History
S.O.S. Tokyo! Godzilla's Suicide Strategy
Chamelegon was an alien mecha deployed by the Titan Aliens in an effort to eliminate Godzilla and seize control of Japan. Godzilla first encountered Chamelegon in the Japanese Alps, noticing the invisible robot fly overhead. After battling and driving away another of the aliens' pawns, Gigan, Godzilla was lured to a nearby city by Chamelegon, who sought to turn humanity against him by making it appear as though he was attacking. The military launched an attack against Godzilla, blinding him with a chemical dye and sending him fleeing back into the Alps. Chamelegon and Gigan then attacked relief efforts trying to bring food into the country. Following Japan's continued refusal to surrender to the Titan Aliens, the space monsters attacked Tokyo, but were soon halted by Godzilla, who burrowed from out of the ground after having learned to cope with his lack of eyesight. Godzilla proceeded to defeat them, foiling the aliens' plans of conquest.[1]
