This article is about a/an an army of grunts in Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger. |
The Batsuroids (バーツロイド Bātsuroido) are middle-grade robot foot soldiers sold by the Alienizer Agent Abrella. They are usually seen commanding a squad of the weaker Anaroids. Unlike their cheaper, weaker cousin model, they have the ability to speak, though only in a pre-programmed alien language.
Characteristics
Most Batsuroids are armed with the Batsushot (バーツショット Baatsushotto) guns mounted on one arm - both right-handed and left-handed versions are available, with the gun mounted on the opposite arm. There's also a version with no gun at all, which wields the Batsusword (バーツソード Baatsusōdo) short sword with an X-shaped blade instead. These two-handed variants are sometimes used for piloting mecha.
Although Batsuroids can be a problem in numbers, in one-on-one combat, it's rare for them to get the upper hand on a Dekaranger.
History
Flying Ghost Ship
Several Batsuroids were part of an army of Mechanoids led by Agent Abrella in Los Dark's ghost dimension which housed the 1500 spirits of the villains defeated by the Super Sentai. They confronted the five Gokaigers. Gokai Red left to take on Los Dark as his crew dealt with Abrella's army as the Dekarangers. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger the Movie: The Flying Ghost Ship
