Sometimes called "Rare Subspecies" or "Rare Variants" by certain individuals, Rare Species (希少種) are an elusive group of monsters that are even rarer than subspecies.

The Monster Hunter World book has this series of "Ecology Notes", which are meant to be excerpts from in-universe books and research papers Had some time today so I re-edited the first one into a neat graphic where you can learn a cool thing about Great Jagras :3

Worth noting that this is one of the very few MH books that's been officially released in english so if this sounds cool to you I def recommend picking it up if you can !!

Talking about the new update as a whole. Also, how it compares to previous TUs and endgames youtu.be/oTtrVjFAHhg?si…

Variants (特殊個体), also known as Special Individuals or Special Species, are rare monster individuals. These monsters are the same species as [insert standard monster], but they have undergone some kind of change that differentiates them from other individuals of the species.
