Say here are some tropes that are related to Gabara from the Showa series that I found on TV Tropes:

A bully of a beast, Gabara exists only to torment the small and meek Minilla. Created in the imagination of a young boy (who is often bullied by an older boy named Gabara), he uses his size and electrical powers to antagonize Godzilla's son. After Minilla gains enough confidence from Ichiro and turns the tables on Gabara, he takes his frustration out on Godzilla, leading to a throw-down between the pissed-off father and the angry bully. Gabara is defeated and runs away, out of the movie and (so far) out of the series.
 * The Bully: Duh.
 * Butt-Monkey: Out of universe, there have been ZERO talks about bringing this guy back. It also took until March of 2013 for him to even get an entry; for context, this page was created on August of 2010.
 * He does get a brief appearance in the novel Godzilla: Monster Apocalypse... as a ten-metre tall ogre who causes no destruction and doesn't even get killed by another kaiju or even humans, but animal wildlife.
 * Dirty Coward: Prefers to pick on Minya since he can't fight back. Learned the hard way that Godzilla is a papa wolf.
 * Informed Species: Sometimes referred to as a mutant toad, but aside from his warty skin, he doesn't bear any resemblance to an amphibian.
 * Jerkass: He loves beating up Minya.
 * Mix and Match Critter: Face of a cat, green warty skin, reptilian belly.
 * Oni: It's not clear. According to some sources, he's one, but others claim he's a mutant toad.
 * Nightmare Fuel: In-Universe example. Gabara is literally a nightmare in the movie.
 * Shock and Awe: The horn on his head generates electricity but only when he touches his target.
 * Would Hurt a Child: Gabara's main victim on Monster Island is Godzilla's son.
