Etymology[]
The creature's three-headed nature and its name are both references to King Ghidorah, a three-headed dragon from the popular Godzilla film series.
In the Japanese version, the creature is known as "Chimera". The chimera is a fire-breathing monster, one of the offspring of Typhon and Echidna. It is commonly represented with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a serpent's tail in Greek mythology. In modern usage, the term chimera is often taken to mean any sort of hybrid between two or more species.
The German versions refer to the creature as "El Diablo," a Spanish phrase meaning "the devil".
