History[]
Marty Mackerel was an actor in the famous children TV show Funky Fisherman show. The show was the favorite show of Ethan when he was a kid.
Marty had difficult relationships with Funky Fisherman, the quarrelsome host of the show. Marty practiced the Happy Fish dance and met Kira and Devin, who were taken as interns to the show. He greeted them and told them not to worry about problems in their work. He was then called by his angry boss, who wanted a herb bath. Marty admitted that he hated when Fisherman counts. Marty wished luck to young people and left.
Marty, Funky Fisherman and other members of the show started their TV program and the program was watched on TV sets. People sang their song and Marty danced his Happy Fish dance. Elsa, Trent and Zeltrax also watched the program and Elsa decided to capture Marty and turn him into the new monster.
Elsa attacked the studio with Tyrannodrones and battled Kira. The Yellow Ranger tried to stop the villains, but she didn't manage to do so. Elsa mistakenly zapped Funky Fisherman into the TV set and kidnapped Marty.
The villains brought Marty to the lair of Mesogog. Marty tried to talk with them, saying that he was impressed by their costumes. The Tyrannodrones placed him into the Geno-Randomizer and transformed him into the new monster Mad Mackerel, who is a bonito/olive/fishing rod monster. Marty's personality extremely changed in the new form. Mad Mackerel was a cunning and sneaky monster.
Mad Mackerel then attacked Reefside and used his fishing rod to turn citizens into bait balls and put them into his bag to lure the Power Rangers. The Rangers arrived and battled Mackerel. Mad Mackerel could fire projectiles in the form of fishes. He also used his fishing rod in battle, by capturing the heroes, but the Rangers broke it and then he left.
Then Mackerel returned and again started capturing people, by using new fishing rod. The Rangers arrived and again battled Mackerel. Tommy used a special device, created by Hayley to deflect Mackerel's beam at the TV set, freeing Funky Fisherman. Kira then took away Mackerel's bag, freeing his captives. The Rangers then used Z-Rex Blaster and defeated the monster, who tried to escape.
Elsa used the Hydro-Regenerator and enlarged Mackerel. The Rangers formed the Thundersaurus Megazord and fought Mad Mackerel. Mackerel strikes the Megazord with his hooks, but the Rangers used the Thundersaurus Megazord's Ankylo Drill and Parasaur Final Cut to finally defeat Mackerel and destroy Geno-Randomizer's configuration.
Marty returned to normal and became friends with Funky Fisherman. Fisherman gave Marty a packet of balls as a present. TV STORY-It's a Mad Mad Mackerel
