The phylogenetic relations however are canon. Check out the Phylogeny used in this video series: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vr0ThfPbrzj87DinYiB-r6P2QFog8oyRDPGy7OlF9wk/edit?usp=sharing

Diablos is a monster I like solely for being different to most monsters in his clade, he doesn’t sleep, paralyze or poison you, he has no elemental or breath attacks to speak of. He digs as opposed to flying and he’s pure brutal physical might. Also the roar I can’t forget the roar. With all that being said, it would be really nice for Monoblos to get another shot one of these days. Edit: Oh yeah I also forgot to add that Diablos is a herbivore and it’s still deadly even with that. A good indicator just that because a monster eats only Plants doesn’t me you still shouldn’t label it a non issue.

diablos being sad when its favorite cactus die is SO WHOLESOME

I love how the law of having 4 party members is a commemoration of someone's passing The subtlety of it is fascinating

Omg Diablos being an avid plant girl is everything, I love the idea. Also it adds to the idea that true wyverns do really possess near human intelligence.

I think what's most terrifying about the Bloodbath Diablos is that it knows what it's doing. It knows what it's fighting. When hunters are sent out after this wyvern, they probably aren't expecting an enemy that is just as combat intelligent as they are, if not even more. It's scary fighting an aggressive monster that could easily kill you, but it's so much more horrifying fighting an intelligent monster that knows how to kill you.

The fact that Diablos is vulnerable to sound reminds of the time where me and two friends were hunting one, then a Deviljho appeared just as Diablos was about to burst out of the ground and attack us , and the Deviljho roared so loud that it disrupted the Diablos’ and stunned it.

Great video overall. You gotta love how, in a world of fire-breathing dragons, wolves that control electricity-generating insects, and shrieking, ice-breathing cockatoos, the Blos wyverns stay at the top of their biome with nothing more than sheer brute strength and unyielding rage. But one thing you got wrong - Diablos is the cactus specialist, while Monoblos is a more generalist herbivore, eating other desert plants.

I like the idea that the big scary diablos gets bummed out if its cactus patch is wrecked

THAT roar has haunted my nightmares for the longest time and every time I hear it in game I go into survival mode. Diablos is such an intense monster I think mother nature went a little overboard. Thank the Five it is an herbivore.

Bloodbath diablos: “you all forsaken me, made me a monster among my species, took my protection, my pride and my happiness, but now… it’s time for me to take your horns” Bloodbath hates the hunter for a reason

Hearing the name Blos makes me chuckle every time. This makes me wanna rewatch your MHLegends episode on the red diablos. ILikeCacti/10

I love bloodbath, they're so cool with their mishapen horn. And those moves looks scary and awesome to me.

We need monoblos baaack! or at least a hint that they went extint like UHC says

I forgot there was a lore reason for why Monoblos fights are always solo, I remembered the bit about it being the origin of the 4 hunters per party though. Lunastra also used to have that honor, only being available as a solo hunt, though I don't know if there was ever any lore to explain why that was the case, or if they just wanted there to be more incentive for players to play through village quest content. Regardless, I'm curious to see if Monoblos will ever return, and whether or not they'll maintain its "solo only" status when it does.

Always a good day when one of these videos drops. Can't wait to see what you'll be covering on the Elder Dragons!

Bloodbath is one of my favorite monsters for the sheer fact it has no super amped element or status yet is still considered one of if not thee strongest non-elder in the series barring the Gods. Through sheer rage and physical might it blows through any and all obstacles in its path be they man made or natures pinnacles. Side note: I know in game there can be multiple deviants and even in lore there can be but I like to think there are only 1 of each deviant, in my head they're the white whales of monster hunter, beings of legend and in taking one down a hunter becomes a legend made flesh. One of the highest achievements a hunter can achieve barring killing a black dragon or super mega apex elder.

The Blos wyverns are among my favorites, and honestly I see them as a sort of symbol to the franchise as much as the Rathalos is. I hope Capcom takes care to further differentiate Monoblos and Diablos going forward, and even featuring both in the upcoming Monster Hunter Wilds, given that deserts and rocky formations seem to feature prominently.

I don't think I have ever heard of monoblos eating cacti. I have always assumed niche partitioning would lead to monoblos not eating them, especially as eating cacti needs a fair amount of specialisation.

Monoblos seems to have a build and face more akin to ceratopcian dinosaurs. Not just because of the frill and horn. The beak seems to fit for that type of creature as well. Diablos though I can't even compare to other creatures. But some of its actions and patterns seem like those of bison and wildebeest. Mostly the going back and forth to food/water.

Pure raw physical strength No elements No gimmicks Just you The beast And only the vast desert to view the victor Diablos is my favourite monster bar none, that being said I would love Monoblos to get a chance to shine

Loving this series!

YEAH BABY!!! THATS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR! THATS WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT! WHOOOOHHH!

I remember fighying white mono for the first time in 4U, seeing it do that U turn charge sent Eurobeat through my head the entire time.

Your terrain shots show how beautiful these games are so well. Always a pleasure to see these

This one was really good. Thank you for your hard work on these videos.

Blos are one of my favorite monsters! thanks for another great video‼

Love your content man! Thanks For all your hardwork!😊😊😊😊

Great vid! Looking forward when you eventually make a psuedo wyvern and fanged wyvern docu!

I really love your videos they are extremely entertaining and informative even if some of the stuff is guess work and fun storytelling.

So cool to have Oceaniz as Monster Hunter community's very own Sir David Attenborough 🥳 You sure produce such fascinating and informative MH content of high quality !! Please keep going, fren!! We're grateful to have you 🙏

Love your videos man

Would love to hunt with yah sometime. Love the style of your videos. Good luck in all you do!

One other thing about bloodbath. If it enters the maximum rage state, the beast is at risk of burning out or having a heart attack, since a Blos' body is not meant to run at that level.

Great video. 🙌

Yay! Finally more Blood Bath Diabolos content! My favourite monster if the entire series, such fascinating idea of a "anti-hunter" unlike Fatalis who is born to destroy us, it develop from the cause of hunters and live life like a hunter facing threats that league stronger than it is, yet it survive, but with not triumph or glory, it merely survive and with the knowing that there is more to come, no enjoyment, pure hatred.

I wouldn’t mind Diablos takes a break so Monoblos can appear once more. Heck maybe have it debut Monoblos equivalent of bloodbath and make them the reason there are no Diablos.

I'll have to find the Playlist because I like this

I think it would be awesome to hear you talk about the 2 monsters exclusive to Monster Hunter Stories! As my first MH game, I'm biased, but Makili Pietru and Oltura are talked about less often than even the most obscure monsters imo. Especially for the lore and role they play in the Monster Hunter World!

Monolops just be a stiracasaurus with a wyvern body

Diablos is truly my favorite monster, since the first game. Its deviant is 1 of 3 monsters that produces a sound loud enough to interrupt the music

That bit about proof of a hero almost put me in tears

Nothing beats monster hunter in the morning

Diablos: Nature's most violent gardener.

thanks

Unpopular opinion here…. At least from Reddit I don’t know about this part of the community. I always like Monoblos more than Diablos as a monster. Yes I know they basically do the same exact thing, but Monoblos always had a special place in my heart. I wish we get them in future games with maybe a new Variant or Rare species.

i fucking love this channel

LETS GOOO MONOBLOS APPRECIATION GRRAAAAAAHHHH

remember when 2 black diablos hunts in packs and stalk a battle ship in a live action movie?... yeah i dont remember either, i probably just dreamt it. incredible documentary video of the blos btw, have been waiting for this one. got curios with the next one.

Monoblos hunting is the OG Monster hunter Theme

Monoblos, and White Monoblos. Truly a 💎 I miss them and hope they bring it back. Diablos has been seen Thousands of times zzzz

Diablos is such a cool monster

Me when I see a new oceans vid Fuck yeah

i hope we see both monoblos, and bloodbath diablos in monster hunter wilds.

Top tier once again

Little bit of correction, Kokoto's elder The Five incident happened when they fought agains Lao-Shan Lung and not Monoblos. Kokoto's elder slay Monoblos when hunting solo as stated in the first game. Love the video either way, keep doing it man..

I was so happi I took down a g4 diablos in mhgu first try. Took hours of learning from previous lower rank diablos defeats but once you crack his attack timing and go adept style hammer. The fights super ez

This is my favourite rendition of the rule of the five, I always thought it was a Lao they hunted and not a Monoblos, I knew about the fact that anyone who successfully hunted down one would be crowned a hero but I didn't piece it together with "proof of a hero" cool stuff.

14:06 .....Okay, now I'm getting the image of a Diablos acting like an expert herbalist and farmer, inspecting their Cacti like a grunting caveman checking for tracks in its hunting ground, grunting in approval for their find, and an image of a Diablos, its horns completely bloody, woth stacks of Apceros corpses and even a few stray Pukei just accidentally caught in its wake, with their Cacti patches completely clean and practically gleaming, qnd with the caption, "Its not much, but it's honest work".

I very like fact that both of these creatures are herbivores. It makes them much more unique in comparison to other wyverns.

i like Monoblos more than Diablos i really wish he was in World instead of Diablos also i have a theory abotu Diablos's horns, i think they might be many horns coiled up into 1 SUPER horn each, look at the spiraled look of them, look at hor BloodBath's splinter into multiple, this to me means Diablos is technically more like a "Hexablos"

It’s really sad how monoblos can’t be found in rise and I really like it so I hope someday they add it back also great content 🤩

For Diablos, I just had a *Movie Idea*. A beginner monster hunter went out on an exploration. Met with a diablos, stared straight into his eyes locked full with intensity. The hunter acknowledge the danger he is in, and move quickly away from the cacti patches. From a far and looking out through a binocular, he marveled at the beast size and his sheer dumb luck to still be alive. He knows how territorial such a beast is, and how it cares for the cacti patches. As he stood there high up on a ridge, a single fleck of dirt hit the ground below and alert the diablos. Hoping to not agitatete the beast further, the hunter quickly retreats. --------------- After informing this it with the guild, they have decided that the Diablos does not warrant a hunt as it is to far away from civilization and is pretty docile. Hearing this news, somewhat gave the hunter relieved as the beast did spare his sorry ass. he should have left it at that, but being the stupid dumb hunter that he is, he could not help it but become curious on this one diablos. So, he came up with a plan to meet with this diablo again. A few 10 meters away from the spot they met, the hunter waits for the beast to come out to eat/tends to its garden. After some moments have passed, a thundering footstep began to fill the area. The diablos appeared and begin to tend to its garden. Having waiting for this moment, the hunter whistle loudly but also soothingly. The diablos looked directly towards the source of the sound. The hunter now having the beast full attention, began to flung cactus "leaf" towards it. He wishes that the monster would accept this peace offering. Contrary to his foolproof plan, the diablos charged straight to him. The hunter after barely able to dodge, was now trembling and running haphazardly from the beast attacks. Plots - The diablos went back to his garden and notice that its garden was left untouched and the cacti was cactua that was flung was not from its garden - The hunter was mocked and ridicule by an slightly older hunter that got hard stuck on HR 3. He boast how at the hunter's age, he already beaten (repel) a diablos on his own. - The truth is, the bully hunter only fought a juvenile diablos and during their battle the diablos horn was broken. However, the bully also was beaten to death. He was only saved because the juvenile diablo plunged down into a ravine. You know where this is going.... - Back to MC storyline, he went back to the diablos territory...relationship: tolerable I cant come up with more plots for befriending the beast (would love for some idea): - the beast does not attack hunter immdeiately - lets hunter tend it garden - after some trust, the diablo even let the hunter tend to its garden without supervision - hunter bravely entered diablos lair - can now move pretty freely only do not cause noises MATING SEASON - the beast was a SHE! - Hunter almost died, - Hunter almost died, - Hunter should have died, - but no worries, about 3 - 4 male diablos almost died too by being impaled. - The hunter cant even come close to garden or her territory. - Hunter & Palico (forgot to insert our sidekick as the generic MC pet friend) looking from a far playing tic tac toe. Climax: BloodBath & Diablos Everywhere!!! Ending: 1. Hunter died, beast move on 2. Diablos died, Hunter killed Bloodbath and become a Guild Knight, and start killing toxic players

how have you managed to make me feel empathy for a monster i absolutely despise to fight!? I have only ever fought Diablos twice, and each time I was just dragging my feet and wanting it to be over. now I want shirt with a cute lil diablos happily surrounded by his own lil garden of cati ❤

Where do you find that more specific information like Genus and Order?

9:56 🎺🎺🎺

I kinda want monoblos to get a deviant or a sub species like azure rathalos or pink rathian that is strong enough to actually last in a fight against a bloodbath diablos, why is because i like monoblos also they are the only blos and almost like rival species to eachother so it would be super cool for either one mainly the subspecies because it would give more of a rival feel for them

does anyone know the music played in the monster hunter ecology title card segment?

Quality content as usual good sir. What version of the freecam do you use to get the zoom-in freeze frame shots they look fantastic. Any help is appreciated thank you.

Wait… Wasn’t a member of the horn wyvern‘s that live in the volcano? I wonder what it would look like if there were actual habitat variance of the horned wyvern‘s? Someone did on deviantart made art of some about Diablos

yooo banished ! nice

I love these two buggers, mainly because they represent something that has unfortunately become forgotten in the modern world, in our age of donestication and deforestation: Herbivores are goddamn scary man. Everyone’s afraid of Lions, Leopards, and Hyenas when it comes to the African savannah, but the real threats are the oh so “innocent” plant munchers, like Zebras, Water Buffalo, Rhinos, Wildebeest, Elephants, and Hippos. Yeah, a lion will eat you if given the chance, and so will a leopard or pack of hyenas , but all those guys listed above have to deal with them on a daily basis, forever. Apply that same concept to the world of Monster Hunter, and suddenly a cactus munching wyvern of little to no renown ballooning up over the course of thousands of years into a massive ball of bone, muscle, and indiscriminate hatred suddenly makes sense.

Shoutout to diablos for giving me a nightmare when I was on 7th grade

If that's what happens when a daiablos loses a horn I sorta wanna know what happens when a monoblos loses it's only horn and survives to maturity

Diablos is based on triceratops Monoblos is based on styracosaurus

So everytime I slaid a black diabolos Islaid 2 monters? So were is my double reward?😅

i think the reason why Monobloses aren't as common as the Diablos is due to the fact that they were hunted almost to extinction so thus they were illegalized to hunt until they return to their original population.

I only just realized season 1 means generation one 😂

How do I get steel gajau whiskers

Now here comes a question. where monoblos heart is placed? It is obvious that it's in his body, but when you break a monoblos skull from a daimyo then you can get a monoblos heart, and not only even that you can get it from a shiny drop. So like is he having more than 1 heart or what? Also bloses aren't territorial, they are just overprotective gardener and don't want their cactuses to be destroyed

Remember fellas, get yourselves a girl that loves me as much as a diablos loves its cactus

Thought Diablos laid eggs? They ever had a official confirmation if they laid eggs or not?

It’s most depressing that Diablos still has no theme. I mean they could have just kept the Bloodbath one for later games, right?

When i started playing world my friend warned me to not hit a screamer as to not call a diablos Hit it with a slinger rock, calling his bluff Then a diablos came at me A good fight

The diablos from Kamura be like 👶🏻

>Dude fights Monoblos for 40 days straight with unupgraded Bone SnS. >Guild first rule is to limit hunts to 50minutes.

I like to think monoblos are so rare because before the guild was really formed, hunters continued to hunt and kill monoblos without rest for their crimson horn, much like poachers with modern day rhinos.

I like to think a quiet person growing cactus could "befriend" one over time.

"proof of a hero" would have made more sense to call it "the blossoming"

I think the blos monsters make the absolute least sense. How is something with heavy plate armor, cumbersome spikes, massive horns, and a giant club on its tail supposed to sail effortlessly through the sand? It's the least aerodynamic of any of the wyverns and still has to tuck its huge useless wings to its side in order to burrow believably. Idk they just seem silly

Hmmm after watching this it got me thinking since the Black diablos is the female counterpart of the Diablos wouldn't that mean the White Monoblos is the female counterpart to the Monoblos?

NO now i will feel bad for every black diablos I should have never knew their pregnant

Going from the Demons of the Desert to the Rubber Flail Chicken seems like a downgrade, but I don't mind.

"Sufficiently fertilized"... i dare not search out Rule 34 on this premise

So Diablos are basicly introverts, and Black Diablos are girls when they are in their period....😂

god.. the first time i heard that roar when i was a kid in MHF2

Source? Lol
