@Cottonmouth255: I have three reasons why I say it has Slimeblight/Blast.

1. The rock Tetsukabura Subspecies was holding looked strongly similar to the rocks that the Tigrex Rare Species throws at hunters.

2. When the rock exploded, I saw small bits of yellow ash which is also similar to how Slime/Blast looks like now in the 4th Generation.

3. The explosion of the rock doesn't look to much like the flames you would see in MH4 plus the fire rocks from MH3U are in the game but their explosive radius is smaller yet you can still see their fire when they explode. Also, when I to blew up one of the rocks, I didn't see any yellow ash come from the explosion while when the Tigrex Rare Species threw one of its rocks I did see it.

@Democide: Most of it assumption since there is no proof to this but since Goa Magara hasn't appeared in any trailers yet kinda like Zinogre in MH3G, its pretty much safe to assume that its getting a Subspecies since Goa is also a new monster plus the Flagships usually get Subspecies in like the next game. Though assumption, most of this is bound to happen in either this game or another game, though we unexpectedly got more new monsters than we expected in MH4 like the Kirin Subspecies, Tigrex Rare Species, and Basarios Subspecies.
