History
Litolumalus was an ancient monster who had been created from built-up exhaust smoke from vehicles from over the decades. Since his birth the monster had been emitting the same type of smoke to make his lair more suitable for himself. Litolumalus was first discovered by four kids, whom had disturbed his resting spot. However because the children were notorious for being delinquent and troublesome in their village, no one would believe them. Angered from not being trusted, the four kids went off to find the monster themselves and returned to the sight of the monsters lair. The kids then foolishly awoken the monster with some firecrackers and Litolumalus proceeded to go on a rampage, destroying what was in his sights with his acid. Once GUTS became aware of the monster's presence, Horii was quick to produce antidote to Litolumalus's acid while the rest of GUTS managed to lure the monster away from the village he was in. When Litolumalus found the kids that disturbed him, hiding inside of a GUTS vehicle, Litolumalus tried to attack them, but was stopped by the lucky appearance of Ultraman Tiga. Once Tiga transformed into his Sky-Type, Litolumalus and the ultra were evenly matched in battle until Horii was able to finish the antidote, personally named "Horii's Special Special Antidote Missile", and fired it at the monster neutralizing his acid. With Litolumalus now powerless, Tiga was able to destroy him with the Ranbalt Light-Bullet.
