Crustaceo is a Rinshi who holds the spirit of a hermit crab. He serves Jellica, and was the main antagonist of the episode "One Master Too Many".
History[]
Crustaceo was a Rinshi with a strong shell and weaponry, which included a drill on his right arm that could shoot red energy blasts. He was summoned by Jellica, who ordered him to create a hole in the ocean to create a tornado-like whirlpool. In the first battle with the Rangers his whirlpool was destroyed by Master Finn.
Later, Crustaceo attacked Casey, but was defeated by the Ranger's new Shark Sabers. When the other Rangers came, Crustaceo grew in his giant form, was still defeated by the Shark Animal Spirit. However, he used his ability to control the Zord and made it attack the Rangers.
In the third and final battle with the Rangers, Crustaceo again fought with Casey. As with their previous battle, Casey defeated him with the Shark Sabers and when he transformed into his giant form, he was defeated for good by the Jungle Pride Megazord with Shark Power.

Personality[]
Crustaceo is a cunning and unpredictable Rinshi who wants to defeat the Rangers at any cost, but he is genuinely loyal to Jellica.
Powers and Abilities[]
Powers[]
- Hermit Crab Spirit: Possessing the fighting style of a hermit crab, the basis for all of Crustaceo's powers includes:
- Body Possession: Crustaceo can possess other people's bodies by jumping into their mouths.
- Zord Control: Crustaceo can control Zords but only as long as they are living beings as shown when he controlled the Shark Animal Spirit and made it attack the Rangers.
- Enlarging: Just like all other Rinshi, Crustaceo can enlarge himself. Unlike other Rinshi however, he didn't seem to require any fear since he grew twice with the second time happening after.
Abilities[]
- Strength: Crustaceo possesses enough physical might to clash with the Rangers and Master Finn.
- Durability: Crustaceo has a large shell around his body that allowed him to survive the Shark Saber finisher with the Jungle Pride with Shark Power's finishing attack being the only thing able to stop him.
- Underwater Breathing: Being themed after a creature that can live in the sea, Crustaceo can survive underwater.

Arsenal[]
- Right Drill Arm: Crustaceo has a large white-pink drill in place of his right arm that he can use in combat.
- Energy Blasts: Crustaceo can charge up his drill arm with red energy and fire energy blasts of the same color from it. This was only used against Casey during their final battle but had no effect.
- Spiraling Great Shell Spin: Crustaceo's strongest attack where (whilst underwater) he lunges forth and spins his drill to bore through his enemies. This was used as a last resort attack against the Jungle Pride Megazord with Shark Power but was futile.
