History
- Godzilla Island (TV 1997-1998) [episodes 96-103]
Godzilla Island
After facing defeat after defeat, the evil Xilien Zagres finally unleashed her ultimate weapon, Black Mechagodzilla. Flying down to Godzilla Island in the old machine, she confronted the Earth monsters and challenged G-Guard's own Mechagodzilla to a one-on one fight. During the battle, however, she cheated and soon took out the silver robot, claiming victory. Unfortunately for her, this prompted the other monsters to attack the Black Mechagodzilla, causing it to malfunction. Zagres was taken prisoner at the G-Guard Base, but soon after, a mysterious beeping noise within the Black Mechagodzilla prompted Besuke Jinguji and his alien sidekick Torema to release her to investigate. She escaped, and Torema entered Black Mechagodzilla and discovered that a bomb is source of the beeping. However, the device proved to be a dud, but the damage had been done. While Torema was distracted by the bomb, but she was not down for long. Right under the noses of Besuke, Lucas and Torema, she stole the G-Guard's Proto-Moguera and used it to finish what the Black Mechagodzilla had started. She ruthlessly attacks the other monsters and the base, and all hope seems lost. However, Torema was able to fix the Black Mechagodzilla, and she used it to fight Proto-Moguera and eventually drive it and its evil pilot back into space.
Weapons
The powers of the Black Mechagodzilla are much like those of the silver Mechagodzilla, but they are approximately ten times stronger.[citation needed]
