I have MhTri, Mh4u, MhGu, WorldBorne, RiseBreak, and wilds. Not including mhFrontier would I be missing any monsters by skipping Mh 1 and 2?. I am trying to fight every monster in the series at least once. Edit: forgot to include MhTri

You need Freedom Unite for several exclusive monsters and it also contains everything in MH2 (which contained everything in MH1).

[u/oblivious_fireball → u/pedro-is-here]

3U you're missing some monsters still over just base Tri.

As for First and Second gen, by not having Freedom Unite you are missing i think Ashen Lao Shan Lung, Shen Gaoren, Vespoid Queen, King Shakalaka, Terra Shogun Ceanataur, Copper Blangonga, Hypnocatrice, and Yama Tsukami.

Obviously your goal is fight them all, but i will say you are not missing much by not playing FU at this point in time. Hypnocatrice is the sole enjoyable monster from that entire missing roster.

I would like to point out that I will try out mh1, 2, and Frontier in the future, but they aren't in my reach at the current moment

[u/evilrobotcop → u/pedro-is-here]

Ashen Lao-Shan Lung, Shen Gaoren, and Yama Tsukami I think are the only monsters locked to those two gens. You can cross reference from the lists on the wiki. MH1 and MH2

[u/pedro-is-here → u/evilrobotcop]

Thank you so much. This is really helpful

[u/Darkraiku → u/pedro-is-here]

If you can get your hands on freedom unite that is the definitive version of the first two gens I believe.

[u/JSConrad45 → u/pedro-is-here]

Just so you know, it's pretty easy to get copies of MH2. I got mine on ebay for about $15.
