The monsters of Season One are created by Finster using his Monstermatic. To make them grow, Rita throws her wand to Earth which emits energy that causes the Earth to shake and then enlarges the monster.

List of all Monsters seen in Season 1 of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers

Bones

  • First Appearance: High Five (01x02)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: Trini Kwan

Bones is a monster created by Finster. When Rita Repulsa had Finster make Bones, he had set the Monster Matic machine on high so that the Power Rangers would be helpless against him in combat. He is also known as the Showtime Monster due to his theatric appearance. Upon being created, Bones removed his head as he introduced himself to Rita and Finster wondered if he should have set the Monster Matic on low instead. When Bones was sent to Earth, Zordon told the Rangers that Bones had the power to shoot laser beams out his eyes, leap long distances, and to make himself disappear. Bones was also the keeper of the Time Device, which Rita was going to use to trap the Rangers in a time warp like she had done to Zordon. When the Rangers morphed and arrived to stop Bones, he removed his head and threw it in the air. As Bones' head hovered and spun around in mid-air, he used his ability to transport the Power Rangers into the Time Warp's alternate dimension. When Bones joined the Rangers in the Time Warp's dimension, he used his glowing skeleton warrior henchmen to fight the Power Rangers and Jason the Red Ranger fought with Bones. When Baboo and Squatt tried to blow up the Time Device with a bomb, Bones caused the ground to split open with his sword to stop the Rangers from reaching it, revealing a volcanic pit in the cracks of the ground. Red Ranger fought with Bones and he had his teammates shoot Bones with their Blade Blasters, blasting the monster to pieces. When Bones tried to piece himself together, Billy the Blue Ranger discovered his head was his weak spot and so he grabbed it and threw it to Trini the Yellow Ranger. After defeating his skeleton warriors single handedly with her Blade Blaster as she passed them by, Yellow Ranger destroyed Bones's head by tossing it down a crack in the ground into a lava pit. Without his head, Bones's body self-destructed. Bones is the first monster the Power Rangers ever faced that was created by Finster, and one of the few to have his own set of minions (glowing skeleton warriors).

Although he never appeared physically again afterwards, an illustration of Bones was shown in Finster's monster book in the episode "Happy Birthday, Zack", next to a page that had an illustration of the season one monster Chunky Chicken.

Bones was the first boss in the original "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" Super Nintendo video game. In the video game, he possesses some powers that are not in the episode, such as shooting balls of fire from his mouth when game players have destroyed Bones' arms and then the rest of his body, leaving only his hovering head left to destroy

Skeleton Warriors

These were Bones' foot soldiers, which were essentially skeleton-themed putties. They were easily destroyed by Trini the Yellow Ranger, who used her Blade Blaster sword to slice the skeletons to pieces.

Giant

  • First Appearance: High Five (01x02)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner

A giant knight summoned by Rita after Bones's defeat. She said this incantation to summon him:

Moondust soft and pliant,
Send to Earth a giant.

Once it appeared in Angel Grove, it pulled the Red Ranger out of Bones's dimension. The Ranger then summoned the Tyrannosaurus Zord and soon destroyed the Giant with the ground breath attack.

Notes

  • Giant is the only known monster of Rita who isn't destroyed by the Megazord. Instead, he is destroyed by the Tyrannosaurus Dinozord.

Mighty Minotaur

  • First Appearance: Teamwork (01x03)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: All Five Rangers

The Mighty Minotaur is a minotaur monster created by Finster, half chicken, half bull. It manages to cause mass havoc against Jason, Zack, and Billy while Trini and Kimberly are preoccupied fighting the Putty Patrollers. After the Minotaur grows, the Rangers regroup and call on their Zords, but after a brief confrontation in Megazord Tank Mode, Zordon determines the monster is too much for the Rangers' zords without allowing them to attempt a battle in Megazord Battle Mode, although there was nothing to indicate that this battle would end any differently than other battles where Tank Mode was overwhelmed. Zordon gives the Rangers their Power Weapons to battle the monster. When confronted by the Minotaur again, they bring their weapons together to form the Power Blaster and defeat the monster.

The Minotaur also appeared in the Sega Genesis "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" game. He was the first boss of the game, as well as a playable character in its Battle mode

King Sphinx/Fly Guy

  • First Appearance: A Pressing Engagement (01x04), Day of the Dumpster (Pilot) (01:01a)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Cansino
  • Main Enemy: Jason Lee Scott

King Sphinx was a Pharaoh-like Sphinx monster created by Finster. He could send away other beings with his wings. He also wields a scepter with a gold question mark on the end, which emitted flaming question marks. Finster supposedly created him from a handful of Egyptian sand, which he threw into the clay mold while making the monster's model. At Rita's request, Finster made King Sphinx for the sole purpose of defeating and destroying Jason the Red Ranger, so that the Power Rangers could be destroyed quicker without their leader to guide them. When the Black, Pink and Red Rangers arrived at the Children's Theater in the park to confront the monster and Putties, King Sphinx flapped his wings and sent the Pink Ranger away to the Youth Center's Gym and Juice Bar. After sending the Black Ranger away next, he teleported away with the Red Ranger to a mountainous desert to fight one-on-one. They seemed evenly matched in combat at first, but, even with the assistance of Goldar later in the battle, the Red Ranger started to get the upper hand over King Sphinx. Rita then made King Sphinx and Goldar grow to crush the Red Ranger. After finding Red Ranger's location, Zordon was able to use Jason's Power Sword to send him the Power Crystals so he could allow the other Rangers to arrive and summon their Zords. King Sphinx fought with Goldar mostly while the Zords were in the Megazord tank mode, but once it transformed into Battle Mode, the monsters (and even Rita herself) became very worried. King Sphinx and Goldar fought Megazord together, but after a lengthy battle, the monster was finally destroyed by the Megazord's Power Sword.

Though he would not be seen again on the show again physically, an illustration of King Sphinx would be featured in a page of Finster's monster book in the season one episode, "Happy Birthday, Zack". He is shown on a page next to the page that features a drawing of the Genie monster. In "Island of Illusion, Part II", a flashback of footage from "A Pressing Engagement" is shown when Jason recalls his fight with King Sphinx and beating the monster in order to keep from fading away into nothingness.

Though King Sphinx only appears in his debut episode "A Pressing Engagement", footage of the Goldar/King Sphinx fight from that episode can be seen in a few season one episodes, including the pilot "Day of the Dumpster" and "Crystal of Nightmares", due to repeated scenes. Sometimes when Megazord attacks Goldar, King Sphinx can be briefly seen with Goldar being struck with a shower of sparks.

King Sphinx was originally named Fly Guy in the (originally) unaired pilot for "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers", which would later air as "The Lost Episode". Because of his appearance in the unaired pilot, King Sphinx became the most featured non-regular villain character to appear in art for much of the franchise's merchandise, including coloring books, board games and an eight-inch action figure.

King Sphinx appears in two different "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" video games. He appears in the Game Gear version of MMPR, as the first boss of the game. In the Game Boy version of the MMPR game, King Sphinx appears as the second boss. Unlike the Game Gear version, the Game Boy "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" game will allow players to select King Sphinx as a playable character in Link game and Versus game modes.

King Sphinx was originally named Fly Guy in the (originally) unaired pilot for Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. He was also the most featured non-regular villain character to appear in art for much of the franchise's merchandise, due to his appearance in the original unused pilot. According to the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers CD-Rom, King Sphinx's hobby was burying Power Rangers up to their necks in sand and leaving them to their fate. His weakness was listed as rain, which could dissolve him into a puddle of sand.

Gnarly Gnome

  • First Appearance: Different Drum (01x05)
  • Voice Actor: Steve Kramer
  • Main Enemy: All Five Rangers

Gnarly Gnome was a gnome/goblin monster created by Finster. He could control people with his music, which he played with his magical accordian. He had the ability to become invisible and he also wielded a rake as a weapon. Gnarly Gnome held the friends of Kimberly's deaf friend Melissa as hostages in a cave and made them dance uncontrollably with his music. He had planned to lure the Power Rangers out and also put them under his accordian's hypnotic spell. After being cooked a meal by Baboo, he fell asleep along with Baboo and Squatt. When Melissa led Kimberly and the others to the cave, a livid Rita screamed for Gnarly Gnome to wake up and hypnotize the Rangers so they could be put under her control. Outside, Kimberly had Melissa take cover, thereby preventing Melissa from seeing Kim and her friends morph into the Power Rangers. The Rangers took on Gnarly Gnome and they obliterated him with the Power Blaster, breaking him apart into pieces of stone. Despite this, Rita used her magic wand to make him grow and Gnarly Gnome became solid again as he became giant. During the Megazord battle, Gnarly Gnome first used his rake, but the Megazord soon took it away and used it against him. Gnarly Gnome then used his accordian to confuse the Megazord and cause the Rangers to see illusions of a city in the empty battlefield. He also had them hallucinate Gnarly Gnome as a city building and then a rolling boulder. The Megazord knocked the accordion away, putting a stop to Gnarly Gnome's music, and then the Rangers destroyed him with the Power Sword before he could retrieve his accordian.

Gnarly Gnome was also the second boss in the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Super NES game. He was also the first monster to also appear in U.S. footage on "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" (though his episode would actually air after "Food Fight", which featured the episode's monster Pudgy Pig also appearing in U.S. footage at the food fair). Although the second boss of the Super Nintendo game, Gnarly Gnome's rake was one of the deadliest attacks in the game and also the hardest to avoid, except by standing on a high platform. He also possessed a new ability in the game, to shoot waves of pink energy out of his accordian. In the game, he is known as King Krome the Mountain Gnome, or King Krome for short&nbsp

Pudgy Pig

  • Episodes: Food Fight (01x06), Island of Illusion (01x27), A Pig Surprise (01x41)
  • Voice Actor: Dave Mallow
  • Main Enemy: All Five Rangers

Pudgy Pig was a ravenous pig monster. He supposedly could wipe out the Earth's entire food supply in a mere 48 hours, but given the rate of time it took him to get through Angel Grove alone, even 48 years would be a stretch in reality (and since food supply constantly replenishes, he would have been ineffective at best, a mere nuisance in reality). However, he didn't like spicy food. Pudgy Pig was created by Finster to ruin the Food Festival at the Youth Center, immediately beginning to eat everything in sight. When battling the Power Rangers, Pudgy Pig swallowed their Power Weapons and sent the Rangers into a swirling vortex. The Rangers realized that the monster didn't like spicy food, so they fed it a sandwich containing a spicy vegetable, causing it to become ill and vomit up all the food while slowly shrinking as it began collapsing inwards upon itself (whilst shouting something that sounded suspicously like "me want honeycomb" repeatedly, like the little creature in the Honeycomb cereal commercials would always say), as well as the Rangers' weapons after further weakening it beforehand. The Rangers then used their Power Blaster to destroy the Pudgy Pig.

Some time later when the Rangers were sent to the Island of Illusion, they were assaulted by the illusions of monsters they had already defeated, including Pudgy Pig. A few dozen episodes later, Rita Repulsa was able to transform Norman (Bulk's pet pig) into another Pudgy Pig. Like the first Pudgy Pig, Norman was gluttonous, but unlike the first, he did not have evil intentions — he just wanted some food to snack on. Also, Norman had better command of the English language than the original Pudgy Pig had.The Rangers were able to track Norman to a farm where he was found gazing at a female pig. Trini observed that none of Rita's monsters could fall in love like Norman had. The Rangers then turned this Pudgy Pig back into Norman.

Pudgy Pig appeared one more time in Marvel Comics Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #4 in the story Glutton for Punishment. In the story, Zedd sends Pudgy Pig to an abandoned power planet so that he can feed off the toxic waste and become stronger. After growing, The Rangers use the Ninja Megafalconzord to overload him the toxic waste and defeat.

Chunky Chicken

  • First Appearance: Big Sisters (01x07)
  • Voice Actor: Robert Axelrod
  • Main Enemy: Kimberly Hart and Trini Kwan

A chicken monster created by Finster when Rita asked for a truly cruel monster. He captured Maria, a young girl who Kimberly and Trini were babysitting, and used her to open a chest to retrieve the Power Eggs, as the chest could only be opened by a child. The Chunky Chicken used a pair of giant scissors to tear a hole in the fabric of time and space in order to move around. The Chunky Chicken was destroyed by the Megazord, after unsuccessfully trying to duck the Power Sword. Chunky Chicken was seen in the Machine Empire's army and was present in the Zedd and Rita's army.

Portions of Chunky Chicken's suit were later used in making the Turkeyjerk suit.

Genie

  • First Appearance: Switching Places (01x08)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: All Five Rangers

An evil jackal-headed genie released from his lamp by Squatt and Baboo, the Genie was one of the few monsters of the day that was not blown up by the Power Rangers -- they instead destroyed his lamp, causing him to disappear. A drawing of Genie appears on a page next to an illustration of King Sphinx in Finster's monster book in the episode "Happy Birthday, Zack".

He's also featured in the "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" video game for the SNES, as the fourth level's boss. He possesses new abilities in the game not used in the episode (while also bearing a strong resemblance to Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, such as sending four hovering daggers and then a row with four balls of fire down at the Rangers as attacks.

Eye Guy

  • Episodes: I, Eye Guy (01x09), Island of Illusion (01x27), The Wedding (02x41) (02x42) (02x43), Countdown to Destruction, Part I (06x42), The Fate of Lightspeed (08x40)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Cansino
  • Main Enemy: Billy Cranston

Eye Guy is an eye monster created by Finster. Rita had once employed Eye Guy's skills on Redna 2 to capture incredibly bright children to use their intelligence for evil. Eye Guy was one of Rita's favorite monsters and Eye Guy seemed to show some attraction and loyalty to her, calling her "lovely" and "a sight for sore eyes". Eye Guy had an array of energy beam attacks he could launch from his various eyes, and could reassemble himself if blown apart. Eye Guy's mission was to capture a highly-intelligent child so Rita Repulsa could absorb their intelligence. Eye Guy captured Billy's friend Willie and was challenged by the Power Rangers. Eye Guy proved to be invulnerable to their Power Blaster and had them on the ropes until Billy destroyed his main eye. Grown to giant size by Rita, Eye Guy was destroyed by the Megazord, freeing the child before Rita could get to him.

Some time later when the Rangers were sent to the Island of Illusion, they were assaulted by the illusions of monsters they had already defeated which then vanished when they were about to touch the Rangers. One of these illusions was Eye Guy. However, all of the monsters vanished when the six Ranger teens stood their ground.

Eye Guy later returned in "The Wedding" three-part story in season two as one of the monsters to fight the captured the Power Rangers in the Spectre Theater, primarily fighting the Yellow Ranger in part two. Eye Guy left the Rangers briefly to attend Rita and Zedd's wedding, where he brought them a caged spider as a gift for "either a decoration or a light snack." After the reception, he returned to Earth with several monsters where he chased after the Power Rangers when they escaped the Theater. Eye Guy was one of six monsters to grow and fight the Thunderzords, where he was destroyed by one of Tigerzord's fire balls.

Eye Guy was later featured in "Countdown to Destruction" and was one of the many monsters that aided King Mondo in raiding the Phantom Ranger's home planet.

Eye Guy was last seen in the finale of Lightspeed Rescue when Queen Bansheera attempted to open a gateway to the Shadow World. He was among the undead monsters seen in the gateway.

Eye Guy was also one of the villains in the original "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" video game for the Super Nintendo console. He was the third level boss in this game, where he was portrayed as a big, slow moving, lumbering brute rather than a fast moving monster. Like the game's first level boss Bones, he was fought in different phases, where after his body was destroyed, the game player had to destroy his main eye that floated in mid-air.&nbsp

Snizzard

  • Episodes: Foul Play in the Sky (01x10), Island of Illusion (01x27), Zedd's Monster Mash (02x21), The Wedding (02x42) (02x43)
  • Voice Actor: Bryan Cranston (1st Time), Bob Papenbrook (3rd Time)
  • Main Enemy: Kimberly Hart

Snizzard was a snake/lizard monster created by Finster to battle the Power Rangers. Its torso was actually a large snake mouth, which could open up and fire what he called "tonsil snakes" at his foes, which would then wrap up and weaken their targets, draining them of their life energy. His arms were a pair of snakes and his legs were a bunch of snakes coiled around each other. The Zapper Apple on his crown also possessed great power, possibly strong enough to have been able to destroy the Power Rangers with a single shot from a weapon charged by it. Confronting four of the Rangers in Angel Grove Park, Snizzard overwhelmed and nearly destroyed them with an arrow charged with energy from his crown's Zapper Apple. It was then that Kimberly Hart arrived and saved her teammates. After defeating a group of Putties that Snizzard had summoned, Kimberly slew the reptilian monster by firing an arrow of her own into his Zapper Apple. Later, an illustration of Snizard was shown in a page of Finster's monster book in the episode "Happy Birthday, Zack".

Snizzard was brought back in season 2 by Lord Zedd as one of the monsters who in Doomstone's graveyard. He was once again recreated (by Finster) to guard the Power Rangers in the Specter Theater. He later attended Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd's wedding, demonstrating that he is musically talented, one of the few monsters shown with a unique talent unrelated to their "theme" where he played the song "Here Comes the Bride" on the organ. Rita provided her own lyrics as she walked down the aisle, calling the song "Here Comes the Queen". A couple of the guests were jumping over his tail like a jump rope as he wagged it around from side to side while playing the organ.

Lastly, Snizzard reappeared in Rita and Zedd's army as they conquered the Vica Galaxy.

The Snizzard suit was later repainted silver and used for the Cobra Tattoo monster in Lightspeed Rescue.

Note: In ZyuRanger, the Power Blaster defeated Snizzard. He only lost some of his power when Mei shot an arrow into his zapper apple. At that point, the howling cannon (power blaster) was assembled to kill off Snizzard.

Mr. Ticklesneezer

  • First Appearance: For Whom the Bell Trolls (01x11)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: Technically none of the rangers.

A rather friendly and timid troll-like elf monster created from Trini's doll of the same name in her dream. His specialty was collecting. Mr. Ticklesneezer enjoyed collecting large objects (or "goodies") such as vehicles and buildings inside his small glass bottles. Rita wanted to use these skills to capture the Power Rangers and the world. When Mr. Ticklesneezer fought the Megazord, he realized the difficulty he had caused everyone, and returned everything he collected.

Mr. Ticklesneezer's suit was later repainted blue, and given fangs, for the Grumble the Magic Elf costume in Season 2's "Storybook Rangers.

Knasty Knight

  • First Appearance: Happy Birthday Zack (01x12)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: Zack Taylor

Knasty Knight was an evil knight summoned by Rita Repulsa to attack Zack on his birthday. He was one of the most powerful of Rita's monsters, used to eliminate many who opposed her. The Knasty Knight was featured on Page 12 of Finster's monster book. After Rita saw the Knight's picture, she remembered how effective Knasty Knight was used on Tarmac 3 and that he made "mince meat out of their finest warrior." Later that night, Finster and Baboo helped to forge the Knight's sword on Earth, which Finster said could cut through any material in the universe and possessed great magical powers. While Finster finished the sword, Rita summoned Nasty Knight with an incantation:

"Moon of ivory, stars of old, candlelight that's spun of gold... sky of fire, wind of fright, bring to me a Knasty Knight!"

After the sword hovered in the air and a tree split in half, the Knasty Knight appeared and took his sword in hand. The next day, Knasty Knight was sent out to attack the lone Black Ranger and they had a lengthy fight, which Rita, Baboo and Squatt watched on Earth. Black Ranger was attacked by Knasty Knight, and then Goldar, until the other Rangers arrived to help. Knasty Knight's sword attacks were also greatly resilient to the Rangers' Power Weapons, damaging them with a coating of black crust. Knasty Knight also blocked the Rangers' Tower Formation attack and sent it back at them. When Knasty Knight became giant-sized by Rita's wand, he even disabled the Megazord's Power Sword by taking away its energy. Rita looked on and instructed Knasty Knight on how to finish Megazord. However, Zack discovered that Knasty Knight was using the Rangers' energy against them. The Rangers managed to reverse this process by deflecting the Knight's energy back at him, as well as using some of their own energy. The Megazord was able to recover, restore the damaged Power Sword to normal and then Megazord used it to destroy Knasty Knight. Following the Knight's destruction, Rita fled back to her palace.

Knasty Knight appeared as the boss of the second level in the Game Gear "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" video game. He becomes a playable character later in the Link game and Versus mode game.

Scenes of the Black Ranger's fight with Knasty Knight appear in flashback in the episode "Island of Illusion, Part II" when Quagmire urges Zack to remember the time when he fought and beat Knasty Knight to keep from disappearing into nothingness.

Pineoctopus

  • First Appearance: No Clowning Around (01x13), Island of Illusion (01x27), Countdown to Destruction (06x42)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: All Five Rangers

A pineapple/octopus monster created by Finster who took the form of Pineapple the Clown. He turned Trini's cousin, Silvia, into cardboard (she was later restored by Trini and Alpha 5). According to Finster, he personally trained the Pineoctopus. In monster form, he was also known unofficially as the Charge Card Monster because his voice sounded like the guy that did the charge card commercials. He could also extend his long vines and use them like whips and launch spheres of energy. He was the only monster to be defeated using the Megazord cranial laser (although it was the Tyranosaurus in ZyuRanger). Later on when the Rangers were sent to the Island of Illusion, they were attacked by the illusions of monsters they had already defeated, one of which was the Pineoctopus. As a bit of trivia, Pineoctopus's catch phrase is "Big Deal".

Much later on, Pineoctopuss was seen among Rita and Zedd's army in the Vica Galaxy where he was presumably turned to sand by Zordon's energy wave.

Terror Toad


  • First Appearance: Power Ranger Punks (01x14)
  • Voice Actor: Michael Sorich
  • Main Enemy: Kimberly Hart

A toad monster with an seemingly endless hunger (he was literally always hungry) created by Finster. He could swallow people using his horn when it turns into an energy Pac Man like shape, large white energy tongue or his extremely long main tongue, and he could bounce off weapons fire with his belly by croaking. He was originally used on the planet Sorcery 7 where he most likely ate everyone on the planet. Terror Toad used the large white energy tongue on Trini and Zack and sucked them into the monster's mouth in the form of spheres. His belly bore pictures of the yellow and black ranger's faces. Terror Toad's power (and his hunger) grew as he ate the rangers. Kimberly and Billy chopped off Terror Toad's horn with their blade blaster blades. Terror Toad managed to swallow Jason and Billy with its tongue, as he chewed the rangers he revealed hidden eyes and a mouth on his neck. Kimberly shot three arrows from her power bow into Terror Toad's neck, making him fall over and releases the four swallowed rangers from his mouth in the form of energy spheres. With the Rangers free from the Terror Toad's belly, the Terror Toad was destroyed by Kimberly's Power Bow's arrow.

The Terror Toad is seen again in "Island of Illusion" Part 2 as a flashback when Quagmire urges Kimberly to recall how she destroyed the monster.

The Terror Toad appears again in "Crystal of Nightmares" when Billy has a nightmare of when he was eaten by the Terror Toad. This was the Terror Toad's last known appearance.

Madame Woe

  • First Appearance: Peace, Love and Woe (01x15)
  • Voice Actor: Alex Borstein
  • Main Enemy: Billy Cranston

It is unclear how Madame Woe came into existance: at first Rita contacts Woe and asks her to come to the palace, yet earlier Rita seems to infer that Finster is responsible for creating Madame Woe, as she asks him to create a monster, and when he asks which one, her response is a Madame Woe. It's possible Finster created her before Rita and her henchmen were imprisoned by Zordon, and had been stranded on Earth since.

Madame Woe is an elemental monster. She gets her name from bringing woe or trouble to everyone she touched. Madame Woe's jewel allowed her to control wind, rain, heat, and cold and could send people to other dimensions. She was defeated when Billy ripped the crystal off of her head, crumpled it, freeing the other Power Rangers and Marge. Afterwards she is helpless and stands staggered, apparently ready to vomit at a moment's notice, unable to retaliate against the Power Rangers' attacks. They then used the Power Blaster to finisher her off after her last words "Woe is me!" were uttered pitifully and sadly. She also appears in the Sega Genesis game based on the show as a boss.

In "Island of Illusion" Part 2, Quagmire referred to Madame Woe as a "nightmare queen" who fought Billy in a "land of dreams".

Dark Warrior

  • First Appearance: Dark Warrior (01x16)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: All Five Rangers (Trini Kwan indirectly)

A stealthy, army-colored ninja monster created by Finster that was a combination of as many dangerous elements that he could find, Dark Warrior kidnapped Trini's uncle Howard and threatened to kill him unless he revealed the secret of a new invisibility formula that he had invented. He was destroyed by the Megazord. In the Power Rangers game, a female, but androgynous fish monster had colorings and weapons somewhat like Dark Warrior, but the similarities with the aggressive male monster ended there. Nicknamed Feisty Fish, she was able to shrink herself to half size and launch herself as a bullet, dealing almost as much damage as King Krome's rake. Later on, she would develop a chain whip ability.

Shellshock

  • First Appearance: The Trouble with Shellshock (01x22), Island of Illusion (01x27)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Epcar
  • Main Enemy: Jason Lee Scott, Tommy Oliver and Trini Kwan

A tortoise monster created by Squatt and Baboo, Shellshock had a traffic light atop its body which created speed and freeze spells. For hand weapons, he had a hook and a baseball bat with a ball, as well as a large cannon in his shell. He was exceptionally powerful but lost some of his power when Trini shorted out his traffic light using the deandra flowers when Shellshock was giant. To that point, Shellshock was winning against the Dragonzord and Tyrannosaurus. After his traffic light was shorted out, Jason and Tommy seized the opportunity, and destroyed him with a combination of the Dragonzord missiles and the Tyrannosaurus Dinozord's ground breath. This was the only time that the Dragonzord by itself was involved in a finisher. Some time later when the Rangers were sent to the Island of Illusion, they were assaulted by the illusions of monsters they had already defeated, including Shellshock. Shellshock appears in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers for the Game Gear as the boss of the fifth level.

Spidertron

  • First Appearance: Itsy Bitsy Spider (01x23)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: Zack Taylor

A spider monster created by Finster. After a brief battle, with the Rangers badly losing, he grows to giant size. Initially they formed the Megazord, and although they were able to hold him off for a bit with the Megazord, but after making him lose his balance, they were under an intense attack and had to seperate into individual zords. The Rangers battled the monsters with their individual Dinozords, but he proved to be too much for the individual zords to handle, most notably shaking off the Mastodon freeze spray, using the Tyranosaurus's flying jump kick attack against it, and trapping the Dragonzord in an exploding web. The Mastodon, Triceratops, and Saber-Toothed Tiger Zords then combined with the Dragonzord for the first time (against an opponent) to form the Dragonzord Battle Mode (with the Tyrannosaurus assisting it; Pterodactyl appeared to be missing), and promptly obliterated it with the spinning, glowing Power Staff, perforating a hole in its midsection and causing it to fall and explode. Initially there was a scene of it coming out the other end, but this was later removed due to the violence and is no longer broadcast in reruns

Spit Flower

  • First Appearance: The Spit Flower (01x24)
  • Voice Actor: Mike Reynolds
  • Main Enemy: Kimberly Hart

A flower-eating insect monster created by Finster. When it eats flowers, the flowers come out as biting little monsters that eat the energy from their targets. After growing, the Spit Flower overwhelmed the Dragonzord in Battle Mode after the Green Ranger caused the giant Spit Flower to surprisingly fall over briefly with his green shield ray blast. Later on, the Rangers discovered the monster's weak spot was its spit sac. Kimberly hit it with the Power Bow's arrows, causing the monster to become frustrated with not being able to form new biting bloomers, giving the Rangers time to form the Power Blaster. The Rangers then used the Power Blaster to destroy the Spit Flower, who needed three blasts from the Power Blaster to finally be taken down, even though the first blast appeared to have knocked off one of his claw arms. Spit Flower was present to helping aided from Mondo's army to attacking Phantom Ranger and Blue Senturion.

Frankenstein Monster

  • First Appearance: Life's a Masquerade (01x25)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: All Six Rangers

A humanoid monster created by Finster who is based on Dr. Frankenstein's monster. His main weapon was removing his neck-bolts and connecting them with a chain, creating a meteor hammer-like weapon and a spiked ball chain. He blends in with the crowd at a costume party in the Youth Center in an attempt to seek out the Rangers. After the Rangers confronted the Frankenstein monster, they were promptly overpowered.

After growing giant, the Rangers in their Megazord struggle with him, until Tommy joins the battle with his Dragonzord. Early on in the battle, the Rangers call for the Power Sword and use the finishing strike which bounces harmlessly off of the Frankenstein monster's chest. For a while, things appeared grim, as the Frankenstein monster was able to handle both the Dragonzord and Megazord simulatenously. The Megazord then disassembles and the Dragonzord combines with the Mastodon, Triceratops, and Saber-Toothed Tiger zords to form Dragonzord Battle Mode. Initially, the Frankenstein monster still has the upper hand, as he continues to clobber the Dragonzord Battle Mode like he did the Megazord and Dragonzord, even blocking and then returning its crest blast. While laughing mockingly at the Rangers, they use the opportunity obliterate the monster with the Power Staff. The Frankenstein monster explodes in a strange way, cracks appear all over his body before exploding.

Mutitus

  • First Appearance: Island of Illusion (01x27) (01x28)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Epcar
  • Main Enemy: All Six Rangers

A powerful zombie-like monster summoned by Rita. Mutitus used bolts attached to chains similar to the ones that Rita's Frankenstein Monster used. It was a fierce opponent (as Rita aptly commented, Mutitis was winning) and after summoning the evil god, Lokar, Rita had him use his "Breath of Doom" to transform Mutitus into a more demon-like form.

File:Mutitus 2.jpeg

Mutitus second form.

Mutitis continues to annihalate the Megazord, until the Dragonzord arrives, catching him off guard briefly. Soon after, Mutitus tosses around Megazord and Dragonzord, and once done toying with them, sprays toxic foam all over the Megazord and Dragonzord, causing them to short-circuit. Rita traps the Rangers on an island-shaped dimension after Mutitus beats the Megazord and Dragonzord. While on the Island of Illusion, the 6 Rangers face illusions of their worst fears. When they return, they immediately call upon the MegaDragonzord, and the battle continues. The fight goes back and forth between the two combatants, with neither gaining an upper hand until the MegaDragonzord launches its Z-sphere, disintegrating Mutitus in a flash of bright light.

Mutitus in his second form is the first enemy the Rangers must defeat using the Megazord in the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers game for the SNES. He appears in level six of the game. He has three names in the game, Mutitis, SatanFranke (from ZyuRangers), and more commonly, Horseface. He could be counted as the second monster from the game to keep his original name, but although he sometimes is called Mutitis and SatanFranke, he is more often called Horseface unlike Eye Guy, who is only called Eye Guy or possibly Eye Guy the Brute. Horseface attacks with long fingernails and the chest blasts and taunts by rearing his head back and neighing. Horseface is weakest against an aerial slash (in the game of course, Mutitis in the series would have been unharmed by it)

Samurai Fan Man

  • First Appearance: Calamity Kimberly (01x30)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner
  • Main Enemy: Kimberly Hart

A fan-wielding samurai monster created by Finster. Inside his jug is an alternate dimension, where he trapped Kimberly. It was said by Alpha that if the jar broke, she'd be trapped there forever. Weapons in his arsenal include his fan (which fires electrical sparks and a huge gust of wind, the main purpose of which is to blow his adversaries long distances away from him, and eventually to a far-off dimension), a large steel rake, a Samurai Lance, and explosive quills on his helmet that seem to regenerate themselves. Samurai Fan Man was so tough that Zordon recommended using their zords against the small Samurai Fan Man to crush him, and the other Rangers reccomended the Dragonzord in addition to the other four zords. This was because during their battle, the Power Rangers were vastly overpowered and blown away by the fan.

Kimberly was still trapped inside the jug when Rita made the Samurai Fan Man grow to a giant size. Jason then called on Tommy, who morphed and joined the others (against Alpha's wishes, as Tommy was recovering from an injury at the Command Center). Tommy called on the Dragonzord, which combined with the other zords to form the Dragonzord Battle Mode, yet none of its attacks could harm the Samurai Fan Man, although they did catch him by surprise and made him drop his rake, before being forced to dodge some attacks. The battle continued to go poorly, with their best efforts only pushing him back a bit, until the team managed to cut the monster's jug loose with the Dragonzord Battle Mode's finishing move with the Power Staff, freeing Kimberly. After a quick battle with the samurai lance which forced the Dragonzord Battle Mode to retreat, Kimberly summoned her Pterodactyl Dinozord, allowing the Rangers to form the Megazord. When in Tank Mode, Jason immediately called for preparation for the Ultrazord, although this formation was a bit delayed. They called on the Power Sword, breaking the Samurai Fan Man's Samurai Lance, but he then blew blow both the Megazord and Dragonzord away simultaneously, which were stopped by a nearby mountainside. Finally, Jason called on Titanus to form the Ultrazord, which was finally able to destroy the monster.

The Fan Man makes a cameo appearance in Kim's nightmare in Crystal of Nightmares.

Babe Ruthless

  • First Appearance: A Star is Born (01x31)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Epcar
  • Main Enemy: All Six Rangers

A baseball-esque pixie monster created by Finster who accompanies Goldar in his turn to conquer the rangers. After mercilessly clobbering the individual zords, the Rangers form the Dragonzord Battle Mode. A short battle ensues, but Babe Ruthless's attacks aren't as successful, with some even being returned. Eventually, he is destroyed by the Dragonzord Battle Mode, being impaled through his stomach, leaving a sizzling perforated hole, causing him to fall over dizzily and explode. His name is a play on Babe Ruth.

Weaveworm

  • First Appearance: A Star is Born (01x31)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Cansino
  • Main Enemy: All Six Rangers

A worm monster created by Finster, Scorpina's pet and a deadly adversary. He can weave a pink strand of a gooey weblike substance, trapping the rangers in it on one occasion, and the entire Megazord in a strand the second time around. The Megazord battle with Weaveworm seemed to be going nowhere until Weaveworm upped the ante with his cocoon attack. He was surprisingly good at hand to hand combat, the Megazord's punches not fazing him. However, when the Dragonzord comes to the rescue and frees the Megazord from its sealed containment, the tide is turned. The Rangers form the MegaDragonzord, and use the spinning Z-Sphere to obliterate Weaveworm in a flash of bright light. Before the zord battle, the Dragonzord Battle Mode is disassembled, perhaps in a delayed formation of the MegaDragonzord, much like when the Ultrazord was formed against Samurai Fan Man.

Fang

  • First Appearance: The Yolk's on You! (01x32)
  • Voice Actor: Tony Oliver
  • Main Enemy: All Six Rangers

A gooney bird egg-obsessed monster created by Finster. Baboo and Squatt eat his gooney-bird eggs, causing this apparently non-evil monster to go insane and become easily manipulated by the forces of evil. He claims that the eggs were intended for lunch, but his actions indicate that they were more to him than just a delicious treat, othewise the issue would have been forgotten after chasing Squatt and Baboo. Rita promises Fang an endless supply of gooney bird eggs, but only if he can defeat the Rangers first. Fang complies with this ultimatum, having been convinced that the Rangers had stolen his previous batch of eggs. Jason tries to explain to Fang that they aren't aware of any eggs, that they haven't taken anything from him, that Rita lied to him, but Fang doesn't want to listen. During the battles with all sets of zords, he continues on about eggs. After Fang mercilessly clobbers the Megazord and the Dragonzord, and then the Dragonzord Battle Mode and Tyrannosaurus, the Rangers are left with no other choice but to defend themselves by destroying Fang with the Ultrazord. PS: In ZyuRangers, Fang is a female monster named Goda, and those "goony bird eggs" were not a delicious treat, they were her children. When Squatt and Baboo eat her eggs, she attacks them and Bandora (Rita) manipulates her with lies, forcing the ZyuRangers to kill her in a zord battle after trying to no avail to explain what happened, much like Jason did in Power Rangers

Cyclops

  • First Appearance: The Green Candle (01x33) (01x34)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Epcar
  • Main Enemy: Tommy Oliver (aiding in draining his power)

A one-eyed monster created by Finster, Cyclops was able to change his shape at will. He could project energy beams from his eye. Cyclops had disguised himself as the Dragonzord to lure the Rangers out. Once he was found out, he retreated after realizing that being hit with the real Dragonzord's tail had taken away his ability to maintain a disguise. He later launched another attack on a city near Angel Grove, this time disguised as the Dragonzord in Battle Mode. The Ultrazord destroyed Cyclops.


Rockstar

  • First Appearance: The Rockstar (01x35)
  • Voice Actor: Tony Oliver
  • Main Enemy: Jason Lee Scott

Rockstar was a rock monster who accompanied Scorpina and stalked Jason and his younger cousin, Jeremy, during their journey to capture the Mirror of Destruction. Rockstar is destroyed when he sees his reflection in the Mirror of Destruction that Jeremy points at him.

Hatchasaurus & Cardiatron

  • Episodes: Birds of a Feather (01x36), The Ninja Encounter Part 2 (02x23)
  • Voice Actor: Kirk Thornton (Hatchasaurus' 1st Time), Steve Kramer (Hatchasaurus' 2nd Time), Richard Cansino (Cardiatron)
  • Main Enemy: All Five Rangers

A bird/dinosaur monster created by Finster, Hatchasaurus possessed a magical speaking computer heart

File:Zyu-vi-cardiatron.jpg

Cardiatron

called Cardiatron (he looks like a heart with the tentacles) that was able to re-assemble/enhance the monster after it was destroyed by the Rangers. First, the Tyrannosaurus finisher was used, which only temporarily defeated him. Then, the Megazord used its Power Sword to the same results. Hatchasaurus demonstrated incredible strength when he became his most advanced form the third time he was reassembled. Even though the Hatchasaurus initially didn't speak, Cardiatron spoke in an aristcratic, haughty intellectual manner. It wasn't until Red Ranger destroyed Cardiatron with the Power Sword and Dragon Dagger that he and the others were

able to destroy Hatchasaurus once and for all with Ultrazord.

Hatchasaurus later reappeared in the second season when summoned by Terror Blossom. This time around it possessed the capability to speak with Cardiatron not speaking (strangely with Cardiatron's original voice and mannerisms). Like the first time, the Rangers had to destroy Cardiatron, before they could destroy the monster completely. To defeat it the first time, they merely emitted smoke from a nozzle in the Thunder Megazord's chest, but it quickly reassembled. The second time around, Hatchasaurus survives the Thunder Megazord Thunder Saber (which apparently destroyed Cardiatron inside of the Hatchasaurus), but is weakened enough to be taken out by the Tigerzord's thunderbolts.

Polluticorn

  • First Appearance: Clean-Up Club (01x37)
  • Voice Actor: Michael Sorich
  • Main Enemy: All five rangers

A flying unicorn monster created by Finster, it was created to spread pollution wherever it went. Its main weapons were the horn on its head, its wings, and physical strength. Once its horn was cut off, it lost some of its power. Rita then made it grow. After it blew the Megazord a good distance with its wings, They finished the battle with a blow from the Power Sword and destroyed Polluticorn. Polluticorn appeared as the boss of the sixth stage in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers for the Game Gear.

Twin Man

  • First Appearance: A Bad Reflection on You (01x38)
  • Voice Actor: Bryan Cranston
  • Main Enemy: All Five Rangers

A reflective monster, Twin Man turned himself and 4 Putties into duplicates of the Rangers to frame them. After being struck by the Power Weapons, each of the fake Rangers reverted to Putties. Eventually Twin Man was revealed as the bogus Red Ranger. Twin Man was destroyed by the Power Blaster after being weakened by the tower formation attack.

Goatan

  • First Appearance: Lions and Blizzards (01x42)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Epcar (Lion Head), Tony Oliver (Goat Head)
  • Main Enemy: Zack Taylor

Goatan is a Chimera-like monster with a lion head, arms, and torso, a goat head on the chest and goat legs, and a snake tail. He is also known as the Storm Bringer. Goatan was created by Rita when she casted the following spell on the Noble Lion Trophy that Bulk and Skull stole:

Scabs, weasels, moons of Cryon,
Make me a monster, half goat, half lion

When the trophy turned into Goatan, Bulk and Skull got scared and fell into the lake. He was able to summon blizzards, tornadoes, and even hurricanes at will. Zordon noted that if Rita were to get Goatan to control the weather, the Earth would be in great peril. Goatan's weapons were a crossbow and a hockey stick. He could create energy winds and cyclones to blow his enemies away, project eye beams, and produce ice spray from the mouth of its goat center. When he was challenged by four of the Power Rangers, Goatan easily overpowered them, beating them soundly before enveloping them in an energy cyclone generated by the mouth of the goat head. When Zack Taylor, the Black Ranger, arrived, he assaulted Goatan with his Power Ax, stunning the chimera and causing Rita to make him grow. Generating a snowstorm during the fight against the Zords, Goatan encased the Megazord in a thick sheet of ice, but before he could cause any damage, the Megazord broke free, then destroyed Goatan with the fully-energized Power Sword. Unlike most objects that get turned into monsters, the Noble Lion Trophy was not restored after Goatan's destruction.

Goatan is based on the mythical Greek beast, the chimera.

Octoplant

  • First Appearance: Rita's Seed of Evil (01x43)
  • Voice Actor: Brianne Siddall
  • Main Enemy: All five rangers

A vain plant monster planted by Squatt and one of only two female monsters during the first season. Before hatching, her tentacles grew and strangled Jason almost to the point of death. He was saved by the Rangers, but while they were being attacked by Goldar, Scorpina and the Putties, the plant grew into a full-formed monster. Immediately, Rita made her grow, and the Rangers called their Zords. They took some damage from the monster before forming the Megazord. The monster proved to be too powerful for them, as she used her tentacle to knock huge bouts of power out of the Megazord. The Rangers called for the Power Sword to try to turn the tide, and the monster suddenly got distracted when she gazed at her own reflection from a glass building. The Rangers took advantage of the opportunity, and struck Octoplant (who turned around and realized too late what awaited her) with the finishing blow from the Power Sword, immediately bringing about her destruction. After being struck by the Power Sword, she actually could be heard crying the whole time she was falling in defeat, as if she were mourning her own death, surprising because she had shown no emotion previously, but it makes more sense if you remember her vanity.

Goo Fish

  • Episodes: Something Fishy (01x45), A Reel Fish Story (02x35)
  • Voice Actor: Robert Axelrod
  • Main Enemy: Billy Cranston

A fish monster that shoots out hazardous and sticky goo from his mouth that could glue a persons feet to the ground. Summoned by Goldar to confront and frighten Billy after Rita learns of Billy's fear of fish. Billy eventually overcame this fear and flipped up over and over the Goo Fish causing him to spray himself. He was grown to giant size and was eventually destroyed by the Megazord's Power Sword.

He was later resurrected by Lord Zedd as one of his best aquatic monsters in "A Reel Fish Story. He was also present when the Machine Empire conquered the Phantom Ranger's home planet."

Note: Goo Fish comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Fighting Flea

  • Episodes: To Flea or Not to Flee (01x46), Ninja Quest (03x04)
  • Main Enemy: Jason Lee Scott

A flea monster created by Finster, he could spread an itchy rash by biting his enemies. He shrunk himself and hid inside a stray dog Jason was taking care of, with Jason getting the rash. During a battle with Putties, Jason decided to spread the rash to the Putties. Some special chemicals were used to cure Jason of the rash. In battle, Fighting Flea could blast lasers from his antennae. He was ultimately exterminated by the Megazord's Power Sword.

He returned in Part 1 of "Ninja Quest" as one of the monsters who helped Rito Revolto ambush and successfully destroy the White Tigerzord and Thunder Megazord.

Note: Fighting Flea comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Jellyfish Warrior

  • First Appearance: Reign of the Jellyfish (01x47)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Cansino
  • Main Enemy: All Five Rangers

A jellyfish monster created by Finster, he could blast lasers from his fingertips as well as spray a toxic mist that was highly corrosive. In battle, he wielded an umbrella, which could deflect attacks as well as send enemies into another dimension where he was practically invulnerable. To escape his dimension, Zack blasted his umbrella with his Power Axe. Jellyfish Warrior seemed to have a weakness to the cold. He was destroyed by the Megazord's Power Sword. He was one of the many monsters that actually communicated with the Rangers, calling the Black Ranger "little mastodon".

Jellyfish Warrior was also among the monsters who aided Rita and Zedd's attack on the Vica Galaxy in "Countdown to Destruction" and was destroyed by Zordon's energy wave.

Note: Jellyfish comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Mantis

  • Episodes: Plague of the Mantis (01x48), Orchestral Maneuvers in the Park (02x14), Countdown To Destruction (06x42)
  • Main Enemy: Trini Kwan

A praying mantis monster created by Finster. It is extremely skilled in Praying Mantis Kung Fu and it is an expert warrior as well, regardless of its affiliation with the treacherous Rita Repulsa. When the Power Rangers attack Mantis, it notifies them that they have no honor and that they do not believe in fighting a fair battle. This especially has a tremendous effect on Trini, who had been training in the art with her sensei, Master Li, and she decides to fight the monster alone in a later encounter in order to maintain her honor. However, once Mantis loses the one-on-one standoff match, Mantis resorts to receiving help from the putties and this leaves Trini asking "What about your honor?" The Mantis gives her the most fitting response applicable. "I have no honor. Like you said, I am one of Rita's monsters." Luckily for Trini, her friends show up in time to help her defeat the Mantis. Trini feels that she did have honor because she gave the Mantis a fair fight even though the Mantis eventually resorted to ganging up on her. Mantis then grew into giant form and was destroyed by the Megazord's Power Sword. He re-appeared briefly in Season 2 as an hallucination caused by the Trumpet Top monster.

Note: Mantis comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Dramole

  • Episodes: Return of an Old Friend (01x49) (01x50), Rangers Back In Time (2x40), The Wedding (02x41) (02x42) (02x43), Countdown To Destruction, (6x42) The Fate Of Lightspeed (8x40)
  • Voice Actor: Kirk Thornton
  • Main Enemy: All Six Rangers

A mole monster that had the ability to trap the Rangers and anyone it sprayed with its smoke. He brainwashed the Rangers except for Kimberly and had them attack her, but Tommy returned to help the team, forcing Rita to make Dramole grow. He had his way with the Megazord and Dragonzord for awhile, even causing the Rangers to need to reboot the Megazord for the first known time, until they formed the Ultrazord. He was soon defeated by the Ultrazord.

He was later recreated in part 2 of "Rangers Back in Time" to guard the Rock of Time, but was defeated again. He was recreated once more by Finster to guard the abandoned Spectre Theater, also attending Zedd and Rita's wedding. He was one of the six monsters who was grown to giant size in part 3 of "The Wedding", and he was destroyed again by the Thunder Megazord's Thunder Saber. Unlike the previous two times, Dramole could speak. Dramole helped Dark Specter conquer the universe before being destroyed for good by Zordon's energy wave.

Note: Dramole comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger. Dramole was intended to have been destroyed by the Megazord. However, it appears that the usage of the Dragonzord Battle Mode and Ultrazord in the battle footage was switched with Soccadillo

Grumble Bee

  • Episodes: Grumble Bee (01x51), Orchestral Maneuvers in the Park (02x14), The Wedding (02x41) (02x42) (02x43)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Casino
  • Main Enemy: Billy Cranston

Grumble Bee was a bee monster created by Finster after Rita Repulsa saw Billy's rage over getting a B on a science test. Grumble Bee was too powerful for Blue Ranger to handle alone, so Yellow Ranger came to her friend's aid. Grumble Bee could shoot greenish-yellow venom which could eat through anything, including the Blue Ranger's suit. He also had vibrating wings that could send yellow pulses of energy through the air that would hurt the ears of anyone who heard the ultra-sonic sound. Later he grows giant, and was defeated by the Megazord's Power Sword.

Grumble Bee later resurfaced as a guest at Rita and Zedd's wedding, and apparently hit on the Invenusable Fly Trap during the celebration. Grumble Bee was also one of the 6 monsters in the showdown against the team of the Thunder Megazord and White Tigerzord (in part 3 of "The Wedding"). He was defeated by the White Tigerzord.


Note: Grumble Bee comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Two-Headed Parrot

  • First Appearance: Two Heads are Better than One (01x52), King For A Day (04x42), Countdown To Destruction (06x42)
  • Voice Actor: Robert Axelrod
  • Main Enemy: Jason Lee Scott and Tommy Oliver

The Two-Headed Parrot was created by Finster when Rita chose to use the old saying "two heads are better than one" on the Rangers. The Parrot appeared as a redish-pink color with one head on the top and the other on the chest. The monster's main weakness was expolited by the Rangers when a Pamango fruit was given to it, causing the two heads to bicker. Rita then made it grow after the Rangers gave it a good trashing. The Megazord and Dragonzord then battled the Two-Headed Parrot with neither side gaining an upper hand. The zord attacks seemed to only agitate the parrot, rather than weaken it, so they formed the Ultrazord. After the Ultrazord was formed the Two-Headed Parrot cowered before the Ultrazord, begging them not to use it on it. Jason then apologeteically explained that they had no choice, and then it was destroyed by the Ultrazord. Although it was never mentioned in the episode, the monster's action figure packaging indicates that the two heads are named Pete and Repeat. The Two-Headed Parrot helped the Machine Empire conquer Eltar before it were destroyed by Zordon's energy wave.

Note: Two-Headed Parrot comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Peckster

  • Episodes: Fowl Play (01x53), The Wedding (02x41) (02x42) (02x43)
  • Voice Actor: Scott Page-Pagter
  • Main Enemy: Zack Taylor

A woodpecker monster created by Finster. He would wave his wings around to create sudden storms and he would also use his extended beak as a weapon, pecking at the Power Rangers. After Zack got the idea to use a fake balloon that was actually filled with a special hard substance, the peckster tried to pop it and this resulted in his beak getting stuck. Rita made Peckster huge and this freed him from the bind, but he was destroyed by a swing of Megazord's Power Sword regardless, exploding in a burst of maniacal laughter. Tommy stayed out of this fight to preserve his unstable Green Ranger powers.

During the Rita and Zedd's marriage, Peckster assisted Rhinoblaster when guarding the Rangers in an abandoned theater, not at all menacing like before, but instead more of a monster version of Bulk and Skull.

Note: Peckster comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Lizzinator

  • Episodes: Enter... The Lizzinator (01x54), Ninja Quest (03x04)
  • Voice Actor: Dave Mallow
  • Main Enemy: Jason Lee Scott

Lizzinator was an extremely powerful lizard monster that possessed Herculean strength, able to lift cars and huge boulders with ease. He also had the ability to fire explosive red energy beams from his eyes and an explosive, gaseous spray from his mouth, which he dubbed his "Super Stink Breath." He had a German accent and sounded like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Created by Finster to destroy the Power Rangers, Lizzinator was forged from supermetals from another galaxy. First encountering Jason, the Lizzinator was unfazed by the Red Ranger's assaults and easily overpowered him. Bored with the fight, the reptile retreated, saying he would come back when he could face all six Rangers together. When Lizzinator appeared next, he was met with the full team, and again gave Jason quite a beating, assaulting him with massive boulders.

Lizzinator might have destroyed Jason if Tommy hadn't intervened, distracting Lizzinator and giving him a rather good pounding. Grown to giant size by Rita, Lizzinator easily overwhelmed the Rangers' Dragonzord and Megazord, so the Rangers quickly formed the Ultrazord. The Ultrazord was able to break through Lizzinator's metal skin with its superior firepower, destroying him in a burst of flame.

Lizzinator was later seen chasing after the Rangers right after Zedd and Rita's wedding, assisting along with the other monsters that had attended their wedding. Much later, Finster recreated Lizzinator (without his German accent) to help Rito Revolto ambush and destroy the Thunderzords. Lizzinator was successful in demolishing the Zords, but was never seen again.

Note: Lizzinator comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Pumpkin Rapper

  • Episodes: Trick or Treat (01x55), Zedd's Monster Mash (02x21)
  • Voice Actor: Michael Sorich
  • Main Enemy: All Six Rangers

A pumpkin monster planted by Squatt and Baboo. Resembling an orange humanoid with an upside-down jack-o-latern on its head, the Pumpkin Rapper spoke mainly in rhymes and rap tone (though one line was spoken in non-rhyming tone). Although it proved a tough adversary with vine tentacles and pumpkin bombs, it was soon taken out by the Power Blaster.

Because the Pumpkin Rapper happened to be one of Zedd's favorite monsters, it was resurrected by Zedd as part of a Halloween monster assault. While the army (consisting of Robogoat, Primator, Rhinoblaster, Invenusable Flytrap, and Snizzard with Doomstone as the leader) was largely unsuccessful, Zedd threw a growing bomb which Pumpkin Rapper used to grow himself only after leaving the dimension. It battled the White Tigerzord until succumbing to the Thunder Megazord's saber. Pumpkin Rapper appeared again helping Zedd and Rita conquer a planet in the Vica Galaxy. He was destroyed by Zordon's energy wave.

Note: Pumpkin Rapper comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Slippery Shark

  • Episodes: On Fins and Needles (01x56), A Reel Fish Story (02x35)
  • Voice Actor: Steve Kramer (normal voice), Scott Page-Pagter (substitute voice)
  • Main Enemy: Jason Lee Scott and Tommy Oliver

A somewhat cowardly hammerhead shark monster created by Finster whose main source of power was a fin on a chain that he wielded. Slippery Shark wielded his boomerang like a sword. Slippery Shark zapped Jason Lee Scott and Tommy Oliver under a trance, putting them through a rivalry against each other. Zordon sent Jason and Tommy together to hunt down Slippery Shark in order to overpower the rivalry spell. Slippery Shark lost his power when his fin was destroyed, then he himself was destroyed by the Megazord's Power Sword.

Slippery Shark was recreated later as one of the best aquatic monsters (under the name Shark Monster) and he was one of the few to attend Master Vile's End of the World Party at the Youth Center. He was also featured in Countdown to Destruction.

Note: Slippery Shark comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

Soccadillo

  • Episodes: Second Chance (01x57), Orchestral Maneuvers in the Park (02x14), The Wedding (02x41, 02x42, 02x43)
  • Voice Actor: Brianne Siddall
  • Main Enemy: All Six Rangers

Soccadillo was an armadillo monster created by Finster. Soccadillo could roll & fly in ball mode. As it was fed energy to transform into its monstrous form, the Soccadillo could become invincible in less than an hour. He could project energy bolts from the spikey areas on his forearms and could project energy from his eyes. After being attacked in the park by the monster in his ball mode, the Red and Green Rangers simultaneously punched the flying Soccadillo in ball mode, causing an explosion which reverted Soccadillo to monster form. When Soccadillo grew to giant heights, he was unharmed by the Dragonzord's missiles. The Megazord's Power Sword destroyed Soccadillo.

Later Apperances

In spite of his apparent destruction, Soccadillo would be seen several more times, spanning multiple series. First, Soccadillo was recreated, along with several other monsters, to trap the Rangers in an abandoned, magical theater. Finster noted that the monsters he recreated for this occasion were some of Rita's favorites. Soccadillo also attended Zedd and Rita's wedding and caught Rita's bouquet in his mouth, remarking, "Weddings always make me cry." After that, he helped chase the Rangers as they retreated to the Command Center and assisted five other monsters in battling the Tigerzord and Thunder Megazord, where he was destroyed by the Thunder Megazord's Thunder Saber. In the Zeo episode, King For A Day, Part I, Soccadillo can be seen very briefly in the stands of Prince Gasket's battle arena, along with glimpses of other Mighty Morphin-era monsters, spanning all three seasons. Presumably, the costumes were reused for the purpose of bodies to fill the arena, with the assumption they would not be directly noticeable if seen so briefly. Soccadilo was next featured in Countdown to Destruction. Soccadillo was also seen on Onyx during the auction to sell off the Pink Quasar Saber in Lost Galaxy.

Note: Soccadillo comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger. Soccadillo was originally intended to be destroyed by the Ultrazord.

Rhinoblaster

  • Episodes: Football Season (01x58), Orchestral Maneuvers in the Park (02x14), Zedd's Monster Mash (02x21)
  • Voice Actor: Richard Epcar
  • Main Enemy: Tommy Oliver

Rhinoblaster was a american football-playing rhinoceros monster created by Finster. He's quick on his feet and very clever. He could emit white mists from his nostrils and place his enemies in a multidimensional vortex. He wields a curved sword. He could project energy bolts from his sword and horn. He had put the Putty Patrol in football jerseys to battle the Power Rangers, then used his white mist to trap the Rangers in the vortex. He was then challenged by Tommy and the Dragonzord. As Rhinoblaster emitted his mist to trap Tommy, Tommy threw the Dragon Dagger into the source of the mist, as Jason caught it, allowing the other Rangers to escape the vortex. But still, the Rhinoblaster overwhelmed the Dragonzord and the Megazord until they combined into the Mega-Dragonzord, and launched its Z-sphere blast that destroyed Rhinoblaster.

Rhinoblaster was later selected, along with Peckster, to guard the Rangers in the Abandoned Theater as Rita and Zedd got married. They failed miserably, as he and Peckster were ensnared in a net by the Rangers, leading to the Rangers' eventual escape. Peckster and Rhinoblaster in the theater were not at all like their original menacing selves, but instead more like a monster version of Bulk and Skull.

Note: Rhinoblaster comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger. Rhinoblaster was originally meant to be destroyed by the Ultrazord.

Commander Crayfish

  • Episodes: Mighty Morphin Mutants (01x59), A Reel Fish Story (02x35)
  • Voice Actor: Tom Wyner (1st Time)
  • Main Enemy: All Six Rangers

Commander Crayfish was a crayfish monster that led the Mutant Rangers (whom were Putties using the Badges of Darkness). He was chosen to lead the Mutant Rangers when no Putty was worthy of becoming the Red Mutant Ranger, being entrusted with the power of the Red Badge of Darkness. He wielded a similar version of the Red Ranger's Power Sword. The Ultrazord was able to destroy Commander Crayfish and the Blue, Green, and Black Mutant Rangers simultaneously. He was the last monster grown giant by using only Rita's wand.

He was recreated by Lord Zedd along with Goo Fish, Slippery Shark, and Pirantishead in "A Reel Fish Story" as one of the four aquatic monsters to attack the Rangers at the beach (he was referred to as Cruel Crayfish this time). He, like the other three monsters, was defeated for good by Tommy.

Note: Commander Crayfish comes from what is commonly referred to as "Zyu2" footage, and was not seen in the original ZyuRanger.

An oyster monster awakened by Rita. He guarded his pearls of power. In battle, he could fire from the holes on his body an acidic gel that can burn through anything. He fought with the Megazord briefly underwater after growing on his own accord, where he had the upper hand. However, Dragonzord (who lived underwater) was able to knock him back onto dry land. Here, the Megazord was able to defeat him with the Power Sword.

Oysterizer was later used to guard the Rock of Time. He later attended Master Vile's End of the World party, appeared in the Machine Arena, and was one of many monsters featured in Countdown to Destruction. Oysterizer was also seen on Onyx as one of the monsters trying to bid on the Pink Quasar Saber, and was last seen in the Shadow World during the finale of Power Rangers: Lightspeed Rescue.
