Mr. Ticklesneezer is the timid and kind elf themed creature that appeared only in a dream of Trini's. He serves as the monstrous anti-hero of the episode "For Whom The Bell Trolls". He is notable for being the first sympathetic monster whereas all others before and after him were ireedemable, Ticklesneezer has a kind and caring personality and was only working for Rita to stay alive (literally). He is the first in the vein of anti-heroic monsters such as Waspicable and later Notacon.
History
A rather friendly and timid troll-like elf monster that was originally a doll owned by Trini Kwan's mother when she was young. In the box where he was, was a legend that Mr. Ticklesneezer can collect different things. In Trini's dream, Mr. Ticklesneezer was brought to life. His specialty was collecting.
Mr. Ticklesneezer enjoyed collecting large objects (or "goodies"). Rita Repulsa wanted to use these skills to capture the Power Rangers and the world.
Squatt brought him to life and brought to Rita. She sent him to Earth and he started to kidnap buildings and trains.
When Mr Ticklesneezer encountered the Rangers and fought the Megazord, he put it in the bottle. But the Rangers freed themselves and Trini told him to stop kidnapping buildings and return everything he had taken. He returned everything he collected and returned to the form of an old, kind doll as Trini's dream ended. TV STORY-For Whom the Bell Trolls
Personality
Mr. Ticklesneezer is not like Rita's monsters, since he is not evil at all. But he is very introverted and likes to collect things that he should not such as buildings. He was shown to be highly loyal to Rita. However, he also kept up his friendship with Trini and listened to her when she told him to stop.
