9	* AlienInvasion: All of them always want to take over Earth, usually by using kaiju or mechas to achieve that goal.
10	* AliensAreBastards: It's pretty much a rule for alien races in the Toho verse to be invading jackasses who want to take over Earth and subjugate humanity. The only exceptions to this rule have been the Venusians, who thanks to King Ghidorah are extinct (save for their HalfHumanHybrid descendants hidden across the Earth), and the unnamed aliens who created Godzilla in the [[Script/Godzilla1994 original script]] for [=TriStar's=] Godzilla Movie.

16
17	An alien race featured in ''Godzilla: Rulers of Earth''. Let's just say they have big plans for Earth.
18	----
19	%%* BigBad: For the first portion of ''Rulers of Earth''.
20	%%* BigBadDuumvirate: With the Devonians.
21	* CanonForeigner: They are the first original alien race featured in the IDW Godzilla comics, along with the Devonians.
22	* CrownShapedHead: The Cryog emperor possesses crown prongs growing from his head. It's implied to be the trait specific to the Cryog's royalty, if Rhizon's comment is any indication.
23	-->'''Rhizon:''' You've never deserved to grow that crown.
24	* {{Expy}}: WordOfGod states they were originally supposed to be the Space Hunter Nebula M aliens, but they couldn't get the rights, so they substituted an original race in their place.
25	* HighCollarOfDoom: The emperor of the Cryog has two frills on the sides of his body that give off the appearance of a spiked collar.
26	* HomeworldEvacuation: Their planetary civilization was destroyed by King Ghidorah in the past, rendering them an entirely spacefaring race seeking a new homeworld.
27	* NoHonorAmongThieves: They allied themselves with the Devonians to conquer the Earth but planned to betray them from the very beginning. [[spoiler:But the Devonians easily saw that coming...]]
28	* OctopoidAliens: They have a very squid-like look to them, with curly, tentacled appendages instead of jointed limbs.
29	%%* ShapeShifter: Wouldn't be Godzilla aliens without it.
30	* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: They plan to betray the Devonians when they see fit. [[spoiler:Too bad the Devonians betray them first]].

41	%%* BigBadDuumvirate: Initially, with the Cryog. [[spoiler:Then they get tired of them]]...
42	* {{Expy}}: WordOfGod states they were originally supposed to be the Seaptopians, but they couldn't get the rights, so they substituted an original race in their place.
43	%%* EvilerThanThou: On the winning end of this with the Cryog.
44	* FishPeople: They look a little like an entire race of Creatures from the Black Lagoon.
45	%%* TheStarscream: [[spoiler:Successfully, to the Cryog]].

48	[[folder:Dianii]]
49	->'''First appearance:''' ''Godzilla: King of the Monsters (Dark Horse) #5''
50
51	A race of alien hunters that came to Earth on the trail of the alien bat Kaiju Bagorah. After seeing their quarry being chased off by Godzilla they decided that the King of the Monsters would be a much more worthy hunt.
52	----
53	* OurGiantsAreDifferent: They have an average height of twenty-five meters (82.021 feet) which brings them closer to Godzilla's weight class.
54	* ProudHunterRace: Unlike other aliens who seek to use the Kaiju as weapons for galactic conquest, the Dianii prefer to hunt them for sport.

57	[[folder:Kilaaks]]
58	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kilaaks_3.JPG]]
59	->'''First appearance:''' ''Film/DestroyAllMonsters'', 1968
60	->'''Film Appearances:''' ''Film/DestroyAllMonsters''
61	->'''Played by:''' Kyoko Ai
62
63	Yet another species of aliens attempting to invade the Earth. They hail from planet Kilaak, a world within the asteroid belt. Their 1999 invasion in ''Destroy All Monsters'' is the last faced by Earth in the original Godzilla continuity, making them the FinalBoss for the Showa series. They're quite open about their plans right from the beginning, and are well-versed in MindManipulation for humans and kaiju alike.
64	----
65	* AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs: They take over Monsterland and Earth's moonbase right off the bat, using them as two of their chosen bases for their invasion of Earth.
66	* AmazonBrigade: All Kilaaks seen onscreen are women, but they do make mention of male Kilaaks.
67	* DissonantSerenity: They spend almost their entire time onscreen calmly explaining their plans, then executing them. They turn out to be NotSoStoic when their moon base is taken down, but it's a pretty subdued reaction of horror.
68	* FlyingSaucer: Their chosen mode of transport. Interestingly, they only seem to have one weapon; see WreathedInFlames below.
69	* HumanAliens: Though their "Women in silvery clothes" form is heavily suggested to be AFormYouAreComfortableWith.
70	* KnockoutGas: Have a prediliction for it; theirs is a thick yellow smog that's effective enough to take down Kaiju in big enough doses.
71	* LackOfEmpathy: They claim "certain sacrifices must be made" to build their new civilization, not caring that those "sacrifices" are thousands of innocent lives on Earth.
72	* MindControlDevice: They have an extremely powerful one on the moon, but it needs smaller relay devices spread across the planet to be effective. They're also the first aliens in the series shown to use mind control on humans, using even smaller relay devices on the victim's person (or in one case, in her earrings).
73	* SiliconBasedLife: They need extremely high temperatures to survive, and will turn into gray slug-like creatures if it drops to normal human levels.
74	* SmugSnake: The Queen radiates this attitude in all her scenes, always speaking in a condescending tone even as the odds start to turn against her favor.
75	* SomeKindOfForceField: They can summon these, and presumably use them so their human pawns can survive in the same room as them.
76	* WreathedInFlames: Not they themselves, but at least one of their flying saucers has the ability to engulf itself in flames for a form called the "Fire Dragon". It's hot and nimble enough to knock Rodan out of the sky.
77	[[/folder]]

79	[[folder:Millennians]]
80	->'''First appearance:''' ''Film/Godzilla2000''
81
82	A race of aliens that had lost their physical forms prior to ''Godzilla 2000'', now believing Godzilla's healing factor is the key to regaining them
83	----
84	* AncientEvil: Their vessel crashed into the ocean millions of years ago, and they've been waiting for a very long time to get back out.
85	* GoneHorriblyRight: They wanted to restore their physical forms with Godzilla's Organizer/Regenerator G-1, it mutated them into Orga instead.
86	* HauntedTechnology: Exactly what happened to them after their vessel crashed is a bit nebulous, but by the modern day, they’re still inside their vessel and controlling it, though their physical bodies are long gone.
87	* HiveMind: After obtaining enough of Godzilla’s genetic code, they combined their minds into a single gigantic individual, which was able to survive in Earth’s atmosphere. Unfortunately, the individual began to mutate uncontrollably, and their consciousnesses were warped into a single entity: Orga.
88	* HollywoodHacking: They can easily hack into human computers and databases and “drain” them of all information.
89	* InscrutableAliens: Compared to other aliens in the franchise, at least. They never attempt to make direct contact with humanity, are extremely hostile, and their goals can only be guessed at from their actions. After morphing into Orga, it's debatable whether they're even intelligent anymore.
90	* SealedEvilInACan: After their ship sank to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, it was slowly sealed within an enormous stone by oceanic sediment. A number of scientists came across it, and took it up to the surface for study…
91	* StarfishAliens: Their true forms are never seen, but the strange jellyfish-like entity they amalgamate into is implied to at least resemble them.

95	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NebulaM_Hunters-Roach_9567.jpg]]
96	->'''First appearance:''' ''Film/GodzillaVsGigan'', 1972
97	->'''Film Appearances:''' ''Film/GodzillaVsGigan''
98	->'''Played by:''' Zan Fujita (Fumio Sudo), Toshiaki Nishizawa (Kubota)
99
100	Aliens that resemble giant, sapient 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.
101
102	Kaiju minions: King Ghidorah, Gigan.
103	----
104	* AncientAstronauts: In ''Godzilla: Rage Across Time'' it's revealed that they were actually the Mongols (and the "divine wind" which drove them away from Japan was Godzilla).
105	* CockroachesWillRuleTheEarth: They came to rule Space Hunter Nebula M after the previous human-like race died out.
106	* CreepyCockroach: Another in a long line of hostile alien invaders to Earth and their true forms resemble man-size roaches.
107	%%* InsectoidAliens: Giant cockroaches.
108	* IntelligentGerbil: They're aliens that look exactly like human-sized cockroaches.
109	* InvadingRefugees: Their homeworld is gradually being polluted beyond habitation for even cockroach people, so they decided to invade Earth because it's similar to their homeworld before it got so polluted.
110	* TheShadowKnows: How their identity is revealed.
111	* ShapeShifter: It's ambiguous as to how exactly the aliens assume human form, but this is the most likely candidate.
112	* StupidEvil: To an extent as it's a FatalFlaw, as their overreliance on technology ends up overruling common sense at times, such as giving Gengo cigarettes with transmitters in them instead of asking for his home address, thinking the heroes escape in a car (not realizing it could be a decoy) and most fatally, assuming the heroes would launch an attack via the Godzilla Tower elevator, realizing too late that they just shot an elevator full of explosives that kill them all.
113	* TheyLookLikeUsNow: They wear flesh-suits created from human bodies to disguise their true roach forms, but only in the English dub. In the Japanese dub, they're using holographic disguises of deceased humans, hence why their shadows still reveal their true forms.
114	* VillainTeamUp: In ''Godzilla vs. Megalon'', they help the Seatopians with their destruction of the surface humans by sending Gigan over to partner up with Megalon. In ''Godzilla Island'' they also send Gigan over to help with a Xilien attack.

116
117	[[folder:Mysterians]]
118	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mysterians.JPG]]
119	->'''First appearance:''' ''Film/TheMysterians'', 1957
120	->'''Film Appearances:''' ''Film/TheMysterians''
121	->'''Played by:''' Yoshio Tsuchiya
122
123	A species of aliens from the now-lost planet of Mysteroid, which became the asteroid belt after their nuclear war obliterated it a few thousand years ago. The modern Mysterians are still suffering severe long-term genetic illnesses from the fantastic amounts of Strontium-90 in their bodies. They try to take over the Earth partly in a desperate attempt to preserve their people and society, and partly to interbreed with humans in order to repair their disintegrating genetic code.
124	----
125	* BitchInSheepsClothing: They initially put on a show of being harmless and desperate refugees looking to settle on Earth. Unfortunately, they start seriously overstepping their boundaries again and again, and the whole situation ends with them admitting they pretty much just planned on an AlienInvasion from the beginning.
126	* ColorCodedCharacters: Their leader is dressed in red, his underlings are dressed in yellow, and the grunts wear blue.
127	* DishingOutDirt: They somehow cause a few sinkholes to open up around their base during a battle against human forces, sucking down several tanks and their crews. It's hinted that the Moguera might have done this.
128	* DisintegratorRay: White-colored ones with a blue core. Their main weapons, they come in handheld and mounted varieties. There's also a massive one atop their base.
129	* ElaborateUndergroundBase: Very large, very elaborate, topped with a massive dome that can emerge from underground and retreat into the earth. The dome contains an entrance to the base, and itself is topped with a particularly massive energy ray.
130	* EvenEvilHasStandards: When the war starts, they're decent enough to ask humanity to refrain from using nuclear weapons, because they will retaliate in kind -- and given that their arsenal was enough to turn their homeworld into an ''asteroid belt'', that's something neither side wants. Even when they eventually lose, they simply leave the Earth and never come back.
131	* FacelessGoons: They never take their helmets off, the only Mysterians we see without them are already dead. It's hinted that the helmets contain some kind of life-support system. A small area around their noses is the only visible part of their faces.
132	* FlyingSaucer: Theirs are roughly the size of a fighter jet, and pitch-black, with three fins on the back.
133	* HumanAliens: Well, human with extensive radiation burns across much of their bodies, anyway.
134	* InvadingRefugees: Their home planet is pretty much obliterated, and their Martian colonies are about spent of natural resources.
135	* MakingASplash: They ''somehow'' cause a nearby river to flood the area around their base at one point, wiping out part of the army sent to attack them.
136	* MarsNeedsWomen: It seems their genetic makeup has been devolving for generations as an aftereffect of radiation poisoning after the nuclear war. They seek to make a race of human-Mysterian hybrids to keep their people alive.
137	* {{Robeast}}: Their tunneling "Moguera" robots.
138	* TechnicolorScience: The equipment and machinery in their bases is surprisingly colorful.
139	* WhenThingsSpinScienceHappens: Many of the machines in their base are constantly spinning, though exactly what they're ''doing'' is never actually explained.

145	->'''Film Appearances:''' ''Film/GodzillaVsMechagodzilla'' \| ''Film/TerrorOfMechagodzilla''
146	->'''Played by:''' Goro Mutsumi
147
148	A species of ape-like aliens from a planet that's progressively getting sucked into a black hole. They arrive with their superweapon Mechagodzilla in 1973 in ''Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla'', only to have their plan thwarted. They make another crack at it in ''Terror of Mechagodzilla''. They also return in the Dark Horse comics, and the IDW series.
149	----
150	* AlienBlood: Their blood is a grayish-green color.
151	* ElaborateUndergroundBase: Their chosen hideout for both their invasions of Earth.
152	* EngineeredHeroics: How they recruit Dr. Mafune to their cause; they offer to save his daughter's life with their technology after she's mortally wounded in a lab accident. It's heavily implied that they engineered the accident in the first place.
153	* HolographicDisguise: They have them in their first appearance (and in the Dark Horse comics) to blend in with humans.
154	* InvadingRefugees: Their motivation for invading Earth is because their home-world is gradually being sucked into a black hole.
155	* KillerSpaceMonkey: In their first appearance and both their comics appearances.
156	* LargeHam: Have a tendency towards this, setting them apart from the flat, emotionless Xiliens and the calm, polite Kilaaks.
157	* RedRightHand: The disguise of their supreme leader, Kuronuma, is imperfect, with some of his ape skin showing through his face as a dark patch behind his eye.
158	* ThisWasHisTrueForm: When they're killed, their disguises fizzle out to reveal their real ape-like appearances.
159	* YouDontLookLikeYou: They resemble green-skinned apes in their first appearance, but oddly, more closely resemble radiation-burned humans once their masks are pulled off in ''Terror of Mechagodzilla''.

162	[[folder:Space Amoeba]]
163	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yog.JPG]]
164	->'''First appearance:''' ''Film/SpaceAmoeba'', 1970
165	->'''Film Appearances:''' ''Film/SpaceAmoeba''
166	->'''Voiced by:''' Ichiro Murakoshi
167
168	A strange amoeba-like entity that took over the automatic Helios-7 Space capsule while it was en route to Jupiter. It sent the capsule back to Earth, where it splashed down off the coast of Sergio Island. It possessed a local sea monster named Gezora, and began a campaign of terror that involved controlling and mutating several local animals, and even a person. Why? To TakeOverTheWorld, of course!
169	----
170	* AsteroidsMonster: When Ganimes is blown apart by explosives, the alien is split into three parts. This just lets it take over more individuals at once.
171	* EldritchAbomination: It's surprisingly difficult to pin down exactly what the Space Amoeba really is. It seems to be somewhere between a BlobMonster and an EnergyBeing, with a host of bizarre powers and abilities. It definitely has the look and name of a Lovecraftian creation down.
172	* EldritchTransformation: Can do this to animals it possesses. It seems to be able to turn this ability on and off at will. It's hinted that it possessed a couple of crabs to turn them into Ganimes, and a turtle to transform it into Kamoebas.
173	* KillItWithFire: Extremely high temperatures are the only known way to really destroy the alien for good.
174	* MakerOfMonsters: Can possess animals and turn them into kaiju.
175	* MindHive: The original English dub has the Amoeba explain themselves as being "a colony of Astro-Quasars".
176	* PowerEchoes: The Space Amoeba's has an echoing voice, even while speaking through a human being.
177	* PuppeteerParasite: Space Amoeba's favorite M.O., it can take over people, machines, and animals, and even kaiju, since it's hinted Gezora was a giant before Yog even showed up.
178	* RedRightHand: After being taken over by the alien, Obata quickly develops CreepyShadowedUndereyes.
179	* WeaksauceWeakness: Sonar waves -- even those produced by animals -- can disrupt its hold on its victims. Gezora is forced to retreat after running into a pod of dolphins. Later, Kamoebas and Ganimes are driven mad by a swarm of bats. Obata is forced to try to burn every bat on the island in their caves.

182	[[folder:Venusians]]
183	->'''Film Appearances:''' ''Film/GhidorahTheThreeHeadedMonster''
184
185	The people of Venus, who were savaged by King Ghidorah in the BackStory.
186	----
187	* HomeworldEvacuation: The only ones to survive Ghidorah's rampage did so by fleeing their planet.
188	* RacialRemnant: Some of them conceived HalfHumanHybrid children after going to Earth, but the pureblooded Venusians are long-gone and their remaining descendants are indistinguishable from humans and don't even seem to be aware of their heritage.
189	* TokenGoodTeammate: They are the only aliens in the franchise to never have the remotest intention of harming or subjugating anyone on Earth. Part of the reason Ghidorah hurt them so badly was because they were a peaceful people unprepared to defend themsleves.
190	[[/folder]]
191
192	[[folder:Vortaak]]
193	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/EllenMcLain
194
195	A race of warmongering aliens from the ''VideoGame/PipeworksGodzillaTrilogy'' who plunder planets for resources. It's what they do. With Earth, they've found a much more effective way of conquest: controlling the kaiju. After their first defeat, their queen Vorticia personally oversees the second and third invasion attempts.
196	----
197	* BigBad: Serve this role in Destroy All Monsters Melee and Save The Earth.
198	* BigBadWannabe: Zigzaged in Unleashed. In most campaigns they're demoted to this status by Spacegodzilla, reduced to one of several factions fighting over the fate of the Earth. But if you play as a Kaiju from the Alien faction and beat the game, they'll win in the end and conquer the Earth for themselves as they enslave humanity. Unless you get the Titan Ending, in which case their own Kaiju will turn against them and destroy the planet.
199	* CompositeCharacter: While the Vortaak are an original race created for the Pipeworks Godzilla games, elements of them are taken from various other alien races from the Showa era. Their PlanetLooters motivation and general design aesthetic resembles the Xiliens, they created the original Mechagodzilla like the Simians, and them being Gigan's masters who the Seatopians form an alliance with is reminiscent of the Space Hunter Nebula M Aliens.
200	%%* {{Expy}}: They bear a physical and aesthetic resemblance to the Xiliens.%%Expy requires explicit creator acknowledgement.
201	* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Vorticia is the Queen of the Vortaak and the BigBad of Save The Earth and BigBadWannabe of Unleashed.
202	* LaughablyEvil: The Vortaak soldier in Destroy All Monsters Melee is not exactly good at announcing his race's intentions to conquer Earth.

209	->'''Film Appearances:''' ''Film/InvasionOfAstroMonster'' \| ''Film/GodzillaFinalWars''
210	->'''Played by:''' Yoshio Tsuchiya (Showa), Kazuki Kitamura (Millennium)
211
212	A race hailing from the mysterious Planet X which, just like all other alien races in Godzilla canon, have come to conquer the Earth for themselves (and enslave mankind on top of that), using mind-controlled kaiju as their primary means of invasion.
213	----
214	* BitchInSheepsClothing: In both appearances, the Xiliens put on a guise of peace when they show themselves to mankind, only to reveal their intentions were hostile from the very beginning later on.
215	* BizarreSexualDimorphism: In ''Film/InvasionOfAstroMonster'', all Xillien women look [[DittoAliens exactly alike.]]
216	* BoldlyComing: Sometime in the past, Millennium Xiliens and humans interbred, creating super-powered hybrid mutants to those that inherited these crossed genes.
217	* BreakoutVillain: Initially just a one off villainous faction in their first appearance, the Xiliens have grown to become the most popular alien species in the franchise to the point of returning for ''Final Wars'' and being prominently featured in other Godzilla media such as the IDW Comics, various video games and the Pinball game.
218	* EngineeredHeroics: In ''Final Wars'', they teleported away all the kaiju that were attacking the Earth and declared they had saved mankind, but ''not'' revealing that they had been controlling the monsters the whole time.
219	* EvenEvilHasStandards: Although in the end he still wanted to conquer the Earth and harvest humans for their mitochondria, the Xilien Commander in ''Final Wars'' wanted their invasion to be as nonviolent as possible and discreetly taking humans for harvesting. Unfortunately, his subordinate didn't have the same morals, [[KlingonPromotion killing him]], and taking over the planet by a show of destructive force and then intending to enslave the survivors as livestock.
220	* HumanoidAliens: The ''Final Wars'' iteration wear human disguises over their real bodies, which sort of resemble bio-mechanical FishPeople.
221	* RubberForeheadAliens: The Showa version, which resemble extremely pale humans with mechanical implants. All they have to do is tan themselves and they can easily pass off as a regular human.
222	* FlyingSaucer: The Showa Xiliens use them as their primary mode of transport.
223	* MachiavelliWasWrong: This is precisely why the Controller's more direct approach to conquering Earth failed. He assumed the human race would be completely subjugated by the combined might of the kaiju and the Xiliens' fleet. Instead, it only made the remaining survivors more determined to see him taken down, even resorting to [[GodzillaThreshold releasing Godzilla]] to indirectly help them.
224	* TheStarscream: The Controller in ''Final Wars'' kills his superior when he felt bored of the nonviolent invasion plans.
225	* ThisWasHisTrueForm: Downplayed. When the Millennium Xiliens are killed their human disguises messily burst open to reveal their true inhuman appearances underneath.
226	* TheyLookLikeUsNow: Both incarnations put on human disguises. The Showa version are very pale and tan themselves to pass off as human, while the Millennium version wear artificial human skins in order [[AFormYouAreComfortableWith to appear more amicable to the actual humans]].
227	* ToServeMan: The ''Final Wars'' versions intend to make humanity into their personal cattle and harvest their mitochondria.
228	* TokenHeroicOrc: The Showa Xiliens have Namikawa, who was sent to Earth as a spy, [[BecomingTheMask but came to sincerely care]] for her human lover and eventually reveals the Xiliens' secret weakness to him, resulting in her execution but allowing the invasion to be thwarted. It ''is'' implied there are other more peaceful Xiliens on their homeworld however.
229	* TranslatorMicrobes: The Showa Xiliens use a universal translator to communicate with humans.
230	* TheUnblinking: The only detail that reveals the Millennium Xiliens as not really being humans while they're disguised is the fact they don't blink.
231	* WeaksauceWeakness: The Showa Xiliens are extremely vulnerable to certain high-frequency sounds, which can paralyze them with pain.
232	* WorthlessYellowRocks: Gold is so common on Planet X that it's basically dismissed as junk. Water, on the other hand, is rare and valuable enough that it's their primary incentive to invade Earth.
