- "Phantom Beast General Snapper, with the Spirit of the Snapping Turtle!"
- ―Snapper's roll call[src]
Snapper was the Phantom Beast General that had the Snapping Turtle animal spirit. He possessed Rinzin power.
Character History
Snapper along with Whiger, Scorch, and five other Phantom Beasts they had attempted to overthrow Dai Shi during the Beast War. The resulting feud had caused the attack on the humans to stand on weak ground. With the finding of the Crystal Eyes in which the Generals were contained they resolved to ally completely with Dai Shi, plotting to make him Phantom Beast King and eliminate his humanity, ensuring the success of the Final Beast Wars. With Scorch, he attempts to have Camille destroyed after Whiger had his Rinzin stolen from him, and was stripped of his rank and destroyed. This puts him at odds once again with Dai Shi. Later, when Jarrod breaks free of Dai Shi, Snapper aids Scorch in hunting down him and Camille, only to battle the Rangers, Jarrod and Camille. Snapper was eventually destroyed by Camille using a massive drill like attack and the other Rangers while Casey and Jarrod fought Scorch. Snapper was revived by Dai Shi for the final Beast War, but was destroyed again by Master Phant while battling the Power Rangers and the Pai Zhuq Masters.

Powers and Abilities
Rinzin Power
- Superhuman Strength-Snapper took out the Jungle Master and Wolf Pride Megazords just by touching them and made the Rhino Pride Megazord topple over without even touching it.
- Durability-Snapper has a very tough brown shell on his front that allowed him to completely shrug off a strike from RJ and the Rhino Morpher simultaneously.
- Energy Blasts-Snapper can charge up his hand with Rinzin Power and fire yellow energy that might have killed Lily had they not been energy slashed apart by Camile.
- Energy Waves-Snapper can charge himself up with Rinzin Power and unleash yellow energy waves capable of taking down two Megazords with three hits.
- Rinzin Headbutt-Snapper can charge up his head with Rinzin Power and headbutt with enough force to send Camile backwards.
- Skilled Fighter-Sonimax can take on four Rangers and Camile all by himself althhough they were able to destroy him.
- Enlarging-Snapper can make himself grow at will, also being able to do so mid-teleport apparently as shown when he arrived to help Sonimax.
- Teleportation: Snapper can teleport himself and others adjacent to him to any location at will.
Arsenal
- Fists-Snapper lacks any melee weapons, much like the other Phantom Beasts but is horribly sklled with his bare hands.
- Rinzin Empowerment-Snapper can charge up his fists with yellow Rinzin Power and touch his enemies, sending them flying into the air and explode, as shown when he did this to the Megazords and is his strongest attack. When used in his final battle, where he used an uppercut and not just a light touch, it sent RJ and Dominic flying across the battlefield.
