Godzilla: King of the Monsters
Monarch confirmed 17 Titans existed on Earth inGodzilla : King of the Monsters , but that number does n’t seem to bring up , base on other information provided in the motion picture - so that means there could really be more heavyweight in the MonsterVerse . The fact is , there are actually more than 17 Titans mentioned inKing of the Monstersitself .
The action inKing of the Monstersrevolves around four elephantine monsters - Godzilla , King Ghidorah , Rodan , and Mothra - all of which are Toho properties adapted for the MonsterVerse . At the beginning of the pic , Mothra and Ghidorah are fire up up by the man , with the latter continue to wake up up all the known Titans at once . What follows is a dramatic two - on - two face-off with Godzilla present off against Ghidorah in an epic replay and Mothra battle it out with Ghidorah ’s minion , Rodan . In the end , Ghidorah and Mothra are vote down , and onlyGodzilla and Rodan are left stand , with original MonsterVerse TitansScylla , a third M.U.T.O.,Behemoth , andMethuselahshowing up in the aftermath of the fight .

These are n’t the only Titans in the MonsterVerse , though . InKing of the Monsters , Dr. Serizawa ( Ken Watanabe ) assure Mark ( Kyle Chandler ) that Monarch has so far discover 17 Titans . But names on Monarch ’s monitor screens point to the being of 20 Titans , rather than 17 . apart fromKong and all the Titanswho made on - filmdom show , there are 11 more confirmed Titans : Abaddon , Baphomet , Tiamat , Leviathan , Yamata no Orochi , Sekhmet , Mokele - Mkembe , Typhon , Quetzalcoatl , Amhuluk , and Bunyip .
So why is the number " 17 " used in the moving-picture show to describe the number of Titans ? First of all , this number , which is often reference by fans , seems to be a misconception . Dr. Serizawa ’s exact quote is " 17 and counting , after Gojira " , but only " 17 " was get a line inKing of the Monsters ' trailer . Fans are consider Godzilla , but the full line hint Dr. Serizawa is n’t talk about Godzilla when he provides this routine to Mark . That would boost the number to 18 , but what about the other two ? It ’s possible that Dr. Serizawa does n’t numerate the third M.U.T.O. as a Titan . This could be the case , since all the other monsters have " Titanus " in their genus names . M.U.T.O.s may be jumbo monsters , but that does n’t mean they ’re Titans . Something in their biota may differentiate them from Godzilla , Kong , and the others .
As for the last monster that was n’t count by Dr. Serizawa , this could be King Ghidorah . This conversation happensbeforeMark finds out about Ghidorah , and judging by their hesitation to tell Mark about the creature in a later scene , it could be that Dr. Serizawa deliberately avoided mentioning him . It may have been Monarch ’s intent to keep Ghidorah a secret from everyone . So it look that Monarch actually has knowledge of 20 giant monster in the MonsterVerse . King of the Monstersis obscure about the MonsterVerse ’s number of Titans , but it may not count for much longer . Godzilla vs. Kongmay tot up to the sum by enclose new Titanswhen it research Hollow Earth . The credits ofGodzilla : King of the Monstersalready seeminglyteased the existence of a secret , hidden Titan , and more may survey .
