Burnertron is a candle-themed Robotron in Power Rangers Beast Morphers, who appears as the primary villain of the episode Seeing Red.
History
Burnertron was created by Roxy from a candle set outside of a café to help her fight Devon in Red Fury Mode before trying to give him a Fury Cell. However, Devon snatched it using his super speed and was able to recharge his armor so Burnertron joined Roxy in the attack. He and Roxy were thrashed by the more powerful Devon and Roxy teleported herself and Burnertron away. He later returned to Earth, along with Roxy, with two assignments, to get Devon to use the last Fury Cell to become evil and collect the final Beast Power Data using a Data Chip.
To this end, he, Roxy, and some Tronics attacked the city before four of the Rangers arrived and morphed but Roxy tried to give him a Fury Cell only for Devon to snatch it and power up but also turn evil. Seeing this, Roxy retreated on foot and Burnertron stopped them from going after her and fought them. They took him down with their Beast Blast attack but he was unfazed and seemed to flee whilst they watched Devon fight against the evil. However, they apparently tracked him to under an overpass and surprised him but he proved to be virtually impossible to defeat. He managed to take all three of them down with his lance just as Burnerdrone arrived but continued battle after the Racer Zord attacked it. He maintained the upper hand until Nate shot his lance out of his hand and they summoned their Striker Sabers at which point his head candle was put out by Nate and Steel using their Striker Beast Slash. With the monster critically weakened Zoey, Steel and Nate used their Beast-X Blaster and Striker Morphers to combine their Beast Blast and Striker Beast Blast finishers and destroy Burnertron for good. However, the data chip was still intact and Roxy later retrieved it. TV STORY-Seeing Red
