History
Main article: Pteranodon Robot.
The brainchild of Kazuma Aoki, the Pteranodon Robot was a flying vehicle modeled after the Pteranodons he adored so much. Aoki brought the completed robot to the enclosure where BabyGodzilla was being held by the United Nations Godzilla Countermeasures Center and cared for by Azusa Gojo. Aoki let Azusa ride on the robot with him, but as they passed over Baby's enclosure the robot sputtered and suddenly dropped out of the sky, crashing in the enclosure. Both Aoki and Azusa were unhurt, though the Pteranodon Robot was damaged. Aoki later repaired the Pteranodon Robot and used it to exit the Garuda during the battle between Godzilla and Super Mechagodzilla.

History

Before Operation Wada Tsumi, the crew of the patrol boat Kuroshio 12 spotted dead deep-sea fish floating around one of the radiation-detecting buoys deployed in Sagami Bay, with the buoy's blinking light signaling Godzilla's presence. They reported their coordinates (35.03 N, 139.41 E) so that underwater decoy ships playing a recording of Godzilla's roar could lure the monster further out to sea, but the decoys were destroyed.

  • Kuroshio 12 is the same boat model as the minesweepers Shinseimaru and Kaishinmaru, painted gray with the gun and layout rearranged.

Otaki Factory Industrial robots

Work Robot
(作業用口ボット,  
Sagyōyōguchi Robotto
)
[10]
Godzilla Singular Point episode 2, Gamesome, and episode 3, Tigerish In episode 2 of Godzilla Singular Point, Gamesome, after Yun Arikawa and Haberu Kato inspect and take note of the damage that Jet Jaguar had sustained during its fight with Rodan, Haberu expressed that repairing Jet Jaguar, along with working on three industrial robots that needed to be completed by the weekend, would be impossible.

However, Satomi Kanahara, who had been listening to their conversation, informed them that Otaki said to focus on repairing Jet Jaguar for the next fight. In episode 3, Tigerish, Pelops II took control of one of the Otaki Factory's robots after Mei Kamino wanted to know if her apartment was safe. After taking control of the robot, Pelops II briefly looked around the Otaki Factory's garage before meeting Satomi, who though that Haberu or Yun was controlling the machine. After opening the garage, Mei sheepishly thanked Satomi for letting them "borrow" the robot through a speaker and left. Whilst on its way to Mei's apartment, Pelops II encountered Yun and Haberu being chased by a Rodan. Pelops II quickly used the robot's mechanical arm to attack the kaiju which allowed the two to escape however, the robot was quickly swarmed by multiple Rodans and was eventually destroyed.

In episode 5, Theorist, it is shown that the Otaki Factory had repurposed one of their work robots to upgrade Jet Jaguar, by removing the camera and mechanical arm, to fight the kaiju Anguirus.

To be added.
