A total of three Amiibo were created based on characters from MHS2, including Ena, Razewing Rathalos, and Tsukino. Scanning in these figures will give you layered armor, which changes your character’s appearance without altering their armor stats. Here’s what you get when you scan in each figure:
Ena
Scanning the Ena Amiibo can unlock two sets of layered armor that make you look like Ena and Kyle. You can wear either set regardless of your character’s gender.
Razewing Rathalos
Scanning the Razewing Rathalos Amiibo gives you layered armor based on the set that Red wears. So if you want to cosplay as your character’s grandfather, this is the way you can do it.
Tsukino
Scanning the Tsukino Amiibo gives you layered armor that makes you look like her. Honestly, it’s quite humorous how ridiculous it looks, but it’s your only ticket to resemble the cool, calm, and collected Felyne ninja.

But on the off chance you get your hands on these now rare figures, you can use them without issue, as Amiibo are region-free.
As of this writing, details about which layered armor sets you get from each Amiibo are scarce, mostly because these figures are not widely available in the West. These Amiibo will nab you a layered armor set based on their respective character’s appearance or monster. Regardless, here’s what we know each Amiibo will get you:
