This article is about a/an Ranger in Power Rangers Turbo, the third season in the Zordon Era , and Power Rangers in Space. |
Ashley Hammond was picked by Tanya Sloan to succeed her as the second Yellow Turbo Ranger of the Turbo Rangers.
After Divatox's crew destroyed the Power Chamber and her Turbo powers, Ashley became the Yellow Space Ranger of the Space Rangers.
During the events of Power Rangers Lost Galaxy, Ashley and the other Space Rangers return helping the Galaxy Rangers against Trakeena and the resurrected Psycho Rangers.
Retroactively, she is also referred to as Turbo Yellow Ranger and Space Yellow Ranger or In Space Yellow Ranger - variations on her in-show labels, though the latter is more in reference to the show itself than a proper label.
History[]
Turbo[]
- "You showed compassion and integrity Ashley, I chose you with pride to be the new Yellow Ranger."
- ―Tanya handed over her Yellow Ranger powers to Ashley[src]
Ashley was a recurring character during the beginning of the Turbo Era. She was an Angel Grove High School Cheerleader and was seen helping the terrified citizens of Angel Grove get to safety during one of Divatox's major attack on the city. Ashley was chosen by Tanya Sloan to take her place as the Yellow Ranger, taking over control of the Dune Star TurboZord and later gaining access to the Star Racer RescueZord.
When the Power Chamber was destroyed by Divatox and the defeated Power Rangers received word that the planet Eltar, home to their original mentor Zordon, had fallen to evil forces, Ashley and the other three new Turbo Rangers - T.J., Carlos, and Cassie - left Earth for outer space in a NASADA space shuttle, powerless but ready to fight to save Zordon.
In Space[]
- "Power Yellow!"
- ―roll call as Yellow Space Ranger[src]
Ashley and the other Rangers then met Andros, the Red Space Ranger, on the Astro Megaship, and she was given new powers as the Yellow Space Ranger, who later commanded the Mega V-4 (Saucer) Zord. When the Space Rangers returned to Earth, she enjoyed showing Andros her hometown. She discovered that he was telekinetic. Ashley offered to teach Andros billiards if he taught her how to use telekinesis. She would get distracted during the lessons, and thus never did get the hang of it. On Ashley's birthday, the monster Body Switcher had managed to make Astronema look like Ashley, and vice-versa. Ashley managed to escape, while disguised as Astronema and warned the other Rangers about the real Astronema posing as her. During battle, Andros got her Morpher, but had trouble telling who was the real Ashley, and he gained an idea, knowing only him and his fellow Rangers know how to activate the Morphers, he used that to his advantage, and gave Ashley her Morpher back.
She shared a love interest with Andros, who returned to Earth with her after the final battle in Power Rangers in Space.

The four remaining Space Rangers have appeared, ready to help. Everyone morphs, she fought Psycho Yellow alongside Maya, her Yellow Ranger successor and the Yellow Galaxy Ranger.
During her battle against Psycho Yellow, which was a hand-to-hand battle. Since because of her experience in combat and also her past battles against Psycho Yellow, Ashley easily defeated Psycho Yellow in combat, using her Star Slinger attacking Psycho Yellow.
