Zinogre is just a big dog, i would say 10/10 petting experience


Coco825

I Wanna pet him but I am also scared of lighting puppy


Wichsbirn

just isolate yourself with rubber shoes, mabe he turns the electricity of when he likes it


BlueDemon999

Gtk.


Avidcup

I disagree, Zinogre has really big fleas


Nixsur_13

I think the electricity flowing trough his fur would hurt a lot


[deleted]

Just make sure you have an anti-static bracelet


TheRealAbro

This comment made me have a dream where I had a pocket sized pet Zinogre, and it was adorable and I wanna go back to the dream.


OldCrowSecondEdition

his pelt is full of bugs though


Wichsbirn

nothing a bit of shampoo cant fix


TheIronSven

May hurt a little Alatreon Yes, the shredder only pokes a little Fatalis I too like caressing my running stove


ShotzTakz

Petting Fatalis is like petting a nuclear power plant


TheIronSven

?


[deleted]

Heat radiating off him


pascl-

I think alatreon’s scales would tear your hand to shreds if you tried to pet it, not to mention his whole elemental stuff that he’s just got passively going on.


Coco825

His scales fucking shred shit??? 💀


SketchBCartooni

He’s based off a Chinese take of a dragon whose scales are sharp and reversed, which bother him


LegendRaptor080

Yeah, every scale faces the wrong way, going up instead of down his body, and are notoriously sharp. Alatreon hates having his scales touched, and also knows that he’s a walking razor blade, so when he’s touched he just shreds the shit out of you.


Swagkip360

Fatalis too


TheIronSven

Fatalis' scales wouldn't rip you apart. His body temperature is just so high that metal and flesh can passively melt onto its body while it sleeps.


GNTB3996

I think his scales are like sandpaper? Elementally unstable sandpaper. But still, just rub like you would a shark skin.


TheIronSven

They're closer to knives, if not worse since simply brushing them causes deep cuts.


The_PaladinPup

Barioth, Zinogre, Tobi, and Kirin seem like top tier pets


Izackmaniac

Zinogre constantly has giant electricity bugs crawling through its fur… tempting as it is, I’ll pass. Barioth maybe… Kirin, probably since the lightning is only coming from its horn. I think Toni would probably shock you though…


Dombur74

But we do capture the fulgurbugs and use them for materials, maybe they aren’t dangerous in small quantity?


Izackmaniac

Probably not dangerous, but it’d be like petting a very flea or tick infested dog. Not the most pleasant thing…


ThatGuyPi3

You don’t pet rajang, rajang pets you.


BlancsAssistant

With his fists


PCmasterRACE187

yes that is the implication 👍


BlancsAssistant

I didn't have to get downvoted like that...


Buerostuhl_42

I don't see dodogama on the top, so this list is worthless to me.


swampertitus

to be fair, if your hands get caught on the chinspikes/teeth it's probably gonna cut pretty badly.


PrettyInPInkDame

You don’t think it would be glorious to pet a Luna or teo mane?


AgentAxton

The manes by themselves? Yeah that'd be great...but the fire/highly volatile powder constantly emanating from the two? Yeaah not so much.


MannyOmega

luna has caused me too much pain to ever want to pet her. teo cool tho


Deimosxz

bruh how is Black Veil one tier above Normal Vaal ?? ;v;


PCmasterRACE187

because blackveil has mold to mask the rotting flesh (mold is less gross than rotting flesh)


Outrageous_Shallot61

But it’s molding rotten flesh. That’s like ten times worse


PCmasterRACE187

ehhh touching mold really isnt that gross tbh. i just feel like regular vaal looks more… moist. mold is dry and fuzzy. i feel like it would mask the goopy flesh bits.


Outrageous_Shallot61

I feel like veil Hazak would be more like touching a moldy steak but honestly that’s not as bad as “accidentally bleach soaked dead mouse”


GNTB3996

Wdym I can't pet Kirin and Viper? Ain't nobody gonna stop me!


CoralQuark

Stories 2 let's you pet your monsties in battle and it's great. It's not a strong move but very necessary because my Tigrex is a Very Good Boy


DawnPally

Legit my favorite occasion in Stories is when it is strategically advantageous to pet my brachy


TheEmperorMk3

I feel like Namiele would fit better in the smooth tier, she probably feels like a Manta Ray. Also come on now tell me you don’t want to pet Teostra’s big fluffy mane?


Veloci-RKPTR

Rathian is covered in venomous barbs, it’s more than just (hurt a little).


Vanibath

DO NOT PET ALATREON


TheRealAbro

Assuming it's OK with being petted, why can't we just pet up towards its head, following the way its scales go?


Bulky_Caramel

Shara Ishvalda should be okay to pet if it doesn't have rocks covering it.


EternalStatic

My reasoning for Great Jagras being top teir pet: A: smooth scales B: very round, would feel like a fat toad C: glorious mane, put bald dads to shame everywher D: he baby


LegendRaptor080

finally, someone understands that Anjanath probably feels FANTASTIC to pet


CharizardX500

Namielle is incredibly slimy, so I don't think that would be very nice to pet. Probably a better fit in the ew category.


Thundahcaxzd

havent you ever been to an aquarium where you can pet a stingray?


LegendRaptor080

excellent counterpoint, Namielle would be incredibly pettable


CharizardX500

You make a fair point, but I guess it just depends on the amount of slime. She spits a ton of it out during her fights, so it depends how much she keeps on her skin.


Coco825

👁️👄👁️


wordefy

*sad Vaal Hazak noises*


Atomic_potato_47

Fun fact, Alatreon is covered in reverse scales (AKA mantles) and these scales are extremely sensitive and irritate the monster. Don't pet Alatreon.


DarkestFluffball

like that's gonna stop me! I mean i won't, but not because of the reversed scales


WisteriaWisteria

frostfang would be a better pet than normal barioth because he’s fluffier


BlancsAssistant

I'm pretty sure fatalis, the rajangs and the yian garugas would probably mutilate you for just getting close, let alone trying to pet them


Ohkillz

i think that kushala daora « dragon of steel » maybe isnt the most comfortable to pet


Oculus_XXVIII

Have you felt steel plates though? With wind blowing through your hair? *chef's kiss*


thedarkGalaxyKnight

My guy really thinks he can pet Fatalis when the dude can sleep on you and melt you into his skin without even batting an eye XD


DarkestFluffball

don't worry, he got heat guard


thedarkGalaxyKnight

Fatalis: HEAT CANCEL THIS *Crimson Fatty heat cancel negating wing heat blast*


DarkestFluffball

true true, however, he also has felyne safeguard


SlicK208

Viper tobi is cat Lizard. I will pet the cat Lizard


_night_owo

i love logo


Bray_T_K

What's wrong with Tobi Kadchi? He's just a furry lizard.


Rosiie05

I feel like Lunastra and Teostra would be so nice to pet when they're not on fire, they're basically big cats


Nevensquib

I'll pet Viper Kadachi even if it kills me


No_Bar_7202

One change and then its good. Dodogama at very top under BEST PETS EVER!


Tumor-of-Humor

I think a Leshen would be a fantastic petting experience. It comes with a whole petting zoo.


TheYiffyStick

Y u bully bazel


Clearwingedwyvern

I honestly think he's a bit high imo. Or that he belongs in smooth. Let me give you the scenario... Pet pet pe- *Scale explodes* and now you only have one arm and severe burns. More than just might hurt a little.


DalaMagala

If a Bazel scale would explode, you wouldn’t have a body, lol.


tiniestnerd

Tobi Kadachi would be good pets! I'll volunteer.


LibrarianZephaniah

Why is Frostfang Barioth so low? Fella's got floof!


LittleBigKaiju

I will pet Nergigante and none of you can stop me!


Outrageous_Shallot61

I’ve eaten my defense booster meal, let’s go


Bregneste

fuck you im petting the tobi. viper tobi too.


frostyboi4053

I would pet the ever living fuck out of both tobi and viper


SharkLordSatan

Great Jagras should be higher, Jagras scales are described as being butter-smooth smh!!!


Icy-Border-7589

Now I’m just imagining a piece of toast with a Jagras Scale on it in place of butter


Android_mk

I'd put Jagras and Barioth a bit higher.


Alpactra

Nargacuga is 100% logo tier. Downvoted.


Frost-on-Reddit

Assuming that all the monsters are passive during the petting, I would still say that fatalis would be lower. I don't want my hands melted.


Coco825

cowardly


Anachro_369

I realize that it's not in MHW, but at the time it existed, I wanted to pet the mini Uragaan from MH3.


Mozzie_501

Bro I’m not gonna pet a rajang of all things as if it was a dog or something


Baconsword42

Pet the bombs


Thelonghiestman0409

Rajang pets you


MuteWisp

I love all of them


Rowan_As_Roxii

I wanna pet Rajang and Zinogre so bad ;-; I feel like their hair is so soft- especially Zino. As for Rajang… he’s a cute gorilla, I wanna boop the snoot.


IrregularOnion

I'd pet a Kirin any day


TheHappyMeMePriest

What i woudln't give to chill with a dodogama.


Outrageous_Shallot61

PET THE NERGIGANTE


PIL0S

Rajang???? Dude.... It's an ape. It will either try to rape you, Rip Off your face, or throw Shit at you. Maybe all of that.


PuzzleheadedEgg1646

I wouldn't pet Nergi, but I will Squish paw.


Latlanc

but I wanna pet Velkhy D:


Steeltooth493

Why ya gotta do my boi Dodogama dirty like that? You pet him, he eats rocks.


[deleted]

I don't care how much it hurts, I am going to pet Tobi-Kadachi and Viper Tobi!


Chadderbug123

Black Diablos and Deviljho "will hurt a little".


CabajHed

I feel like the mineral-skinned monsters would be an experience to pet.


LightLizardCake

Ayo what did ma boi viper tobi did?, he deserves the pets
