Dodo Bird			In "Breakfast Fit for a Kong", Charlie and Mike were stared down by a large Dodo Bird after Annie and Dog abruptly left them to find breakfast. After Mike tried to intimidate it, the creature charged at full speed. They prepared to fight it hand-to-hand, with Mike significantly more enthusiastic than Charlie, only for Dog to crash down on top of it. Taking its neck in his mouth, he slammed it into the ground, quickly killing it. As Annie declared the bird breakfast, Charlie realized she used them as bait. The group roasted the Dodo Bird over a fire. Roar
Vine snake			In "Breakfast Fit for a Kong", a vine snake watched Charlie, Annie, Mike, and Dog travel through the forest. Later, eight of them ambushed a group of Irene's mercenaries who were trying to lure Annie and Dog into the open.
Giant Ant			In "Breakfast Fit for a Kong", Charlie fell down a long tunnel, finally coming to a stop in a chamber occupied by a long-dead Giant Ant, which partially crumbled at his touch. Mike and Annie eventually made contact with Charlie, but Dog was uninterested in rescuing him. Mike climbed down to retrieve Charlie first, followed by a bloodthirsty Annie after a living Giant Ant dragged its deceased counterpart into the shadows. An argument between her and Mike was cut short by the giant ant's approach. Charlie rushed in with an ancient sword he found in the chamber, but it shattered against the insect's exoskeleton. Annie then lied on the ground next to the confused ant and feigned helplessness, causing Dog to descend into the chamber and chase off the ant. Trivia Show creator Brian Duffield declined to say whether the Giant Ant was a Snarehunter, though he commented that "those were the vibes we were playing with."
Unseen glowing sea monster			In "Breakfast Fit for a Kong", Cap flashed back to the glowing underwater creature he witnessed one night beneath his ship, which sparked his interest in searching for cryptids. He described it as "playful, like a dragon or an eel." Trivia Show creator Brian Duffield has denied that the glowing sea monster is Godzilla. He also stated that it may appear in the second season of Skull Island, should it be made.
Venus Fly Trap Creature			In "Breakfast Fit for a Kong", Cap, Irene, and Sam came upon a field of massive yellow flowers, one of which revealed itself to be a Venus Fly Trap Creature and snatched Irene up with its enormous jaws when her back was turned to it. Sam cut through the flower's stem with a machete, and he and Cap pulled Irene out of its mouth with great effort, breaking several tendrils holding her in place in the process. She and Sam laughed at the irony of a botanist almost being eaten by a flower, then were surprised to see Cap soothing the dying creature. Trivia It is ambiguous whether all of the yellow flowers are carnivorous or the Venus Fly Trap Creature mimics the appearance of a harmless species.
Dog's father			In "Breakfast Fit for a Kong", Annie nonchalantly told Mike and Charlie that she and Dog met after their fathers killed each other. Dog's father appeared in two flashbacks in "Terms of Endearment". In the first, he used a claw to make and expand a hole in the hull of the beached ship that brought Annie and her father to her self-named island. In the second, Annie found his body on the beach after burying her father. Having heard sounds, she approached him warily with a plastic shovel, and discovered Dog, also in mourning. Frightened, she ran back to the ship.
Giant scorpion			In "Terms of Endearment", Irene and her mercenaries discovered the art Annie had carved on the hull of the beached ship that stranded her on Annie's Island. One scene showed her and Dog fighting a giant scorpion. Trivia A Titan-scale scorpion monster previously appeared in concept art for Godzilla: King of the Monsters.

MUTO Prime		Godzilla: Aftershock • Godzilla Dominion	Main article: MUTO Prime.
Giant lemurs		Godzilla Dominion	Godzilla recalled encountering two giant lemurs in Earth's distant past. The giant lemurs are large Lemuridae-like monsters that resemble ring-tailed lemurs with large spikes running down their backs. They also have scorpion-like stingers at the end of their tails. Trivia Godzilla Dominion author Greg Keyes intended for these creatures to be regular-sized members of the extinct giant lemur species Archaeoindris fontoynontii, but due to a "miscommunication", artist Drew Johnson depicted them as giant monsters instead.
Murderfish			When Dr. Ishiro Serizawa destroyed Godzilla's temple with a nuclear weapon to revive the monster, he also opened up a passage to the Hollow Earth. When Godzilla visited the temple's ruins, a swarm of aquatic creatures hailing from those depths surrounded him, acting as one. He roasted dozens with his atomic breath, but countless more arrived, culminating in the creatures' leader—their "genitor"—attacking him. After he easily killed it by tearing out its spine, its connection with the swarm was severed, and they descended to feed on its carcass. Godzilla promptly incinerated them all. The creatures are large fish monsters that resemble prehistoric fish, but with blue bodies. Instead of teeth, they have two pairs of sharp bony plates that form a beak-like structure, and they have white eyes.
Murderfish genitor			This Hollow Earth predator took Godzilla by surprise, sinking its teeth into his neck, but he easily tore its spine out, killing it. With the genitor's connection to its swarm severed, they descended to feed on its carcass. Godzilla promptly incinerated them all. The creatures' genitor is a large fish monster that resembles a Dunkleosteus, but with a rough blue body, pectoral fins that possess red undersides with three fingers, a dorsal fin that is made up of red ribbon-like flesh, and pelvic fins that are long and thin and also have the same red ribbon-like flesh. Its eyes are red, instead of teeth it has two pairs of sharp bony plates that form a beak-like structure, and it has a tail fin that also has the same red ribbon-like flesh surrounding it. Trivia Greg Keyes' script for Godzilla Dominion did not name the genitor or its swarm. Illustrator Drew Johnson took to calling them "Murderfish," a name which was jokingly suggested by his editor. According to Keyes, the monsters do not have any official name, and the word "genitor" is used as a generic term to describe the creatures' leader, similar to the queen of a beehive.
Various dead monsters			Before his battle with Tiamat, Godzilla swims past the remains of several dead monsters. Trivia Godzilla Dominion illustrator Drew Johnson included the head of MUTO Prime's original design in the lower left-hand corner of this panel, while the multi-headed monster below Godzilla was his first concept for Amhuluk. Godzilla Dominion writer Greg Keyes has stated that the idea behind the beetle-like creature, seen as Godzilla swims past the dead monsters, was to "suggest that it might be one of the classic [kaiju] without committing to it."
The Rival			Long ago, when Godzilla was much younger and weaker, he was driven out of his lair by a member of Kong's species. Eventually, the serpentine Titan Tiamat invaded the lair and fought and killed this aging Kong. A much older and more experienced Godzilla returned to reclaim his lair in 2021, driving out Tiamat and finding the Kong's skull left behind. The narration in Godzilla Dominion merely refers to this monster as "The Rival", which was also its name in the script.
Camazotz		Kingdom Kong	Main article: Camazotz.
Spirit Tiger			Main article: Spirit Tiger.
Hell swarm			The Hell swarm are large bat-like monsters with rough brown skin, fur on the back of their necks, small heads with sharp teeth, spikes running down their backs, large, somewhat shredded wings that possess orange membranes, small eyes that appear to be the same color as their bodies, and long spiky tails.

Giant snake		Kong: Skull Island - The Official Movie Novelization	After Kong attacked the helicopters escorting the 1973 Landsat expedition to Skull Island and downed the entire group, ex-Special Air Service tracker James Conrad attempted to get to high ground in order to get a better look at the surrounding topography. While climbing, he touched what looked like a vine, but turned out to be a 60-foot-long snake which tried to eat him. The giant serpent possessed a head as large as that of a full-grown human's, and fangs the length of a man's finger. Though it nearly constricted him to death, Conrad was able to kill it by stabbing it in the head with a knife.
Giant wasp			During their expedition through the island, Conrad's party encountered a carnivorous plant with several dead animals inside its maw, including a wasp the size of Weaver's hand.
Carnivorous plant			After Kong downed all of the choppers carrying the members of the Landsat and Monarch expedition to Skull Island, James Conrad's party encountered a carnivorous plant with several dead animals inside, including "a wasp the size of Weaver’s hand." The carnivorous plant's digestive juices were said to be extremely acidic.
Iwi painting creatures			The creatures Kong defends Skull Island from are more diverse than just the Skullcrawlers. The Iwi paintings also depict "giant reptilian beasts, one with three heads. A crocodile fifty feet long. Snake-like monsters, slinking from holes in the ground and snapping towards the sun. Web-footed creatures, spikes along their backs spearing bloodied human shapes, diving into the ocean surrounding the island."
Squid-like creature			A squid-like creature attacked the Grey Fox, trying to drag Warrant Officer Reg Slivko into the water. Hank Marlow threw the boat into reverse and injured it with the propeller, but it soon returned, attacking Slivko again. Lin San freed him with Marlow's katana. Once the creature had enough purchase on the boat, it raised itself out of the water, only for James Conrad to shoot out one of its eyes. After San cut off another tentacle, it retreated. The creature's tentacles are described as "a dozen feet long with fine webbed fins and elongated heads ending with small, suckered mouths." They lack suckers, and are instead "heavily ridged with muscle." Trivia Prior to being cut from Kong: Skull Island, the Swamp Locust appeared to have a similar role as the squid-like creature.
Margygr		Godzilla: King of the Monsters - The Official Movie Novelization	Monarch discovered Margygr dead in the Arctic, killed by another Titan. They transported her corpse to their underwater base, Castle Bravo, for further study. Trivia Unused concept art matching Margygr's description in the novelization is included in The Art of Godzilla: King of the Monsters, indicating that she was cut from the movie. She thus joins Megalon and Bagan as one of the only monsters to be rejected for a Godzilla film, then turn up in other official media. Margygr is named after a type of mermaid described in the Norwegian educational text The King's Mirror, written around 1250.

Rokmutul		Godzilla (2014)	Main article: Rokmutul. Rokmutul is an armored six-legged kaiju with a streamlined crocodilian body, and spikes on its tail most closely resembling those of a Stegosaurus. Based on this concept art found in Godzilla: The Art of Destruction, the beast would have fought Godzilla in San Francisco, with one encounter showing them fighting in the heart of the city and the other atop Alcatraz. Its relation to the other unused monster designed by Josh Nizzi, Pterodactyl, is unknown. Rokmutul would end up being replaced with the female MUTO as one of Godzilla's opponents in the finished film.
Pterodactyl			Main article: Pterodactyl. Pterodactyl is a four-winged pterosaur-like kaiju featured in only one piece of concept art found in Godzilla: The Art of Destruction. While it is known that it would have also fought Godzilla alongside Rokmutul in early development, its relation with the other monster was not explained. In the finished film, the male MUTO would replace the monster, who has wings as well.
A strange, dead monster			Main article: A strange, dead monster. A strange, dead monster appears in the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con teaser trailer for the film. The creature possesses six visible legs, with a long, apparently segmented body with ridges on its back, somewhat resembling a tardigrade; its feet have four long fingers each. Its identity is unknown, but it was solely shown to confirm that Godzilla would be fighting another kaiju.
