|-|General Description▾=
*This verse's power ranges widely and it has several useful abilities. Humans have a standard Athlete level physically, and Street level to Wall level with weapons. Some aliens like Kuronuma have Street level feats, while heroes like Zone Angel can fight with villains like the Gold Garoga, who can vaporize his minions for a solid Small Building level.
*In the original 1954 Godzilla movie, there are Building level+ to Island level+ feats. By Shin Godzilla, the series debuted city block and town-busting, with characters hitting Large Island level by the GMK Continuity. By the Godzilla 2000 Continuity, the average monsters were around Large Country level+, due to Godzilla being capable of damaging the Millennian UFO, which survived a crash with Earth at Relativistic+ speeds. By the Kiryu and Final Wars continuities, very often some characters are planetary threats, as even the weakest monsters of this period are Multi-Continent level. Within the Megaguirus Continuity characters reached Dwarf Star level. In the Showa Era, almost from the very beginning, characters reach Large Star level. The First Generation King Ghidorah is said to be invincible and unrivaled in space which directly includes the Garoga Empire despite having the Garoga Nukes, he can also eat comets. More characters at this level are introduced, and forms that significantly increase that level of strength. Finally, at the end of the Showa Era, Solar System level was reached, with feats such as surpassing time and exceeding the strength of the previous arc's villains. In the Heisei Era characters reached higher into that level.
*Godzilla himself has several notable feats such as reacting to and shooting a comet carrying Monster X/Kaiser Ghidorah while it was still in space, tanking an absolute zero blast, surviving as nothing but a beating heart, and moving the Earth's tectonic plates from the indirect force of Heisei Godzilla and Larva Battra's battle.
*Crossover-wise, the verse reaches cosmic to multiversal levels of power, with Godzilla, Kong Kiryu, Mothra, and other kaiju being consistently paired with Universe level+ beings, and power-ups put them at the level of the Multiverse level Gods.
*Other Media: Other media outlets, such as the Godzilla TV shows, and SD Godzilla World, have Wall level characters as the weakest Godzilla-related media. The Shueisha Godzilla series follows with City Block level characters. Trendmasters Godzilla Series debuted city block and town-busting. In the Godziban series, City level was reached, while The Godzilla Comic, Dark Horse Comics, and TriStar Godzilla series closely follow the sequence in power for the most part with a solid Island level. In the MonsterVerse, A Space Godzilla, Random House, and Godzilla Island, the characters mainly range in power from Large Island level, Country level+, and Multi-Continent level respectively, with top tiers like Rebirth of Mothra Trilogy, Kodansha, The Godzilla Power Hour, IDW, Shogakukan getting Planet level, up to Solar System level. Marvel Comics introduced the top tiers of the verse, with Godzilla himself having several notable feats, such as battling Thor and the God of Thunder comparing him to the World Serpent, and Hercules having to put in an extreme effort to overpower a simple stomp from him, placing Godzilla at High Universe level. The anime series Godzilla Anime Trilogy deviates by the end of it by having higher-level characters; the same is true for characters like King Ghidorah (Godzilla Anime Trilogy), who is a 4th-dimensional being whose mere presence distorts space and time itself, who cannot be 'killed' on the 3-D level and can manipulate 4-dimensional structures as one of the strongest in-verse characters, placing him at a solid Universe level+. The Godzilla Singular Point anime and novel consistently mention that the general premise is that an entity, "It", who is the true form of Godzilla (and SHIVA), comes from a higher dimension. It is implied that it sees each universe as a dream in which it creates its own physical body and tries to take over. The entity has destroyed thousands of universes, and it seems that it also takes them over physically, as it is explained that it is expanding its domain. Just some of the entities that were part of "It" have been described as connected to countless dimensions (in the context of the quote, it is specifically mathematical dimensions), and it is said that they see things like time and space as paths they can take rather than something they exist within. Additionally, "it" has been stated to view the universe like a dream, or rather dreams within dreams that continue on and on. The verse is at Hyperverse level at its peak.

|-|Terminology=
===Production Eras===
The history of the Godzilla Series can be split into 4 eras, with 3 of them following the rule of Japan's current Emperor and 1 with the start of the new millennium in the year 2000. These eras are known as
*Showa: The era in Japan between 1926 and 1989.
*Heisei: The era in Japan between 1989 and 2019.
*Millennium: The era within the Godzilla movies between 2000 and 2004.
*Reiwa: The current era of Japan that started in 2019.
Characters will often be referred to by the era that they operated in, defined by cultural norms both within the shows and in reality. These norms shape the story and tone of the plots these shows revolve around, giving each era a unique and distinguishable vibe that separates them from each other.
 
Note: The Millennium era applies exclusively to the Godzilla series, with most other tokusatsu franchises identifying works produced concurrent with the Millennium films to still be in the Heisei series.
===Other Common Terms===
*Kaiju: Kaiju (怪獣 kaijū) is a Japanese word that literally means "strange beast" and is usually translated as "monster" in English. Traditionally, kaiju can refer to any sort of strange creature, but in recent times the word has become associated with a genre of tokusatsu entertainment, specifically Japanese cinema that involves giant monsters. The most powerful kaiju are at times advertently referred to as daikaiju (大怪獣 daikaijū) the prefix dai- emphasizing great power or status and is usually translated as "giant monster."
*Mecha: In science fiction, mecha (メカ) or mechs are giant robots or machines typically depicted as piloted and as humanoid walking vehicles. Mechas are typically depicted as humanoid mobile robots. The term was first used in Japanese (meka) after shortening the English loanword mekanikaru ('mechanical'), but the meaning in Japanese is more inclusive, and "robot" (robotto) or "giant robot" is the narrower term.
*Kaijin: Kaijin (怪人) is a Japanese word that means "mysterious person." In Japanese, kaijin is a relatively broad term that encompasses any fictional human-like character that possesses strange supernatural abilities and is usually used to refer to villains.
*Hiiroo: (ヒイロ) is a person who is admired for great or brave acts or fine qualities. Any individual of colorful appearance and extraordinary prowess.
*Earth Defenders: Earth Defenders tolerate humans but do not make a point to defend them - they see the Aliens as a blight on Earth and destroying them is their primary goal. They protect the world and their home of Monster Island from any foreign threat including humans.
*Divine Monsters: These monsters are/have been worshipped by humans, and are aware of their divine power (figuratively and literally) and exert it, both to reward and punish, some being more benevolent than others. Most of them defend the cosmos itself, and therefore often ally with Earth Defenders.
*Demonic Monsters: A demon is a supernatural evil being, that usually follows the commands of a demonic deity, whose principal motivations can vary, but usually tortured souls and kaiju for eternity in Hell.
*GDF (Global Defense Force): The Global Defense Force has built many mechs to defend mankind from monsters, be they from Earth or Outer Space.
*Aliens: These Alien monsters do the bidding of different alien races. Their primary goal is to conquer Earth by any means. They are willing to destroy both humans and kaiju from the other factions alike to achieve their goals, and with the support of their military, they are prepared to crush any resistance from the planet.
*Lawless Monsters: Due to various reasons, these monsters merely follow their own needs, making no allies and attacking everything that threatens them. Some have a lust for power that comes before all other concerns, all working for their own, sinister agenda: to destroy everything in their path. Some of them are bent on world domination, while others merely destroy what they dislike and if unchecked, could destroy human civilization.
*Independent Forces: These monsters are under mind control to obey the power of crazy scientists or any other races that came from Earth, and independently of the period, who have the intention to take control over the planet. These creatures are, therefore, extremely dangerous.
*Keizer: A Kaiser, also spelled as Keizer, is an extremely rare type of mutant who is granted additional powers due to the fusion of M-base and human DNA. In addition to the standard mutant abilities of superhuman strength, heightened reflexes, superior coordination, and increased agility, Kaisers can control any other life form by telepathic means if that organism has an M-base.
*Shobijin: Are tiny twin priestesses of Mothra who first appeared in the 1961 film, Mothra. They have been featured in nearly all of the character's film appearances since, as well as in several comics and video games. While their names and portrayals have varied over the years, Mothra's Shobijin acts as her link to humanity, interceding on her behalf with the rest of the world. The Shobijin can telepathically communicate with Mothra and translate her messages and often sing to summon her or pray for her aid.
*Mutants: are the genetic descendents of both humans and Xiliens. They were trained as a form of highly elite soldiers by the EDF under Commander Kumasaka. In Godzilla: Final Wars, all but Ozaki (and later Kazama) fell under the control of X. The most notable Mutant is Ozaki, who used his Keizer Energy to revive Godzilla.
|-|Story (Main Timelines)=
|-|Technology=Humanity and alien races had developed High-level technology that includes spaceships to travel between the solar system, time machines, mental control machines, armament capable of hurting the kaiju such as the hyper maser cannons, chemical weapons that can destroy entire cities at the molecular level like the Oxygen Destroyer and finally the definitive weapons are known as Mechas to fight the Kaiju. The technology of alien races ranges from weapons able to hurt the kaiju to being able to destroy Large Planets such as Peaceland with ease.

==Scaling==
<tabber>
|-|Showa Era=
The scaling of the Showa Era is the following:
King Ghidorah (1st Generation) = 3.296 Quettakilotons (High 4-C, Large Star level)
Super Jikiro = 10x Jikiro = 1.37 Foe (High 4-C, Large Star level)
King Caesar's Prism Eye = 10x = 13.79 Foe (High 4-C, Large Star level)
Mechagodzilla 2's Finger Missiles = 5x Mechagodzilla 1 = 68.95 Foe (4-B, Solar System level)
Car Compactor = 10,000x = 689.53 KiloFoe (4-B, Solar System level)
Also, King Ghidorah likely scales to the Car Compactor as he is said to be invincible and unrivaled in space which directly includes the Garoga Empire.
|-|Heisei Era=
The scaling of the Heisei Era is the following:
Godzilla (Pre-Supercharge) = 68.95 Foe (4-B, Solar System level)
Godzilla (Post-Supercharge) = x200 Godzilla (Pre-Supercharge) = 13.79 KiloFoe (4-B, Solar System level)
Mechagodzilla = x10,000 Godzilla (Post-Supercharge) = 137.90 MegaFoe (4-B, Solar System level)
Post-Rodan Boost Godzilla = x2 Godzilla = 275.81 MegaFoe (4-B, Solar System level)
MOGUERA = 6x Super Mechagodzilla = 1.65 GigaFoe (4-B, Solar System level)
