History
Dorako was one of three monsters who was awakened by the effects of a comet that was passing through Earth's atmosphere. He fights one of the monsters who was awakened, a Yeti-like monster called "Gigass" to a stand still with both of them evenly matched. Later, the third monster awakened was Red King who briefly sided with Gigass and attacked Dorako, tearing off his wings and beating the monster to death. Eventually, Dorako died of his injuries and Red King and Gigass fought each other.

Towards the end of the series, Dorako was revived as "Re-Dorako," (His wings and claws are missing, but he has now been given hands and a crown of spikes on his head.) He, along with Telesdon and Pigmon were revived by Geronimon as a warning to humanity of Geronimon's plan for conquest. However, both Telesdon and Re-Dorako were killed by The Science Patrol before Geronimon could appear himself, while Pigmon was killed by Re-Dorako for distracting him.

Ultraman Powered
This Monster reappeared in the series Ultraman: The Ultimate Hero.

In this series, Dorako was a bioweapon created by the Alien Baltan. It was first confronted by a Male Red King of the series, but it had little trouble with the monster, sliting his throat and killing him instantly. Ultraman Powered showed up and trying to fight the monster, but Dorako's power was too much for him to handle and defeated Ultraman Powered too and flew away. In the middle of the fight, Dorako made a low-pitch bellow that awakened the Baltans Main Weapon against Powered. Later that night, Ultraman Powered confronted Dorako again in the heart of Los Angeles and two faced off again. This time Powered was successful in destroying Dorako, but not before Dorako left a gigantic gash on Powered's chest revealing Ultraman Powered's true identity...

This Dorako greatly differed in appearance from its original look. It kept its beak, but that beak had been segmented and its wings turned into more avian in design. Its hooked claws were usually kept under sleeve-like folds of skin around its hands. It also displayed the ability to throw small serrated hooks from these folds.
