"Lord Zedd my boy, thanks for the toy."
―Pachinko Head[src]

Pachinko Head is a pachinko monster, created by Lord Zedd from Ernie's pachinko machine. Pachinko Head possessed playful and mischievous nature and always spoke in rhymes. He serves as the main antagonist of the episode " Rocky Just Wants to Have Fun".

Biography

When Rocky enjoyed playing Ernie's new play automate on the game Pachinko, Zedd cast a spell on it causing Rocky to have an unhealthy addiction to having fun. Rocky thought only about games. Then Zedd turned the automate into a new monster called Pachinko Head, who possessed a playful and mischievous personality and always spoke in rhymes. Zedd then ordered his new creation to attack Angel Grove. Pachinko Head attacked the city and soon encountered the Power Rangers minus Rocky. The monster lured the Rangers on the field and turned them into softball-sized pachinko balls, before leaving. Tommy brought his transformed friends to the Command Center and Alpha while seeking a way to revert the Rangers to their normal states. Tommy then returned to the city and again encountered the monster. After a brief fight on the ground with Tommy, Pachinko Head grew to the giant size. Tommy battled him in his Tigerzord in warrior mode but the monster overwhelmed him. Meanwhile, Alpha found a way to save the Rangers and reverted them to their normal states and they went to aid Tommy. Free of the spell Zedd placed on him, Rocky also joined his friends in battle. Rocky appeared first in his Red Dragon Thunderzord but the monster overpowered him as well. However, the other Rangers formed Thunder Megazord and White Tigerzord and battled the monster. Finally, they used Thunder Saber and destroyed Pachinko Head. After his destruction, Pachinko Head reverted back to the form of the play automate and returned to Ernie's bar.

Personality

Pachinko Head was playful, mischievous and overall funny creature. While not actually an evil individual, he proved to be a formidable opponent for the Rangers. He enjoyed jokes and always spoke in rhymes.

Powers And Abilities

  • Strength-Pachinko Head is a very strong monster, one of the strongest of the season in fact, as he managed to defeat five of the Rangers and later the White Tigerzord and Red Dragon Thunderzord.
  • Durability-Being based upon a large metal machine, Pachinko Head has strong enough skin to resist multiple kicks from the Red Dragon Thunderzord without reacting as well as multiple strikes from it's staff without being fazed.
  • Pachinko Ball Creation-Pachinko Head can dance around and turn the Rangers into pachinko balls just by dancing.
  • Energy Fireball-Pachinko Head can fire a large orange fireball from his single eye. This is his strongest attack as it wiped out the White Tigerzord and knocked Tommy out of it with one hit.

Arsenal

  • Fists-Whilst lacking weapons, Pachinko Head is as great at using his fists as the Red Dragon is with it's staff.

Behind The Scenes

Portrayal

Notes

  • In Dairanger, Pachinko Head proved immune to Dairen'oh's punches but tripped and was killed by being crushed to death under Daijinryuu's foot. Daijinryuu was adapted as Serpentera although, unlike his PR counterpart, he was an intergalactic peacekeeping cop (the footage used for him destroying the Sword of Light's home planet coming from an assault on the Dairanger villain base.)
    • This was all changed to him being destroyed by the Thunder Megazord presumably because it would make no sense for Zedd to kill his own monster for no reason.
