History[]
This article contains content in reference to the main TV series, as well as supplemental material, such as the comics. A sliding/floating timeline applies. Story instances for TV and other media will be clearly marked. |
Early Life[]
Kimberly was relatively new to Angel Grove, as she moved to the city only a few weeks before Rita's attack and at first is unable to get along with her classmates. She was called the "Salad Girl" by Zack and Trini in the early days of school due to an incident where she complained about a salad at a fancy restaurant Zack worked at, who was then fired by the manager when Kimberly's parents complained about "the help" even though Zack was just a busser. She harbored a little resentment of the move to Angel Grove, as she left all her old friends behind and was unfamiliar with her new surroundings such as Angel Grove High, even going so far as to state she hated the city. Making things worse was the constant arguing of her parents, their eventual divorce and seeing her father preparing to marry another woman named Kelly whom Kimberly does not get along with. COMIC STORY- [[|]]
Becoming a Ranger[]
Kimberly was one of the original five Power Rangers chosen by Zordon when Rita Repulsa attacked Earth following her release from "The Space Dumpster". Her four teammates were coincidentally her closest friends; Jason Lee Scott, Zack Taylor, Billy Cranston and Trini Kwan. Kimberly received the Pterodactyl Power Coin and the Pterodactyl Dinozord, thus becoming the Pink Mighty Morphin Power Ranger. She was a capable gymnast and would later show that she also has some musical and artistic talent. TV STORY-Day of the Dumpster
When they are not saving the world, teenagers with attitudes chosen by Zordon gather at the Angel Grove Youth Center. Trini updates Alpha 5 with the language of the year 1993. Far away, Dr. Carver and Dr. Kenyon discover a new civilization and the largest statue ever built in ancient America. Unintentionally, Dr. Carver activates the terrible cross between monster and robot that attacks the excavation site. Back at the Youth Center, Billy creates a device with internet access when everyone sees the attack on TV. In the territory of the attack, summoning the Dinozords, the Power Rangers fight against a terrible monster. Struck by the lightning of the stone giant, the Rangers lose communication with Zordon and have their pieces exchanged makes it difficult in battle. With the help of Alpha 5, the exchange effect was reversed and the Rangers, winning the battle and returning the giant to its location. COMIC STORY- Rita Repulsa's Attitude Adjustment Kimberly and her friends in the form of Power Rangers defeat Korruptor using Dino Megazord. COMIC STORY- Going Green
Skull, one of the local bullies, had a crush on her until she became involved with Tommy Oliver. However, in Season 3, it is shown that Skull still had some lingering feelings for Kimberly when she was placed under a spell that made her—albeit briefly—reject Tommy. TV STORY-The Potion Notion
Lord Zedd once wanted Kimberly to be his queen before marrying Rita, and ordered Goldar to capture and train her into being his queen, but the magic dust didn't work and she retained her memories as a Ranger; she then did a Rita impression to fool her captors and give Billy and Trini enough time to rescue her from her "training". TV STORY-Beauty and the Beast
She is a romantic individual, beginning her tenure in a budding relationship with Matthew Cook and later developing a relationship with Tommy Oliver. Her mother and father divorced at some point before the main series and, though she initially wanted them to reconcile, her mother remarried and moved to Paris and then to St. Moineau, France. COMIC STORY- [[|]] When Drakkon uses the Blue Power Coin to rob the Rangers (except Tommy) of their powers, Trini manages to utilize the Green Coin to give them all access back to the Grid. This re-powers Kimberly as a Green Ranger during the battles against Lord Drakkon's Black Dragon, and Finster's Goldar clones. Afterwards, she travels to the world of the Coinless to help the rebel forces fight back against Drakkon and save Tommy and Billy who had been lost within.
Kimberly is sent, along with Trini, on an intergalactic mission to retrieve pieces of Zordon's staff from a black market dealer named Zosma. The Rangers are driving out to the desert in Billy's RADBUG so they can send Rita back into space without any civilians seeing. During the drive, Zack reveals that he has gotten a gift for his girlfriend Angela: a pair of walkie-talkies designed after characters from an old children's show she likes. Trini explains to Kimberly that people often like to collect things that remind them of what made them happy, though Kimberly can't quite understand it. As the Rangers get out of the Radbug for a breather, Zack puts the walkie-talkies in the car's trunk next to Rita's Dumpster. Up in the Moon Palace, Lord Zedd is still in disbelief that his Scarlet Sentinel has fallen. Seeing the Rangers in the desert, he gets an idea and uses his power on the Radbug. Suddenly, the car comes to life and begins attempting to ram into the Rangers while claiming that it will no longer stand for being treated like a slave. The Rangers morph and use their Power Weapons to create a ramp that flips the Radbug on its roof and immobilizes it. Zedd throws a grenade down and the Radbug grows in size, plus gains a face made from Zack's walkie-talkies (which also gives Rita a means to complain about all the hassle she's getting put through). Tommy summons the White Tigerzord to deal with the Radbug while the other Rangers form the Thunder Megazord, and he tries to stop it by climbing into the runaway vehicle and driving it with his Tigerzord at the wheel. This only serves to anger the Radbug as it turns into a bipedal monster and ejects its Zord-driving driver. The Thunder Megazord rides the White Tigerzord to catch up to the Radbug as it nears Angel Grove's city limits. Once it gets close, the Megazord jumps onto the Radbug's hood and tears its fuel line out to end the joyride.With the Radbug back to normal, Billy tends to repairs while the other Rangers prepare to send Rita on her trip. Zack also recovers his walkie-talkies, which are perfectly intact, and Kimberly admits that she'll never doubt the value of collectibles again. COMIC STORY- By Bug... Betrayed
All the members of the team possessed unique fighting styles. She used a blend of gymnastic maneuvers followed by punches, elbows, and kicks. She often used the environment around her as a springboard for her attacks. Kimberly was often called upon to finish off monsters with physically visible weaknesses such as the Terror Toad's second mouth once he had been weakened by losing his horn and the Snizzard’s golden apple on top of its head.
Season 3[]
When Rito Revolto destroys the Thunderzords, Kimberly and the other Rangers travel to the Desert of Despair and gain new powers from the creator of the Power Coins, Ninjor. Kimberly becomes the Pink Ninja Ranger, harnessing the spirit of the crane and controlling the Pink Crane Ninjazord. She later moves in with Aisha's family when her mother becomes engaged to a painter and moves to France; Zedd creates a monster, Artistmole, from Kimberly's nightmares about her mother's fiancee, but Kimberly defeats it. TV STORY-A Brush with Destiny Kimberly was sad when her mother was not present for the 1995 holiday season, but she returned from France to surprise her daughter.
Kimberly was replaced by Katherine Hillard. The veteran Ranger was targeted for elimination when Katherine (aka "Kat"), under Rita's spell, stole her power coin, granting her access to the Ninjazords. The coin being in the hands of evil also served to drain Kimberly of her life force as the Ninja Powers were linked directly to the life of the Ranger, unlike the Dinosaur-based power set. To take advantage of this, Rita launched a campaign to keep Kim overexerted in battle, knowing that, at the same time, she was focusing all of her personal time to gymnastics training for the Pan Global Games. On one occasion, Kimberly trained late at Ernie's Gym and Juice Bar after hours and, depleted, she fell from atop the balance beam. She is discovered unconscious on the floor by Katherine, overriding the evil spell she is under. Katherine calls the hospital and Kimberly is hospitalized. She recovered and later Katherine manages to give Kimberly her power coin back. However, Kimberly almost abandoned her gymnastics training after that, until she is encouraged to go back to it.
In a turn of events, Katherine took a dramatic approach to inspiring Kimberly to pursue gymnastics again by revealing to Kimberly a scrapbook of her own athletic achievements in the sport of high diving. After hitting her head on the board, she gave up on the sport, just short of her entrance into the Olympics. Katherine lured Kimberly to a local pool where she arrived just in time to see Katherine perform a fearful, yet expert high dive for the first time in years. This, and Zordon's declaration that her recruitment as a Ranger is over, prompts Kimberly to leave in order to train full-time with Gunthar Schmidt for the Pan Global Games in Florida. She selects Katherine as her replacement. TV STORY-A Different Shade of Pink
Zeo[]
Tommy was Kimberly's boyfriend and the two shared many dates and tender moments. Unfortunately, about a year later, via a letter, Kimberly recounts to Tommy, her time in Florida and how good she's training for the competitions. She reveals that she found someone else in Florida whom she describes as a good person and he is her life love, and politely breaks up with him.
When Tommy was depressed by the letter, Tommy remembered his good moments years ago, when he was with Kimberly.
Later, Tommy, Billy, and Kat decided to Ski in the snow, Billy helps Tommy move on from Kimberly, and spend time with friends on the weekends. When Heather spends time with Tommy, Heather mentions to him from Kat and Billy about Kimberly. She understands what Tommy went through and that there was something special between him and Kimberly.
After the Zeo Rangers apparently defeated Defoliator, when Kat finds Tommy training, Billy mentions that Kimberly's "letter thing" still bothers him. TV STORY-There's No Business Like Snow Business, Part II
When Goldar was asleep, he began having memories of fighting the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, including Kimberly. TV STORY-A Golden Homecoming
Post Series & Other Events[]
Turbo[]
Some time later, Kimberly and Jason returned to Angel Grove to surprise their ex-teammates and help with the children's shelter. The two ex-Rangers spent some time together. After some work, Kimberly and Jason decided to relax and went scuba diving together. While they were exploring the ocean they are captured by the evil pirate queen Divatox. They were to be sacrificed to Divatox's fiancee Maligore.
Jason originally tried to escape the bilge with Kimberly, as well as their neighboring cellmates Bulk and Skull, but when her turn came to leave the ship, her shirt was stuck on one of the bolts. Jason helped get her unstuck and Kimberly was able to escape, though Jason would be trapped inside shortly after when Divatox discovered the flooding from the bilge.
Kimberly reached the island of Muiranthias and lay exhausted on the beach from her recent escape. When she regained consciousness, she was found by the Malachians and she was quickly tied with rope to a wooden slab. The Malachians took the captured Kimberly to Maligore's temple, where she discovered Divatox, her forces and her captives had already made it there.
When the time of the sacrifice came near, Jason and Kimberly were tied together and their wrists chained to a rope that would lower them into the volcano. Before they could be lowered in, the Turbo Rangers arrived and they worked hard to prevent them from being lowered into the volcano. Despite the Rangers' best efforts to save their friends, Jason and Kimberly were ultimately lowered into the volcano by Rygog, much to the pleasure of Divatox. With the sacrifice complete, Kimberly and Jason reappeared in a burst of flames onto the volcano's edge, both under the control of Maligore with their eyes glowing red. After snapping their handcuffs with their bare hands, the two evil ex-Rangers followed Divatox's command to destroy the intruders and they began to assault the Rangers.
After briefly fighting off the Green and Yellow Turbo Rangers, Kimberly set her sights on the Pink Turbo Ranger and, despite Kat's please to fight the evil inside her the way Kat did when she was under Rita's control, Kim started to attack her Pink Ranger successor.
Tommy was deeply troubled by this and he intervened, even taking off his helmet in an attempt to get Kimberly to remember him. However, when Kat said they were her friends, Kimberly merely laughed remarking that she had no friends and she watched on as Tommy was attacked by Jason. While Jason began attacking Tommy, Kimberly told Kat that "pink is out" and she knocked the Pink Turbo Ranger back with a kick to the stomach.
After kicking away Tanya the Yellow Turbo Ranger during a short struggle, Kimberly saw that Jason had finally overpowered Tommy and had him held by the throat at the edge of the volcanic pit. Kimberly watched with great pleasure, urging him to throw Tommy into the pit. However, Lerigot and Lara were watching nearby and after noticing Kimberly, the Liarians used their magic on Kimberly and her eyes returned to their normal color as she was cured of the evil spell. After Tommy, in an attempt to save himself, inadvertently caused Jason to fall over the edge, Kimberly ran to Tommy's side to help Jason back out of the flames, reaffirming her affiliation with Tommy and the forces of good.
After helping move the Liarians out of harm's way, Kimberly was chased away by some Piranhatrons and fought with them. After punching one Piranhatron away, Kimberly was grabbed by her arms from behind by another and she struggled to get free. She was quickly found by Jason, who had been cured of his own evil spell a few moments before, and he pulled the Piranhatron off of Kimberly before defeating the Piranhatron with a kick.
Having fought off the Piranhatrons, Kimberly and Jason helped the Liarians out of the volcano and, after the Turbo Megazord had destroyed Maligore, the Rangers helped them aboard the Turbo Megazord's cockpit to leave Muiranthias. Later, Kimberly was seated next to Ernie among the spectators of the Martial Arts Competition in the film's finale. After Tommy, Adam, and Jason won the martial arts match, she can be seen holding Jason's hands and cheering her friends as they're awarded the check to save the children's shelter.

Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
- Kimberly is portrayed by Amy Jo Johnson.
- As the Mighty Morphin' Pink Ranger, her suit actor was Kiyohito Nakagawa (中川 清人 Nakagawa Kiyohito) in Super Sentai footage from Zyuranger, while in original footage her suit actors were Sophia Crawford and Akihiro Noguchi (野口彰宏 Noguchi Akihiro).
- When Kimberly and Billy switched bodies in "Switching Places", Kimberly was portrayed by David Yost.
- Unlike her co-stars, Amy Jo Johnson was the most professionally trained actor/actress, having trained at Lee Strasberg Theater and American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York City. She had moved to Los Angeles after that and landed the role of Kimberly only six months later.
- Johnson would elaborate on the audition. “I went through all of this training and felt I had done very well. However, coming into Hollywood makes your confidence drop quite a bit because roles are not guaranteed and I struggled to find work for months. They had an open casting call and while I was a few years older than most who were auditioning, I felt I related to Kimberly better and I still looked and acted like a teenager, so that helped.”

Notes[]
- Midway through Season 3, Amy Jo Johnson requested that Kimberly was written off the show because she wanted to pursue other opportunities in acting. The character was accommodated with a 10-episode story arc focused on Kimberly, leading up to her departure.
- Out of all the Rangers, Kimberly has the most episodes focusing on her.
- So far, Kimberly is the only Power Ranger who does gymnastics.
- As revealed in "Different Drum", Kimberly is fluent in American Sign Language.
- Kimberly coined the phrase "Morphinominal!", which has been used in many Power Ranger shows since the character's departure from the series.
- Kimberly was the very first Ranger in the series to appear onscreen. However, she is not the first to be officially introduced as her name is not mentioned until after Zack and Jason's.
- The name Kimberly was previously used when the 1984 Super Sentai Series Chodenshi Bioman was dubbed in Philippine English, as an English name for Hikaru Katsuragi (Pink Five).
- Her name was used originally in the Bio-Man pilot as a counterpart to Pink Five as the original pilot version and she was a Gemini at the time, not an Aquarius.
- Kimberly is the only Ranger (though not the only character) to appear in all three movies, though each of the three films takes place in a different continuity.
- The role of Kimberly was originally meant to be a stereotypical "dumb blonde"-type character, but was changed to more of a valley-girl type when Amy Jo was cast, which her gymnastics also contributed to.
- Kimberly, along with Tommy, Billy, Adam, Rocky and Jason are the only Rangers to appear in more than 100 episodes.
- Kimberly was voted the best Pink Ranger of all time in an ABC Family/Jetix poll.
- Kimberly is a playable character in Power Rangers Legacy Wars, in four different incarnations.
- It is not known what becomes of Kimberly after her appearance in the Turbo movie, This has led some fans to believe that, if the rejected romance between Jason and Kimberly in the "Turbo" movie were true, that Jason and Kimberly would now be a couple at this point in time, or maybe even married.
- Kimberly returns in the video game Power Rangers: Super Legends, though she is not played or voiced by Amy Jo Johnson. Amit Bhaumik, the script-editor of Power Rangers: Wild Force, claimed in a 2005 interview that he had intended to reveal Kimberly had married Skull in a draft of Forever Red, and therefore would be the mother of future Power Rangers Samurai/Super Samurai character Spike, but this was dropped early in editing. Bhaumik said that he would've liked to have Amy Jo Johnson come back to reprise her role, as well as a few other past "Power Rangers" actors, but was unable to at the time. Whether Kimberly has ended up with her unnamed boyfriend mentioned in "Zeo", Jason or even Skull remains unexplained in any incarnation of "Power Rangers" since the character's last on-screen appearance on the show.
- A draft of the "goodbye" scene in "Forever Red", confirmed by Amit Bhaumik on Facebook when asked, also had Kimberly pick Tommy up and be confirmed to be his wife; he also stated that he is a fan of the relationship between Tommy and Kimberly in MMPR. This was a revisiting of a similar scene in which Kat was going to pick him up from the NASADA space port.[Citation needed]
- Kimberly's birthday was given as February 14, making her an Aquarius.
- This also places her birthday on Valentine's Day.
- Kimberly's birthplace was Seattle, Washington.
- With regards to the future, Kimberly stated she wished to go to college, and was thinking about being a teacher as she loved working with little kids, but she also wanted to own a gym and coach gymnastics, as well as write.
