Biography
Commander Crayfish was created by Finster, on the orders of Rita. Rita planned to destroy Power Rangers, using her own team of Mutant Rangers. Five Putties were chosen for this role and they used Badges of Darkness to transform into evil clones of Rangers. Commander Crayfish was chosen to replace the Jason, the Red Ranger, as none of the Putties was worthy to become the Red Ranger. He wielded a similar version of Rangers's Power Sword. Then Rita sent them all to Earth. Together they fought the Rangers, but persistence and courage of heroes helped them defeat the villains. Then Rita enlarged them all, but after the long battle they were all destroyed by Ultrazord's Laser Blasts.
