Talk:Master Ceadeus 27 Rathian and Rathalos Subs Theory/@comment-4212769-20140626100123/@comment-4212769-20140628114346

First off, read my comment in the thread above. That's why I think they get stronger than the normal ones.

And second, they don't push out each other because the stronger ones are rarer and also may mate with each other still as they are the same species. I mean, Black Panthers can still mate although they are mutations and also mate with normal Leopards. The same can and will go with the Raths. I'm sure they prefer another one of the same mutation but would also accept one of another mutation. Additionally I think that single Rathalos/Rathian have a much smaller territory than a pair which would mean, there could be more Rathalos in the Volcano than Rathalos and Rathian pairs in the Deserted Island of the same area.

And a little trip to the fishes, there is a fish called "Blue Dempsey" that is a mutation of Rocio octofasciata, called "Jack Dempsey". The normal ones are known in the aquaristic for a long time. These Blue Dempseys are special as when they mate with each other only crippled fishes are born, they have to mate with a normal Jack Dempsey with genes of the blue mutation to procreate healthy youngs of the mutation. I don't think the same applies to Raths but it's a interesting lecture about mutations.
