I agree with that. Subspecies are just what they are; A different version of the same creature. Like all the different breeds of dogs and cats. Where's the original dog or the original cat? Jinouga didn't do anything to become this. It's not like he made a pact with the Devil to get this new look... You saying that it had to do someting to look this way is like say that every other subspecies in the Monster Hunter mythos had to do something to look the way they do. The only exception to this would be Lao-Shan Lung, but alas, it's the same beast. It just changed color depending on it's enviroment; According to that Wyverian Elder in Freedom Unite, it it goes through areas with high amounts of Iron Ore, it turns red. But if it walks through the Volcanic Belt, it turns blue.
