Extint species would actually be the perfect opportunity to do something more than "Wyvern Rex is a super Tigrex". Rex wouldn't be just Tigrex's ancestor but also other monsters like Nargacuga and Barioth. Maybe the ancient species could combine elements of all their future selves. Wyvern Rex could charge like Tigrex but also tail slam like Nargacuga and jump on walls like Barioth Ancient Rathalos could be a mix of Rathalos and Rathian and even combine elements from their many other forms Ancient Yian kut ku would also be ancient Yian garuga and maybe take from Gypseros since they're similar You can see the idea of ancient version of monsters makes a lot of happy sparks in my brain
Honestly this may be a unpopular opinion, But I actually really hope the blackflame isn't a extinct species and just a regular apex of the region. Also I think would make arkveld more of a stand-out flagship, but this is just me.
Yes extinct or ancient monsters would be so good ever since I saw that video of the generations of monsters Ive wanted a whole game of them in it. Imagine an ancient anjanath that’s spiky and way more aggressive and has a poisonous bite but also the flame breath still thats sounds awesome.I know Espanas is a thing but I’m just brain storming
I find it funny that when we picture ancient species, we think velociraptor to chicken, rather then small rodent like creature to lion or elephant. If there are other ancient species then Arkvelt, imagine if they would be weaker then the base species. Like what if Wyvern rex is just a 3 Star monster and be the size of a Great Girros or Great Baggi, therefore earlier/ easier hunt then Tigrex, but is then used like an introduction to ancient species.
i have 2 ideas for an extinct species for the Raths. the first one is the Prototype Wyvern from MH1's concept art. it's basically a quadrupedal version of the Raths, with traits from both - and poison breath, as the notes read (but let's change it to fire to give it another similarity to the Raths). another idea is Unknown from Frontier. he could finally have a proper name, and maybe even a title. Wilds is an opportunity for him to officially be part of the mainline games alongside Lavasioth and (most notably) Espinas. either one would work. in case someone still doesn't think "reskin" subspecies should come back, let me reiterate what i've said in the "no new subspecies & more extinct species" video, then repeat my examples: have the "reskin" subspecies specialize in whatever trait they have; and also have that trait affect their behaviour in multiple ways. now, for the examples. example 1: Azure Rathalos. stays in the air more than base Rathalos? it's somewhat there in World, but he stands to learn a few new tricks. he's got Silver Rathalos' charged fireball from WorldBorne on top of being more airborne, there's that. he could be more acrobatic in the air, with tighter turns and quicker movement. because of his superior flying skills (compared to base Rathalos, of course), have him dominate almost every other flying monster in the game in aerial turf wars; he could even give Rey Dau trouble, despite the weakness to Thunder. he also could be a more proficient fire-breather. remember Rathalos from the 2020 movie? (bear with me, here) this is what i mean: have him breathe fire, as in ACTUAL streams of fire. a stationary forward blast like Anjanath, a sweeping stream like Alatreon, airborne versions of those attacks, a midair strafe. have his lungs be so well-developed that his fire travels further as a result. make him smart enough to use his fire breath to burn the grass of the Windward Plains and trap Ceratonoth and Dalthydon - and the hunter. and have him perch on an outcrop or broken tree and bombard you with fireballs - though he wouldn't do it for long. example 2: Pink Rathian. her colour doesn't grant her camouflage, therefore making her more aggressive, right? let's also make her smarter. if Pink Rathian's going be aggressive to make up for her lack of camouflage, then she's going to need those battle smarts. give her more tail attacks, instead of making her spam backflips. something like a simple swipe - no, not the "turning tail swipe" from Gens 1 through 4 - and she could thrust her tail, use the spikes to stab enemies. hell, she could use her increased battle intelligence to parry attacks with her tail. because of her colour, she would also be selective with nests, preferring more secluded ones. this is how i'd overhaul "reskin" subspecies like Azure and Pink: give them new tricks by using what they already have. and give them a different behaviour based on those attacks, like Azure's "perch & snipe", as well as a different behaviour based on how the subspecies' trait affects it, like Pink's colour.
I like to think the extinct species that are in wilds are just around the world in a very isolated/undiscovered areas like how we find ancient or extinct species living today in the real world and mh wilds maps are those isolated areas that the guild haven’t found yet
Just thinking on an Ancient Rath, Raths prime their breath attacks like they're spiting fire so its entirely possible before being a stream of flames this used to be a more volatile and unwieldy spit attack. Raths still use fireballs capable of stunning as their big attacks and Dreadking wields the explosive power with its flamesac, key difference being Ancient Rath would lack proper fire attacks. It could even have a heavier build or just be a pseudo wyvern most similar to Barioth.
Given the leaks im pretty sure josh is just talking about the leaks as if they are his predictions. We now know there is a complete designation for extinct species versions of even normal monsters like doshaguma.
Josh you haven't made your once-per-monster-hunter-game-cycle talk on the equal dragon weapon; are you okay? (Equal dragon weapon would be a really cool endgame for Wilds if the ruins in the scarlet forest are actually ancient civilisation)
It sounds like they may pull what they did with seregios in MH4U, but instead of them being driven out and fleeing their hiding spot, we're gonna be the invaders.
If extinct elder dragons are a thing in this game I wonder what prehistoric valstrax would look like would it have the jet wings or regular wings and there are six circles in the logo if you count them as areas then there is an extra area which could be a area with extinct monsters
I'm excited to see cotton's reaction to all this but when they get to the black flame I see A LOT of uncomfortable conversations about him because Josh's obsession
I think extinct species are kinda a stretch cause the black flame isn’t really confirmed to be one. If it is mb but I think we might see something more like blood bath diablos than ancient species. But will they introduce new monsters that were believed to be extinct and not be an ancestor of any monster maybe? Cause monsters will always adapt and evolve. Who knows though until we get it am I right? Also the monster hunter planet could be massively bigger than earth and that’s why many cultures and tribes are so vastly different in every game being more primitive in older games to a bit more advanced now. Hope we don’t go into a multiverse monster hunter though.
Josh unknowingly gave capcom the entire premise for MH wilds lmao. Also spoiler: The datamine shows several extinct species variants of returning monsters, Rathalos being one of them 😂 man he really hit it on the head with this one. The others are an anjanath and an ebogaron for returning. There are 3-4 others with the extinct tag in code but the monster ID doesn’t match any known monsters for those.
Warning possible spoilers for MH Wilds, read at your own risk. I saw a video a few weeks ago that was looking at a "leak" saying that there will be ancient species still alive and are the ancestors of some of the monsters in wilds. I only remember them saying that Doshaguma will be getting one.
For future reference, don’t share anything that could even be related to a leak unless someone specifically says they want to hear it, even if you think it’s not true. People don’t want to be spoiled.
this is the healthy(healthier) kind of sexualization. if its against things that are never (if ur not mentall sick) actually be able to be a sexual/romantic obsession. I write this bc i know alot of people who are pushed away from the horendous and sad stuff said about Gemma. this also includes me, as i will not watch proob if josh sexualizes humanoid characters, like he did in the one blindfolded cotton episode. ik that it is an easy way to get views but it hurts alot of people. people who are extremely uncomfortable if sexualization of humanoids happens. these people cant interact comfortably with alot of communities and it would be a shame if monster hunter turns even more into that disgusting direction.
To those saying extinct is a dumb name, no you are dumb for not understanding a simple concept. They are “believed to be extinct”. It’s like encountering a dinosaur that was living in caves in the Amazon or something. Meaning they are so extremely rare everyone thought they died out.
Well much like the coelacanth was assumed extinct, it could just be a title to describe species that for along time where thought be dead. Only to be proven wrong.
I mean we have everything leaked , the full storyline, the monster roster, nearly all weapons and armor with pictures, all locals and there is nothing about extinct species
Candles burning, music playing, you and the Black Flame all alone. The door opens and Hollow and Cotton come in flick on the lights and say Josh what the hell are you doing!
Cotton is still blindfolded so Hollow has to describe the scene with as little spoilers as possible
HOW DO YOU KNOW MY NAME xD

Rex wouldn't be just Tigrex's ancestor but also other monsters like Nargacuga and Barioth. Maybe the ancient species could combine elements of all their future selves.
Wyvern Rex could charge like Tigrex but also tail slam like Nargacuga and jump on walls like Barioth
Ancient Rathalos could be a mix of Rathalos and Rathian and even combine elements from their many other forms
Ancient Yian kut ku would also be ancient Yian garuga and maybe take from Gypseros since they're similar
You can see the idea of ancient version of monsters makes a lot of happy sparks in my brain
The Wyvern Rex idea is beautiful
However the Rathalos and Rathaian combination already exist it's called Unknown
Honestly this may be a unpopular opinion, But I actually really hope the blackflame isn't a extinct species and just a regular apex of the region. Also I think would make arkveld more of a stand-out flagship, but this is just me.
im just curious, why do you care whether it is extinct or not? it wont impact gameplay or anything to important.
@@ryano699He already said it, so Arkveld can stand out even more as a flagship
Plus more cephalopod monsters latter.
No Josh, you have a point. Ever since I saw the flagship, I thought it looked like Gore. so I believe he is a thought be extinct species of Gore.
Arkveld is a flying wyvern it's not on gore's skeleton it's on like Steve's
*watched the beginning* okay i'm calling lauren on you Josh !
don't forget Brachydios.
As long as we can have fish we catch swimming in our room Im sold.

You can feel the desperation to get back to playing this game and his voice. The withdrawal has set in and everyone is suffering.

@@EdgarCastillo-c6j That would work too lol. You’re good
I’ll be okay with calling them ‘extinct species’ as long as we learn and understand WHY THEY ARE EXTINCT. And I don’t mean something hand-wavy.
The forbidden land to the people that live there are normal for them, what if the true forbidden lands where the ancient live. DLC
