i'd say better:

Rathalos and Rathian will ALWAYS be there, so i'll ignore them X°D

Diablos was in mh3 - 3U, and monoblos without diablos... is kinda like bringing basarios without gravios, even if Monoblos isn't a jeuvenile form

Lunastra was downgraded in mhf2, she was low rank only and chamaleos was... well... let's say it, Chamaleos was the coolest Elder Dragon of mhf2, i love chamaleons, i love extremely-large chamaleons, i was creeped by its intro, i loved loved LOVED it. but... we must face it, he wasn't as strong as Daora and -very unfortunately- as Teostra

-Crabs? i admit i was surprised Cenataur wasn't back, but i kinda figured it out after seeing the new big neopterons... maybe they're not just as popular as they are here?

Blangonga... well... i'm confused,but i guess they choosed Congalala over popularity poll/fun (MEH.), also, Lagombi kinda covered Blangonga's role

-They bringed Tigrex, but i was expecting a former flagship to get a rare species, i even tought "in future maybe Brachydios will get its own sub and rare!"... we'll have to wait for mh4G for keep hoping X°D

-some -POOR- monsters from third gen :/ Great Jaggi, Deviljho, Brachydios, and Zinogre (and Lagombi... poor memory)... btw, Zinogre is Capcom's chief's fav monster (so expect it to get a rare in future or to come back in lots of games)

-and then everything, i guess over popularity polls... some choices are too suspicious. (DOUBLE MEH.) and while doing so, some monsters had to come back: for gravios we have basarios, as example!

despite thinking Plesioth is an annoying-to-fight-monster i am truly happy they at least "tried" to put monsters in there... sadly we can't capture uragaans/barroths/lunastras etc. with nets, so... it's difficult to do the same with excavation team... sigh
