==Summary==
King Ghidorah, alternatively spelled as Ghidrah or more simply as Ghidorah, is the main antagonist of the Showa era of the Godzilla franchise. 
He is a giant golden three-headed extra-terrestrial dragon kaiju who travels from planet to planet, destroying them and their entire life populations, before setting his sights on the Earth. He would then become the ultimate weapon of various alien races including the Xiliens and the Kilaaks. He is the archenemy of Godzilla. He is said to have attacked Venus under his own power many thousands of years ago, wiping out the planet's entire civilization. He later attacked Earth but was repelled by Earth's monsters Godzilla, Rodan and Mothra.
