Let's assume you are serious. It's a weapon with a locked element. You need to unlock the element via "Free Element/Ammo Up" Decorations or Armor skills.
In most cases these weapons will be used as elementless, which means you use a "Non-Element Boost" Decoration or Armor skill to further increase the base raw dmg.
That is something you cant do with Elemental Weapons.

Wait... Why would you think my question isn't legit/serious. This is my first monster hunter game.

Look around dude, 97 percent of the people on this forum are dumb as ♥♥♥♥ and eagerly jump at the slightest opportunity to be complete ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ over the smallest things. Not saying anything about the person you quoted, I'm just answering your question "in general terms."

Only cool Kids can use that. In order to be a cool kid you need to have https://monsterhunterworld.wiki.fextralife.com/Free+Elem+Ammo+Up to use those weapons. The higher the level, the cooler you are.

It's my first MH game too and is one of the many, many, many things I have written down in my notepad to google later. Thankfully this thread answers this, but I am surprised to think someone would not look at this as anything other than a genuine question. Trolls don't go to the bother of uploading pictures...

It wasn't my intent to sound rude. Just a lot of trolls around these days.

Try checking the tips section in the in game players guide from the start menu. It explains things like hidden element and maybe other things you're wondering.

Since I don't have one of those gems that reveal hidden elements, I'm screwed! Wish I wouldn't have crafted it! UGH.

In all seriousness I F'ing love this game.
