Summary

A massive dinosaur emerged from the coast of Japan and went on a destructive rampage, and gained the power of radiation once hit by the Japanese army’s nuclear bomb. Dubbed Godzilla by scientists, this powerful kaiju traveled across the world and indiscriminately destroyed anything in its path, its impact felt across the world throughout the events of Godzilla: Kingdom of Monsters.

Years later, during the events of Godzilla: Ongoing, the King of the Monsters must ally himself with kaiju he had fought in the past against extra-terrestrial beings that threaten to bring an end to Earth.

Godzilla once again returned in Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, this time protecting Earth from the invading alien races Devonians, Kryogs and their living weapons, the Trilopods, with the help of allies he had never encountered before.

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Longevity, Immortality (Types 2, and 3), Large Size (Type 2), Minor Earth Manipulation (Can cause earthquakes), Nuclear Energy Absorption (Shown here), Enhanced Senses (Keen sense of smell), Stealth Mastery, Self-Sustenance (Types 1 and 2; Can survive in the pressure of the bottom of the ocean and without food for long periods of time), Radioactive emissions (Fish die in his presence) and Natural Weaponry (Teeth and claws)

Same as before, with Instinctive Reaction (Struck a trilopod without having any sensory clue it was there), Healing (By absorbing radiation), Rage Power (Tends to get stronger with rage and will use rage to tap into more power), Energy Manipulation, Energy Projection and Energy Absorption in the form of Atomic, Breath Attack (Shown here), Matter Manipulation (Disintegrated a number of things), Expert Hand-To-Hand fighter, Aura, limited Flight, Regeneration (At least Low-Mid in combat Regenerated a deep stabbing in his abdomen caused by Destoroyah in a few seconds. Possibly High-Mid over time; Orga who absorbed G-Cells was able to regenerate from being being blown by Jet Jaguar), Vibration Manipulation (Through mass), Statistics Amplification/Damage Boost (With certain techniques, rage power and energy absorption), Accelerated Development, Adaptation and Reactive Power Level (Shown during the fight with Kaiser Ghidorah, Godzilla just kept growing stronger the longer he fought), Attack Reflection (Smacked away an energy blast with his tail), Sound Manipulation/Summoning (Can attract other kaiju to his location with his roar), High Pain tolerance (As showed here), Danmaku (Can fire several beams out at once) and Life Force Absorption/Transformation (Godzilla absorbed the life-force of 13 kaiju to obtain a power that far surpasses Magita)

All prior abilities highly enhanced, plus Increased power, Burning aura and Extreme heat

Resistance to Mind Manipulation, Heat Manipulation (Resisted standing in lava, in which temperature levels are over 1,200 degrees Celsius), Matter Manipulation (Resisted Micro-Oxygen, which breaks down most matter on a molecular level), Acid Manipulation (Tanked Hedorah's acid and acidic body), Sound Manipulation (Resisted a sonic dissonance), Gravity Manipulation (Kaiser Ghidorah's blasts can make you float and control gravity on a foe, shown by how he threw around Godzilla with them) and Deconstruction/Absolute Zero temperatures (Resisted Kiryu's Absolute Zero Cannon)

Attack Potency: At least Large Building level+ (Destroyed skyscrapers by walking through them. Generates this much energy by moving) | At least Multi-Continent level (His beam struggle with Battra produced an explosion that parted the clouds above North America, generating this much power) | Likely Large Planet level (Stronger than before Godzilla was able to cause damage to Spacegodzilla, who later in a weakened state was able to battle Singura. At the time SpaceGodzilla was powered by the energy of a dying star that he absorbed before arriving on Earth. Was able to cause damage to Monster X with his Atomic Heat Ray. Godzilla matched the beams of Spacegodzilla and Monster X. Spacegodzilla had previously defeated both Battra and Titanosaurus rather easily and Monster X one-shoted Mothra. Godzilla's Heat Beam is so powerful, it can bust through a force field empowered by the force of a black hole, the force field was using the full power of the Black Hole according to the comic book author) | Likely Large Planet level (At least twice stronger than before absorbed the energy of a nuclear reactor, so he was capable of defeating Destoroyah with a Super Atomic Heat Ray. Destoroyah was previously unfaced by Godzilla attacks, Godzilla also killed the Trilopod Clone of Spacegodzilla who was equal strong as Spacegodzilla, if not stronger) | Likely Large Planet level (Godzilla absorbed the life-force of 13 kaiju, that were comparable to him, increasing his powers to a much higher level where he destroyed Magita with his Ruler Red Nuclear Pulse)

Speed: Superhuman | Superhuman travel speed (Travelled from Niijima Island to Tokyo in 3 hours, translating to 50 km/h) with Massively FTL+ combat speed and reactions (Kept up with SpaceGodzilla and reacted to and destroyed his crystal projectiles in midair, the former which can fly between stars) | At least Subsonic travel speed with Massively FTL+ combat speed and reactions | At least Subsonic travel speed with Massively FTL+ combat speed and reactions

Lifting Strength: At least Class M by virtue of his sheer size | Class M by virtue of sheer size | Likely Class P (Can easily push SpaceGodzilla, who resisted the gravitational pull of Singura's Black Hole) | Likely Class P (Stronger than before. Lifted the 55,000 ton Ebirah over his head) | Likely Class P (Massively stronger than before. Lifted Magita's Claw easily)

Striking Strength: At least Large Building level+ | At least Multi-Continent level | Likely Large Planet level | Likely Large Planet level | Likely Large Planet level

Durability: At least Town level (Took a Cruise Missile without damage) | At least Multi-Continent level (Was at the epicenter of the explosion from his beam clash with Battra, although he was also knocked unconscious) | Likely Large Planet level (Survived the explosion caused by the clash of beams between himself, Spacegodzilla, and Monster X, that merely knocked all three down, is confirmed to be stronger than in his previous clash with Battra) | Likely Large Planet level (Tanked attacks from kaiju that matched him) | Likely Large Planet level (Survived being in the epicenter of the nuclear pulse explosion that blew Magita to pieces, albeit he was contemporarily unconscious due to the massive power output)

Stamina: Superhuman (He can battle multiple kaiju of his level consecutively and can swim across oceans without rest. However, his stamina starts to decrease in Fusion Form)

Range: Tens of Meters due to his sheer size | Tens of Meters by his sheer size, Hundreds of Meters to Kilometers with Atomic Ray, Nuclear Pulse, and Red Spiral Ray

Standard Equipment: Teeth, claws and a tail

Intelligence: Average (Godzilla was shown to be able to invent strategies to fight powerful threats such as when he took a nuclear reactor to power up himself, called Mothra to help him, and finally attracted Destroyah to a place where he would have the advantage. Godzilla suffered by the deaths of Kiryu and Moguera, he expressed his pain with a battle cry, Has triggered a volcanic eruption to weaken Biollante enough for him to land the finishing blow, used the environment to his advantage in his battle against Zilla, and teamed up with other kaiju and even his most dangerous enemies on multiple occasions to battle threats he found difficult to take on alone)

Weaknesses: While his hide is resistant to heat enough to submerge himself in lava, his insides are somewhat more vulnerable (An explosion from an oil tanker to his open wound inflicted by Gaira was enough to trouble him)

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

• Atomic Breath
• Super Atomic Breath
• Orange Atomic Breath
• Ruler Spiral Heat Ray
• Nuclear Pulse
• Ruler Red Nuclear Pulse
• Attack Reflection
• Flight

• Atomic Ray: A powerful beam of atomic energy fired from Godzilla's mouth.
• Nuclear Pulse: Atomic energy that is emitted in all directions from Godzilla's body. These mecha Godzilla's show their force fields are immune to the Heat Beam's power, but Godzilla's Nuclear Pulse knocks them all down.
• Super Atomic Breath: A Stronger variation of the Atomic Breath used to kill stronger foes. Different from the normal one, this one can envelop large Kaijus such as Destroyah, Keizer Ghidorah and SpaceGodzilla-Trilopod.
• Orange Atomic Breath: An Atomic Breath with more Radiation able to kill many enemies at once.
• Ruler Spiral Heat Ray: A more powerful version of Godzilla's atomic ray that is red and was gained after Godzilla took the life-forces of 13 different Kaijus at the same time and turned into Fusion Godzilla.
• Ruler Red Nuclear Pulse: Possibly IDW Godzilla's strongest attack to date and can kill Magita. Godzilla releases the energy from 14 kaiju at the same time.
• Attack Reflection: Smacked away an energy blast with his tail.
• Flight: IDW Godzilla can flight via shot his Atomic Breath to the ground, his speed can be equal to Hedorah's flight speed.

Note: We consider the continuity consisting of Kingdom of Monsters, Ongoing (or 2012) and Rulers of Earth to be the Main IDW Continuity. This does not include incarnations in miniseries published by IDW.
