Personality[]
Ravi is a competitive, honest and kind hearted young man who values the rules of Grid Battleforce and takes his role seriously. He does not waste time and quickly adapted to his new teammates when they were forced together. He wishes to prove himself to his mother. He strictly follows the rules of Grid Battleforce, even if they break his heart, such as forcing himself to end things with his love interest, Roxy. Despite this however, he later regrets it when Roxy doesn’t become a Ranger and instead gets put into a coma since them becoming Rangers is why he forced himself to break up with her. Ravi is also a skilled martial artist, as it's important for his role as a Power Ranger.
At one point in the show, it's revealed that Ravi also has dentophobia due to a bad experience he had with a dental drill at a young age, which is why he always brushes and flosses his teeth so he doesn't have to go back. TV STORY-Thrills and Drills
Ravi's self-doubting when it comes to his drawings of himself and Roxy. He sees the pictures as terrible artistry, but Joey believes otherwise when he frames one of the drawings, and gives it to Ravi to show gratitude for teaching him martial arts and the rules of their usage. TV STORY-Tuba Triumph
Non-Ranger Powers and Abilities[]
Powers[]
- Superhuman Strength: Due to being linked with Gorilla DNA, Ravi gained the power to lift heavy objects, his power increasing in his Ranger Form.
- Strength Amplification: When overheated, Ravi goes into such an uncontrollable rage so intense he even injured Zoey during a rampage. These outbursts are capable of massively increasing his normal super strength to the point of easily crushing Cycletron's tire arms with his bare hands, kicking a large bench at Vargoyle like it was nothing, picking up a boulder to throw at Roxy easily, and crushing Roxy's Morpher in one hand with no effort.
- Superhuman Durability: When fully enraged during his final battle against Roxy, where they both summoned their blasters, he took a shot right to the stomach from her blaster and didn't even flinch.
- Shock Waves: Ravi's super strength allows him to create blue shockwaves.
- Earthquake: He is so strong that he can create a mini earthquake by hitting the ground.
- Ground Implosion: Ravi can also make the ground implode by pounding it with his fist.
- Inorganic Duplication: By combining with Smash in Beast-X Mode, he can temporarily create an object out of the material he duplicated from the touched surface.

Weaknesses[]
- Overheating: Due to being linked with Gorilla DNA that was semi-corrupted by Evox, Ravi will easily overheat from overusing his ability, causing him to go berserk and attack anyone in sight whether they're friends or foes while gaining a temporary increase to his physical strength. In this state, his personality becomes much more aggressive and arrogant, and shows almost no mercy to his opponents or anyone else around him.
Grid Battleforce Blue Ranger[]
This form is the Blue Ranger's default form used in battle against the Robotrons or other villainous characters. Ravi can manually transform into the Blue Ranger using his Beast-X Morpher and Morph-X Key, however for him to be able to transform he must be bonded with the Gorilla DNA in order to morph into the Blue Ranger.
