You don't find the idea of a sightless active predator even a bit cool? Eyesight isn't the be all and end all, if it's thermosensors or whatever were sufficiently advanced it could compensate for a lack of eyes. For what it's worth I don't think Goa Magara has eyes, either.

I agree, Snowy Area -> Sub to Desert area is overdone, which is why I suggested the idea of Baleful Gigginox hanging out in the Flooded Forest. Actually I think the Deserted Island would be interesting too (the cave area is too small, but areas 6, 7 and 8 all have the same vibe).

Basically I'm just saying that sticking Baleful in the Tundra right alongside the original species lacks imagination (and I'll probably be repeating this complaint with Steel Uragaan, though in fairness that's a slightly harder creature to move elsewhere, for various reasons).
