 This article is about a Ranger in Power Rangers RPM.
|
Flynn A. McAllistair[1] is Ranger Operator Series Blue, alternately referred to as Ranger Blue, and is second-in-command of the Ranger Operators in Power Rangers RPM. His operation number is two.
Retroactively, he is also referred to as the RPM Blue Ranger or Blue RPM Ranger, though these are in reference to the show as opposed to proper labels.
History[]
Background[]
While Flynn was a mechanic by trade, a skill taught to him by his father, Flynn expressed a strong desire to help others like the superheroes in the comic books he frequently read as a child. However, more often than not, it would get him in trouble. His father didn't approve of his son's wish to save people, who believed and insisted there was no such thing as superheroes. Despite this, Flynn remained true to what he believed and what he knew he wanted to do: help people. After graduating from high school, he finally got that chance to do what he always wished to. Not realizing the full responsibilities that came along with such line of work, his passion for helping others tended to get in the way, as he usually overdid his jobs (ex. arresting the mayor's son, spraying a burning building to the point of unnecessary water damage, and then wanting to go back into the said building to save the plants) and was subsequently fired from all of them.
As soon as Venjix attacked, both he and his father fled to Corinth, but Flynn, seeing that there were still many people who had yet to make it into the domed city, went back outside to save a busload of people. With his skills, he eventually made it unharmed back to Corinth. His actions finally impressed his father, who now wholeheartedly supports and is proud of his son.
TV STORY-Ranger Blue
Becoming a Hero[]
Flynn's dream of becoming a true superhero finally came true when he was selected to become Ranger Operator Series Blue.
Dillon and Ziggy's arrival resulted in feelings of distrust from Flynn, due to the nature of Dillon's mechanical upgrades, but Flynn was still less antagonistic than Scott over the matter, willing to allow Dillon on-board if the group consensus felt it was best. Ziggy joining the team produced quite a bit more incredulity in him, however. Despite any initial feelings of doubt, he seems to have since fully embraced the two as official members of the team.
Later when all the Zords are trashed, he and Gemma create the Road Attack Zord. TV STORY-Not So Simple
After his tenure as a Ranger is done and Venjix is destroyed, he opens up a shop with his dad, and says that they are going to create new computer networks for the Corinth. TV STORY-Danger and Destiny

Personality[]
Speaking with a Scottish accent, Flynn is generally laid-back in personality, and is a fairly agreeable person. As a mechanic, he often spends time working on his personal vehicle, a Hummer H1, and is proficient at making smoothies, which seem to be a hobby for him. He uses his general knowledge of machinery and appliances to help out with analyzing Ranger tech and, even once rivaling Doctor K's understanding of the Ranger technology, as well as creating an entirely new Zord with Gemma's assistance. He also appears to be very skillful at driving and handling heavy-duty vehicles, as evidenced by his bus driving skills, his truck, and his big-rig inspired Zord. Flynn always wants to help out, insisting on helping Doctor K when he is unable to fight in Ranger Blue.
