| “ | Known as the "Thunder Wyvern," Astalos can charge itself with electricity from the furious movements of its wings, tail and crest. In its charged state, the membrane in its wings take on a beautiful glow that only barely offsets the terrible nature of this monster. | „ |

Summary
Astalos is one of four flagships of Monster Hunter Generations/Monster Hunter X.
It is a dangerous Flying Wyvern which attacks anything it sees in its territory. Astalos' body is almost entirely covered in sharp, dark green plating, although it has a more bright-colored underside. Unlike any other Flying Wyvern, Astalos' wings resemble those of an insect, most precisely a Glasswing Butterfly's wings. Its thin legs have three toes. Its tail is long, making up almost half of the monster's length, and it has two pairs of earwig-like pincers at the tip. It has a relatively small head, with a large horn on top of it. Its eyes are green.
