No, it just means that the hydra loses 1 attack but then immediately gains 2 more. It can use the attacks on it's turn. It's not an immediate attack, it's instead a change the # of attacks the creature gets that happens immediately.

I like this mechanic a lot. It's a lot more simple then the 3.X version of the hydra.

but why that cryptic: loses 1 attack, then immediately gain 2 more? Why not just +1 attack I can understand it flavour wise, but mechanically it seems strange... although it is quite a cool ability...

This is a case of "fluffing" the mechanics, the hydra does not gain one attack, it loses an attack to gain two, because the hydra loses a head and gains two. Its only confuse if you think purely mechanicaly.

Interesting ability. Wonder if it means first hit you are dazed, next round if it hits you are stunned, next round if it hits you are dominated or if you make one attack, if hit dazed and make that make 2nd attack, if it hits, stunned and make a 3rd attack, if it hits, dominated.
