History
Ultraman Great
The first of many organisms to be mutated from Gudis's virus, Bogun changed his appearence from that of a tadpole to a gigantic brute rampaging through the United States. The UMA was sent to destroy it, but only succeeded in annoying Bogun. It wasn't long before Jack used the Delta Plasma Pendant to turn into Ultraman Great. As the two clashed, Great seemed to have the upper hand until Bogun used his poison gas. However, the Ultra persevered and eventually used the Burning Plasma to set Bogun on fire.
Triva
- Bogun is also similar to Litolumalus from Ultraman Tiga and the Jack monster Twin Tail, as all three share a similar body shape, with heads at the bottom and whips at the top.
Powers and Abilities
- Freezing Energy Orbs: Bogun is able to form small red and purple energy orbs around his foes that can freeze anyone inside.
- Poison Gas: Bogun can emit an extremely poisonous gas from the black pores on his front and back. This attack is primarily close range.
- Head Tentacle: Bogun has a tentacle on his head that he uses to slap his foes silly. While it has short reach, it can cause explosions that can destroy buildings.
Weakness
- Bogun is very slow moving and, according to Jack, he will go into hibernation without the warmth and light of the sun.
