History
Gagi was a monster that had slept underground for a long time from within an Amusement Park. It was disturbed of its sleep when two boys awoke him by examining its horn. The horn then fired a laser that incased the section of the Amusement Park that Gagi was sleeping in, trapping several people inside of it. From that point, Gagi used his whips to ensnarl children with his whips and dragged them underground to cocoon them for egg keeping hosts. Once he had captured enough victims, Gagi emerged from underground and began to ravage the surface by destroying several attractions at the park. GUTS soon came on the scene and tried to penetrate Gagi's barrier and after a few tries, managed to break through the barrier and free Gagi's captives. Ultraman Tiga came onto the scene to battle the monster, and after transforming into Power Type, Ultraman Tiga tore off Gagi's whips, and the monster and ultra wrestled until Tiga managed to destroy Gagi with the Delacium Light Stream.

Gagi II
Sometime later another Gagi was discovered, this time trapped in the Rainbow Underworld. Once Gagi discovered GUTS and a family that was trapped inside the Rainbow Underworld, it created a barrier around them, trapping them from within in hopes of laying eggs in them. However Gagi was discovered by the Rainbow Underworld other monster: Silvergon. Silvergon smashed through Gagi's barrier with ease, and even after Gagi tried to defend itself with it's energy beam and whips, Silvergon easily shrugged off his attacks and mauled at Gagi's throat, killing the monster mercilessly.
