- "Since before you were born, every monster out there in every dimension - from Rita Repulsa, to Sledge and Galvanax - they've all wanted to take the Rangers' power and rule the universe. And now that you've wrapped it up with a ribbon, some evil mind will try to take it again. And when they come, this place - Grid Battleforce - won't be able to stop them."

- "Trust, Loyalty, Courage. Sure that's at the core of the good team, but the key to your team work is friendship. One week ago, that teamwork save our city. So as my first act as re-elected mayor, I couldn't be more proud to award each of you the Coral Harbor Medal of Valor."
- ―Mayor Daniels awarding the Beast Morphers Rangers the city's Medal of Valor
Mayor Adam Daniels is the current mayor of Coral Harbor and the father of Devon Daniels.
At the end of Evox: Upgraded, Adam was turned into a host of Evox, until Devon figure out to separate him from the sentient virus on The Evox Snare.
History
Mayor Daniels caught Devon on the park, still disappointment in his son on his inability to find proper jobs and why he wasn't around helping people. But when Devon is de-morphed by Blaze during the battle, he was left in shock to discover that Devon is a Red Beast Morpher Ranger. He is unable to reach Devon before Blaze teleports the Morph-X towers away, with Devon caught in the teleport zone. 
TV STORY-Target: Tower
While the Rangers working on the Cybergate to extract Devon from the Cyber Dimension, Mayor Daniels storms into the basement, angry on why Commander Shaw didn't inform him that his son works on Grid Battleforce as a Power Ranger, until she reveals that her own son is also a Ranger. This made him realize how much he's been out of line all the time with his son, regardless of the secrecy. Using an untested cybergate built from the remains of Scrozzle's against the warning of Commander Shaw, he enters the Cyber Dimension to rescue Devon, and the two finally make up. Evox's plan to return to Earth in his new, powerful form is foiled and Evox seemingly destroyed, but Daniels notices a strange purple energy briefly surrounding his hand. TV STORY-Evox: Upgraded
Following Evox's apparent defeat, Daniels has been traveling around the world, having some successes in convincing the rest of the world to create Morph X towers. TV STORY-Believe It or Not
Evox proves to have survived within Daniels, and is now in total control, able to perfectly impersonate him, using his influence and authority as mayor to further his plans. TV STORY-Save Our Shores TV STORY-Game On!
Mayor Daniels was finally separated from Evox, who was tricked by Devon into standing in blank range of the Split Emitters teleported from Grid Battleforce. TV STORY-The Evox Snare
One year after the permanent defeat of Evox (or rather, a reincarnated Venjix) and Devon became Grid Battleforce commander, Mayor Daniels, Nate and Zoey promote the usage of using natural energy sources from solar energy and windmills for the world’s betterment. TV STORY-Evox Unleashed
Personality
As the Mayor, Adam seems to be a fairly responsible and strict father to Devon, but he truly cares for his son and wants him to be prepared for the professional world. His views on the use of Morph-X is stained by the past villainy of Rita Repulsa, Sledge, and Galvanax, who all attempted to take control of the Morphin Grid for the sake of ruling the multiverse. However that all changes when he learns of the development of a new team of Power Rangers.
Behind the Scenes
Portrayal
Mayor Daniels is portrayed by Kevin Copeland.
Notes
- Mayor Daniels draws similarities with Colonel Mason Truman:
- He also has similarities with Mr. Collins:
- They are both the fathers to the Red Rangers Devon Daniels and Wesley Collins.
- They are both wealthy people, Adam being the mayor and Collins being the owner of Bio-Lab.
- They both see their sons as disappointments until they discover they are Power Rangers.
- He's the latest father of a Ranger to discover or already know about his child's true identity. Unlike the others, he finds out near the end of the season. He's also one of those who learns the truth without becoming a Ranger himself and one of the few non-Ranger parents to immediately accept their children as Rangers.
- He, Ben, and Betty also prove to be capable fighters as all three defeat Tronics with ease.
- He was corrupted by Evox at the end of Season 1 of Beast Morphers. This made Adam similar to Anton Mercer, the adopted father of White Ranger Trent Fernandez-Mercer who was also Mesogog’s host and like Anton, he was eventually separated from his evil host.
