Extreme Trial mounts
This is a list of the Extreme Trial mounts for the base game (A Realm Reborn) as well as each of the expansions. Each expansion has seven similarly themed mounts that can be attained as a drop in their associated Extreme Trials. There is also an eighth mount that can only be attained by doing a quest that is unlocked after obtaining all of the extreme trial mounts for a given expansion.
When a mount is newly added, it drops at a low rate from its corresponding extreme trial and can be rolled on. It is estimated that the rate is approximately 5% (1 in 20). The drop rate typically increases twice in later patches. From Heavensward onwards, players may exchange 99 of the guaranteed totem from the trial for the mount summoning item. However, players must rely on direct drops when a trial is first released: the totem purchase option is not added until several months after the trial is released (specifically patch x.2 for the x.0 trials, patch x.3 for the x.1 trial, patch x.4 for the x.2 trial, patch x.5 for the x.3 trial, patch x.55 for the x.4 trial, and patch x.58 for the x.5 trial).
All mounts from previous expansions can be obtained by farming the relevant extreme trial using an Unrestricted Party (unsynced). There is no reason to farm them with level sync enabled, as the drop rate is unaffected.

Kirin
Upon obtaining all of the above mounts the quest to get the Kirin becomes available.

Nightmare
The Nightmare mount shares a model with the other mounts in this category and is gotten in a similar manner, but it is not directly related to them nor is it related to obtaining the Kirin.
This sets it apart from the extreme trial mounts in the expansions.
The Nightmare can be attained as a drop from any of 3 Extreme Trials. This means it can potentially be dropped alongside the other mount from that trial.

Lanner Mounts (Heavensward)
From Heavensward onward, the Extreme Trial that drops the mount will also drop a totem or similar item.

Rathalos is a mount from the crossover Collaboration Event The Hunt For Rathalos. It can either drop from the extreme version of its trial or be purchased from Smithy in Kugane (9.7, 8.9).
