- "DoraSkeleton!"
- ―Dora Skelton's first and only words upon being created.[src]
Dora Skelton (ドーラスケルトン Dōra Sukeruton, 2) was a skeleton-themed Dora Monster created by Pleprechaun of the Bandora Gang.
History[]
Dora Skelton was the first Dora Monster created by Pleprechaun after he and the rest of the Bandora Gang were freed from their exile. At the time, Bandora had kidnapped a pair of young astronauts and Dora Skelton was dispatched to hamper the Zyuranger's rescue efforts.
Skelton ambushed Geki and teleported him to an amusement park. There the two battled, with Dora Skelton having the advantage. When the rest of the Zyurangers arrived they attempted to destroy his body. Unfortunately, Dora Skelton could reform his body. Firing energy beams from his eyes, Dora Skelton destroyed the Zyuranger's weapons. Losing the battle, the Zyurangers used their Dino Bucklers to transform in the hopes of gaining the advantage.
However, the Zyurangers were suddenly teleported by Skelton a dark, fog covered dimension. It was here that the space shuttle containing the two children was being held. While the Zyurangers were disorientated, Dora Skeleton was able to summon a small army of skeleton warriors to set upon his foes. While the heroes were distracted, Bookback and Totpat planted a bomb in the hopes of destroying the Zyurangers once and for all. Dora Skeleton was ultimately destroyed when the Zyurangers used their blasters to blow the creature into pieces. Before Dora Skeleton could reform, Dan took his head and threw it down to a lava trench destroying the monster. The barrier between dimensions was then ripped open by Dora Titan allowing the Zyurangers to escape just as the bomb went off. TV STORY-Ep. 2: The Revival Due to their original weapons being destroyed by Dora Skelton, the Zyurangers would go on a quest to find replacements in the form of the Legendary Weapons.
