- His head, back, and wings (individual) can be broken, and his tail severed.
- Rathalos is the flagship monster for the entire series.
- 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.
- All species of the Rathalos/Rathian race also gained a new roar in Monster Hunter: World. Only in some spinoffs such as Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin are their old roars reused.
- Rathalos has appeared in many franchise crossovers:
- As a special boss in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, Final Fantasy XIV, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
- As a playable entity in TEPPEN, Dragalia Lost, Puzzle & Dragons and Arknights.
- 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.

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 disorienting 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. 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. |

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. |
