Notes[]
- Though mainly grunts and growls, his voice sounds similar to Demagnetron, hinting Dallas Barnett might have provided the voice effects.
- Unlike his Japanese counterpart, he was not enlarged into a giant and defeated by the Storm Megazord's Serpent Sword.
- This was because his kicking was cut and unused for American audiences.
- Lothor did not have enough energy anymore to send a Scroll of Empowerment and enlarge him along with his comrades.
