The Amaro mount...

I mean it's not a hunt mount (Orz lol), but I think OP, and to be honest myself too, is coming from the context each expansion we've received a free mount that we road quite a bit earlier in the quest chain. Especially for example the Yol from Stormblood (giant bird, hippogryph thing), and the Magitek Walker from ARR - both of which were very cool mounts. We did also get the Black Chocobo from Heveansward but I can't really recall if we rode that for quests or not (and legacy / draught > black chocobo), certainly the Yol and Magitek were introduced early on in MSQ content first like the Amaro though.

The black chocobos were the only domesticated ones that were bred and trained to fly. The company chocobo had to unlock its flight through a quest chain.

I only added the legacy / draught part as a reason why I couldn't remember much about them :P, since it's a breed of bird that I already have a better (imo) bird for. "here's your new black chocobo" me: "but.. I have a huge draught chocobo and a legacy bird... I will remember you hardly dear black chocobo" lol. I remember Yol and Magitek because they're both quite neat, similarly I think Amaro is neat (and unique to my list of owned mounts).

I did know they were the first flying mount (specially trained to fly), but "what we did with them".. no memory lol.
