Godzilla got a new pink form as a result of powering up in the latest MonsterVerse movie, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. This new form was necessary but also inspired by classic anime and the early years of Godzilla movies. It is also Godzilla's most powerful form yet and holds unique powers of its own.
Godzilla's Pink Atomic Power Is A Result Of His Evolution
As revealed in Godzilla x Kong, Godzilla's completely revamped appearance was a direct result of another Titan's energy. Specifically, the pink upgrade came courtesy of Tiamat, one of the 11 unseen monsters mentioned in Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
Godzilla is usually portrayed as being either charcoal gray or black in color. Godzilla being green is a stereotype that started as early as the 1956 American poster for Godzilla, King of the Monsters!.
Apparently not! According to Jared Krichevsky, the man who designed Godzilla and the other Monsters for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, Godzilla's evolution was always meant to be temporary: Yeah it was always supposed to be temporary transition. In the movie he absorbs the DNA of Tiamat.
Gojirin resembles Godzilla in her appearance, but has several key differences. Her skin is bright pink, and her dorsal plates are a lighter shade of pink, and are also heart-shaped. In keeping with a common cartoon trope, her gender is also identified by her longer eyelashes.

Did Godzilla turn pink?
Whereas Goku learned the Kaio-Ken from King Kai, Godzilla obtained his pink form from absorbing the DNA of a fellow kaiju named Tiamat. Differing power-up circumstances aside, Krichevsky confirmed that— like Goku's Kaio-Ken — Godzilla's pink form is temporary.
The Monsterverse could bring it back if Godzilla vs Kong 3 happens since he still had it at the end of the movie, but since Tiamat's power isn't naturally his, it's likely that it's not a permanent power-up.
He now uses the atomic blue glow that radiates throughout his body as a display of dominance when threatened, and will fire his atomic breath much more often once fully charged, as seen in Godzilla vs. Kong.
In films that depict Godzilla as an aggressor, we rarely know why Godzilla is angry enough to invade Tokyo. Presumably, he is provoked by war, pollution, industrialization, and of course, the dropping of the A-bomb. Loud noises, bad smells, and humanity's general disregard for the natural world invoke his wrath.
Red is the main antagonist of NES Godzilla Creepypasta, and be a posthumous overarching antagonist in the sequel Godzilla Replay. He is a demonic-like entity who possessed game NES Copy Godzilla:Monster of Monsters! Melissa's death which also makes him Zachary's arch-nemesis.
Summary. Godzilla won his first fight with Superman, surprising fans who may have expected Superman come out on top. Superman's humanity almost cost him his life, as his compassion for others led him to take the damage that Godzilla doled out.
In 1971's Godzilla vs. Hedorah, the Showa shows Godzilla was in hot pursuit of his enemy and needed to travel a great distance to catch him. To accomplish this, he directed his atomic breath at the ground. The force of the blast propelled him into the air, allowing Godzilla to fly.
In Godzilla x Kong, Gojira is pink for multiple reasons including references to the past, marketing and merchandizing aspects, and adding freshness/new abilities to the monster's armory. The latest Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire trailer revealed Godzilla in some sort of a hibernation lair.
Godzilla was the actual winner of both battles between Godzilla and King Kong, but after Kong helped him defeat Mechagodzilla, Godzilla left Kong alone after the primate king dropped the ax. When Kong did that, Godzilla knew Kong was no longer a threat to him, and both seemingly accepted each other.
A lot of thought went into this new form for the King of Monsters. While it is confirmed to be temporary, it does open the door for Godzilla to evolve even further. It isn't even limited to him.
He can die. Every Godzillas died from events: like the oxygen destroyer, his nuclear meltdown, mechagodzilla, who kill Godzilla, but got revived by Rodan and even Spacegodzilla or Destroyah could kill him, but didn't. Even Hedorah's sludge melt godzilla's to his bones. His skin is not invulnerable to anything.
In the 1998 film Godzilla, the monster is referred to as a male and is depicted laying eggs through parthenogenesis. In the Legendary Godzilla films, Godzilla is referred to as a male. Godzilla's allegiance and motivations have changed from film to film to suit the needs of the story.
In addition of aging slower despite being 252 million years old and still has the physical appearance of a giant reptile in his prime, Godzilla can practically live forever, though close-call instances such as exposure to the Oxygen Destroyer and his battle against Mechagodzilla confirmed that he can still be killed.
In the original Japanese films, Godzilla and all the other monsters are referred to with gender-neutral pronouns equivalent to "it", while in the English dubbed versions, Godzilla is explicitly described as a male.
While many fans speculated that Godzilla's pink spine was a rip-off from the Super Saiyan Rosé form in Dragon Ball Super, it actually turned out to be inspired by Goku's Kaio-ken technique.
The very bright violet color on Frieza's face, neck, hands and feet are pinker (like the original) to make a warmer scheme with comparison to the red on his body, matching the warmth and warmer colors like red are a form of symbolism of power and superiority.
One source of confusion is the 1998 American Godzilla film, where the titular monster laid eggs asexually. While it too is officially classified as male despite this ability, this trait suggests it is most likely asexual or hermaphroditic.
