- —Goro to Liu Kang
Prince Goro is an antagonist from the Mortal Kombat series. He appeared in the 125th episode of Death Battle, Goro VS Machamp, where he fought against a Machamp from the Pokémon series.
History
A member of Outworld's four-armed Shokan race, Goro is their sovereign prince, champion warrior, and loyal servant to emperor Shao Kahn's throne. The half-dragon has competed in Mortal Kombat tournaments for over 500 years and has a track record of over nine consecutive victories, bringing more honor to the Shokan race with each one. His first loss came with his tenth title defense, when he faced Liu Kang, a Shaolin monk chosen by the White Lotus Society to represent them. However, this loss wasn't enough to put Goro down, and with a reputation so monstrous and fearsome, even the most seasoned warriors hesitate to face him out of fear for losing, knowing full well that a horrific death awaits them if they do.
