Useful Information

This subspecies displays different behavior compared to its regular counterpart, performing wild somersault attacks with its tail mid-flight.

It will also attempt to use its tail to sweep hunters off their feet, so it is imperative to judge which direction the tail is coming from before evading.

If it starts to move backwards while on the ground, this is a prelude to a powerful breath attack, so be sure to dodge to the left or right with good timing.

Its head and wings, as well as the tip of its tail are vulnerable, so focus your attacks on these body parts.
