The Return of Ultraman
As MAT and Sadora were battling each other in a foggy valley, in the middle of the fray, the kaiju Detton appeared. Identifying Detton as a threat, MAT attacked the kaiju to Detton's chagrin, after a brief scuffle with MAT, Detton noticed Sadora and the two kaiju began to fight. As the battle raged on, Goh decided to transform into Ultraman Jack and end the conflict himself. At first, Jack had a difficult time wrestling both kaiju at first, but after separating the two kaiju long enough from ganging up on him, Jack destroyed Detton with the Specium beam, and subsequently killed Sadora with the Ultra Slash.

Trivia

 * The Telesdon costume was reused to create Detton.
 * Originally, Telesdon himself was scheduled to battle Sadora, but due to the deterioration of the Telesdon costume during the filming of Ultra Fight, the costume was loosely altered in the face to slightly resemble a different kaiju, enlarging the nose and straightening Telesdon's eyes.
 * According to "Ultra Kaiju Encyclopedia 6: Return of Ultraman", Detton is a sibling or relative of Telesdon. This would mean that they are of the same species which would make a lot of sense considering they look identical.
 * Although not referring directly to the kaiju himself, Aide Toriyama of Team GUYS accidentally mistakes Zetton name as "Detton" in episode 27 of Ultraman Mebius.
 * Detton is one of the kaiju that makes up Beryudora's 1st support group in Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy Legend The Movie.
