Origin

Rathalos is a recurring monster from the Monster Hunter series. There are a number of Rathalos subspecies, and the one in Smash somewhat resembles the Hardcore Rathalos variant. Rathalos first appeared in the original Monster Hunter, and its description in Monster Hunter 3 states that "Rathalos descend on invaders from the sky, attacking with poison claws and breath of fire," which matches its attack patterns in Smash.
