According to Satoshi Tajiri, the creator of Pokemon, Ultraman and his capsule kaiju were a HUGE inspiration to him, which led to the creation of Pokemon. As such, there are a load of references to Ultraman, Godzilla, Gamera, the Super Sentai and other such big Japanese television series throughout the Pokemon franchise. In this video we talk about that! Kaiju Pokemon! and how Tyranitar is NOT based on Godzilla like everybody says.
