My favorite desert for me would be the Old Desert, mainly because it feels like an area where monsters would really live in! Although the other deserts do have everything that this one does, the arrangement of rocks, trees, and water spots seem "fit" on the first gen desert. Plus, having more than just one "safety cave" for monsters gives a sense of multiple homes for them.

The one and truly owner of all the deserts for me is Diablos (sorry Monoblos), mainly because he's both powerful and has a nice design. It seems fit that he only appears in the desert, since harsh environments demand harsh personalities, and boy does he have a temper. Other monsters are fun to hunt too, and eventually we'll all end up spending days at the desert to get those high raw power weapons that we love so much ^^.
