Second of all this could be a different Kong, so yeah Godzilla didn't appear in the movie, but it's not like there isn't any continuity, how else would you explain Gorosaurus being transported in DAM or that fact of a baby Varan and Baragon being on the Monsterland Island as well. Just think about it?

That is all I have to say... It's not a just a "different Kong," it's an entirely separate incarnation of King Kong. It's like what the Heisei Godzilla is to GMK Godzilla. They're separate incarnations of the same character from a different continuity. In King Kong Escapes, the characters clearly say that King Kong is a legendary creature that nobody had ever seen before. It's incompatible with King Kong vs. Godzilla and therefore not part of the same continuity.

And I can easily explain how Gorosaurus is on Monsterland in DAM: It's not the same Gorosaurus. DAM takes place in a different continuity where Gorosaurus happens to exist and was transported to Monsterland alongside Earth's other monsters. And there is no confirmation of a "baby" Baragon or Varan in the film either. Varan and Baragon happen to be smaller than in their film debuts. Why? Because it's a new continuity that isn't connected to Varan or Frankenstein vs. Baragon.

I don't understand why it's so hard for people to understand that monsters can exist in different continuities. It's like the people that say "Final Wars has to be a sequel to the Showa series because Anguirus is in it!" Destroy All Monsters is not set in the same continuity as Varan, Frankenstein vs. Baragon or King Kong Escapes. It's part of the Showa Godzilla continuity, and features different incarnations of Gorosaurus, Varan and Baragon.
