"Momorenger!"

―Momorenger's roll call^[src]

Peggy Matsuyama (ペギー 松山, Pegī Matsuyama) is Momorenger (モモレンジャー, Momo Renjā, Pink Ranger) of the Gorengers, with the designation number "4". Her father was a Swiss national and her mother was Japanese. She was assigned to EAGLE's Hokkaido branch as a chemical analyst and special weapons engineer specializing in explosives. She also had equestrian training.

History

Gorenger

Peggy survived after the Black Cross Army attacked.

When the Black Cross Army launched an assault on the EAGLE bases in Japan, a force led by Jade Mask attacked the Hokkaido base, slaughtering everyone with only Peggy surviving. Along with the survivors of the other bases, Peggy was summoned to Snack Gon, the secret gateway to EAGLE Japan's main command center by Japan's EAGLE Commander Gonpachi Edogawa. There they were given special formfitting electronic battlesuits, which empower its wearer with various superhuman abilities. Edogawa told them that they are the Secret Squadron "Gorenger", the world's best chance against the forces of the Black Cross Army. Their first battle was with Gold Mask, who they destroyed with the Gorenger Storm. TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Crimson Sun! The Invincible Gorengers

Legend War

Momorenger in Legend War.

Many years later, Peggy fought alongside not only her own team, but every single Sentai Ranger in existence, against the Empire of Zangyack when it attacked the Earth in the Great Legend War. After fighting against hundreds of Gormin and their Sugormin commanders, her team's leader, Akarenger noticed the fleet moving towards them. He then gathered all the Rangers together and gave them the order to sacrifice their powers to wipe out the first invasion's armada. The Momorenger powers are later used by Ahim de Famille via the Ranger Keys. TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Space Pirates Appear MOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle

Farewell Space Pirates

After the defeat of Ackdos Gill, Marvelous returned the Ranger Keys to their original owners. Peggy's leader, Tsuyoshi saw them leave Earth as he got his key back. It is assumed Peggy and her teammates have their powers back as well. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates

Super Hero Taisen

The Gorengers (bar Akarenger), alongside the Gekirangers, Go-Ongers, Goseigers, and Shinkengers, emerge through a dimensional wall.

Peggy, alongside her team, among the majority of the Super Sentai heroes, was caught up in the "Super Hero Taisen" incident which eventually resulted in the Super Sentai teams and Kamen Riders joining forces to defeat both Dai-Zangyack and Dai-Shocker. In the background of the second aerial attack scene, she was seen in the background fighting Buramudo. MOVIE STORY-Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen

Personality

Fashionable, she often wore go-go boots and short hip-hugging “hot pants”. She can also be a dirty fighter as she kicked Momotaros as Kamen Rider Den-O in the crotch in Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Chou Super Hero Taisen.

Momorenger

Momorenger

As Momo Ranger, she was armed with an assortment of uniquely “feminine” weapons. Her heart-shaped earrings doubled as high impact bombs which she would hurl with a curt taunt -- "Are you ready?... Here we go!" (Ii wa ne... Iku wa yo!, "Are you ready?... Here we go!"). She also carried heart-shaped “Momo Card” throwing shurikens, and a “Momo Mirror” jamming device which would confuse and confound her opponents.

She also had the “Momo Ceceli” which could be used to track down and spy on opponents. And ultimately, she carried the "Ranger Ball", the Gorengers' ultimate finisher weapon that would destroy the Mask Monster of the day, which the team members would pass around to each other like a soccer ball before Akaranger would deliver the finishing kick to the Masked Monster causing it to explode. She rides in the “Green Machine/Green Star” sidecar.

The Momorenger Ranger Key.

"Gorenger!"

―Mobilates' Gokai Change announcement^[src]

The Momorenger Ranger Key (モモレンジャーレンジャーキー, Momo Renjā Renjā Kī) is Peggy Matsuyama's personal Ranger Key and what became of her powers after she along with the rest of the 34 Super Sentai sacrificed their powers to end the Great Legend War.

This key along with the majority of the Ranger Keys were collected by the Red Pirates and later used by the Gokaigers. The Momorenger Ranger Key was mainly used by Ahim de Famille (Gokai Pink), who used it to fight as Momorenger.

• The Gokaigers became the Gorengers in their first ever Gokai Change on Earth. TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Space Pirates Appear
• Ahim also became Momorenger, this time on her own, while fighting Action Commander Zaggai. TV STORY-Ep. 13: Tell Me the Way
• The Gokaigers became the Gorengers in their baseball match with resurrected Black Cross Army monster Baseball Mask. MOVIE STORY-Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger the Movie: The Flying Ghost Ship

The Gorenger Keys, along with all the Ranger Keys of the first 33 Super Sentai, were briefly taken by the Black Cross King and turned into Ranger puppets that were fought by the Gokaigers and the Goseigers. At the start of the battle, the Gorengers had a brief skirmish with the two teams alongside the keys of three recent teams, the Gekirangers, Go-Ongers, and Shinkengers. The Gorengers appeared again after all the other puppets were defeated, with a Gorenger Hurricane ball being kicked at Gokai Red and Super Gosei Red. The Gorengers stood behind the three recent teams who fired their cannons at the Gokaigers and Goseigers, who countered with their team finishers, taking down the three teams as Gokai Red and Super Gosei Red finished off the fake Gorengers. MOVIE STORY-Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle

After Zangyack were finally defeated, the Gokaigers gave the Ranger Keys back to their rightful owners. Peggy received her key and became Momorenger once more. TV STORY-Final Ep.: Farewell Space Pirates

Gorenger Avataro Gear

The Gorenger Avataro Gear could be used by any of the Core Donbrothers to transform into their respective Gorenger counterpart. It could be used by Tsuyoshi Kijino to transform into Momorenger.

Notes

• She is the only Gorenger to appear untransformed in J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai vs. Gorenger.
• Peggy is the first Sentai Ranger to be a Hafu—a term used to refer to a person ethnically half Japanese and half non-Japanese.

Momorenger on the Pink Megaforce Ranger card.

• Momorenger is seen in a Pink Megaforce Ranger card in previews for the Power Rangers Action Card Game Series 3, Universe of Hope. Her appearance is unexplained.
• Out of all the Gorengers, she is the only one to have her color not mean "pink" in Japanese. In Japanese, "momo" means "peach", whereas pink is Japanese for "pinku".
