History
The time of the Ultras has long sense ended and only Ultraman Tiga, with the help of the human known as Daigo, was able to stay alive into the modern age. What remained of this giant race was turned into stone statues, but soon a twisted mind would revive one of these ancient warriors.

After his huge Geo Shark discovered the location of one of the last statues, Dr. Masaaki Keigo used Daigo’s Spark Lens to unleash the power of this new being. Masaaki fused with the warrior and what became was not a force of good. Twisted and sick by Keigo's influence, the giant became Evil Tiga and began to attack humanity. GUTS, knowing this was not their hero, fought back to no avail, but another would rise up to face it when Daigo couldn’t: Gardi, the hero’s former companion. The friendly kaiju did its best to try and calm and stop his old master, but Evil Tiga couldn't fight his new master's command and pelted the creature with blow after blow. As the villain prepared to kill the creature, Daigo managed to recover the Spark Lens and summon Ultraman Tiga!

The forces of good and evil clashed in the streets as the two traded attacks, each canceling each other out. Soon, both Ultras hit each other with Zepellion Ray which their equal strength blasted both of them away. However, as battles goes on, the Evil Tiga proved to be slightly faster and more agile than Tiga. Soon Tiga’s energy began to run low, but as the giant of darkness approached, the hero jumped, followed by the villian, and each launched an attack towards the other. It was obvious that Evil Tiga missed his blow and Tiga's blow was able to injure his opponent. As the evil Ultra was about to charge and fire one final Zepellion Ray, Tiga acted faster by sending the villian one final Zepellion Ray. The beam of energy that fired engulfed Evil Tiga, forcing the vile being to disintegrate.
