IF Capcom really created this creature based on my suggestion, then I have the answers for all that question!


 * ) Why did this Narga have a poison ability? (and can only dissapear below moonlight?)

Ever heard about Bobtail squid? They have a symbiotic relationship with bioluminescent bacteria that lives on the creature's lower belly (or whatever it was called.), and can provide their ability to generate light, matching the amount of moonlight (yes they are nocturnal by nature. And sunlight would be overkill in terms of bioluminesce power). I based Moonlight Narga (in-novel) on this creature to have that kind of cloaking ability. (since white Narga would be cool. And a TELEPORTING NINJA NARGA would be awesome.)

SO! The answer is, Lucent Narga (may, since this is Capcom's version instead of mine) has symbiotic bacteria living inside their bloodstream (which in turn flows into their almost-clear scales), which they can use to mimic their surrounding, much like normal squid/octopi can do! That also explained the 'poison' status, since their tail spikes practically acts like syringe, putting that bacteria into Hunter's bloodstream.
