Hedoron (ヘドロン, Hedoron^?) is a kaiju that first appeared in "The Uncommon Enemy", ("Dr.Gori Targets Earth!") the first episode of Spectreman.

Spectreman - Episode 2: "Destroy The Pollution Monster Hedoron!"/"Hedoron Lives!"

Origin

Hedoron was created by Dr. Gori from pure sludge and waste found in the Fuji Sea and was also given sentience. It lied dormant at the bottom of the sea absorbing as much pollution as possible until it's feeding was completed. It was then released to cause mayhem and destruction at the behest of Gori. There is some Sea Slug DNA within the beast as it's feeding form resembles the creatures from earth.

Intelligence

Hedoron is a semi-sentient kaiju with no visible displays of intelligence. Despite being created by Dr. Gori he is not directly controlled by him though It's smart enough to understand instructions and have it's own independent thought similar to that of Dogs. It does not have a personality in the typical sense

The Full extent of Hedoron's mental faculties is unknown, but from the evidence we can determine it's similar to that of Earth animals

Objective

Hedoron's Primary Objective was to destroy the Mount Fuji and subsequently The Human Race from existence so that Dr. Gori Could rule the planet alongside Hedoron. Though it is assumed that Gori does not mean alongside in the literal sense.

Feeding Form: In his feeding form Hedoron resembles a sea slug with a Lime green and Black pattern on it. It has a white feeding apparatus with Multi-colored spots on it.

Biology

Hedoron is made up of pure sludge, waste and pollution as seen when it was killed by Spectreman. It stores Smog within its body and releases it as a defense mechanism. It feeds on pollution via it skin, mouth and tentacles and while in it's Feeding Form Hedoron can absorb a variety of waste as seen in Episode 2.

Hedoron's Corrosive mist is made up of Copper and Sodium compounds which are highly flammable. It skin secrete yellow sludge naturally underwater. Hedoron can transform itself into a Cloud of Smog for easy transportation.

Hedoron's tentacles are made up of a organic material unlike the rest of his body.
