After the end of Ultra Fight Victory, which was Ginga's last succeeding series, a new Ultra Series was released under the name Ultraman X. In said series, it also reused the Spark Doll concept despite different in origin.

Ultraman Ginga (ウルトラマンギンガ, Urutoraman Ginga) is the titular Ultra of the series. Hailed from the future, he and Dark Lugiel were originally a single celestial entity. However, their contradicting ideas and GHNnGgJJ point of view towards life forms (Lugiel sees them as threats while Ginga sees them as part of the universe) had made them split, with Lugiel bearing the darkness and Ginga bearing the light.^[10] Ultraman Ginga arrived late to stop Lugiel as he had successfully frozen the Ultras Heroes and the Ultra Monsters into Spark Doll as the fight between the two ended in a tie, causing Ginga to be imprisoned in Spark Doll and Lugiel weakened. His main weapon, the Ginga Spark (ギンガスパーク, Ginga Supāku) became the sacred item that worshipped by Hotsuma Raido and later picked Hikaru as his human host due to his hidden potential. After Ginga defeated the revived Dark Lugiel in the final episode, he advised Hikaru to go on an adventure and he will return once his job accomplished, as he went to space with the freed life forms.

Ginga's combat tactic mainly revolves around hand-to-hand combat, but starting from his fight with Dark Lugiel and so on, he also utilized the Ginga Spark Lance (ギンガスパークランス, Ginga Supāku Ransu), a yari which was the combat form of Ginga Spark.

He achieved the form Ultraman Ginga Strium (ウルトラマンギンガストリウム, Urutoraman Ginga Sutoriumu) with the help of Taro, who loaned the Ultra Brothers' powers to him. He also receives an aid from Victory, an Ultra that native to the Earth. But as the battle against Exceller and Lugiel ended once more, he loses the form again and returned to space. As Ginga Strium, Ginga is considered a Super Ultraman (スーパーウルトラマン, Sūpā Urutoraman) combination (due to the use of Strium Brace/Ultraman Taro); his ability perimeters is heightened to be on par with that of Victory, possessing enhanced ESP and his fighting stance replicated that of Taro.^[11] Although retaining his original attacks, Ginga is capable of using the finishers of all six Ultra Brothers and utilize Cosmo Miracle Ray (コスモミラクル光線, Kosumo Mirakuru Kōsen) by combining their attacks.
