"Huh?"

―Scorpitron's only word before his destruction^[src]

Scorpitron was the scorpion-themed Ectomorphicon Titan under the employ of Ivan Ooze.

Zord History

Past

Ivan Ooze was an evil alien tyrant and a treacherous sorcerer, who (according to Zordon), "ruled the world with a reign of unparalleled terror." However, this was not enough for Ivan since he desired to conquer the entire universe so built his ultimate weapons; the Ectomorphicon Titans; gigantic Zord like beings to conquer the universe. However, Ivan Ooze was imprisoned in thr Hyperlock Chamber by Zordon, Dulcea and the "Order of Meridian" who presumably were the precursors to the modern-day Power Rangers and the Titans were sealed underground close to him 6000 years ago. The Hyperlock Chamber with Ivan in ooze form was sealed "deep underground" somewhere beneath the modern day city of Angel Grove, California.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie

After being unleashed and betraying Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa, Ivan enslaves the parents of Angel Grove to dig up the massive machines. Scorpitron is unleashed after Hornitor and then energized before wreaking havoc in Angel Grove with their impressive firepower. When the Power Rangers return from Phaedos (having had to acquire a new power to defeat Ivan), they use their new Ninja Zords to fight it and Hornitor. Hornitor fights with the Ape and Bear Zords whilst the Wolf and Frog fight Scorpitron. The fight is even until Adam gets Scorpitron by the neck with his FrogZord's tongue and fries it which allows Tommy to swoop in and obliterate Scorpitron with a salvo of missiles from the Ninja FalconZord.

Scorpitron appears as a boss in the Genesis adaptation of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie.

Whilst Scorpitron is not a fightable boss in the Game Gear version, it appears in cutscenes and unlike the movie, fuses with Ooze and Hornitor to create the unnamed final boss which has traits of Scorpitron incorporated. The fusion is playable in the VS and Link Cable modes of the game.
