T-Rox is best only because its own breeding time is shorter than the other 3-element monsters'. That lets you get more tries into a given time. On the other hand, it is certainly possible to use the other monsters. And it may be that the odds are better, on each try, for the other monsters, which would make up for the difference in breeding times. For example, we've established pretty definitively that the chance of breeding a Ghazt from a T-Rox is close to 1% per try. In the best-case scenario where you could be playing the game every 8 hours, that would give you a 3% chance per day of getting a Ghazt. But if the chance of getting a Ghazt from a Bowgart is 2% per try, and you could consistently make new tries every 12 hours, that would give you a 4% chance per day.

I don't know if anyone has looked carefully at the breeding chances with Bowgarts, Pummels, or Clambles in the mix.

At any rate, you were saying "You need X!" when that simply isn't true.
