After a failed attempt by Landes to recruit Gigan to her side, the Xilien was approached by the Giant Dark Emperor. The being granted her a new monster with which to destroy Godzilla Island: Dororin, a hideous shapeshifter capable of taking any form. Intent on getting Gigan and Godzilla to fight one another, Landes sent Dororin to Matango Island, where Gigan was currently residing. Forming his body out of the earth, Dororin assumed the form of Godzilla and attacked Gigan, knocking the cyborg unconscious with a giant rock to the head. Making his way to Godzilla Island, the space monster transformed into Gigan and used the same tactic again, assaulting Godzilla with a boulder. Landes' scheme worked; as soon as Gigan regained consciousness, the cyborg made a beeline for Godzilla Island. Naturally, the two monsters blamed one another for Dororin's trickery and went on the attack.
 As Godzilla and Gigan began to fight each other, Landes ordered Dororin to attack the G-Guard Base. Reappearing and reforming elsewhere on the island, the evil shapeshifter began to carry out his mistress' orders, blasting the facility with yellow beams from his eyes. With Godzilla busy fighting Gigan, the G-Guard Commander piloted Mechagodzilla into battle to stop Dororin's rampage. After a brief struggle, Mechagodzilla struck Dororin with its eye beams, blowing the monster to pieces. But the shapeshifting fiend was not beaten so easily, as the beast simply used the soil of Godzilla Island to rebirth himself, fully healed and ready to continue the fight. Not only could the creature reassemble himself upon destruction, he could also disassemble and reform at will, disappearing into the ground and reappearing behind Mechagodzilla, allowing it to outmaneuver and overpower the mech, no matter how many times it managed to destroy Dororin.
Realizing they needed Godzilla's help in order to overcome the invader, Moguera was launched from the base, piloted by Nao. Spotting the mech as it fired into the air, Dororin took the opportunity to shoot his eye beams at it, blasting the war machine out of the sky. Luckily, Nao was able to recover and land Moguera safely, getting Godzilla to understand the dire situation soon thereafter and pulling him away from his fight with Gigan, sending him to deal with Dororin.
Arriving at the G-Guard Base, Godzilla got Dororin's attention by blasting the alien beast in the back with his atomic ray. Briefly wrestling with the creature, Godzilla slammed the shapeshifting monster to the ground, breaking him apart. But Dororin immediately reformed, phasing through the guise of Gigan in the process, revealing to Godzilla that the cyborg was innocent after all. Unfortunately, Dororin's energy beams and ability to disappear and reform at will began to overwhelm the King of the Monsters, and the shapeshifter began to grapple him from behind, with Godzilla unable to break free. Just then, Gigan appeared, slicing Dororin with his Universal Cutter buzzsaw, shattering the beast and freeing Godzilla.
As Godzilla and Gigan continued to battle Dororin, Misato had realized the shapeshifter was rebuilding his body from the soil and knew what had to be done to stop the monster, piloting Fire Fighter Jet Jaguar into battle. As soon as the red robot arrived, it opened its fire hose, spraying Dororin with water. Completely drenched, Dororin was no longer capable of maintaining his earthly form and fell apart into a useless pile of mud. His outer body gone and unable to reform itself, the monster's true form - a small orb of energy - was revealed. Exposed and defenseless, Dororin shot into the sky, attempting to return to the Giant Dark Emperor and Landes, but Gigan was already on his tail. Catching up with him in seconds, the cyborg used his Universal Cutter once again, this time slicing the orb into pieces which faded away, permanently ending the threat of Dororin. |
