Abilities
Physical abilities
Detragon used his foot to destroy a building after being formed and swiped at the remaining rubble. During his fight with Zone Fighter, Detragon was able to shove away the hero after being attacked and grapple the hero during a scuffle.
Missiles
Detragon can fire red explosive missiles from his four gold-fingered tubes. When the missiles detonate they make extremely large explosions. These missiles fly at a moderate speed, but can be caught by opponents and thrown back towards Detragon, as demonstrated by Zone Fighter when he caught both missiles during the 3rd firing of them. When first firing his missiles at Zone Fighter, the hero was easily able to roll out of the way.
Eyesight
According to All Kaiju Kaijin (First Volume), Detragon's eyes are actually telescopes and can adjust his eyesight at will, "from a range of 10 centimeters to infinity itself."[2]
Durability
Detragon was able to endure many blows from Zone Fighter, with the most impressive feats being a Meteor Kick to the head, and a two-handed Meteor Slice Chop which cut off his hands. He was finally defeated after being shot by Zone Fighters Meteor Missile Might, falling over and exploding after the attack ended.
Trivia
- According to All Kaiju Kaijin (First Volume), Detragon's energy is supplied by the life force of a capsule-encased child embedded in his lower back.
