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.

A previous mutation of Rathalos (1 - Freedom Unite) bore many bodily differences, such as a slightly thinner body, an elongated neck, and an even longer tail. The common species of Rathalos (3 onwards) became more dominant and rendered these specimens recessive and thus extinct/in hiding. These biological patterns also applied to its subspecies, rare species, and other relatives before they've gone missing in favor of dominant gene changes as well.



Description

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.
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: ★★★★★★

Notes

General Notes
  • His head, back, and wings (individual) can be broken, and his tail severed.
  • Rathalos is the flagship monster for the entire series.
    • Rathalos has appeared in every single game in the series (save for some minor spinoffs), alongside Rathian, Kelbi and the Felynes.
  • Rathalos has appeared in many franchise crossovers:
  • 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.
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. He will also fly and ascend to his target's height to attack more.
  • 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.
