- As Battle France, his suit actors were Haruhiko Hashimoto (who previously played Midorenger) and Tetsuo Masuda.
Design[]
- Battle France wears a white suit (originally light-blue) with a deep blue stripe that runs along the side around his arms and legs.

A shield on his chest possesses the French Tricolor; it represents the number "3".

The Battle France [Citation needed]from 15 April 2023 (UTC), or Battlefrance[1] Ranger Key (バトルフランスレンジャーキー Batoru Furansu Renjā Kī) is Kyousuke Shida's personal Ranger Key and what became of his powers after he along with the rest of the 34 Super Sentai sacrificed their powers to end the Great Legend War.
This key along with the majority of the Ranger Keys were collected by the Red Pirates and later used by the Gokaigers. The Battle France Ranger Key was mainly used by Joe Gibken (Gokai Blue), who used it to fight as Battle France.
- When the Gokaigers became Battle Fever to use the Penta Force cannon to defeat the Combined Combatant. MOVIE STORY-Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger the Movie: The Flying Ghost Ship
- When the Gokaigers became Battle Fever to fight against the Ugatz in Gunman World. They finally finished off a group of Ugatz with the Penta Force boomerang. TV STORY-Ep. 35: Dimension on the Other Side
- When the Gokaigers became Battle Fever in their fight against Action Commander Bibaboo. TV STORY-Ep. 44: A Lovely Christmas Eve
The Battle Fever Keys, along with all the Ranger Keys of the first 33 Super Sentai, were briefly taken by the Black Cross King and turned into Ranger puppets that were fought by the Gokaigers and the Goseigers. The Battle Fever keys were defeated by Gokai Pink. MOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle
After Zangyack were finally defeated, the Gokaigers gave the Ranger Keys back to their rightful owners. Kyousuke received his key and became Battle France once more. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates
Usage[]
The Battle Fever J Avataro gear can be used by any of the Core Donbrothers to transform into their respective Battle Fever J counterparts. It could be used by Shinichi Saruhara to transform into Battle France.
Notes[]
- During early promotions for Battle Fever J:
- The costume originally had yellow eyes, rather than the finalized black.
- The yellow on the top of the helmet was originally red.
- His suit was originally a sky blue shade with dark blue stripes in early episodes, matching the colors on his helmet. However, due to over-washing, the sky blue tone ended up fading out and the suit became white like Battle Japan. In later appearances where Team Battle Fever makes an appearance, his suit would remain as white.
