Iodrome
The alpha monster that leads an Ioprey pack. They are larger and have a more prominent crest. Found in subtropical zones, they spit a poison that can sap the life force of prey.
The boss of the Ioprey, it claims the Volcano and the Swamp as its territory. It often moves in a pack with ordinary Ioprey, so fights tend to get messy. It moves just like ordinary Ioprey, but watch out for its higher attack power. It has no way to attack to its sides or rear, so as long as you stay out of its front it should not give you trouble, but it is very troublesome when it appears with a large monster, so take it out first in that case. Bring Antidotes in case you get hit by its poison spit.
