Goatan (trophy)

The Noble Lion Trophy

Goatan (also known as the Storm Bringer) was a weather-controlling sports themed chimera monster who served as the primary antagonist of the episode "Lions & Blizzards".

History

Goatan is created by Rita when she casts a spell on the Noble Lion Trophy that Bulk and Skull stole from a karate monster in the countryside outside Angel Grove as they are bitter over losing. The enchantment to do so is "Scabs, weasels, moons of Cryon make me a monster -- half goat, half lion." Goatan is able to control the environment and his weapons are a crossbow and a hockey stick. When the trophy turns into Goatan, Bulk and Skull get scared as Goatan attacks, resulting in them offering the monster catnip because of his lion head. Enraged, Goatan blasts the duo with energy streamers until they fall into the nearby pond. Goatan's weather-controlling ability affect Angel Grove and even caused it to be placed under a tornado warning.

Goatan then go to the quarry whilst Zordon briefs four of the Power Rangers (bar Zack who is on a date with Angela). When he is challenged by four of the Rangers, Goatan easily overpowers them, beating them soundly. Even Kimberly and her Power Bow are useless as the monster deflects several arrows and his bow is stronger than her own by slicing through her arrow and striking her out of the sky. Although Jason blasts him down with his Blade Blaster and makes him lose his bow, he instead picks up and swings around a tree log, sending the Rangers flying onto the beach where he envelops them in a giant energy cyclone generated by the mouth of the goat head. Luckily, Alpha manages to contact Zack who tears himself away from Angela. He morphs, arrives, and takes Goatan down with his Power Axe. With the monster down, Rita has to make him grow so the Rangers summon their Dinozords and form the Megazord. Generating a snowstorm during the fight, Goatan proves to be a complete match for the Megazord until he is punched down so he unleashes a spray of his ice breath, encasing the Megazord in a thick sheet of ice. Goatan then draws a hockey stick and charges but Zack had the idea to make the Megazord spin off the snow, both shaking off the snow and hypnotizing Goatan in the process. It quickly gets free and punches him down before Zack summons the Power Sword. Goatan charges but is slain by an energy slash, being bowled over backwards and exploding on impact with the ground.

Unlike most objects that get turned into monsters, the Noble Lion Trophy was not restored after Goatan's destruction.

Dora Chimera's defeat

  • Goatan was the final monster from Zyuranger to debut in the show.
  • The shot of Goatan falling from the Power Axe blow cut out him falling on his face and exploding.
  • Goatan was arguably the most dangerous monster in all of Season 1 since his powers could have utterly destroyed the Earth and he may have even finished off the Rangers had he not been mesmerized by the spinning Megazord.
