Dagahra

==Summary==
Dagahra (ダガーラ Dagāra) is a pollution-consuming kaiju created by Toho that first appeared in the 1997 Toho film, Rebirth of Mothra II.
In the past, a race of advanced people called the Nilai Kanai created Dagahra to clean all the pollution they were releasing. Dagahra consumed the pollution but created the Barems in the process. The Barems were acidic sea stars, and Dagahra released them on the Nilai Kanai and destroyed the people. Dagahra then fell into a deep sleep, resting at the bottom of the ocean.
Thousands of years later, Dagahra was awakened again due to the rise in pollution rates in Japan. It began eating the pollution and releasing the Barems once again. The Barems attacked and killed many people on the surface. After hearing of Dagahra, Mothra Leo came and attacked it, but was put at a disadvantage when Dagahra was under the water. He was infected by the Barems, but Ghogo used his power to turn Mothra Leo into Rainbow Mothra, who now had the ability to transform into Aqua Mothra, so he could battle on equal terms with Dagahra. Mothra Leo managed to battle and defeat Dagahra, then dropped the monster's body onto the Nilai-Kanai temple, which exploded along with Dagahra, ending the monster's reign of terror once and for all.

*Barem Toxin/Barem Bullet: Dagahra's shoulder cannons can fire a concentrated mixture of Barem and crystallized toxins. Appearing as a quickly moving red cloud, the attack can be utilized underwater, above the surface and while flying. The Barem were deadly enough to overrun and destroy the Nilai-Kanai empire
*Poisonous Jet Stream Shockwave: Dagahra can fire a beam from his mouth. Infused with Barem, this beam is powerful enough to destroy the Nilai Kanai temple. Despite the fact that the beam is laced with Barem, adding to its toxic properties, is does not the poisonous starfish on opponents that are struck by it.
*Vertical Poison Cannon: Dagahra is able to fire Crimson energy beams from his dorsal fins. Firing upward, this poisonous attack could only be used in the water. It was most effective when used as a surprise attack as Mothra Leo flew overhead.
*Thundering Toxic Crimson Vortex: Dagahra is able to create a tornado of Barems and lightning by quickly rotating himself underwater. This attack, which takes a while to prepare, was used against Mothra Leo to trap the monster within the tornado-like vortex. Once the attack was finished, Mothra Leo was covered in Barem.
*Super-Extreme Dragon Explosion: Dagahra fires two powerful beams from its shoulder cannons.
*Dragon-Burst Crimson Light Waves: Dagahra can rotate and fire energy rings from his body.
*Flight: Dagahra could fly at an incredible rate, reaching speeds of up to Mach 10. When grabbing Mothra's wing in its jaws, the creature was able to overtake it in speed, pushing the noble monster backward into a mountainside.
*Adept Swimmer: Dagahra could move underwater at 150 knots, which is roughly 278 kilometers per hour. While the creature was able to move quickly underwater, its speed did not measure up to its aerial capabilities of Mach 10, roughly 12,348 kilometers per hour. This is possibly why the creature chooses to engage Mothra Leo in the air, even though many of its weapons are water-based.
