Yo-kai Medallium biography
"The strongest oni ever born. His power is so great that it needs no explanation. None. At all. Even this is too much..."
"Graaah! I want to be in a position to start Terror Time!"
—Gilgaros, Yo-kai Watch Blasters

Gilgaros (Japanese: 山吹鬼 Yamabuki Oni) is a Rank S, Lightning-attribute Legendary Yo-kai of the Tough tribe introduced in Yo-kai Watch. From Yo-kai Watch: Ukiukipedia Kiwami to Yo-kai Watch: Ukiukipedia Gakuen Y, and in Yo-kai Watch 4, he's part of the Oni tribe.

Biology[]

Appearance[]

Gilgaros strongly resembles his Boss Yo-kai counterpart Ogralus in that he is an imposing figure with clawed limbs, a fang-filled smile, two horns jutting from his head, and a red ponytail. He carries a huge spiked club. Unlike Ogralus, however, Gilgaros is a yellow-gold color and wears a purple scarf with some black splotches that match his loincloth.

Personality[]

Gilgaros is kinder than his siblings and likes to share his culture with others. He's fond of baseball. As a Yo-kai imprisoned behind the eight seals of the other Crank-a-kai exclusive Yokai, it can be said that Gilgaros is the most terrifying Yo-kai of all. However, upon his release, he is friendly enough to give his medal to the player, something no other Oni of his calibur would do until the second game, indicating he is at least thankful to have been released.

Profile[]

As Gilgaros is a Legendary Yo-kai, the player must befriend the following Yo-kai to unlock Gilgaros' Medallium page. All of these Yo-kai can only be freed from the Crank-a-kai, or the Infinite Tunnel.

Strangely enough, Gilgaros' Legend pages switch the places of Count Cavity and Eterna, as well as switching Goldenyan out for Hornaplenty.

After playing a game of baseball with his Oni brethren, where he was the only one to get a home run, he then gave Nate his medal in appreciation.

He later appeared in EP204 where Demuncher temporarily eats him.
