How strong is Shimo?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire unleashed a surprising new threat upon the Monsterverse via a creature known as Shimo. With the Monsterverse's Skar King going up against the combined forces of Godzilla and Kong, it made sense for the upcoming Godzilla vs. Kong sequel to make the final fight a proper two-on-two matchup.
Shimo caused the Ice Age at Skar King's behest, as this was part of his plan to take over the surface. Though Skar King apparently had the odds on his side, Godzilla won the war regardless. Godzilla x Kong's human characters learned in the movie that Godzilla imprisoned the Skar King and his allies in the fiery domain seen in Kong's storyline. Shimo remained stuck there as well, as evidenced by the scene that formally introduced the monster.
It's worth noting that ice powers alone don't define Shimo's capabilities. As her size suggests, she also brings a lot of physical force to the table. She was strong enough to overpower Kong and land some hard blows on Godzilla. Based on what was shown in the movie, it's likely that Shimo is at least close to Godzilla's level.
Godzilla X Kong Set Up Shimo As A Future Ally To Kong Are Shimo and Kong permanent allies now? Because Shimo was forced into villainy by Skar King, there's a chance she'll be on the side of the heroic Monsterverse Titans if and when she returns to the Monsterverse. Godzilla x Kong hinted at this being a possible future for Shimo through its ending. Similar to how Skar King rode Shimo into battle, Kong was shown on Shimo's back in the movie's final minutes.
