"No. Wait. I thought we destroyed that thing before."
Ziggy when confronted by the Generation 16 Saw Bot.[src]

Generation 16 Saw Bot was one of the Venjix's Attack Bots and the main antagonist of the episode "Belly of the Beast".

History

After the destruction of the Saw Bot Generation 15, Venjix uses all the information the Attack Bot has collected and programs him into the Generation 16 Saw Bot. This new version of the Saw Bot is equipped with all of the Megazords' attacks, powers, and weaknesses.

Venjix sends the Saw Bot to attack the Ranger Operators and Corinth City security force that are gathered at Sector 17 as they plan to attack the Venjix factory. His mission is to either destroy them all or at least keep them occupied enough for Venjix to launch a Doomsday Device in order to obliterate Corinth's shields.

The Generation 16 Saw Bot arrives and starts attacking so the city forces try to blast him but are ineffective against the Saw Bot's armor. The Rangers jump in and start battling him and the Grinders he has brought along but they too find themselves to be no match for the new Saw Bot. Doctor K then orders Gem and Gemma to place an explosive on the Attack Bot to blow him away and the twins were successfully with a blast sending the Saw Bot flying for miles.

The Generation 16 Saw Bot soon returns as Scott, Dillon, and Summer are making their way through the factory. Dillon and Summer hold the Attack Bot off while Red goes to place the remaining charges. The Attack Bot is far too powerful, forcing the two Rangers to use up all their power so Summer then battles the Attack Bot by herself thus allowing Dillon the chance to blow up the factory.

While the Attack Bot is inside the factory during the explosion, he still survives so Gem and Gemma are next line to battle the beast. They morph and are able to take him down with their SkyShift Blazers due to them being outside of the city when his predecessor was active and thus Saw Bot is not immune.

However, Venjix orders the download to revive and grow the Attack Bot at which point he enters Corinth. Since the Attack Bot knows every power and move of the Megazords, there is no use in sending the High Octane or ValveMax Megazords against him. However, Doctor K activates a new Megazord formation just for Gem and Gemma using the doomsday weapon repurposed as the Whale Zord (reprogrammed from the Doomsday Device). The twins form their Mach Megazord and go to fight the Saw Bot with which they have the advantage and blast the Generation 16 Saw Bot. They then finish him off with the Mach Megazord's Energy Power Bow attack which rips through and obliterates the Attack Bot.

Personality

Like his predecessor, this Saw Bot spoke only in chainsaw sound effect but was very loyal to Venjix.

Powers and Abilities

Powers

  • Explosions: The Generation 16 Saw Bot could cause large explosions but how he did so is unknown.
  • Chest Buzzsaw Barrage: The Generation 16 Saw Bot could fire a barrage of buzzsaws from his chest.
  • Megazord Powers: Although never used, according to Dr. K, the Generation 16 Saw Bot had all of the powers of the High Octane Megazord, the ValveMax Megazord, and the Zenith Megazord, except for the Mach Megazord.

Abilities

  • Strength: Being the upgraded incarnation of the previous Saw Bot, the Generation 16 Saw Bot's strength was greatly improved to the point of easily overwhelming three Ranger Operators at once.
  • Armor: The Generation 16 Saw Bot had improved armor that meant that even lasers from the Corinth City Force's blasters just bounced off of it.

Weaknesses

  • New Weapons: Although the Generation 16 Saw Bot was immune to almost all Ranger weapons, he is very vulnerable to weapons not used against his predecessor which is why Gem and Gemma were able to destroy him.

Arsenal

  • Chainsaw Arms: Unlike the original Saw Bot, the Generation 16 Saw Bot had chainsaws on both of his arms use in combat.

Behind the Scenes

  • The Generation 16 Saw Bot has no known voice actor.
