<[Nickname: Blazing Black Dragon, Brilliant Darkness, Symbol of Destruction.

<[Physiology: Alatreon is a large quadrupedal Elder Dragon with a regal and imposing appearance, closely resembling that of a European dragon.

Its robust frame is covered in sleek, backward-facing black scales with a blade-like texture. Its chest is heavily armored with a large, spiked patch of hardened scales. The limbs are thick and powerful, ending in sharp claws, and its long tail tapers to a muscular, segmented end. Its head is characterized by a sharp, beaklike mouth and two large, serrated horns that curve outward. The wings are broad and membranous, with a pronounced skeletal structure that supports their large size. Alatreon's scales glow in varying colors, depending on the element it is actively channeling.

<[Abilities: Alatreon is an extremely powerful monster and the master of the Elements, possessing control over all of them (Dragon, Fire, Ice, Thunder and Water).

It can shoot heavy blasts of flame, breathe freezing air with sharp ice crystals, summon striking bolts of lightning, spray jets of ignitable fluid, and infuse its body with potent draconic energy.

In addition to freely wielding multiple elements simultaneously, their sharp scales constantly emit elemental energy, imbuing them with different properties. Its horns are seemingly responsible for much of its control over the elements, so its powers can be temporarily weakened by breaking them, or by dealing sufficient elemental damage in turn.

It has three modes

In Fire Active mode, it is immune to the Fire element, resistant to Thunder and Dragon elements, moderately weak to Water, and weak to Ice.

In Ice Active mode, it is immune to the Ice element, resistant to Water and Dragon elements, moderately weak to Thunder, and weak to Fire.

In Dragon Active mode, it has no immunities but is resistant to Fire, Ice, Thunder, and Water elements, with only a moderate weakness to the Dragon element.

In all its modes, it can freely wield all the elements. However, in Fire Active mode, it tends to favor more the Fire element over Ice; in Ice Active mode, it prioritizes more the Ice element over Fire; and in Dragon Active mode, it uses all the elements with equal frequency.

Alatreon's immense power stands among the pinnacle of Elder Dragons and it is regarded as a living natural disaster, capable of causing storms and widespread destruction wherever it resides.

Alatreon's ultimate move, Escaton Judgment, is the peak of its destructive power.

This catastrophic attack releases an immense surge of elemental energy, capable of annihilating everything in its path.

Surviving this devastating onslaught requires more than just skill—it demands strategic preparation and the ability to counter Alatreon's elemental cycles.

Alatreon stands above all Elder Dragons just like Fatalis, and is widely considered one of the most fearsome and unforgettable challenges in the Monster Hunter universe.

<[Behavior: Alatreon tend to be solitary and reclusive, generally residing in extreme environments isolated far from other life.

They are very territorial, extremely easy to anger, and will unleash their power with reckless abandon whenever provoked. This may be the reason why no other monsters live in the Sacred Land where it usually resides.

<[Habitat: Alatreon can be found in the Sacred Land, a special area within the Volcano, and it presumably has access to any point within the volcano when hunting for food.

It has also been sighted on Ingle Isle and even in underwater depths, within the abyssal trenches. It also ventured to the New World with the sole goal of confronting Safi'jiiva and destroy its cocoons, which is why it has been spotted in the Secluded Valley.

<[Extra Facts: 

1. Alatreon is vulnerable to Paralysis and Sleep. However, as an Elder Dragon, it never gets exhausted and isn't affected by any Traps or Meat.

2. It is able to muster its power and energy in its horns. At that moment, the horns will be surrounded by little sparkles. After a few minutes, it will absorb those sparkles and turn blue, before hovering around the area and starting a thunder and icy rampage for some minutes.

In this Flight Mode, it is difficult to deal significant damage to Alatreon. In addition, it is more aggressive and more powerful. Breaking both horns or making it stagger by focusing on the head when the horns are surrounded by sparkles will prevent Alatreon from using its true power.
