Godzooky (ゴズーキー Gozūkī) is a juvenile kaiju that appeared in the 1978 Hanna-Barbera television series, Godzilla.
His vocal sound effects were provided by the late Don Messick.
Design[]
Godzooky is loosely based on Minilla, with membranes under his arms that grant him the ability to glide through the air, similar to Varan. He resembles the version of Godzilla in the series, with green skin and a row of dorsal plates running from the top of his head down his back.

Trivia[]
- Godzilla is said to be Godzooky's "uncle," however this relationship is never elaborated upon and there is no indication that Godzilla himself has any siblings. It is more likely that the term is used figuratively, with no actual blood relationship between the monsters.
- Many fans wonder if, since Godzilla is supposedly Godzooky's uncle, then Godzilla may have a brother and/or sister, although the show never says anything about him having one. It is more likely, however, that the term "nephew" is used figuratively, with no actual blood relation between the monsters.
- It is likely the two are of different species, as Godzooky can fly (though it is possible that they can while younger and lose the ability to do so as they mature).
