"Stop pretending. You love strong, cool monsters, don't you? You love monsters that rampage and destroy towns. But people laugh at you when you said that. They say liking monsters at your age is juvenile, lame and stupid. I'll show you who's stupid! I'll show you! How amazing and terrifying monsters really are! I'll destroy everything! I'll tear down everything in the world! Run wild, my strongest monster, KING OF MONS!!"
- ―Hiroshi Kashimada
King of Mons is a Kaiju created by a boy's greedy desire for the strongest Kaiju. King of Mons serves as the main antagonist of the film, Ultraman Tiga, Ultraman Dyna, & Ultraman Gaia: The Decisive Battle in Hyperspace. Despite its subtitle, King of Mons is not a monster born from fusion, but its clay model uses parts "loaned" from Basiliss and Sculla, the latter two would be spawned at some point in the show.

Ultraman Tiga, Ultraman Dyna, & Ultraman Gaia: The Decisive Battle in Hyperspace[]
The clay King of Mons
King of Mons was a Kaiju created by the evil thoughts of Hiroshi Kashimada, an Ultra Kaiju fanatic who wanted to make the strongest monster to defeat Ultraman Gaia. Using the Red Sphere that brought Gaia into their world, and making his Kaiju out of a clay statue as a demonstration of what it would look like, Hiroshi's creation came to life as he made his wish to the red sphere, and King of Mons was born.
In accordance to his master's wishes, King of Mons immediately began to destroy everything that was in his sight. With no proper opposition in the real world, nothing could stop King of Mons's rampage. Eventually, Gamu returned to Tsutomu's world, piloting the XIG vehicle, the XIG Adventure, and battled with King of Mons himself. Although the XIG Adventure put up a good fight, King of Mons was superior in battle and the XIG Adventure was destroyed.

"Yu! Quick, make the wish. Make the monster disappear!"
"I don't like this world anymore!"

King of Mons vs Ultraman Gaia
Shortly after, Gamu transformed into Ultraman Gaia and battled with King of Mons himself. Just as it appeared that Gaia was winning, King of Mons spewed forth Basiliss and Sculla, monsters created by Hiroshi's co-horts while creating King of Mons. Together all 3 Kaiju triple-teamed Gaia and the battle was one-sided once again. Not giving up hope, Tsutomu found the Red Sphere and made one more wish to help Gaia. Granting Tsutomu's wish, Ultraman Tiga and Ultraman Dyna were manifested and came to assist Gaia against the 3 Kaiju. As Tiga fought with Sculla and Dyna fought with Basiliss, Gaia was once again left alone with King of Mons and soon regained control of the fight. After Sculla and Basiliss were killed by Tiga and Dyna, King of Mons was crippled as a result of their deaths, leaving him to be destroyed by Gaia's Photon Stream.

Trivia[]

Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Adventure NEO[]
King of Mons was a monster sleeping in a limestone cave at a planet where Alien Guts settled as their testing site. When Ai Asama and Kanegon ran from several Namegons, then fought a Nurse with their Red King, a piece of the robotic dragon fell onto the monster, awakening it from its slumber. Red King and a giant Kanegon try to fight, only for King of Mons to spawn Basiliss and Sculla in return. With the two monsters settled, Red King fought against King of Mons and its attempt at pounding the ground sent the latter monster falling down. This kind of attack would be known as Earth Crusher later on, adapted for the skull monster's finishing move.
King of Mons did not appear in Mega Monster Battle: ULTRA MONSTERS NEO as part of the manga's adaptation, instead it was adapted to the previous season, Mega Monster Battle: ULTRA MONSTERS, for its adaptation of Ultra Adventure. In it, King of Mons was a monster under the Reionics wannabe Alien Babarue's possession, jumping 50 years to the past of Planet Boris as they try to prevent Rei's awakening as a Reionics. The two were stopped by the unseen protagonist's summoned monster.
