History
Ultraman Zero The Movie : The Revenge of Belial
Legionoids are one of the group of grunts in Kaiser Belial's galactic empire. They are numerous in number and are built for separate terrain locations. The first batch of Legionoids revealed were Alphas, who were sent to harvest the planet Esmerelda for emeralds for Ultraman Belial.
Run and Nao, two brothers and rebels, tried to fend off the batch of Legionoids but were quickly overpowered and endangered by a newly-revealed volcano. Ultraman Zero arrives in time to save them, merge with Run, and destroy a few threatening Legionoids, but is forced to flee into hiding with Nao when his strength is spent. After meeting and befriending Princess Emerana, Jean-bot, Glenfire and The Pirates of Flames, the group is ambushed by a massive squadron of Legionoid Betas, lead by one of Kaiser Belial's generals : Darkgone.

Trivia

Legionoids reappeared in the gaiden, Killer the Beatstar.
In part I of the special, the first Legionoid to be seen in the special is a Legionoid Beta, who is attacking a defenseless Princess Emerana. Rei and Hyuga of ZAP SPACY arrive and Rei saves Emerana by calling out Gomora. Gomora easily pummels the Legionoid and eventually destroys it with his Oscillatory Ray.
In part II of the special, it is revealed that an entire army of Mass Production Legionoids, Alpha and Beta types, have been created by Beatstar in his plans for Universal Conquest. Ultimately once Beatstar was destroyed, the Legionoid armies were destroyed in the planet's destruction.
