The following is a list of monsters that have made an appearance and/or were mentioned in the Godzilla franchise. The kaiju and kaijin are organized by medium and order of introduction in it; additionally, these appearances are by their debut in the Godzilla franchise and not where they first appeared originally. For example, Mothra was introduced to the Godzilla series in Mothra vs. Godzilla, so she is listed under "Films" as "Mothra (Mothra vs. Godzilla)." The list also lists the introductions of new forms for monsters.
Toho and Toho-associated monsters that made an appearance before being in Godzilla media are marked in italics.
