Bad Bookala was a Kabuki monster and a minor antagonist in the episode “The Great Bookala Escape.”
History
Bad Bookala is created by Lord Zedd from the cockpit of Serpentera after the Rangers successfully help the peaceful alien Bookala escape back to his home planet and cripple the Evil Zord with a fake Lightning Diamond. Following in the steps of the Weldo monster, Bad Bookala's mission is to get revenge on the Rangers for Zedd's failed plan by destroying them all.
Bad Bookala is created from a fake Bookala doll the Rangers used to trick Zedd; the Rangers know right away that he is a fake because Zedd has decided to create him right in front of them. Before they can begin to form the Power Blaster, Zedd quickly decides to make Bad Bookala grow with a Growth Bomb which the monster catches and uses on himself.
The Rangers form the Thunder Megazord so Bad Bookala prepares himself before using his long and deadly black tongue to wrap up the Thunder Megazord. However, the Rangers free themselves by slicing the tongue directly in two with the Thunder Saber, which sends the monster flying. Bad Bookala is then thrown into the air by a tornado sent from the Thunder Saber and slain once he hits the ground. As the Thunder Megazord sheathes its Thunder Saber, Bad Bookala flails before exploding.
Personality
Unlike the peaceful alien Bookala who was kind, timid and friendly, Bad Bookala was sinister, villainous, and spiteful and wanted to destroy the Power Rangers completely. Both Bookala and his evil doppelgänger talked with oddly organized grammar, but Bad Bookala used far more violent and antagonistic terminology.
