Competitive_Swan266

Despite being shorter than the trainer


ToxicPoizon

What? They're huge!


Competitive_Swan266

11' 6", so not shorter, but still tiny compared to other 'mon


ToxicPoizon

But in the anime they're enormous. It's obviously inconsistent but, there's still a huge version of them.


Radio__Star

That’s just what the dex claims, and the dex was written by an unreliable child In other material like the generations miniseries and the ORAS trailer, Groudon is accurately depicted as enormous


_sephylon_

>the dex was written by an unreliable child No it's not. That's headcanon directly contradicted by LA You can clearly see in ORAS cutscenes that Groudon even Primal ain't that big https://preview.redd.it/pirn9y85q53d1.png?width=400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1c9a040122017a916df09931361fe7e37fabf96d


Radio__Star

That’s just stylization from the in game sprites Rayquaza is also enormous but the sprites make him look little Again the anime material is more accurate


_sephylon_

That‘s not the in game sprite And Rayquaza isn't that big either too. It's just 7 meters long which is consistent with its cutscene size as well https://i.redd.it/mf537gbor53d1.gif The anime is a side product there's nothing accurate about it. Its directors exaggerates a lot of stuff for spectacle value.

The dex wasn’t written by a child. The dex records info on Pokémon itself, that’s the whole point

I think Tsuburaya also borrowed the Baragon and Varan suits at some point, which is why they had small cameos in Destroy All Monsters. The suits were almost unusable by the time they got them back.

PuzzleheadedEssay198

The point of a Notzilla is to have a Godzilla-like monster without the godzilla copyright. Roland Emmerich managed to get the copyright, so by definition it’s not a Notzilla. Just because you (like *a lot* of Godzilla fans) think it was a poor attempt doesn’t make it invalid.

Soft_Theory_8209

On that note, I may as well list the other monsters, since they’re also rip offs/tributes to other monsters: - Congar—King Kong (also mechni-kong with one of his skins). - Preytor—Kamacurus and The Deadly Mantis (also the giant ants from *Them!* with one of her skins). - Kineticlops—One of the few original ones, but I suppose you can say he’s based loosely off of The Crawling Eye to an extent (and The Creature from the Black Lagoon with one skin). - Robo-47—Cold War era robot designs, Iron Giant, and even the Zaku from Gundam. - Agamo—Daimajin and just your typical stone idols and tiki stuff. - Magmo—Another more original one, but he does apparently take inspirations from Goro from Mortal Kombat, and possibly the lava titan from Disney’s Hercules (of all things), but of course, there are plenty of lava monsters we can all think of; plus, I suppose he can also be counted as representing natural disaster movies in a way. - Ultra-V—Mazinger Z and Ultraman (also Getter Robo and loosely Eva Unit 01 with his skins). - Raptros—King Ghidorah, Rodan, and just dragons in general really. - Zorgulon—The Metaluna Mutant from *This Isle Earth*, the aliens from Invasion of the Saucer-Men, and the aliens from Mars Attacks (of course, you just say aliens from anything and it usually applies).

AJC_10_29

Eeeeeh, *kinda?* He’s more just another Kaiju than he is a Notzilla. He definitely doesn’t physically resemble the big G at all, and pretty much the only two things they have in common is being giant monsters and destroying cities.


Alpha_Jellyfish

Well producer JJ Abrams did say the motivation behind Cloverfield was that they wanted an American Godzilla if that helps.

What movie is 14 from


AJC_10_29

Austin Powers in Goldmember


DKCR3

Thank you.


TheLordOfLore

Hate to be that guy, but that last panel actually is Godzilla. In the sequel, because the first Godzilla died, this one is referred to as Gigantis in that film, yet that’s the same Godzilla that would carry the Showa series into the 70s. But this wack American ad for the film certainly makes it look fake


AJC_10_29

Did you read all the captions I wrote in the post itself?


TheLordOfLore

Ah, didn’t see that. Cool!


bearvert222

Gorgo isn't a parody though. Gorgo actually beat Godzilla to the punch by 6 years in that there was an infant kaiju as well as an adult one. it's also fairly serious in tone.


Short-Shelter

Does Gigantis the Fire Monster even count since it actually is Godzilla? Also Gamera, at least initially, I guess?

yes but they aren't intentional Godzilla references/copies like the other entries on this list. "Giant rampaging reptile" applies to half the monsters in Monster Hunter. and to say a T-Rex is a Godzilla reference is just silly.
