King Ghidorah was brought to life on the movie screen by a stunt actor inside an elaborate three-piece suit, with a team of puppeteers to control the suit's many appendages allowing realistic movement.

Seeing as Varan, along with Anguirus, were supposed to be in the movie at first instead of Mothra and King Ghidorah, he compromised by putting Varan's facial fins on each side of all three heads of this suit. This is mainly because Fuyuki Shinada, who designed the suits for all the monsters in Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, was disappointed that Varan, his all-time favorite monster, wasn't going to be in the film. One thing to note about the SokogekiGhido suit is that it has Varan-like fins on each side of all three heads. As with the HeiseiGhido suit, the eyes on the SokogekiGhido suit are also colored red, but the pupils appear more human-like in appearance, much like the ShodaiGhido suit. The wings are more dragon-like in appearance, the heads looks very similar to that of a mythological dragon, and the scales and the feet are very dragon-like in appearance as well. The SokogekiGhido suit is based on the original ShodaiGhido suit, but with more modern updates. When Ghidorah is revived to fight Godzilla again, he is now known as King Ghidorah. In Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, the guardian monster Ghidorah's name is spelled in kanji but pronounced the same: 魏怒羅 ( Gidora).
