- Rathian comes in green and pink variants.

That said, I think it'd be nice if eventually, we got the green/pink/azure variants of the mount too. Azure especially has a very nice hue of blue.
Theres actually other variants of Rathalos from other Monster Hunter games! You have Dreadking and Silver Rathalos which are even stronger than Azure itself. Honestly I'm happy that at the very least the mount came out beautifully, would have been nice to get a unique rathalos animation command for it but the quality is good enough on that end, especially when you consider how sad looking the armor is in MH terms.
