The Dogormin Bodyguards (親衛隊ドゴーミン Shin'eitai Dogōmin) are the personal bodyguards of the Zangyack emperor. They are always seen working in groups of two.
History[]
The Dogormin are similar to Sugormin, but are red in color. Despite this resemblance, the Dogormin warned that their enemies would be wise not to judge them on their appearance, claiming to be even more powerful than the average Action Commander. They armed with spears that they can use together to fire blasts in the shape of the Zangyack's Escutcheon. They are also capable of teleporting in order to enter and withdraw from battle and possess their own fleet of purple-colored Zangyack Battleships. They were led by Deratsueigar before his death at the hands of the Gokaigers.
The Dogormin are normally seen by the emperor's side in the throne room, but are occasionally sent out on imperial business. Their flagship brought Deratsueigar to the Gigant Horse to help Warz Gill in his efforts for the second invasion of Earth. TV STORY-Ep. 11: The Serious Rebellion
Later on, their flagship docked at the Gigant Horse where the Dogormin present Warz with a gift from his father: the Giant Robo, Great Warz. They arrived on Earth and confronted the Gokaigers (bar Joe; who was fighting Barizorg) after they defeated a force of Gormin and Sugormin and were infuriated when Luka mocked them. Despite the Dogormin taking an early lead in the battle, the Gokaigers transformed into Sentai Allies (Captain Marvelous as Wolzard Fire, Gai as Black Knight, Luka as Zubaan, Don as Signalman and Ahim as DekaSwan) and were able to counter the Dogormin and force them into withdrawing. TV STORY-Ep. 37: The Strongest Fighting Machine
The Dogormin reappeared after all the Gokaigers are reunited, commanding a platoon of Gormin and Zgormin to find and destroy the Gokaigers. When the Gokaigers wiped out the platoon, they tried to attack the Gokaigers with their energy shots, only for all of them to either miss or deflected by the pirates' weapons. They are then destroyed by a Rising Strike/Gokai Legendream combo attack. TV STORY-Ep. 38: The Power to Seize Dreams
Two more appear when Ackdos Gill himself arrive onboard the Gigant Horse. They drag away and imprison Damaras for failing to protect Warz Gill. TV STORY-Ep. 41: Something I Don't Want to Lose
During an assault on the Gokaigers two enlarged Dogormin are seen fighting GoZyuRex and two more fighting the remaining Gokaigers on the ground, but are quickly defeated by Gai when he transforms GoJyuRex into GoJyuJin and when the remaining Gokaigers use the GokaiGalleon Buster. Later, two more appears as guards in the cell holding Damaras. TV STORY-Ep. 42: The Strongest Man in the Universe
When Marvelous was captured, the Emperor decided he would have a public execution, with a pair of Dogormin as the executioners. However, they were stopped by Don. The Dogormin then proceeded to attack the Gokaigers, but were quickly defeated by them after they all changed into Green Rangers. TV STORY-Ep. 43: To the Legendary Hero
On Christmas Eve, a pair of Dogormin accompanied Bibaboo when he tried to turn everyone into dolls. The Dogormin were destroyed by the Gokaigers after they all changed into Yellow Rangers. TV STORY-Ep. 44: A Lovely Christmas Eve
When Insarn went to take on the Gokaigers, Ackdos Gill sent four Dogormin to back her up. While a group of five Sugormin fought the GoZyuJin, the Gokaigers changed into representatives of the five last teams whose Greater Powers they collected. Captain Marvelous took on Insarn while the other four fought a Dogormin each. The Dogormin were destroyed shortly before Insarn was finished off. TV STORY-The Greatest Treasure in the Universe
When Ackdos Gill began Zangyack's final invasion of Earth, the Gokaigers stood up to them. Marvelous turned into TyrannoRanger, then becoming Armed TyrannoRanger when Gai as DragonRanger gave him his power. Marvelous managed to swiftly take down two Dogormin. TV STORY-Ep. 50: The Day of Battle
When Marvelous and Gai arrived on the Gigant Horse, they stormed into the bridge where the Emperor was and immediately destroyed two Dogormin with their Final Wave attacks. Whatever Dogormin were left afterwards were likely annihilated when both the Gigant Horse and the Zangyack fleet were wiped out, as they do not come to aid Ackdos Gill in his final confrontation of the Gokaigers. The emperor died at the hands of the Gokaigers soon after, and so the Space Empire Zangyack would fragment into divided factions over the following month. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates
Super Hero Taisen[]
A seemingly limitless number of Dogormin would serve as the minions of the revived Dai-Zangyack army led by the new Emperor Gokai Red to wipe out the Kamen Riders, ensuring the survival of the Super Sentai. As part of the Zangyack force, the Dogormin participated in the attack on Amanogawa High School in which Gokai Red fought its resident Kamen Riders Fourze and Ryusei Sakuta. After Tsukasa and Marvelous' ruse was revealed and Dai-Zangyack joined with Dai-Shocker to form the Shocker-Zangyack Alliance, the combined army was wiped out by a gathering of Kamen Riders and Super Sentai.

Super Hero Taisen Z[]
A duo of Dogormin were part of an army of resurrected (mostly Super Sentai) monsters led by Space Raider after the revival of Madou Demon King Psycho. They proceeded to attack the gathering of Kamen Riders and Super Sentai, giving them a hard time. The heroes of recent years were in a pinch until the arrival of a force of Sentai and Rider reinforcements led by Akarenger and Kamen Rider Ichigo. The combined forces of superheroes were able to turn the tide against the Madou army. They lined up and used their various finisher attacks to destroy the revived monsters.
