Gatanozoa

Height: 150 meters

Weight: 200,000 tons

First appearance: Ultraman Tiga Ep 51 "Master of Darkness"

History: During modern times Gatanozoa and its brood awoke once more. The Ruler of Darkness sought to have Earth revisit its dark past. But unlike the last time, a titan stood In Gatanozoa's way: Ultraman Tiga. The Warrior of Light defied Gatanozoa's rule and pledged to fight for humanity. After dismembering one of the Zoiger, Daigo summoned his courage, and the love he had for the entire human race. Ultraman Tiga arrived to face Gatanozoa, but the Warrior of Light only had Daigo's light to power him, and he was easily defeated, despite the usage of the Deracium Beam Torrent and a modified Zeperion Beam in his Power Type form. Gatanozoa then used a beam which turned Tiga back into a stone statue. Bellowing in triumph,Gatanozoa struck the statue with one of his tendrils, knocking it down and leaving it to sink deep into the ocean.
Gatanozoa now stood unopposed and allowed its darkness to sweep across the globe. There was nothing that could stop it or the Zoiger from ruling supreme. But the Ruler of Darkness didn't expect GUTS to band together to help stop the horrific beast. GUTS had enlisted Keigo Masaki, ex-host of Evil Tiga to help with Tiga's revival. His plan failed, but caused the people to unite. With humanity taking up arms and uniting, their hopes manifested into the forms of pure light, and poured into Ultraman Tiga's Color Timer. Ultraman Tiga was revived and later confronted Gatanozoa in the ancient city. With great power never before seen, Tiga succeeded in easily sending the Ruler of Darkness to oblivion with a combination of Tiga's Glitter Bomber, two Glitter Banishes, Glitter Zeperion Beam, and finally the Timer Flash Special. The Earth and humanity was saved and the Sparklence disintegrated into
dust soon after.

Trivia: Gatanozoa is based on the Cthulhu Mythos deity, Ghatanothoa, whose name is spelled (in Japanese) the same way as Gatanozoa. Like Ghatanothoa,Gatanozoa has a petrification ability. Its role, however, as well as fact that Gatanozoa's resting place is the submarine ancient city R'lyeh, is derived from Ghatanothoa's father, Cthulhu.
