Rita sent him to kidnappe all people in Angel Grove Youth Center, and then do the same in the city. Dramole sucessfuly kidnapped all visitors of the Center, including Billy, and then teleported them to the Dark Dimension, where people were in the zombie state and did orders of Rita. Then Dramole encountered the Rangers and used his gas on them. Gas was effective and Rangers were under the control of the villain. Then moster started the spraying of his gas in the city, but Tommy watched this and asked Zordon to restore some part of the power of Green Ranger. Tommy attacked Dramole, destroyed his spraying machine and freed his friends. Then Rita enlarged Dramole. In the giant size, Dramole could fire energy beams. But he was destroyed by Ultrazord. After he was destroyed all people he brainwashed, returned to the Center without the memories of the happened.
He was later recreated by Lord Zedd to guard the Rock of Time, but was defeated again. He was recreated once more by Finster to guard the abandoned Spectre Theater, also attending Zedd and Rita's wedding.
In "The Wedding", Dramole was among the monsters recreated by Finster where he attacked the Rangers at the Spectre Theater and attended Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa's wedding. He was one of the six monsters who was grown to giant size and he was destroyed again by the Thunder Megazord's Thunder Saber.

Notes
Dramole in Storage
- Dramole comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original Zyuranger. Dramole was intended to have been destroyed by the Megazord. However, it appears that the usage of the Dragonzord Battle Mode and Ultrazord in the battle footage was switched with Soccadillo.
- The second half of the zord battle features artificially darkened footage done in the same way as in the American version of the Cyclopsis battle. After Green Ranger arrives, the sky brightens up, Dramole is seen looking up at the sky in panic and is noticeably weaker than it was previously. The normal footage can be seen in the stock footage battle used in "The Wedding".
