Pouchien Bolapen (パウチ星人ボラペーノ Pauchi Seijin Borapēno, 28) is an Alienizer from planet Pouch.
History[]
Bolapen is a known shapeshift with a habit of copying other Alienizers to disguise his own crimes. He is first seen posing as Rikmolian Kevakiear trying to nab a small child after kidnapping his mother but fails when the Dekarangers arrive and retreats back into the computer.
They soon locate him in the street posing as Anrian Beildon before switching to Ridomihan Kersus and finally Cuwartian Dazgonelr before leading them to a basement where he vanishes with no explanation but leads them to a video of the capture of Speckionian Genio.
This leads Tetsu to confront Genio about this and he reveals Bolapen as the captive before stating that thousands will die if he is not stopped.
Once this is passed on to the Dekarangers, they find Bolapen posing as Zamuzan Sheik at the very same construction site where that Alienizer was killed.
Banban reveals that they know who he is so he goes for his sword but Banban blasts it out of his hand with his D-Magnums and they take down Bolapen with their D-Snipers in knuckleduster mode which forces him back to his true form. Finally relenting, he shows off a highlights reel of all of his forms before slinking into the ground when Banban tries to clobber him and revealing his true self.
When the Dekarangers are unimpressed by his antics, he goes into battle and beats them senseless until they equip their D-Rods and so he becomes Blitz Hells and wipes them out with Blitz’s signature machine gun. Once they recover from this, Bolapen uses his signature Grateful God Thunder attack but the Dekarangers (having defeated this one before) easily obliterate the circle and charge through machine gun blasts. Using a hail of D-Magnum fire combined with the other four Dekaranger jump kicks and slashes, Bolapen is knocked back before they form the Deka Tower and wipe him out with the Pyramid Shot. Forced back to his true form, Hoji declares that it’s curtains for him but Bolapen decides to use his “curtain call” and leapfrogs over Banban into a rebuilt God Pounder. The Dekarangers summon the Deka Machines to form Dekaranger Robo and, despite Pouchien Bolapen claiming that he'll never be defeated, God Pounder’s lunge is blocked by Dekaranger Robo who flips it to the floor. It then pins God Pounder’s arm and leg in such a way that it’s right arm is broken and most of it’s systems are broken. As it gets back up, Banban judges Pouchien Bolapen for the crimes of impersonating Alienizers and committing the same offences as them. Bolapen is initially worried about the end result and then seemingly calm about the guilty verdict only to snap and charge at Dekaranger Robo even as it aims the Signal Cannon. Unfortunately for him, they unleash the Justice Flasher finisher which makes God Pounder face-plant and explode with Pouchien Bolapen going down with it.
Legacy[]
Despite Pouchien Bolapen’s death, it is later revealed that he was working for Speckionian Genio to try and impress his idol and the entire scheme was one big contrived way to force Tetsu to meet him again. He later succeeds in making Tetsu cry, escaping Crysto Prison and forcing a final showdown with the Dekaranger.
Personality[]
Bolapen was a very bombastic and energetic individual who was extremely arrogant but also highly skilled in acrobatics and impersonation. He took great pride in his crimes but became extremely angry when he was losing or about to die.
