@AWC: Oh, thanks for reminding me! I forgot to include Ancient Rathian!

This thing is the literal definition of bada**. She looks demon hard to fight, and the six/seven levels of rage mode make her look totally wicked. When she's in her final form, I love the red patterns that bloom on the wings, and the killer red eyes. My favorite attacks would have to be those ghostly fireballs and the wing thorns.

If I HAD to pick something to improve about her, I'd pick three things - update her like the other Rathians, give the aforementioned wing thorns the Poison ailment, and put her in a fitting environment like Castle Schrade or the Tide Island caves.
