Who reckons the Rahi (the tamed ones) should be used to help fight against the enemies of Mata Nui.b I mean, Tarakva could be useful against Bohrok, they could have done so much!

I think the tamed Rahi will help the Toa, not just stay out of their way. Think about it as the Rahi will want to protect their land, won't they? They should also know that their lives are threatened if they don't do anything about it, or the Matoran will tell them this.

There arent much tamed rahi, so...

Actually, all the Rahi should be tame. When the Toa defeated the aspect of Makuta which controlled the Rahi, they will have been freed from the influence of Makuta.

yeah, but whem they left makuta's influence, they became like any other creature on mata nui: wild. matoran could tame them, but they won't be easy to.

There arent probably many tame rahi out there, but now thay ALL have the potentail(sp) to be.
I think they will return in the chronicle to aid the Nuva at some point...

Not all the Rahi will be tamed as easlily as 1 2 3 eg Nui-Jaga wont be tamed all that easlily because they are teritorial.
But it would be cool to have matoran ridein around on them.

Moving to Theories...

Of course they will! I thinked of this before, and I think all Rahi, except for Manas (are Manas Rahi at all?) , can be tamed. And villagers will use them as their weapon against new threats. Same as Bohrok. At least I think...

That's the point...

noone has heard of the rahi after comic 3. and the rahshki aren't rahi. matter of fact, they aren't even associated with makuta, well, aside from being evil guys bent on destroying mata nui

if the tarakava can be tamed, then the boxor-force would double. i.e. the tarakava punch also.

Rahi could help the Toa-Nuva, but it would be difficalt to do. Mata-Nui is a big island, so there must be lots of Rahi there. And just because the Rahi have left the Makuta's influance, it doesn't mean that they are tame. Take a real tiger. It isn't under the control of some mental spirit, but that doesn't mean it won't attack you. Animals are wild. Taming the whole Rahi population would be hard to do, as some of the Rahi have been Infected and Kranaed. (The Kuma-Nui in B:MA).

Sure there are.

A Rahi is any animal on Mata-Nui. Rahi don't have to be under the influence of Makuta to be Rahi.

The Kahu is a Rahi...the Mukau is a Rahi...etc.

--------------------------

So there are TONS of Rahi out there that are tame. But the ones that Makuta took control of are the ones that are a bit more dangerous. And I don't think the Tohunga really want to deal with taming a Muaka at this point.

Well,I don't know if that is a fact but I would say that they are any large animal.I mean like bigger than a Turaga or something like that.But anyway of course there are some Rahi out there that are tame and some that aren't.If you want to really see some answers just look at their Bio on Bionicle.com.The ones that are tame can be very helpful even though they aren't as strong as Bohrok or Toa (duh).Like look at the Nui-Rama for example,they say Le-Koronans sometime fly them instead of the Kahu or Kewa.But I just wish we'd see Rahi fighting Bohrok in the updates on bionicle.com! Edit:Wow cool rank Torhu!

wow torhu, u sure get around...
and dude, torhu knows his stuff... i'd trust him on this

A Rahi is any animal of the Bionicle world. Simple.

Bionicle.com say that some Rahi have tamed and worked for Matoran, but I wander why we still doesn't hear the news about the Rahi(Yeh, I miss them so much, you know, quite sad when we don't have such charecter anymore...)?

Remember the tamed Tarakava from the MNOLG? That would be a good way to finish the Ga-Koro thing, it jumping out the water and beatin' the (censored) out of those Pahrak...

Torhu! Whoa, a Kal! Kewl!

If they want to tame Rahi, just get the turaga Onewa (pohatu's turaga) to use his mind control mask on the rahi!
also, the borok could be used to fight arent the borok supposed to be helping the matoran?
the borok are already tamed . each toa nuva could control a swarm of borok like an army(tahu nuva tanok, gali nuva galok, you get the idea) and the borok va could heal hurt borok and rahi(dont ask me how) and replace krana in the borok. the borok still have krana- they were never destroyed. the krana are good now, because cadok and gadok cant control them any more.

Well uno-koro has lots of usle krabs but they are not as powerful but they are rahi.

I recone the Rahi will help the toa

Rahi are stupid creatueres who probably will not do anything.

Yes the Rahi would be used to help the Toa- well more the Matoran really!!. It says something on bionicle.com that the Le-Koronians ride them along with kahu. It says the Toa have captured many for the villagers- and we know for sure they have one Tarakava!! BUT they are still wild animals- which is easier to tame a sheep of a wild Bull- know what i mean?

the bohrok will aid the matoran too. says so in comic #9

the bohrok will aid the matoran too. says so in comic #9

Yep, the Bohrok do help, I'va got comic 9. Daku the Warlord, don't double post please. Anyhoo, I still think tamed Rahi would have really boosted the villages defenses during the Bohrok raids, I like GoldenOnua's idea about the Tarakava too!

Hey I thought that too -POUT-

For the record, I thought about it first. Wouldn't it be just great if that thing just jumped right out of the water, taking on those pahrak kung-fu style? And then comes the Guard, the Kahu-Force, the Ussal regiment, and we have ourselves some PAHcakes for breakfast. (Get it? lol)

The Rahi aren't sentient creatures. They wouldn't know that bohrok are threatening their land unless they themselves were attacked. Nor would they have any idea of who the Toa are, and what their motives are.

I agree. They're just stupid animals. And even if they were directly attacked, they would only fight who attacked them, not the rest of the attacker's kind,especially not in an organized way. The trained ones may obey the Matoran, to some extent. If the Tarakava attacks, it'll be because of loyalty, since it was rescued first. It probably wouldn't listen to the Matoran, just save them. Which would be cooler.

i think that lego has totaly abandoned the rahi and i will be surprised if we ever see them again
