Gakko was a Rinshi, member of Five Fingers of Poison and master of gecko fighting style. He served as the main antagonist of the episode "Can't Win Them All."
History[]
Gakko and the other four Fingers of Poison were called up by Camille to destroy the Jungle Fury Rangers. In the first battle with the Rangers, Gakko fought with Casey. TV STORY-A Taste of Poison
After Rantipede was defeated, Gakko decided to fight the Rangers on his own. Gakko was a master of the Gecko fighting style, which allows him to climb walls and regrow limbs, if need to be. He could climb the walls and shoot energy blasts form his Shurikens-Gakko. Gakko also thought that all great warriors could fight only at the side of the wall.
During his attack on Ocean Bluff, Gakko attacked civilians and encountered the Rangers. Gakko climbed the wall and the Rangers couldn't fight him. Gakko fought with Theo, then promptly departed.
Dai Shi ordered Gakko to destroy the Rangers the next time he fought against them. Gakko attacked the city with Camille and a horde of Rinshi. In the second battle, Gakko fought only with Casey and Lily. But then Theo arrrived and defeated Gakko, using his skills of balancing on the wall. He defeated Gakko and threw him down.
Gakko enlarged himself. In the giant battle Gakko separated his arm and it caught the Jungle Pride Megazord. But the Rangers freed themselves. Just like Rantipede before him, Gakko was destroyed by the Megazord's Savage Spin. TV STORY-Can't Win Them All
Later, Gakko, along with Rantipede, was revived by Naja to help him overthrow Dai Shi. But he fled as during the battle, Rantipede was destroyed by their vengeful master.
Gakko went to the city and started to absorb fear of people to become stronger. But the Rangers arrived and, after a battle, Gakko was destroyed again, this time by the Claw Cannon. TV STORY-Pizza Slice of Life
In the final battle, Gakko was revived by Dai Shi but was finally destroyed by RJ. TV STORY-Now the Final Fury
Personality[]
Gakko is cocky, arrogant, confident and boastful. He thought that using his style he can easily defeat the rangers. But he underestimated them, especially Theo and it led to his defeat. Gakko feared Dai Shi and was shown to be faithful to him. But when Naja asked Gakko to help him overthrow Dai Shi, Gakko agreed. Despite all of this Gakko was shown to be genuine friends with the other Fingers of Poison.
