Biography
Barakouzza served Grizzaka. Grizzaka summoned him and ordered him to attack Ocean Bluff and destroy the Power Rangers. He attacked the city and encountered the Rangers. Barakouzza could, like a cowboy, fire two water jets from his arms, which also possessed electric shocks. After a brief fight on the ground, Barakouzza enlarged himself and fought with the Rangers' Zords. However, RJ again transformed into a werewolf and attacked his friends. Barakouzza escaped and returned to Grizzaka, reporting to him. Then Barakouzza returned to the city and attacked the electro station, where he fought only two Jungle Fury Rangers, Theo and Lily. The heroes were quickly outmatched and he summoned Rinshi to battle them. However, Casey and RJ then arrived and aided their friends. After the battle, Barakouzza was destroyed with the attack from the Wolf Morpher. Grizzaka revived him as a giant using the power of Zocato. Barakouzza fought the Rangers and easily defeated the Wolf Pride Megazord with his water jets. He was destroyed by the Jungle Master Megazord and Wolf Pride Megazord; the latter dealing the killing blow with its Spin Fury attack. TV STORY-True Friends, True Spirits
