Volvidon...

I have mixed feelings about this monster. Like a lot of the new monsters, it has an awesome concept that is partly let down by everything else. An armmadillo type monster was needed really, and the rolling is nice. Thing is though, armaldillos have all that armour to turn them into walking tanks. Volvidon has a shell made of super thick and tough red plates. Yet it is easily damaged. I also hate the way he stands. He looks as though he has been stuffed when he stands up, with his arms out and belly open. Less walking fortress more teddy bear.

His moveset is restriced, depite the number of moves he has. 70% of them are him rolling at the hunter. He is also very easy. Seriosly, on the quest with 2 volvidons and 2 G-jaggi, I was finding the G-jaggi more difficult. The long tounge is cool, as is the paralisis. Maybe he extracts the paralysing toxins from the bugs he eats.

Yay, first relevent comment!
