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.

Notes

General Notes
  • Its head, back, and wings (individual) can be broken, and its tail severed.
  • Rathalos' roar is Strong. Level 5 Earplugs nullifies it.
    • In Rise, Rathalos' roar is Weak. Level 2 Earplugs / Level 1 Defiance nullifies it.
  • Rathalos is the flagship monster for the original Monster Hunter, Monster Hunter Freedom, some spinoffs like Monster Hunter Now, and for the entire franchise.
  • Rathalos has appeared in every game in the series (save for some minor spinoffs), alongside Rathian, Kelbi and the Felynes.
  • Rathalos received a modern redesign in Monster Hunter 3 that remains current for all future titles. The same is true for its relatives such as Azure Rathalos and Rathian.
  • Rathalos, Lagiacrus, and Estrellian are the only flagships to have area themes play rather than unique themes. However, Rathalos is often associated with his debut location (and its theme), Forest and Hills.
    • Monster Hunter Online is exempt from this, where Forest and Hills music always plays for Rathalos, Azure Rathalos, and Silver Rathalos.
  • Rathalos ranked 21st place in the Top Monster competition during Monster Hunter's 20th Anniversary, just short of the congratulated top 20.[7]
Monster Hunter World: Iceborne
  • Rathalos appears in Nargacuga's and Zinogre's intros.
    • Monster Hunter Rise
  • Rathalos can appear in the Rampage, where it is considered a Targetter.
  • Rathalos gains an attack where he breathes a wall of flames while flying forward.
  • To strike airborne targets, Rathalos can shoot fireballs upwards diagonally. He will also fly and ascend to his target's altitude to attack further with fireballs.
  • Rathalos first appeared in the second Rise trailer, "The Game Awards 2020 Trailer." He appears in a Rampage cutscene that was never released to the actual game.
    • Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak
  • Rathalos appears in Malzeno's intro.
    • Monster Hunter Stories 2
  • Breaking Rathalos' wings while its flying will Down him for the current turn and next turn.
  • Like most flying monsters, Rathalos is eligible for Air Showdown duels.
    • Also like some flying monsters, Rathalos can be grounded with a Flash Bomb while flying, Downing him for the rest of the turn. (Immune while Enraged Flying)
  • Rathalos and its eggs are only found after the final boss is defeated, since it preys on Rathalos and made its local population go missing.
  • While most monsters have minor color changes from elemental mutation, a Dragon-mutated Rathalos has severely darker crimson scales. (Easier seen at level 1)
    • Miscellaneous
  • Rathalos is a boss in Monster Hunter Puzzles: Felyne Isles. He will set a couple of spaces on fire, and matching next to them will extinguish them.
    • Rathalos also appears as the 2nd tutorial level, to introduce bosses.
