Rantipede was a Rinshi, master of the centipede fighting style and first of Five Fingers of Poison to fight the Jungle Fury Rangers. He served as the main antagonist of the episode "A Taste of Poison."
History[]
Rantipede and the other four Fingers of Poison were called up by Camille, to destroy the Rangers. Rantipede was the master of the centipede fighting style, which emphasizes rapid punching. He always wore a brown paper sack with an X on it on his head, as well as similar paper coverings on his arms and legs. He had the ability to attack his opponents with one hundred punches.
After his first battle with the Rangers, Rantipede decided to fight them on his own and challenged Casey for a duel. But Lily came instead of Casey. Lily, the Yellow Ranger, used her speed and defeated Rantipede in the duel.
When the other Rangers came, Rantipede showed his true face, made of a centipede's coiled tail and after absorbing enough fear he enlarged himself. During the battle with Jungle Pride Megazord, Rantipede uncoiled the tail from his head and wrapped it around the Megazord. But the Megazord twisted around and freed itself. Rantipede was finally destroyed by the Megazord's Savage Spin Attack.
