Cyclopter is a cyclops demon, created by Loki and the primary villain of the episode "The Chosen Path".
History[]
Cyclopter was summoned by Loki to show Olympius that he is not lazy, he beats up three Batlings and was about to challenge Vypra, but he changes his mind, he then demands for more of a challenge, to which Loki gladly takes him to Mariner Bay to fight the Lightspeed Rangers.
He goes to a Dojo to lure the Rangers and defeats all five of them in hand-to-hand combat, Mr. Tamashiro (Chad's former mentor) comes in and mocks the demon by throwing a milk carton at him. Annoyed, Cyclopter was about to strike Mr. Tamashiro down, but Mr. Tamashiro easily dodged Cyclopter's punch and successfully beats the monster by throwing him down the stairs. Surprised and embarrassed that he was defeated, he runs off in shame.
Cyclopter then pays the sensei a visit with an army of Batlings (all of them dressed in karate outfits) and begs to be trained, vowing that he has turned "good", Mr. Tamashiro did not believe him, just then a confused Loki comes by to ask what's going one, only for Cyclopter to shove Loki down to the ground and saying that he has "changed", Loki then leaves in anger.
The sensei then accepts so as to spite Chad, and trains the monster, Chad comes by and tries to warn him, but he didn't believe him and Cyclopter took Chad down.
When Cyclopter finds out that the training is complete, he takes out the old man and takes off to wreak havoc on Mariner Bay, now calling himself Cyclopter the "Invincible", the four Lightspeed Rangers came in (with the exception of Chad who is looking for his master) and battle the monster.
They were all easily defeated, but Chad came in for a rematch and successfully defeats the monster at hand-to-hand combat. Cyclopter wasn't finish yet however and summons his weapon. Chad morphed into the Blue Lightspeed Ranger and all the Rangers battle the monster, but all of them were defeated and the Blue Ranger was left to fight.
Cyclopter was no match for the Blue Ranger and was destroyed by the Blue Ranger's V-Lancer, but he grows large thanks to Jinxer and the Omega Megazord was summoned to battle the Cyclopter in a hand-to-hand combat battle. Cyclopter had the upper hand at first, but the Megazord was able to throw him down and finally defeat him by using the Omega Lance finisher.
