Gameplay

Creature — Kraken

{6}{U}{U}: Monstrosity 4. (If this creature isn't monstrous, put four +1/+1 counters on it and it becomes monstrous.) When this creature becomes monstrous, tap up to four target creatures. Those creatures don't untap during their controllers' untap steps for as long as you control this creature.

An ability that triggers when a creature becomes monstrous won't trigger if that creature isn't on the battlefield when its monstrosity ability resolves.

2013-09-15wotc

If you lose control of Shipbreaker Kraken between when its last ability triggers and when that ability resolves, the target creatures will become tapped. However, they won't be affected by the other effect and will untap as normal during their controllers' untap steps.

Monstrous isn't an ability that a creature has. It's just something true about that creature. If the creature stops being a creature or loses its abilities, it will continue to be monstrous.
