Killdeer-Adder is a young royal representive of the Gryphon Empire. He sort of liked what Nyx did during her reign as Nightmare Moon, in a somewhat cool, teenager way, not in the bad implications of what she did way.

* OurGryphonsAreDifferent: Royal Gryphons are larger than regular Gryphons and have snake tails than regular tuffed tails. The snake tails are sentient in their own way. Gryphon tradition states that Royals have two names: one bird name (in this case Killdeer) and one snake name (in this case Adder.) He has a cousin named Asp.

Godzilla breaks free from the alien mind control and defeats the others. They are led by their Queen, Vortica. Interestingly, the Vortakk, in their first appearance they are controlled by a male character who dresses exactly like the people from Planet X in ''Godzilla vs. Monster Zero''/''Invasion of Astro Monster''.

----
* AscendedExtra: In the video games ''Atragon'' started as an enemy vehicle, then became a playable character in the second Japan-only Godzilla fighting game. It went back to being an enemy in Unleashed.
* CoolStarship: Believe it or not, she can go into space.
* FreezeRay: Has the Absolute Zero Cannon. Used to good effect on Manda.
* FaceHeelTurn: In the first NES Godzilla game and Godzilla: Unleased, the ''Gotengo'' is on the evil side. In Godzilla: Monster of Monsters the aliens have an entire fleet of ''Gotengos'', and the Subspace stages can have one as a mid-boss for you to fight for experience. In Unleashed, ''Atragon'' is under the command of General Gyozen, who succumbs to the power of the crystals and his hatred of monsters (because of a NoodleIncident involving Godzilla). When you play as an Earth Defender, Mutant or Alien, you must face ''Atragon'' several times throughout the story mode, culminating in a boss battle with the battleship in Osaka.
* MoreDakka: ''Final Wars'' gives ''Gotengo'' eight missile launchers and several laser cannons.
* ThisIsADrill: The bow of the ship is a huge drill, allowing ''Gotengo'' to move through the ground.

!Super-X / Super-X II / Super-X III
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Super-X_3193.jpg
----
* AttackReflector: Super-X II has the Fire Mirror, a diamond sphere that reflects Godzilla's heat ray right back at him.
* FrickinLaserBeams: Super-X and Super-X III. The latter has ''freezing'' lasers.
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Super-X and Super-X II.
* MoreDakka: Super-X and Super-X III. Super-X II mainly used the Fire Mirror, only using missiles in the second confrontation.
* PowerCreepPowerSeep: The first Super-X was able to defeat Godzilla by firing cadmium missiles into his mouth, neutralizing his atomic cells. But when Godzilla was revived by a nuclear storm, the Super-X couldn't use that trick again, and both combatants simply unloaded at each other until Godzilla finally brought down the Super-X. The Super-X II did amazingly until the Fire Mirror was overloaded by Godzilla's ray, then it faired poorly in the second fight until Godzilla destroyed with a final blast. Subverted by the Super-X III, which not only temporarily defeated Godzilla by freezing him but also landed the killing blows on Destoroyah.
** Bonus points for the Super-X3 being the only one of the three to survive it's debut film and not be destroyed by either monster.

!Maser Cannon
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Maser_9500.jpg
----
* FreezeRay: Modified for ''Godzilla vs. Destoroyah''
* FrickinLaserBeams: The signature ability of the Masers.
* ShockAndAwe: The original effect for the Maser beam was a lightning-like bolt.
* StockFootage: Only one new scene was filmed for them in ''Godzilla vs. Gigan'', with an immobile stiff model. Other then that, all shameless footage lifted from ''Film/WarOfTheGargantuas''.
* TheWorfEffect: In every movie other than ''War of the Gargantus'', ''Godzilla vs Gigan'', and ''Godzilla vs. Destoroyah'', Masers only annoy the kaiju they're used against. These are supposed to be intimidatingly powerful [[RayGun ray guns]], but since their main purpose is to show how ''tough'' the monsters are by ''not hurting'' them, we never get to see them be the BadAss beams they're alleged to be.
* UnbuiltTrope: Masers are first mentioned by that name in ''Film/WarOfTheGargantuas'', but very similar predecessors are depicted in ''The Mysterians'' (where they are referred to as Markelites), and ''Mothra'' (Atomic Heat Rays). In ''Mysterians'', the Markelites thoroughly avert the above mentioned [[TheWorfEffect Worf Effect]], being the primary weapon used to defeat the invaders.

!The Visitor
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-the_visitor_1916.jpg
One of four original monsters that were created for the video game ''Godzilla Unleashed'' and decided upon by a fan poll. The Visitor lost to Obsidius and wasn't used for the final game.

In their bid to retake earth, the Vortaak aliens have conscripted a new secret weapon into their arsenal of monsters. The Visitor is a feral alien creature captured from its home planet by the Vortaak with the intent of turning it loose on mankind. The monster clamps down on opponents with its massive jaws and stabs them with its crab-like appendages. The Visitor can also employ a Brainspasm, which shoots a directional shockwave from its pulsating cranium.
----
* AlienInvasion: The Visitor would have been part of the Alien Faction, controlled by the Vortaak.
* BizarreAlienBiology: A head that seems to be all mouth, four long hooked limbs growing from its spine, and it absorbs the alien compounds of its preferred food (space worms) to make its skeleton virtually indestructible.
* {{Expy}}: Part of The Visitor's design was inspired by Showa Gigan's HookHand and Orga's attempt to eat Godzilla whole by expanding its mouth.
* EyelessFace
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: The four large spines protruding from its back are also limbs, used to dig into the rocky mountainous surface of its home planet and to seize and hold prey and opponents.
* PsychicPowers: The Visitor would have had the ability to project a directional beam/burst of psychic energy from its cranium called a Brainspasm as its ranged attack. Seeing as it has no eyes or nostrils, it would likely also be able to sense its surroundings and other beings with its mind.

!Firelion
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-firelion_5658.jpg
One of four original monsters that were created for the video game ''Godzilla Unleashed'' and decided upon by a fan poll. Firelion lost to Obsidius and wasn't used for the final game.

A creature of myth and legend, Firelion is believed to have been the guardian of the lost civilization of Mu. The ruins of this once great culture were discovered sunken off the coast of Japan. Artifacts recovered from the site depict the existence of a great lion-like dragon with a fiery mane. This artist’s rendering is based on the many carvings and glyphs found amongst the ruins. Recent earthquake activity has opened fissures near the site which archeologists are eager to explore. According to the ancient images, Firelion possessed the ability to appear and disappear like a flickering flame, and throw fire from his tail.
----
* {{Expy}}: Of King Caesar and Manda, sharing the artificial construct nature of the former, the guardian of the lost civilization of Mu of the latter, and the guardian deity title of both.
* {{Golem}}: Similar to King Caesar, Firelion was made by humans. However, his life force is a spirit of fire inhabiting the sculpture.
* {{Invisibility}}: Would have been able to vanish and reappear, though if it was to teleport or for stealth is unknown.
* LivingStatue
* MixAndMatchCritter: A dragon/lion creature with a human-like gilded mask.
* PlayingWithFire
* SoulPower: A spirit of flame inhabits and animates its sculpted body.
* WreathedInFlames: Firelion's back, elbows, and tail tip burn with the guardian spirit's power.

!Lightning Bug
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-lightning_bug_1261.jpg
One of four original monsters that were created for the video game ''Godzilla Unleashed'' and decided upon by a fan poll. Lightning Bug lost to Obsidius and wasn't used for the final game.

An experiment to weaponize alien crystal energy goes terribly wrong when a tiny firefly buzzes into the focused energy stream. The firefly survives just long enough to lay her eggs in the test facility's cooling ponds. One of the eggs mutates and produces this uber bug. The Lightning Bug has hover flight, which allows her to unfold her wings and hover short distances. Her Armor Wings also serve as a shield from physical and energy attacks.
----
* BigCreepyCrawlies
* {{Cyborg}}: Lightning Bug is a genetically-engineered cyborg developed from a host of insect DNA and grafted with a multi-alloy chassis.
* GiantFlyer
* LightningGun / PlasmaCannon: It's unknown which type of energy Lightning Bug would have used, but it's a safe bet that its ranged attack and non-physical attacks would have used one of them.
* PowerLimiter: Lightning Bug's metal body contains the unstable energy constantly radiating from its body.
* TronLines: The green parts of its body would have glowed to show the energy running through its body. The green would change to orange when Lightning Bug suffered massive trauma or other disruption (likely after being knocked down or struck by a heavy attack).

!Space Hunter Nebula M Aliens
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NebulaM_Hunters-Roach_9567.jpg
Aliens that resemble giant, sentient cockroaches, survivors of a world that was much like earth and which evolved sentience after its equivalent of humanity killed itself off through rampant pollution. They came to earth with plans to wipe out the human race and settle there themselves because, while they could survive in the pollution of their homeworld, the planet was so badly damaged it was dying and would soon no longer be able to support even their existence.\\

!Vortaak

The Vortaak are a warlike alien species that appear in the Atari games. In ''VideoGame/GodzillaDestroyAllMonstersMelee'', Godzilla: Save The Earth and Godzilla: Unleashed, the Vortaak seem to be one of the galaxy's dominant species. They conquer planets to expand their civilization. But instead of useing their own advanced weapons, they attack Earth by controlling the Kaiju. Godzilla breaks free from the alien mind control and defeats the others. They are led by their Queen, Vortica. Interestingly, the Vortakk, in their first appearance they are controlled by a male character who dresses exactly like the people from Planet X in ''Godzilla vs. Monster Zero''/''Invasion of Astro Monster''.

!Gotengo / Atragon / Gouten
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Gotengo_7487.jpg
----
* AscendedExtra: In the video games ''Atragon'' started as an enemy vehicle, then became a playable character in the second Japan-only Godzilla fighting game. It went back to being an enemy in Unleashed.
* CoolStarship: Believe it or not, she can go into space.
* FreezeRay: Has the Absolute Zero Cannon. Used to good effect on Manda.
* FaceHeelTurn: In the first NES Godzilla game and Godzilla: Unleased, the ''Gotengo'' is on the evil side. In Godzilla: Monster of Monsters the aliens have an entire fleet of ''Gotengos'', and the Subspace stages can have one as a mid-boss for you to fight for experience. In Unleashed, ''Atragon'' is under the command of General Gyozen, who succumbs to the power of the crystals and his hatred of monsters (because of a NoodleIncident involving Godzilla). When you play as an Earth Defender, Mutant or Alien, you must face ''Atragon'' several times throughout the story mode, culminating in a boss battle with the battleship in Osaka.
* MoreDakka: ''Final Wars'' gives ''Gotengo'' eight missile launchers and several laser cannons.
* ThisIsADrill: The bow of the ship is a huge drill, allowing ''Gotengo'' to move through the ground.

!Super-X / Super-X II / Super-X III
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Super-X_3193.jpg
----
* AttackReflector: Super-X II has the Fire Mirror, a diamond sphere that reflects Godzilla's heat ray right back at him.
* FrickinLaserBeams: Super-X and Super-X III. The latter has ''freezing'' lasers.
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Super-X and Super-X II.
* MoreDakka: Super-X and Super-X III. Super-X II mainly used the Fire Mirror, only using missiles in the second confrontation.
* PowerCreepPowerSeep: The first Super-X was able to defeat Godzilla by firing cadmium missiles into his mouth, neutralizing his atomic cells. But when Godzilla was revived by a nuclear storm, the Super-X couldn't use that trick again, and both combatants simply unloaded at each other until Godzilla finally brought down the Super-X. The Super-X II did amazingly until the Fire Mirror was overloaded by Godzilla's ray, then it faired poorly in the second fight until Godzilla destroyed with a final blast. Subverted by the Super-X III, which not only temporarily defeated Godzilla by freezing him but also landed the killing blows on Destoroyah.
** Bonus points for the Super-X3 being the only one of the three to survive it's debut film and not be destroyed by either monster.

!Maser Cannon
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Maser_9500.jpg
----
* FreezeRay: Modified for ''Godzilla vs. Destoroyah''
* FrickinLaserBeams: The signature ability of the Masers.
* ShockAndAwe: The original effect for the Maser beam was a lightning-like bolt.
* StockFootage: Only one new scene was filmed for them in ''Godzilla vs. Gigan'', with an immobile stiff model. Other then that, all shameless footage lifted from ''Film/WarOfTheGargantuas''.
* TheWorfEffect: In every movie other than ''War of the Gargantus'', ''Godzilla vs Gigan'', and ''Godzilla vs. Destoroyah'', Masers only annoy the kaiju they're used against. These are supposed to be intimidatingly powerful [[RayGun ray guns]], but since their main purpose is to show how ''tough'' the monsters are by ''not hurting'' them, we never get to see them be the BadAss beams they're alleged to be.
* UnbuiltTrope: Masers are first mentioned by that name in ''Film/WarOfTheGargantuas'', but very similar predecessors are depicted in ''The Mysterians'' (where they are referred to as Markelites), and ''Mothra'' (Atomic Heat Rays). In ''Mysterians'', the Markelites thoroughly avert the above mentioned [[TheWorfEffect Worf Effect]], being the primary weapon used to defeat the invaders.

!The Visitor
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-the_visitor_1916.jpg
One of four original monsters that were created for the video game ''Godzilla Unleashed'' and decided upon by a fan poll. The Visitor lost to Obsidius and wasn't used for the final game.

In their bid to retake earth, the Vortaak aliens have conscripted a new secret weapon into their arsenal of monsters. The Visitor is a feral alien creature captured from its home planet by the Vortaak with the intent of turning it loose on mankind. The monster clamps down on opponents with its massive jaws and stabs them with its crab-like appendages. The Visitor can also employ a Brainspasm, which shoots a directional shockwave from its pulsating cranium.
----
* AlienInvasion: The Visitor would have been part of the Alien Faction, controlled by the Vortaak.
* BizarreAlienBiology: A head that seems to be all mouth, four long hooked limbs growing from its spine, and it absorbs the alien compounds of its preferred food (space worms) to make its skeleton virtually indestructible.
* {{Expy}}: Part of The Visitor's design was inspired by Showa Gigan's HookHand and Orga's attempt to eat Godzilla whole by expanding its mouth.
* EyelessFace
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: The four large spines protruding from its back are also limbs, used to dig into the rocky mountainous surface of its home planet and to seize and hold prey and opponents.
* PsychicPowers: The Visitor would have had the ability to project a directional beam/burst of psychic energy from its cranium called a Brainspasm as its ranged attack. Seeing as it has no eyes or nostrils, it would likely also be able to sense its surroundings and other beings with its mind.

!Firelion
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-firelion_5658.jpg
One of four original monsters that were created for the video game ''Godzilla Unleashed'' and decided upon by a fan poll. Firelion lost to Obsidius and wasn't used for the final game.

A creature of myth and legend, Firelion is believed to have been the guardian of the lost civilization of Mu. The ruins of this once great culture were discovered sunken off the coast of Japan. Artifacts recovered from the site depict the existence of a great lion-like dragon with a fiery mane. This artist’s rendering is based on the many carvings and glyphs found amongst the ruins. Recent earthquake activity has opened fissures near the site which archeologists are eager to explore. According to the ancient images, Firelion possessed the ability to appear and disappear like a flickering flame, and throw fire from his tail.
----
* {{Expy}}: Of King Caesar and Manda, sharing the artificial construct nature of the former, the guardian of the lost civilization of Mu of the latter, and the guardian deity title of both.
* {{Golem}}: Similar to King Caesar, Firelion was made by humans. However, his life force is a spirit of fire inhabiting the sculpture.
* {{Invisibility}}: Would have been able to vanish and reappear, though if it was to teleport or for stealth is unknown.
* LivingStatue
* MixAndMatchCritter: A dragon/lion creature with a human-like gilded mask.
* PlayingWithFire
* SoulPower: A spirit of flame inhabits and animates its sculpted body.
* WreathedInFlames: Firelion's back, elbows, and tail tip burn with the guardian spirit's power.

!Lightning Bug
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-lightning_bug_1261.jpg
One of four original monsters that were created for the video game ''Godzilla Unleashed'' and decided upon by a fan poll. Lightning Bug lost to Obsidius and wasn't used for the final game.

An experiment to weaponize alien crystal energy goes terribly wrong when a tiny firefly buzzes into the focused energy stream. The firefly survives just long enough to lay her eggs in the test facility's cooling ponds. One of the eggs mutates and produces this uber bug. The Lightning Bug has hover flight, which allows her to unfold her wings and hover short distances. Her Armor Wings also serve as a shield from physical and energy attacks.
----
* BigCreepyCrawlies
* {{Cyborg}}: Lightning Bug is a genetically-engineered cyborg developed from a host of insect DNA and grafted with a multi-alloy chassis.
* GiantFlyer
* LightningGun / PlasmaCannon: It's unknown which type of energy Lightning Bug would have used, but it's a safe bet that its ranged attack and non-physical attacks would have used one of them.
* PowerLimiter: Lightning Bug's metal body contains the unstable energy constantly radiating from its body.
* TronLines: The green parts of its body would have glowed to show the energy running through its body. The green would change to orange when Lightning Bug suffered massive trauma or other disruption (likely after being knocked down or struck by a heavy attack).
