Bishaten looks sick and Somnacanth might be the ugliest monster since Khezu but it's still a neat idea to have it absorb sleep gas from an unhatched monster egg.

I'm really liking the convergent evolution on the new fanged beast, making it look more like a wyvern also is the water creature a leviathan or snake wyvern?

Somnacanth is a Leviathan according the Monster Hunter wiki.

The MH Twitter just posted some Somnacanth art and honestly, I can't be convinced that the final prodcut is better.

That hunting horn pretty much confirms Basiros and ergo Gravios.

God. Fucking. Damnit.

This, alongside Khezu coming back... it just kills me. My least favorite monsters to deal with, all coming back into Rise because why the fuck not? Fucking Khezu and Basarios must be crowd pleasures in Japan, so gotta throw them in. All we're missing is Plesioth and Cephadrome for the complete unified force of "WHY DO YOU EXIST?!"

Unless they revamp them severely to remove the BS and tedium, I am going to have a migraine if any of them are required hunts.

Cephadrome isn't that bad. Plesioth is a bitch though.
