Diadectids, like this Diadectes, were among the very first large-bodied, terrestrial herbivores. They existed from (at least) the Late Carboniferous to the Late Permian. MonsterVerse Godzilla is known to have been the (supposedly) sole-surviving member of his species.
Liaoningosaurus paradoxus is a dinosaur whose evolution parallels that of Legendary Godzilla.
Think about it: from a group of large-bodied, herbivorous tetrapods came at least one member that evolved an aquatic lifestyle, including sharp claws and teeth (despite still retaining a beak).
Like Crocodilians, Legendary Godzilla swam from extinction.
And to top it
