#fuck you tigrex

[sagefurry]

so me and two friends were deciding what monster hunter monsters would post on facebook

Rathalos: posts "I hate my wife" memes everyday and tries to recapture his lost glory, because he still thinks he runs the architectural company he made with his wife and is very self-centered about the fact he's still technically the face of the company, even though he chose to not go on with the times when his wife did, leading to him not helping the company at all nowadays and everyone just tolerating him so they can enjoy his wife's presence (and her flips)

Rathian: posts about her architectural achievements and is the kind of person that posts live laugh love posts unironically. nobody really knows why she still tolerates Rathalos, but she really thinks she can fix him and that there's something beautiful inside him that if she just tries, she can get through to his good parts. thinks all the "I hate my wife" memes are just jokes. really fun at parties

Zinogre: posts about going to the gym and pictures of him flexing everyday, is super into cars because he can power his electric cars by himself. he's also very big into entomology. will go on rants about the "cars" movies if you let him because he hates how unrealistic it is

Gammoth: doesn't post anything on her own facebook page and doesn't check what any of her friends are doing on it but but runs the lesbian monster community page

Tigrex: posts conservative far-right propaganda and the wildest conspiracy theories youve ever heard, and is also every type of -phobe you can think of. posts pictures of him that have sunglasses and really big jeeps badly photoshopped onto them

Mizutsune: posts almost exclusively about anything gay pride related and uses his page as a curated gay art gallery. dunks on tigrex's posts whenever he can. takes pictures of himself while hes taking a bubble bath and reposts bath bomb videos.

Glavenus: was an edgelord sword-lover when he was a kid and posted about swords and skulls and motorcycles n shit. he took a break from social media in his teens to become an apprentice blacksmith. now middle-aged and is an accomplished blacksmith that posts about his craft whenever he can. still also posts about swords a lot.

Astalos: uses his personal facebook page for curating like a music gallery for music he likes, of any genre. hes a beginner guitar player that posts himself playing a lot. hes not very good but hes trying goddammit. also runs a music sharing community page.

Seregios: uses his page exclusively to provoke people and to post inflammatory stuff. especially likes getting a rise out of rathalos and tigrex, and also astalos because all you have to say to astalos to get him angry is tell him his taste in music sucks

Yian Garuga: self-proclaimed "metrosexual". posts dick pics and gym selfies of himself that no one wants to see except nargacuga. gasses up nargacuga's posts and sees it like a "bro thing" when he does it. he's very confused sexually and everyone knows that except him

Nargacuga: the resident gamer. posts videos of him playing video games extremely well and also posts pictures of himself in thigh highs and has a very e-girl kinda energy. very openly flirts with yian garuga under his posts but yian garuga doesnt get it

The Greats and the Dromes: all of them exclusively post in an nsfw community where all they do is share nsfw around. they use facebook for nothing else

Zamtrios: is a very successful mukbang and asmr creator. at the end of every mukbang hes inflated and he uses his inflated state to make asmr videos with the sounds coming from it. this was very weird to type out

Deviljho: dentist that reposts his tiktoks about dental health on his facebook page. his videos give out a very sinister and uncomfortable vibe even though he just sincerely wants to help people with their dental health. he also wants their teeth but he tries to fight that urge

Diablos: ex-trucker with anger issues that has a very thick southern american accent and got fired after wasting millions of dollars in company assets and causing one of the worst pile-ups in history. posts mainly about trucks, guns, and pretending he still has a job. surprisingly not as right-wing as you might think. probably has a grindr

Gold Rathian and Silver Rathalos: its them after couples therapy. they run their architectural facebook page together now after rathalos got over his inferiority complex. youd think him being silver and her being gold wouldve made his inferiority complex worse but the story about it is that he chose silver so rathian could get gold and thats his way of saying he wants his wife to be in the spotlight willingly this time

Ahtal-Ka: shes just a very sweet tailor that posts about her sewing and knitting projects to her facebook page and posts tutorials for stuff. big fan of kaiju movies and also bionicles, and she posts about her custom bionicles a lot too

Lagiacrus: has a huge catalog of fish she's fished up and streams herself fishing every day. has multiple world records in fishing achievements

Teostra, Amatsu, and Bazelgeuse: all of them use their facebook pages for furthering their political agendas for becoming president. teostra is far-right, amatsu is like centrist left, and bazelgeuse is the communist party

Seltas and Seltas Queen: seltas queen is a dommy mommy that posts bdsm videos with like 30 different seltas on a regular basis. the seltas dont actually do anything related to the account but they get paid to be there so theyre technically part of it

Valstrax: facebook comedian. has incredible comedic timing. is Jerma985 (bullfango-kelbi hybrid mix)

Nakarkos: really fucking old dude that talks about war history too much and posts videos of like american wars talking about how "kids nowadays with their darn phones that arent dying for our country"

Brachydios: owner of a very prolific demolition company who films buildings going down for clout on facebook. pays his employees surprisingly well. definitely got into legal trouble for demolishing non-condemned buildings before

Chameleos: runs one of those life hack content farms that post incredibly unhelpful, possibly untrue, sometimes dangerous life hacks for clout. no one actually knows he runs the account though. he definitely does it just because he thinks its funny

Nerscylla: really old lady that doesnt know how to use electronics and types her google searches into facebook and reposts videos of plants while saying something like "These are so wonderful!" to everything she sees that she likes

Shagaru Magala: christian parent thats a megachurch pastor and a televangelist. posts nothing but bible verses on her account and tells you that youre going to hell every single day of their life. gave her kid religious trauma

Gore Magala: depressed zoomer that listens to hyperpop and breakcore and lives off of monster energy and weed. got fucked up from shagaru constantly telling them that if they dont grow up right theyre gonna end up a chaotic gore and that has stuck with them for the rest of their life. just posts a lot of self-deprecating humor and vaguely worrying memes.

Kushala Daora: oppenheimer/amatsu's biggest fan. self proclaimed "centrist political analyst" that just so happens to agree with like every dictator and warmonger in history. will go out of their way to argue under the posts of like anyone thats left-leaning. loves seeing other people in pain.

Malfestio: blue-collar office worker that has no dreams in its life. posts like hypnosis videos on facebook that like are actually super popular but he doesnt feel like he can make a living off of it so he hasn't even tried yet

Duramboros: the activist. goes out and protests like every good cause out there. posts about charities and parades that are going on around. grows vegetables on its back to feed homeless people

feelings on the pickle

[thehappiestgolucky]

I have the feeling that even the most badass and most uncaring of characters in your Blorbo Run would panic slightly when facing certain monsters because seriously Monster Hunter monsters are WACK-

Oh, for sure anon for sure.

I just haven’t gotten to those monsters yet in the Blorbo Run for Mei and Frye to suddenly be fazed by the existence of Zamtrios and good ol’ Khezu itself - not to mention Diablos and even Ratha himself ( :] ) nor have they had the chance to experience the majesty of the Hyperspace Tackle or pure terror of… :)

It may seem all calm now but soon the Blorbo Run characters will see the truly WHACK and genuinely scary cast of creatures Monster Hunter has. I just gotta progress to that point.

Whilst Mei and Frye have had it better seeing the more goofy ones first and being with natives, Blaidd is in a forest filled with at least creatures that may be tough but also recognisable somewhat to his world. Hornet is just keeping well away from noise and signs of more dangerous life (rip when she nearly stabs a group member who managed to catch up to her-) and Leon is - struggling in the middle of nowhere. They’ll get their “Oh shit oh FUCK” in due time

Tigrex is a contender for my favorite monhun monster of all time, a supreme hater made manifest

It’s not fueled by spite like the Yian Garuga, it doesn’t have the endless gnawing hunger of Deviljho driving its violence

It’s just an asshole, full stop.

It’s not just the Hunter either, Tigrex teeth are rated E for everyone at all times and places. It has no special elemental advantage or mythical power that lets its throw down with Elder dragons, it just does that anyway because it’s the evolutionary end point of the phrase “It’s on sight”

It has no elemental abilities and could still catch you sleeping because it threw whatever element the environment is at you, hope you thought to take into account the terrains element asshole! Then even if you did, it’s roar alone could do damage with no elemental defense to help negate it

It’s primary instinct is to fuck up you, your hunt target, gods, the economy and anything else it can get its teeth into. It used to be a nightmare for capture quests in games before map weakness indicators because it would just fight you in rage mode until it died instead of ever limping away

Tigrex would literally rather die than let you keep drawing breath for one more god damn second

It’s perfect

I love you Tigrex

[elendsessor]

it’s really interesting learning about more forgotten monsters in mh history not only bc the series is incredibly rich history-wise but some of these monsters look so fucking cool.

the big issue i see people have with frontier monsters is visually and mechanically. yeah on a design standpoint some aren’t winners and frontier operates differently, but if you’re looking for mmo monsters that could fit mainline, may i introduce online’s roster?

in some ways online is hd monster hunter before mhw released. graphically it’s beautiful but the monsters are also just. god you could say these are leaked monsters for wilds and that would sound legit.

it’s already a really interesting lineup but there’s also the subspecies and lone species. they made the crabs deadlier. they turned congalala gold. they made what happens if a monoblos loses its horn. they tore off some yian garuga’s ear. they set tigrex on fire again.

and hey do you want some monster just called “disaster wyvern” and looks like a fucked up mesh of brute wyvern components?

oh buddy does online have you covered.

[scrion7]

what the fuck do you mean new trailer dropped I JUST GOT HOME 5 MINS AGO WAIT

MH Wilds official website updated!

RELEASE DATE: FEBRUARY 28, 2025

Arkveld, aka the White Wraith: CONFIRMED FLAGSHIP.

also hot damn the Frontier 'WhipWing' Flying Wyvern skeleton returns! It's not quite the same (Frontier's had the whips in the center of the wing, this guy's are on the wingtips) but the inspiration is obvious.

EDIT: On second look, this guy might actually be using a modified pseudo - wyvern skeleton, like Tigrex. Still obviously inspired by Frontier though.

Unknown, likely brand new element/status. Likely free to enter any region. Spotted in both Scarlet Forest and in Windward Plains at the moment. Thick white fur coat implies it may be native to an unknown tundra region, however.

Uth Duna: Water element Leviathan Apex of the Scarlet Forest.

Sighted during the Inclemency (Downpour) of the Scarlet Forest, and uses water as a 'protective veil.' Namielle Lite, probably.

Quematrice: Fire element Brute Wyvern of the Windward Plains

Probably takes some inspiration from the Cockatrice, while fighting like the dwarf child of Glavenus and Violet Mizutsune. Probably around the tier of a Barroth if I'd have to guess, given it can "often be seen fighting with other, smaller carnivores over carrion."

you know, with Arkveld's skeleton and the Scarlet Forest's colorful daytime splendor, there's actually a chance that Zenaserisu (a WingWhip flying wyvern of Frontier's Painted Waterfalls) could return!

(I had it and the Falls down for returning even before this)

Also, given Uth Duna's immense size and low stance, I'd wager that the issues plaguing Lagiacrus have been solved... although I'm gonna be different and say ONLY Ivory Lagi will return.

[mig-murgthenurg]

Tea Common Shark's Monster Hunter Analogue Horror video on Youtube, while just a once-off parody, really demonstrates just how godforsakenly terrifying the Monster Hunter world is for the average person.

Like what the fuck could you do if a Great Jagras, a weak-as-piss potato that we Hunters bully due to how weak they are, attacks you? They're massive, bloodthirsty iguanas the size of an elephant that could swallow an elephant whole and are usually backed up by smaller bloodthirsty iguanas.

There's absolutely nothing you can do. You just have to hope you somehow get away or your death will at least be avenged by the government sanctioned psychopath who wields a sword the size of a cow and religiously wears the hides of the creatures they kill.

God forbid you run into anything that poses a moderate threat to Hunters. You are not getting away from a Tigrex or a Rathian or whatever else could be considered a genuinely dangerous monster to fight.

It's a pretty crazy and a little fucked up world when you think of it this way.

[siofra-river]

It is endlessly hilarious and frustrating that the mgs peace walker monster hunter crossover missions they chose like THE most annoying monsters that they could’ve had naked snake fight, out of all interesting and cool monsters you choose fucking tigrex??? Renowned for never being fun to fight? In ANY of the games he’s in?? And 3U/tri rathalos??? Who is infamous for NEVER landing and spamming like the same 2 moves over and over again?? It’s like they’re trying to get ppl to hate monster hunter 😭

[mhsexymonpoll]

Hi! We completely lost drive for this little project back in February, but you know what? Fuck it. We’re leaping back in. Let’s get this beast rolling again

- Mod Tigrex

[kaijuthespacemaniraptorian]

Mi-Ru skull made with 3D model and Parave anatomy as references!

Mi-Ru is a tough one to make given its weird skull proportions are pretty fucked up looking but then again hes a shapeshifting bastard so i guess theres that, the ears i think the "ears" are large crests a bit like Tigrex and Mi-ru's relative Dyuragaua, i wont bother to make skulls of his other forms i dont have the models for that i just have the model of his base form, Mi-Ru's thick and robust teeth suggest he kills armored prey but given that it lives in the tower its possible that it hunted the metal piscine wyverns Aruganosu and Goruganosu but im still unsure of his ecology as i believe that Mi-Ru is a genetically modified organism possibly an extinct relative of dyuragaua and would kind of make sense as to why he can shapeshift and why he can grow crystals on his body.

as for my thoughts on Mi-Ru i cant help but to ironically love him, no where near in my list of favorite monsters or even list of favorite frontier monsters but its certainly far from my least favorites, the design is cool im a slut for mammalian looking reptiles and i love his speed and final form as they look awesome, i also enjoyed fighting him in frontier and his fucking theme is just incredible definitly in my list of favorite monster hunter themes ever!

you can leave your thoughts on the skull down here i would really appreciate it ^w^!

[gleeokenspiel]

thinking about it again but honestly. i fully believe that a very good amount of monster hunters in universe would probably be hard of hearing/have hearing damage to some extent. those creatures yell so damn loudly a good chunk of them literally make hunters flinch and cover their ears. also tigrex's roar deals damage. not to add melee users can be very close to the monster when they yell

on the other hand, disability as a result of injury also probably isnt super uncommon either, even if all humans Are a lot sturdier than us in real life. be in the job long enough you'll probably break more than a few bones or get something fucked up a little too hard even with all the armor and precautions and experience i think

disability aids are fairly available as a result and not very judged (but you can sadly probably never escape the pity looks) and theres also probably a good amount of accommodation for those who need it

[luvsavos]

Oh damn…yeah on the “Aiden has killed a guy” thing we definitely disagree 😅 I gotta say, the concept of turning INTO an Elder Dragon is seriously something else…and it’s so neat that you also LOTG…I was like “hey how come at the end Aiden’s a solemn and then you see him at the beginning of World and he’s like “heyyyyy”. And she’s like “probably trying to be cool”. Still love how he sees you sitting alone and is like “absolutely not :)” ah, hold on, lemme continue this in another ask 😅

worry not this is absolutely wonderful i love talking in depth/length about characters like this<3

honestly my main backing for saying he's had to kill someone is two things: a) i like to make my faves suffer and having to kill another person would weigh VERY heavily on aiden, b) guild knights already do that as is, so while it's definitely FAR more likely that aiden was tasked with Just going around to help protect people, it Is a possibility and i use that to my advantage to make him suffer<3 i'd say he's fine but [gently pats the top of his head] this bad boy can fit so much repressed trauma in it LMAO

aiden was, i believe, the second instance of someone getting poofed into an elder dragon by vodrem; everyone else was just normal monsters (shang was an anjanath, and ended up keeping the alt form because he looked like the anja that raised him, the admiral was a tigrex, the huntsman was an acidic glavenus, the tracker was an odogaron, the seeker was the other elder dragon, an eo garudia; i don't THINK there were others but this was over a year ago and my memory is fuzzy</3 achilles also ended up getting poofed into an elder dragon at some point after the guild arc part 2, a xeno and then safi'jiiva, after aiden got spooked back into the fatalis form and let him drain some of his energy to speed up the molting process. he also ended up keeping the safi form, albeit by choice, so now he's just kinda this fucked up Black Dragon Lite™️ safi with primarily black colouration and dark red mottling and purple energy, i actually have a drawing i did of it somewhere as a ref for my friend, he is Very Pretty😌) i chose fatalis primarily because of how heavily i associate aiden with fatty (thanks iceborne) but also since i thought itd be interesting to explore a kind and outgoing and bubbly character like him grappling with the innate violence and rage of a fatalis... yet again making him suffer LMAO. to give him credit, he's done a good job at it, mostly because he typically just ends up being an oversized skittish cat who refuses to actually use any of the fatalis capabilities (save for flying, which he does admittedly enjoy). pancaketalis<3 i'll draw him fatalis'ed eventually, once i figure out how to texture the burn scars since they wouldn't be all that visible bc of the black scales

i definitely see aiden as the kind of person who doesn't, like, really Want to Let others see any solemness or whatnot from him most of the time; he's energetic, excitable, social and outgoing, and wants to maintain that---he doesn't want people to worry over him, i think. after all, he's usually the one that's trying to cheer everyone else up and support them, which may sort of be a way to try to deal with his own issues, in a way? me too buddy me too

i also adore how he's introduced in world, i think it's part of what got me to like him so much tbh. him immediately gravitating towards the one person sitting alone that didn't appear to have anyone else but their palico around with them, because everyone should feel included and welcomed, and while everyone else is already eating and talking away the player character is just sorta There, so of course, he strikes up a conversation, because that's what he does<3 nobody gets left out or left behind

(sidenote: i love that the fatalis pre-cutscene mirrors the intro cutscene. chefs fucking kiss im so normal about that)

[theearthmagicguy]

Is monhun stories any good?

1 definitely is, love that game to bits. The designs of every monster when they hatch are So Fucking Cute, you got a lotta options on who you wanna take with you (maybe a lil less since they also help with traversal), and like any good monster raising game you can make your pookie work if you want it bad enough. Apothonoth VS. Rajang, I believe in him.

The supers for each of em are also just filled with charm, some of em being cool like the Rath supers, being as blunt as a rock like the Bulldromes super, Khezu, or the goofy shit with the Azuros or Kut Ku super. I'd recommend looking up footage of em just to see.

The only downside (aside from Navirou, we aren't going to talk about him in this ask) is that some monsters are locked until you go through the story a bit. Except you can find and hatch em right here. Lemme hug my buppy tigrex. Lemme rub his tummyyy.

[a-musing-mixologist]

"REVERTO PUT ME THE FUCK DOWN!" She is so small compared to him! So tiny! And apparently even a tough rider such as Mari has found her match. That's no surprise—a teenage, less experienced dragonslayer compared to a one who has probably been doing his job for as long as she's been alive? Yeah she's not getting out of this one.

He's fought everything from Gendrome to rampaging Tigrex, more than earning his chops as a Hunter. Large or small, he wielded his greatsword with practiced ease. Had the cave housed a pack of bird wyverns or even a Khezu, he'd have been fine. But an entire nest of Bnahbara is where he draws the line (actually he draws it at one of the damned things). He had scooped up Mari like a sack of potatoes and was currently charging toward the exit at full speed.

"Ew ew ew EW EW ew! I WILL once we get outta HERE! There's plenty of other paths to choose, you can pick one of those!" Were the bugs following them? The bugs were probably following them.

[elendsessor]

these tags on my ukanlos posts are right so

this is a callout post

fuck you akantor your design cannot save you as good as it may be

-asshole

-hits too hard with wonky hitboxes especially the further back you go (his silly dead stare does not excuse him (oh dear god why is his hitbox so big when he resurfaces))

-abandoned his tetsucabra children when they were tadpoles

-has lied about his race in all 10 games he’s been in

-bane of everyone in universe not even ukanlos or odibatorasu have been that bad and one of them isn’t even confirmed canon but is shown killing monsters in his own trailer how is akantor worse than that when we’ve never seen him do anything but sit on his fat butt in a lava sauna

-will not stop yelling and i want him to shut up

-has beaten many male, female, gender nonconforming, young, elderly, and neurodivergent individuals to death (he doesn’t discriminate but it’s still morally wrong) (also traumatized a certain palico in cheeko sands)

-nobody likes defense down

-sucks in g rank especially it should be illegal for him to hit that hard while also lowering defense and having a yell that keeps going and going only tigrex has the roar excuse

i hope he never escapes old school may he be banished to capcom’s basement for forever and ever and ever

[james-silvercat]

Monster hunter is the kind of game where the first five or ten quests have you wanting to ragequit so bad but then you Learn The Dance and now i can dispatch a brute tigrex in 20 minutes and i fucking love doing it

Monster Hunter is one of the only games that grinding in them is actually enjoyable I feel.
