History: When the people on Infant Island were endangered, Mothra hatched from a long dormant egg. It went blindly ahead to save the Ailias. In her rage, she destroyed a lot and killed many. Still considered to be good, though.

Reality 1: When the "bad" Godzilla attacked Japan in 1964, Mothra was persuaded to help. She fought Godzilla, but since she was weak because she just laid an egg, she died fighting Godzilla.

Reality 2: When the "bad" Godzilla attacked Japan in 2003, Mothra was persuaded to help. She fought Godzilla, but since she was weak because she just laid an egg, she died fighting Godzilla.

 

Fighting Power: **/***

The original Mothra isn't a very powerful fighter; she can't do much. The 2 stars are for the larva form, the three are for the adult. She seams very basic, so she gets a very basic rating. It is tough to tell because in both realities, she fought Godzilla while weakened. She is fairly agile but her attacks are weak, the wind doesn’t accomplish much, and the poison powder doesn’t seem to do anything. She always seems to be outmatched. Never gives up, though.
