This article is about a timeline of events that occur in Power Rangers RPM. |
- "I'm from the world of the RPM Rangers. We live on an Earth ruined by an evil computer virus."
- ―Gemma[src]
The RPM World is the dimension where Power Rangers RPM takes place. While originally intended to be part of the main Power Rangers universe, it was changed to be an alternate dimension in the crossover, Clash of the Red Rangers - The Movie.
This dimension's Earth was much like our own, except that it's been taken over by the Venjix Virus which attacked and destroyed most of the human population, converting a few into machine/human hybrids. The remaining humans have survived under the domed city of Corinth, which is protected by the Ranger Operators.
Timeline[]
The events of Power Rangers RPM do not occur within the same timeline as the other Power Ranger seasons. Former executive producer Eddie Guzelian has said that his original intent was for RPM to stand alone with regards to its story, not necessarily its continuity with relation to the previous Ranger seasons; and several references to past seasons were made inside RPM with intent to establish it to be part of the main timeline while not intruding upon that story, and Venjix's control of global networks and communication being why the setting of RPM was isolated from all contact with other potential help from other Ranger teams until its conclusion.
It was not until the production of Samurai and their crossover under Executive Producer Johnathan Tzachor that this was disregarded, and RPM was formally removed from the main timeline's continuity as occurring in a separate universe. As revealed by Tzachor at Power Morphicon 2011, he personally did not consider anything made after Wild Force to be Canon. Consequently, this separation was intended as part of a larger planned effort by Tzachor to spin off all the Disney-era produced Power Rangers seasons (Ninja Storm through RPM) as occurring in a separate timeline from the previous Saban seasons (MMPR through Wild Force), which did not continue past the changes made to RPM's Continuity due to the later-revealed necessity of adapting Gokaiger for Megaforce, which heavily depended upon adapting material that related to those seasons.
