“ | Plants and sunlight - name a more iconic duo. But what becomes of subterranean vegetation that begins its life cycle deep underground? Rare Gnarls hold the answer. Their garishly coloured leaves and tentacles stand out in the dark, making it easier to locate one another and pair off before seeking a shared host. Host trees are similarly ostentatious, having evolved amber hued foliage to remind themselves of the changing seasons aboveground. Once they have fully matured and fused with an arboreal ally, Rare Gnarls are free to explore the sunlit lands above (or stick around the cavernous depths below, if they so choose). Though the cave-dwelling host trees have developed brittle, papery lenticels encasing their silvery bark, their limbs are no less strong than those hijacked by Rare Gnarls' Common cousins. Plus, they ooze some pretty tasty sap - try it sometime as an energy drink for your workouts! | ” |

Notes[]
- Rare Gnarls is currently the only Rare Quint-Element Monster to be released in a Core Seasonal event, as other Rare Quint-Element Monsters have released during the Aux Seasonal Events associated to their respective Fire/Magical Islands.
- The line "But what becomes of subterranean vegetation that begins its life cycle deep underground?" in its bio references the bio of Quarrister.
- While not too similar in color, Rare Gnarls' bio mentions strength and workouts, which are Rare Potbelly's main themes. It also has three heads, rather than the usual two of their Common variants, similar to Rare Potbelly. This continues the pattern of Rare Quints referencing Rare Singles.
- The eyes on the extra Gnarl are slightly smaller in game than the image in the fan kit.
- The teal and violet coloration of the parasites, as well as its bio mentioning that the lifestyle of Rare Gnarls directly contrasts that of other plants may suggest that they have undergone umbrasynthesis.
- If this is so, then it would be the fourth Monster to undergo such process, first being Rare Shrubb, second being Rare Barrb, and the third being Rare Edamimi.
- Rare Gnarls is the first Monster (not counting the Phosphoran Phlox) to release on a Magical Island and its Mirror counterpart simultaneously.
