Powers and Abilities
In all incarnations the Gyaos have been shown to be astonishingly capable flyers, able to fly incredibly fast and perform agile aerial maneuvers with ease. Also, Gyaos have the ability to fire sonic beams from their mouths that can cut through nearly anything short of Gamera's shell, however, the Showa Gyaos had a weakness in that the double throats it used to create its Sonic Ray limited the mobility of its head and neck. Although they are nocturnal, the Gyaos can overcome the sun: emitting a fog-like gas to obscure the sun and douse flames, while the Heisei version simply evolves into Super Gyaos and grows protective plates over its eyes. While sunlight was merely an annoyance to the Heisei Gyaos, it was a fatal weakness in the Showa Gyaos, as Ultraviolet rays ate away his tissue. Interestingly, the Space Gyaos in Gamera vs. Guiron seems to have no such aversion to sunlight. The Showa version also has a regenerative ability, as it was able to regrow its severed foot after only an hour. The Heisei version showed several evolutions: it was asexual and could reproduce on its own. While not shown to be regenerative, the Super Gyaos is immensely physically tough, able to easily shrug off missile attacks, and even survive orbital re-entry however this isn't surprising as many kaiju have done things similar to these feats. In all eras Gamera and Gyaos are considered archenemies.
