==History==
===Ultraman Gaia===
Apatee was an organism from space, created by the Radical Destruction Bringer, who saw Ultraman Gaia's battle against C.O.V. and created Apatee to mimic him. Apatee was deployed to Earth in the form of a spaceship. However, it was discovered by GUARD of Europe, and using the video footage of him, XIG determined that it is a metallic organism. As Apatee reached a desert, the XIG Peace Carry brought the XIG Fighter SS and SG to the site and immediately opened fire on him. However, Apatee cleverly pretended to crash, then morphed into spikes and threw himself at Fighter three, piercing its wing. 
Then it uniformed into a humanoid form and used its spear to down Fighter two. A frequency was picked up around him, allowing Gamu Takayama to realize why Apatee was using such a humanoid form. Gamu then jumped from the Peace Carry, and transformed into Ultraman Gaia.
After Gaia appeared, the two fought and Gaia gained the upper hand. However, Apatee was not down yet and shifted himself a suit of armor. The two fought again, and Gaia was beaten down due to Apatee's improved speed and stamina. Soon, Apatee began to slash at the giant with its spear and trap him using spikes as a cage. However, Peace Carry blew away some of the spikes, allowing Gaia to escape. 
Unfortunately, Gaia lost much of his health from the attack and soon fell over, as his color timer blinked. Apatee rose again, and Gaia used the rest of his energy to attack the organism with the Quantum Stream. But Apatee rose again, this time using a javelin. Just as the organism was about to kill Gaia, a blue light hit him and Apatee exploded, allowing Gaia to see the other Ultraman: Agul. 
Apatee's parts, along with Alguros's, later became part of the monster Mimos.
