Battle Tactics[]
The Gyumo and its variations have two attacks: The first is a charging attack where the Gyumo charges the player. It'll take roughly 1 to 2 seconds to prepare itself before charging and it will grunt while preparing so this attack is easy to predict. The damage this attack deals is immense and the speed in which it travels is quite high, but it is easy to block and counter due to the slow recovery. The second attack is a simple headbutt that can be safely blocked.
The best way to defeat it is to approach while having your guard raised. Wait for it to do the charging attack and attack while it's recovering. The Gyumo will flinch and it can be knocked over, so it's easy to land combo chains on it.

Trivia[]
- This monster can give you the scoop "Gyumo's Yell". To obtain it, take a photo of the Gyumo while it yells. It will perform this at random, so be prepared to take a shot of this easy scoop. Like most scoop-based actions, this has no damaging capabilities whatsoever, and is merely an intimidation tactic.
