Ultraman Tregear

"I am Ultraman Tregear. I have come to realize your dream."

- Self introduction.

Ultraman Tregear (ウルトラマントレギア) is the main antagonist Ultra Warrior of Ultraman R/B The Movie and returning in Ultraman Taiga.

Past
Tregear was a scientist from Nebula M78 (Land of Light), and a close friend of Ultraman Taro before he fell to the dark side. Long before the events of Ultraman R/B, Ultraman Tregear was stated to be responsible for the destruction of several planets. The way he achieved this was by meddling with hearts of said planets' inhabitants.

Over 1,300 years ago, Tregear had altered the DNA of Reugosite, forcing the peaceful creature to go rampant, leading to its first battle with the three siblings from Planet Sanja.

Ultraman R/B The Movie: Select! The Crystal of Bond
Tregear is a mysterious warrior who seemed to have appeared from nowhere. His fighting skills are as strong as those of Ultraman Groob and Geed Ultimate Final. Tregear contacts Yukio Toi, a friend of Katsumi Minato, and helps him realize his dream of destroying the world he hates, corrupting him into Snake Darkness in the process.

Ultraman Taiga
Tregear will reappear in this series, as the arch-nemesis of Ultraman Taiga and relentlessly targets him. While he's hunting Taiga in the Earth, he assumes his human identity who named itself as "Kirisaki".

Personality
Not much known about Tregear's personality, but it is shown that he is a sadistic and cunning manipulator and/or trickster who decieves people by offering to "fulfill their dreams" as demonstrated on Yukio Toi - he had used the man's hatred towards the world to turn him into the kaiju Snake Darkness.

Ultraman New Generation Chronicle

Trivia

 * Along with Chaos Ultraman, Tregear is the second evil Ultra Warrior to feature blue coloring on his body.
 * In an interview with Yuma Uchida, he mentions that his first voice over as Tregear was the first commercial. It wasn't until the actual recording of the film that Yuma managed to capture the impression of his character, which he portray as someone who is "neither good nor evil".
 * From the pamphlet of Ultraman R/B the Movie, Masayoshi Takesue (the main director of Ultraman R/B) confirmed that Tregear was going to be the next recurring Evil Ultra Warrior, succeeding Ultraman Belial.
 * While Masayoshi's words were proven true, they were taken almost too literally, giving Tregear an origin which very similar to Belial's (both were former residents of Land of Light and were estranged from Father of Ultra and Taro).
