New Powers

Icon-gokaigerThis article is about a list of sets of Ranger powers in Power Rangers Super Megaforce.
"Rangers, you've now unlocked new modes that have never been seen before on this Planet."
―Gosei[src]

As part of the Super Mega Rangers new power set, Gosei has given them the ability to not only transform into Historic Rangers but to actually unlock "new powers" never before seen on Earth. These powers represent teams that have never set foot in contemporary Earth. Whether they are aliens, like the Aquitian Rangers or Trey of Triforia, dimension-hoppers like the Ranger Operators, or from the future like the S.P.D. Rangers or the Time Force Rangers is unclear. However, unlike those Rangers, their powers have never been utilized where the Morphing Grid is located currently on Earth is certain.

These "new power" sets are adapted from installments of the Super Sentai franchise that were never adapted into the Power Rangers franchise.

Because of this, in the Legendary Battle, many rangers that have never been adapted into Power Rangers are seen fighting alongside characters that have been adapted, due to Saban using footage that was seen in Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle. The entire Squadron, Lightning, and Prism teams can be seen in certain parts of the Legendary Battle, although it's unknown if this was meant to show the real teams fighting, or if they were left in due to lack of editing.

List of the Ranger Keys

Squadron

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Dairangers
The first new Ranger powers that the Rangers unlocked called Legendary Squadron Rangers seemed similar in appearance to the White Ranger of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, albeit with white details instead of gold or black. They also had a theme strangely similar to the Thunderzords which consisted of legendary animals. They had the ability to channel energy (similar to 'chi' energy) and blast it at the opponent. The Super Mega Rangers, except for Troy, unlocked these in their battle with Cybax's XBorgs.Tvicon TV STORY-Earth Fights Back Later, they used it as a team with Orion partnering up with them to become the thematically similar Mighty Morphin White Ranger. Tvicon TV STORY-The Perfect Storm Their group attack is the "Legendary Strike", which is performed by launching chakrams at their opponent.

Green Ranger

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Daigo of the Heavenly Phantom Star
This Ranger had a motif of a majestic Lion as seen in oriental art. Jake was able to unlock this.

Yellow Ranger

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Kazu of the Heavenly Time Star
This Ranger had a motif of a Qilin, a chimera-like creature. Gia was able to unlock this. The Ranger Key shows the original powers did not have a skirt.

The Yellow Squadron Ranger is seen fighting alongside the Squadron Rangers.

Pink Ranger

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Rin of the Heavenly Wind Star
This Ranger had a motif of the Fenghuang, a mythical bird from Chinese mythology. Emma was able to unlock this.

During the Legendary Battle, the Pink Squadron Ranger could be seen in the battle.

Red Ranger

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Ryo of the Heavenly Fire Star
This Ranger had a motif of the serpentine Chinese dragon. It is unclear if it came unlocked with the other powers or if Troy had unlocked it before the battle with Matacore. Troy considers this one of his most powerful close combat Legendary Modes. Tvicon TV STORY-Samurai Surprise In the Legendary Battle, he could be seen alongside Jungle Fury Red Ranger.
Notes
  • "Squadron" is a translation of "Sentai", the namesake of Super Sentai.
  • Tommy Oliver's White Ranger powers are also from Gosei Sentai Dairanger, and are the adapted version of Kou of the Howling New Star.
  • During the production of Super Megaforce, the Legendary Squadron was given the name Power Rangers Star Force in early casting sides. [1]
    • In the Indonesian Dub, Dairanger was called "Star Ranger", similar to the name "Star Force".
      • "Star Ranger" was also an international distribution name by Toei that can be seen also on the behind-the-scenes video by Jeff Pruitt where it features the core Dairanger suits in the demo.[2]

Lightning

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Maskmen
The Lightning Rangers were the second power set that the Rangers were shown using and were featured during the battle with Matacore's XBorgs. Tvicon TV STORY-Samurai Surprise These Rangers seem to be highly adept at martial arts. Their Legendary Ranger Keys also allow the Legendary Megazord to perform an aura attack. Tvicon TV STORY-The Legendary Battle: Extended Edition

Yellow Ranger

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Haruka (Maskman)
Gia chose this Ranger as one of her most powerful Legendary Modes to sense coming attacks.  Tvicon TV STORY-Samurai Surprise

Notes
  • When Gia morphs into Yellow Mask in Samurai Surprise she says "Legendary Ranger Blitz", but Blitz is the name of a different set of new powers. However, when Noah transforms into Blue Mask in The Wrath, he correctly refers to this form as "Lightning Mode: Blue!".
  • Right after the Rangers transform into "New Powers", they get knocked down by their enemy. The camera zooms in onto him as the shot excludes the Rangers in their New Powers suits all based on the Legendary Dragon, and then repeats almost identically but this time the Red Ranger is suited up as Lightning Red.

Prism

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Flashmen
The Prism Rangers were third power set that the Rangers were shown using were featured during the battle with Matacore's XBorgs. Tvicon TV STORY-Samurai Surprise These Rangers seem to use hard light/prism power as hand-to-hand combat power augmentations.

Notes
  • Although those who are familiar with Choushinsei Flashman know, nothing revealed in Super Megaforce tells which gender for the green ranger is correct.
    • Footage of all the Rangers charging from 199 Heroes shows a male Green Prism Ranger, but the rest of the Legendary Battle suggests only the adapted teams were actually part of the battle.

Notes

Behind the Scenes

  • Of the sixteen powers, seven of them belonged to Rangers who guest starred on Gokaiger (Dai, Ryo, Shoji, Kazu, Akira, Shou, Remi).
  • Troy's and Emma's Legendary Squadron and Legendary Blitz forms share the same animal motifs as their base Megaforce powers, a dragon and a phoenix respectively.
  • The concept of the New Powers was heavily criticized by longtime fans, as some saw it as lazy/poor editing of Sentai footage. Its execution story-wise was a major point of criticism as the powers are never fully explained in-universe.
  • During the episode Bully for Ethan in Power Rangers Dino Thunder, the symbols for five of these teams (Squadron, Lightning, Prism and Dragon/Blitz, Supersonic) are seen in Tommy's Dino Lab.
  • With the exception of the Battalion and Supersonic Rangers, each of the team names comes from a term related to their respective Super Sentai counterparts.
  • So far, Supersonic Rangers are the only Team that have original name.
    • However, their name were revealed in the graphic novel only.
