreusu'') is a [[Flying Wyvern]] introduced in the original [[Monster Hunter]].
 
__TOC__
 
==Physiology and Abilities==
Rathalos are large flying wyverns characterized by their red shells adorned with black markings. Their large wings possess a strong membrane with fiery dark marks coming from the wing arm. The tail-tip is noticeably wider than the rest of the tail, and is used as a club.
 
The talons of a Rathalos can secrete a powerful toxin capable of poisoning large animals, while their developed flame sac allows them to spit large fireballs.
 
Rathalos are the male part of a [[Sexual Dimorphism|sexually dimorphic]] species, and are often seen alongside their female counterpart, [[Rathian]].
 
Rathalos is affected by [[Regional Variation]], where individuals within the same species look slightly different based on where they live. The Rathalos seen near [[Minegarde]] and [[Dundorma]] (=those seen in the games from [[Monster Hunter]] to [[Monster Hunter Freedom Unite]]) are quite thin, with long necks and wider maws. The Rathalos found near [[Moga]], [[Val Habar]], the [[New World]] and [[Kamura]] (those seen in the games from [[Monster Hunter 3]] onwards) are much bulkier by comparison, and have stronger legs.<ref>Monster Hunter World: The Official Complete Works, pg. 280</ref><ref>Hunter's Encyclopedia 3, pg. 48</ref>

==Description==
{{MonsterDescription
|Description='''Characteristics:''' A fearsome flying wyvern who has earned the moniker "King of the Skies."<br/>Together with its female counterpart, it forms its territory around their nest, keeping close watch from above.<br/>With its powerful wings, it swiftly descends to intercept any trespassers, assailing them with its mighty, poisonous claws.<br/>In addition, it is well known for its ability to breathe fire.
 
'''Useful Information:''' As implied by its title of "King of the Skies," this monster is capable of taking flight, whereupon it will attack from above with its flame breath.<br/>By targeting its wings, or severing its tail, you may be able to force it to descend to the ground.
 
'''Habitat''': Forest

{{MonsterDescription
|Description=Terrible wyverns called "Kings of the Skies." Along with Rathian, they stake wide territories centered around their nest. Rathalos descend on invaders from the sky, attacking with poison claws and a breath of fire.<br/>'''Threat Level: ★★★★★★'''<br/>The King of the Skies lives up to its name by staying airborne for most of its attacks. A well-aimed '''Flash Bomb can help to bring a Rathalos down to earth, however.'''

The Fire Wyvern Rathalos (リオレウス, rioreusu) is a Flying Wyvern introduced in the original Monster Hunter.

Physiology and Abilities

Rathalos are large flying wyverns characterized by their red shells adorned with black markings. Their large wings possess a strong membrane with fiery dark marks coming from the wing arm. The tail-tip is noticeably wider than the rest of the tail, and is used as a club.

The talons of a Rathalos can secrete a powerful toxin capable of poisoning large animals, while their developed flame sac allows them to spit large fireballs.

Rathalos are the male part of a sexually dimorphic species, and are often seen alongside their female counterpart, Rathian.

Rathalos is affected by Regional Variation, where individuals within the same species look slightly different based on where they live. The Rathalos seen near Minegarde and Dundorma (=those seen in the games from Monster Hunter to Monster Hunter Freedom Unite) are quite thin, with long necks and wider maws. The Rathalos found near Moga, Val Habar, the New World and Kamura (those seen in the games from Monster Hunter 3 onwards) are much bulkier by comparison, and have stronger legs.[1][2]



Description

Monster Hunter Now
Characteristics: A fearsome flying wyvern who has earned the moniker "King of the Skies."
Together with its female counterpart, it forms its territory around their nest, keeping close watch from above.
With its powerful wings, it swiftly descends to intercept any trespassers, assailing them with its mighty, poisonous claws.
In addition, it is well known for its ability to breathe fire.

Useful Information: As implied by its title of "King of the Skies," this monster is capable of taking flight, whereupon it will attack from above with its flame breath.
By targeting its wings, or severing its tail, you may be able to force it to descend to the ground.

Habitat: Forest

Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak
Terrible wyverns called "Kings of the Skies." Along with Rathian, they stake wide territories centered around their nest. Rathalos descend on invaders from the sky, attacking with poison claws and a breath of fire.
Threat Level: ★★★★★★
The King of the Skies lives up to its name by staying airborne for most of its attacks. A well-aimed Flash Bomb can help to bring a Rathalos down to earth, however.
Monster Hunter
Male wyvern that keeps a nest and patrols its territory from the air in search of prey. Its claws are filled with poison that weakens its prey.
