Solovar

"It is as I feared. The humans court war with gorillakind."

- Solovar

Solovar is a telepathic gorilla from Earth Two and the former leader of Gorilla City until he was defeated by The Flash and Grodd took over.

Biography
After The Flash, Vibe, Caitlin Snow and Julian Albert walked into the outskirts of Gorilla City, they were captured and placed in cells. Solovar came to see them, hitting Grodd for having not told him of their capture. Brokering a deal with Solovar, Barry offered to fight Solovar one-on-one, so long as he let all of them go if Barry won. Agreeing to this, they fought in the city's arena. Solovar got a number of strikes in, even striking the ground to shake it, but Barry ultimately won, knocking Solovar down with a single hit to the stomach with his vibrating hand. However, Barry spared his life, showing him mercy. Solovar was succeeded as ruler by Grodd.

Powers

 * Super-Strength: Solovar was seen to be able to counter Barry's speed punch by knocking him in the air. He was also shown to create a crater impact, spewing dust around the arena ring and knocking Barry from running in a circle. His overall strength seems comparable to that of Grodd's, though likely superior, as Grodd claimed that he needed Barry Allen to defeat him in combat, since he claims that he could not have defeated Solovar himself. This was later proven to be true when he was brought to Earth One by Cisco and Gypsy, and was able to subdue Grodd within minutes, also prompting the rest of the of the gorillas to follow him again and retreat to Gorilla City.
 * Telepathy: Solovar can telepathically communicate to human beings in English.

Abilities

 * Multilingual: It can be assumed that Solovar can speak in both English and animal languages.

Behind the scenes

 * In the DC comics, Solovar is the benevolent king of Gorilla City. He is an ally of The Flash and company, as well as the archenemy of Grodd. After being assassinated by gorillas manipulated by Grodd, his son Nnamdi succeeded him.
