- Not to be confused with Killer Chameleon.
The Chameleon (カメレオン Kamereon) is a Godzilla clone monster who appears in episode 19 of Godzilla: The Series, "An Early Frost."
Design
In general, the Chameleon resembles Godzilla, but it has several unique physical characteristics. The Chameleon has a very strange head, composed of three different appendages with claws/teeth at the end of each appendage. It also has a mouth on its chest, eye-like organs on its shoulders and lower jaw, and its default skin color is green.
Origins
The Chameleon was created by Cameron Winter, who recovered stray cells of Godzilla and used them to genetically engineer a creature to his specifications.
History
Godzilla: The Series
"An Early Frost"
The Chameleon was created by Cameron Winter using cells recovered from Godzilla, and was sent to destroy New York City in order to frame Godzilla and provoke the military to destroy him using a new deadly chemical weapon created by Philippe Roaché. Godzilla arrived to battle the Chameleon, with the latter having the upper hand thanks to a combination of its resistance to Godzilla's atomic breath and Godzilla being weakened by tranquilizer drugs that Cameron Winter had secretly fed him. During the battle, the weapon was fired at the Chameleon, which caused it to crumble into dust. Following this, the military allowed Godzilla to return to the ocean in peace.
Abilities
Durability
According to Cameron Winter, he developed the Chameleon to have high resistance to Godzilla's atomic breath, which was briefly shown on a monitor.
Prehensile tail
The Chameleon appears to have a prehensile tail similarly to an actual chameleon.
Camouflage
The Chameleon's greatest asset is its ability to change the color of its skin in order to blend into its surroundings or imitate other creatures (namely Godzilla). This allowed it to hide among the architecture of New York City.
Weaknesses
The Chameleon was easily turned to dust by a chemical weapon created by Philippe Roaché.
