Pigumon lives

Pigmon[1][2][3] (ピグモン, Pigumon) is a passive Kaiju species in the Ultraman Series. Debuting in episode 8, the original Pigmon was one of the many monstrous creatures from Tatara Island, but, unlike its fellow inhabitants, the little red monster was friendly and curious toward humans, as evidenced by it helping a stranded survivor. It was tragically killed by the rampaging Red King, but would be resurrected by the powers of Geronimon, only to perish again, this time at the hands of the Re-Dorako.
