Basco with the stolen Greater Powers of Sun Vulcan, Changeman, Flashman, Maskman and Fiveman
In order to obtain the Greatest Treasure in the Universe, the Gokaigers must unlock the Greater Powers (大いなる力,Ōinaru Chikara) of the previous 34 Super Sentai teams before them. Each Greater Power they hunt for has an associated lesson with it.
By unlocking the Greater Power of a previous team's Ranger Keys, the Gokaigers can access special powers, often activated with GokaiOh, based on the previous Super Sentai teams' mecha; or special powers that power up GokaiOh through gaining approvals from a member of the past Super Sentai teams. Most of the powers manifesting as mechas are completely redesigned and don the Gokaigers' symbol. The unlocking of a Greater Power is signaled when the Ranger Keys of the team that has been unlocked start to glow.
During the events of Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle, the Gokaigers obtain eleven Greater Powers from past Super Sentai teams (Gorenger, J.A.K.Q, Denziman, Goggle-V, Dynaman, Bioman, Turboranger, Dairanger, Boukenger, Go-Onger, and Goseiger).
Aside from the Gokaigers, Basco managed to capture five Greater Powers into his possession (Sun Vulcan, Changeman, Flashman, Maskman, and Fiveman). Eventually, the search for the Greater Powers ended with the Gokaigers in possession of all 35 along with the Greatest Treasure in the Universe itself after they defeated Basco and took his five Greater Powers.

Greater Power is a yellow aura existing inside a Ranger and shared among the Sentai team's members. This power can be stored in the Ranger Keys to be used by the Gokaigers. It can also be concentrated in form of energy balls, identified by the team's respective logos, after being stolen by Basco, which then can be absorbed into the Ranger Keys.
The Greater Power of a Sentai team can be transferred remotely to the Ranger Keys when at least one member of the team approves the Gokaiger's worthiness. It can be transferred directly via a physical contact with the keys as well. Once the power is taken from a member of the Sentai team, all other members' Power will be lost too.
It is revealed that inexperienced Sentai teams may be unaware of their own Greater Powers, like in cases of Gokaigers and Go-Busters. Some non-Ranger heroes also possess a Greater Power that the Gokaigers can use, such as the Kamen Riders.
Variblune (バリブルーン,Bariburūn): The Variblune was the original mobile fortress of the Gorengers. Although it was destroyed and replaced with the Varidorin, it returns to combine with GokaiOh to form Goren GokaiOh (ゴレンゴーカイオー,Goren Gōkaiō), and uses the Gokai Hurricane: Cassiopeia (ゴーカイハリケーン・カシオペア,Gōkai Harikēn: Kashiopea) for a finisher.
Before that, after they gained the Magirangers' Greater Power of MagiDragon, Luka (Gokai Yellow) tried to summon the Greater Power of JAKQ, which, seeing as how the Magiranger's Greater Power was a dragon, guessed was the "J.A.K.Q. Blitzkrieg Dragon" (ジャッカー電撃ドラゴン,Jakkā Dengeki Doragon), but nothing came out of GokaiOh. The Gokaigers soon realized that they would have to find the 33 remaining Greater Powers themselves. TV STORY-Ep. 4: What are Friends For?
Ultimately, this Greater Power was never used in the show's run.
After the Gokaigers gained the Magirangers' Greater Power of MagiDragon, Luka (Gokai Yellow) tried to summon the Greater Power of Battle Fever, which, seeing as how the Magirangers' Greater Power was a dragon, guessed was the "Dragon Fever" (ドラゴンフィーバー,Doragon Fībā), but nothing came out of GokaiOh. The Gokaigers soon realized that they would have to find all 33 remaining Greater Powers themselves. TV STORY-Ep. 4: What are Friends For?
Ultimately, this Greater Power was never used in the show's run.
Super Dynamite (スーパーダイナマイト,Sūpā Dainamaito): The Dynamen's original group finisher, using the explosive power they harnass to join into a powerful ball of light which explodes on contact; it is eventually upgraded into a New Super Dynamite which turns the whole team into a spiraling fireball. Dynaman's Greater Power was granted to the Gokaigers by Rei Tachibana (DynaPink) during the return of the Black Cross King. TV STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle
The Dynaman Greater Power gave Goren GokaiOh enough explosive power to fly through a fleet of Zangyack Battleships as a spinning fireball similar to New Super Dynamite, causing them to explode in the Gokai Super Dynamite (ゴーカイスーパーダイナマイト,Gōkai Sūpā Dainamaito) attack. TV STORY-Ep. 50: The Day of Battle
Earth Force (アースフォース,Āsufōsu): The mysterious yet very powerful energy utilized by the Changemen during their tenure as an active Sentai team. The Changeman Greater Power summons the Earth Force of all the Changemen and stores it within the Gokai Ho (similar to the formation of the Power Bazooka shell after the team unlocked all of their Earth Force) then fires out the cannonball-like mass of energy with immense force in the attack known as the Gokai Power Bazooka (ゴーカイパワーバズーカ,Gōkai Pawā Bazūka).
After the Gokaigers defeat Basco, it was formally issued by Shou. TV STORY-Ep. 49: The Greatest Treasure in the Universe However, it still remains unknown if he was the EDF member that Basco had attacked or not.
The Greater Power of the Flashmen (フラッシュマンの大いなる力,Furasshuman no Ōinaru Chikara) was taken by Basco sometime before he took the Changeman Greater Power and the failed attempt at the Ohranger Greater Power. TV STORY-Ep. 31: Crash!! Secret Operations Where and how Basco obtained the Greater Power is unknown: due to the Flashman's biology, they can only last a limited period of time on Earth before the effects of the Anti-Flash Phenomenon kicks in. While the Flashman would have easily taken part in the Legend War without any ill effect, whether they returned to the Flash System or remained on Earth after the war is unknown.
Likewise, due to Basco's ability to traverse space with the Free Joker, he could have invaded one of the Flash planets to take the Greater Power either before coming to Earth or in the midst of his Greater Power hunt as a side quest if the Flashman were not on Earth itself after the Legend War.
Aura Power (オーラパワー,Ōra Pawā): Aura is an energy source manipulated and controlled by the Maskmen; this is similar in concept as the Changeman's Earth Force, the Dairangers' Chi and the Gekirangers' Fierce Chi. While it is possessed by the Maskman themselves, Aura is also possessed by their second mecha, Galaxy Robo, which can utilize its power in sync with the team with its possession of an Aura Heart.
The Greater Power of the Maskman allows for Aura to surround GokaiOh's right hand, which does a front flip-flying karate chop known as the Gokai Aura Galaxy (ゴーカイオーラギャラクシー,Gōkai Ōra Gyarakushī), which is similar to Iron Fist Aura Galaxy, Galaxy Robo's finisher, except the part to assume vehicle mode to build up speed.
Super LiveRobo (スーパーライブロボ,Sūpā Raibu Robo): The combination of LiveRobo and Live Boxer, as well as the first combination of two individual robots into a single powerful robot, Super LiveRobo returns via the Liveman Keys by transforming GokaiOh and later Wild Tousai King into said Sentai Robo for the Super Big Burst (スーパービッグバースト,Sūpā Biggu Bāsuto) finisher. The Liveman's Greater Power was granted to the Gokaigers by Jou Ohara (Yellow Lion) for Joe Gibken gaining an understanding about the importance of life. TV STORY-Ep. 30: Just a Lone Friend's Soul
Jet Phoenix (ジェットフェニックス,Jetto Fenikkusu): The finisher of Jet Icarus while in the Icarus Haken formation; a similar phoenix mode was likewise used by the Jetman themselves during the final battle with Radiguet. While the Gokaigers are able to use an attack that allows them to assume the form of a Jet Phoenix (ジェットフェニックス,Jetto Fenikkusu)-like firebird as their finishing move as the Jetmen, Gai Yuki (Black Condor), the one who granted the Gokaigers the Jetman's Greater Power, believes his Sentai team's true Greater Power is the will to overcome any obstacle, even death. TV STORY-Ep. 28: Wings are Eternal
The Gokaigers later reused this Greater Power in Goren GokaiOh against a fleet of Zangyack Battleships right after using the Dynaman Greater Power for the Gokai Jet Phoenix (ゴーカイジェットフェニックス,Gōkai Jetto Fenikkusu) ramming attack, where it turned Goren GokaiOh into a fiery bird. TV STORY-Ep. 50: The Day of Battle
The Gokaigers, as Jetmen, initiating the Jet Phoenix
The Greater Power resurfaces later, as well as Ryo, and during the fight, the Gokaigers in GokaiOh accessed the power of Chi for the Gokai Gozyu Chi-Power Bomber (ゴーカイ豪獣気力ボンバー,Gōkai Gōjū Kiryoku Bonbā), where GokaiOh charges immense levels of Qi within it, then infuses the energy into Gozyujin, then attacks (while being backed by GokaiOh) drill arm-first through the target. TV STORY-Ep. 33: Iiiit's a Hero!!
Ninjaman (ニンジャマン,Ninjaman): The pupil of the Three Shinshou, he was an ally of the Kakurangers. He was sealed within a pot as punishment in the Negakure Temple, to be released in ten years. After the Gokaigers release him, he decides to observe the Gokaigers to see if they are worthy to have the Kakurangers' Greater Power. Tsuruhime (NinjaWhite) had originally planned to meet the Gokaigers, but decided to leave it to Ninjaman instead after being impressed that they managed to find him. TV STORY-Ep. 45: The Confused Ninja The Gokaigers then gain Ninjaman's approval and gained the Kakurangers' Greater Power, which unknowingly was himself. Ninjaman is the final free Greater Power the Gokaigers obtained. TV STORY-Ep. 46: Hero Eligibility
It is used in the completion of the Gokai Galleon Buster, the Gokaigers' powerful team cannon which is powered by loading Ranger Keys similar to how the Olé Bazooka was loaded with Hyper Storage Crystals. The Greater Power itself is to bring the powers of a team together for a devastating attack. TV STORY-Ep. 32: One Power
The Greater Power of the Carrangers (カーレンジャーの大いなる力,Kārenjā no Ōinaru Chikara): While GokaiOh is able to perform Gokai Radical Racing Slash (ゴーカイ激走斬り Gokai Gekisou Giri), an attack that resembles the finishing attack of RV Robo, Kyosuke states that the Carrangers' pose is the actual Greater Power of the Carrangers, leading Navi to believe that some Greater Powers are useless.
Mega Wing (メガウイング,Mega Uingu): A component of MegaSilver's jet-like personal mecha, Mega Winger, to fight alongside the other Megarangers; he usually let the Megarangers use a Mega Wing glider to become Wing Mega Voyager. Similar to this, the Greater Power of the Megarangers gives Gozyujin Mega Winger's Mega Wing, the formation being called Wing Gozyujin (ウイング豪獣神,Uingu Gōjūjin).
With the Megaranger Greater Power, Wing Gozyujin can attack drill-arm first in the Gokai Spartan (ゴーカイスパルタン,Gōkai Suparutan) attack. TV STORY-Ep. 50: The Day of Battle
The Greater Power of the Gingamen (ギンガマンの大いなる力,Gingaman no Ōinaru Chikara) is transferred to the Black Knight Key by Hyuga after his approval and gives it to Gai after Basco tried to take the Greater Power from Hyuga. TV STORY-Ep. 20: The Lost Forest
Fire Hoses (消火ホース,Shōka Hōsu): When the Gokaigers use the GoGoFive Keys, they summon five large Chemical Extinguishers from GokaiOh's hatches and the Gokai Hō; similar to the Chemical Extinguishers of the Blue Thrower used to put out fires, either on its own or in the Victory Walker formation. The hoses allow GokaiOh to perform the Victory Splash (ビクトリースプラッシュ,Bikutorī Supurasshu) attack, dousing any sort of fire with five streams of highly-pressurized water. Then, this is given way for the Gokai Prominence (ゴーカイプロミネンス,Gōkai Purominensu) attack, where GokaiOh is surrounded by fire, much like Victory Robo, then slashes the opponent with an x-slash, similar to Victory Mars's Mars Flare.
GaoLion (ガオライオン,GaoRaion): GaoRed's totem Power Animal, GaoLion normally resides on the Sky Island Animarium since the defeat of the Orgs before the GokaiGalleon crew and the Zangyack arrived. He proceeds to knock them off, but his later acceptance of the Gokaigers as Super Sentai enabled him to be summoned to fight alongside them.
He can combine with GokaiOh to form Gao GokaiOh (ガオゴーカイオー,Gao Gōkaiō), a centaur-type formation similar to GaoKentaurus. Gao GokaiOh's finishing attack is the Gokai Animal Heart (ゴーカイアニマルハート,Gōkai Animaru Hāto), releasing a powerful energy beam from Gao Lion's mouth while executing two powerful slashes from the Gokai Ken swords. Substituting for the Shishi Origami, it can also form Shinken GokaiOh (シンケンゴーカイオー,Shinken Gōkaiō), the result of the Shinkengers' Greater Power. The Gokaigers gain access to GaoLion after Marvelous, Joe, and Luka saved a crowd of citizens from Action CommanderBowser and a platoon of Gomin, making them worthy in GaoLion's eyes to wield its power. TV STORY-Ep. 9: Lion, Run
Karakuri Warrior Fūraimaru (カラクリ武者 風雷丸,Karakuri Musha Fūraimaru) is the combination of the FūraiHead and FūraiKnuckleKarakuri Balls. Unlike its original form, Fūraimaru is green instead of navy blue, with elements of Tenkujin. While the sun/moon is still on his body, it doesn't make up a majority of his body and it isn't on his chest. Fuuraimaru rides on a large shuriken that he uses as a weapon and can perform the Secret Finisher Crucifixion Shuriken (必殺奥義・磔手裏剣,Hissatsu Ōgi Haritsuke Shuriken), throwing the shuriken at an opponent. He combines with GokaiOh to form Hurricane GokaiOh (ハリケンゴーカイオー,Hariken Gōkaiō), Hurricane Gokaioh resembling Senpujin. It is covered with shuriken and is armed with a weapon called the Shushutto Shuriken Chain (シュシュッと手裏剣チェーン,Shushutto Shuriken Chēn). It has an attack called the Gokai Infinite Shuriken (ゴーカイ無限手裏剣,Gōkai Mugen Shuriken) during which Hurricane GokaiOh sends off a flurry of shuriken that strike the target. Its Gokai Fuurai Attack (ゴーカイ風雷アタック,Gōkai Fūrai Atakku) finishing attack has Fuuraimaru separate from Hurricane GokaiOh before performing the Secret Finisher Turbulence Cherry Blossoms (必殺奥義・乱れ桜,Hissatsu Ōgi Midare Zakura), using a cloning ninpo on himself to attack the target with multiple shurikens.
Pat Striker (パトストライカー,Pato Sutoraikā): The DekaMachine Patrol Striker, aka Patstriker, is DekaRed's personal mecha. It has a different design in this season than it had in Dekaranger, with some elements from the Blast Buggy.
It combines with GokaiOh to form Deka GokaiOh (デカゴーカイオー,Deka Gōkaiō), which resembles Dekaranger Robo. In this state, Deka GokaiOh can use the parts of the Pat Striker in its arms as firearms in its attacks and even have the Pat Striker separate from it to attack independently. Deka GokaiOh's finishing attacks are the Gokai Full Blast (ゴーカイフルブラスト,Gōkai Furu Burasuto), firing all built-in weapons at the opponent, and the Gokai Pat Strike (ゴーカイパトストライク,Gōkai Pato Sutoraiku).
MagiDragon (マジドラゴン,Majidoragon): The first combination mecha from Magiranger, formed from the Majinn forms of the eldest four of the Ozu siblings. Unlike its original form, MagiDragon is red instead of a mix of five colors, as well as not formed from the eldest Ozu siblings. It combines with GokaiOh to form Magi GokaiOh (マジゴーカイオー,Magi Gōkaiō). In this state, Magi GokaiOh can fly and even have MagiDragon separate from it to attack independently. Magi GokaiOh's finishing attack is the Gokai Magi Bind (ゴーカイマジバインド,Gōkai Maji Baindo), during which MagiDragon is launched from GokaiOh and creates a series of magical seals around the opponent that crushes it.
GekiBeasts (ゲキビースト,Geki Bīsuto): When the Gokaigers use the Gekiranger Keys, they summon the GekiBeasts (GekiTiger, GekiCheetah, GekiJaguar, GekiWolf, and SaiDain). The GekiBeasts emerge from the limb hatches and the Gokai Hō to allow GokaiOh to perform a finishing attack called the Gokai Great Geki-Geki Beast (ゴーカイ大ゲキゲキ獣,Gōkai Dai Geki Geki Jū). When the Gekiranger key is used in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger the Movie: The Flying Ghost Ship for attack, an actual physical (not merely Geki-manifestation) GekiTiger is released alongside other Greater Powers.
Engine Machalcon (炎神マッハルコン,Enjin Mahharukon): A hybrid between a falcon and a Formula-1 race car as well as the son of Speedor and Bearrv who ends his sentences with "Bari Bari!". He is summoned by the Go-Onger Keys. As an Engine, Machalcon's number is 13, with the 3 looking like three drag pipes.
Mojikara (モヂカラ,Mojikara): The Shinkengers' main elemental kanji-based source of power, which they had used for a lot of purposes, including fighting Ayakashi. The access to Mojikara is summoned by the Shinkenger Keys and channeled through GaoLion, allowing GaoLion to combine with GokaiOh to form Shinken GokaiOh (シンケンゴーカイオー,Shinken Gōkaiō), similar to ShinkenOh wielding the Gokai Ken blades in the Gokai Naginata (ゴーカイナギナタ,Gōkai Naginata) form, similar to the Daishinken's Naginata Mode used by Kajiki ShinkenOh. Shinken GokaiOh has access to the five primary Shinkengers' Mojikara, enabling it to control the elements. Shinken GokaiOh's finishing attack is the Gokai Samurai Slash (ゴーカイ侍斬り,Gōkai Samurai Giri), summoning a giant Rekka Daizantou to execute a downward slash with flames of 1000°C (1,830 °F) emitting from it. The merging of GaoLion in the chest of the mech is similar both to Hyakuju Gattai GaoKing, which was how it was originally used, as well as the appearance of the lion-like Shishi Origami in the ShinkenOh.
Kanzen GokaiOh (カンゼンゴーカイオー,Kanzen Gōkaiō, Complete GokaiOh) is the combination of GokaiOh, Gozyujin, and Machalcon when the Greater Powers of the Gokaigers, the Kanzen Soul (カンゼンソウル,Kanzen Souru), is used and inserted into Machalcon. Kanzen GokaiOh can use the Kanzen Drill (カンゼンドリル (Kanzen Doriru,Kanzen Drill (カンゼンドリル) slash attack with it's right arm and the Kanzen Missiles (カンゼンミサイル,Kanzen Misairu) attacks from the left-sided fingers. Kanzen GokaiOh's finishing move is the Gokai Kanzen Burst (ゴーカイカンゼンバースト,Gōkai Kanzen Bāsuto), where the oversized left fist is fired off of Kanzen GokaiOh and strikes the opponent with enough force to go through it.
With MagiDragon, Pat Striker, GaoLion, and Fuuraimaru adding their power into the Gokai Kanzen Burst, Kanzen GokaiOh can perform a stronger version of it called the Gokai Kanzen Super Burst (ゴーカイカンゼンスーパーバースト,Gōkai Kanzen Sūpā Bāsuto).
In the 29th episode of Zyuohger, combining their Grand Power with the finisher of Wild Tousai King allowed it to harness the power of all the Super Sentai teams.
The idea of the Greater Power of the Gokaigers themselves was first pondered by Engine Machalcon, when he asked them what their own Greater Power was since they were using Greater Powers of other Sentai teams, he being the Greater Power of the Go-Ongers. They didn't have a clue as they never thought of it before, though Luka suggested that it could simply be GokaiOh. TV STORY-Ep. 37: The Strongest Fighting MachineTV STORY-Ep. 38: The Power to Seize Dreams
A fun fact about this power is that with Machalcon joining Marvelous' crew, this is a combination of everyone that is a part of this crew, symbolizing the desire to seize their dreams.

TheGokai Galleon's Greater Power (ゴーカイガレオンの大いなる力,Gōkai Gareon no Ōinaru Chikara) as descibed by Marvelous, manifests as the Gokai Galleon Key (ゴーカイガレオンキー,Gōkai Gareon Kī). By inserting the key into the Mobilates, the main five Gokaigers are granted use of their Cross Armor Mode (クロスアーマーモード,Kurosu Āmā Mōdo), enhancements manifest as weapons and armor for the core Gokaigers akin to their mecha while combined as GokaiOh. When Gokai Red turns the switch on the key, he is further granted the Galleon Armor Mode (ガレオンアーマーモード,Gareon Āmā Mōdo), an extension of Cross Armor Mode, and grants Gokai Red the usage of all the weapons used by his teammates. Galleon Armor Modes finishing attack is the FInal Galleon Strike (ファイナルガレオンストライク,Finaru Gareon Sutoraiku); by charging up the boosters on his torso armor, Gokai Red fires all of his ranged weapons at the enemy before slashing with Gokai Blue's claw once at close range.
Following the Gokai Galleon's destruction by the Bakut Pirates, Joe retrieves the Galleon's power core, describing it as the "Galleon's Soul". During the final battle against the Bakut Pirates, the power core transforms into the Gokai Galleon Key as a result of the Gokai Galleon wanting to continue aiding the Gokaigers. MOVIE STORY-Kaizoku Sentai: Ten Gokaiger
The Go-Busters' Greater Power (ゴーバスターズの大いなる力,Gōbasutāzu no Ōinaru Chikara) was revealed to be the Buddy Roids (バディロイド,Badi Roido). This manifests in the Phantom Ranger Keys (幻のレンジャーキー,Maboroshi no Renjā Kī) transforming into Buddy Roid Keys (バディロイドキー,Badiroido Kī). When the Gokaigers use these new Buddy Roid keys, whatever Giant Robos are in the system can manifest giant keys such as this. These keys, in turn, can change into Megazord Keys (メガゾードキー,Megazōdo Kī) in the style of various Super Sentai Giant Robos, allowing the Giant Robos in the field to transform into the classic Robos. TV STORY-Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters vs. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: The Movie
This Greater Power is unique compared to that of the previous 35 Sentai in that it is not accessed by the Go-Busters' own Ranger Keys.
The Greater Powers themselves can be used likewise by other means and other mecha aside from the Gokaiger, such as Wild Tousai King using the Denziman and Liveman Greater Powers.TV STORY-Ep. 29: The Monarch of the Monarchs
The treasure is later revealed to be the teamwork between Super Sentai and Kamen Riders, as shown by the Goseigers giving Kamen Riders Ryuki, Blade and Decade their reflection cards, Kamen Rider OOO giving the Gokaigers his O Medals that become the Kamen Rider OOO Ranger Keys, which they use with the Gokai Galleon Buster and Kamen Rider Fourze teaming up with the Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters and using the Super-1 and Super-3 switches to turn Go-BusterOh into Rocket Drill Go-BusterOh.
Each individual Rider possess their own Greater Power as Kamen Rider Fourze considered his Greater Power to be his friendships and Kamen Rider OOO's Greater Power were the O Medals. TV STORY-Kamen Rider X Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen
Notes[]
Kanzen GokaiOh's finisher is identical to V-Rex Robo's Rex Punch attack, down to the way the fist is drawn back.
Different Greater Powers can be used, as long as they do not combine with GokaiOh. In The Flying Ghost Ship, the Gokaigers
