Since this went tits up I'm going to unload the remaining ideas in my head for closure. First my own in the pic
Now for things involving other people's monsters
I got an idea for the berserk form. Take that tar fossil monster that one monday from a while back the loogamon-tigrex ghost for the legs and for the head it needs to be a solid thing with some yellow or puke green for what I'm goin' to post to work
Those three are the forbidden monsters, they aren't alive like the rest of the monsters. They only act without feeling or thought. They all share the gimmick of being uncontrollable and will attack everything randomly.
When you get forced to use them as a combo for whatever reason they combine a little. Like that green or yellow from the head seeps down and all their eyes change to the same color.
And we can have a decomposition thing going where the head is the start or cause of death (I'm thinking if it's that color maybe plague), and the body gaining the gross color represents mold and stuff decomposing the corpse. The legs become the end product of bone and dust represented by the shadow ghost miasma.
This can only work for the nature rider if we do that.
The chapter it happens in could have the shtick of the rider not being there because he's off-rampaging. If it's a silly thing and the monsters talk, they must learn to work together.
If not a side character gets the thing that makes monsters listen to him and hunt down the rampaging rider for a character arc.
And that two-headed plant monster should be the one that can transfer and/or eat statuses. Maybe make the heads snake and bat-shaped because they're both fanged animals but one injects and the other sucks to convey the gimmick. And the plants as a whole could be the ones who abuse statuses. That sounds like it fits as their M.O.
