"The official name for Stubby (our pet name for him on the MH3U localization team ;) is Brachydios, not Bracchidios. Actually, the meaning behind the original Japanese name is a little bit different from what you're thinking. The first part of the name is indeed referring to Bracchium, but the last part is derived from the raw material Obsidian, the color of the monster." Reno, Capcom localization team. In other news, Here's a convenient .zip of all currently released MH3U HD screenshots for someone to pretty up the MH3U main page with (since it's locked to all editing for whatever reason) http://www.filedropper.com/mh3uscreenshots
