Targate of the Satellite (衛星のターゲイト Eisei no Tāgeito)is a Thailago Alien (スアイラゴ星人 Suairago Seijin) woring for the Universal Annihilation Army Warstar.
Character History
Targate specializes into teleportation and is one of Monsu Doreiku's top soldiers, offering his aid in eliminating the Goseigers to take Dereputa's place as Monsu Doreiku's right hand. The Goseiger try to first defeat him as he sinks sections of the city, but he escapes with the team pursuing him. Approaching an area where Moune was, he throws Gosei Yellow into one of his portals with a nearby Hyde running after her in order to save her. While the other Goseiger try to hold him off on their own, Moune and Hyde discover the weakness of Targate's portals through the hole they entered into the dimension with, escaping using Gosei Blue's Presshower to slip through the hole. As the team returns together and take him down. They try to destroy Targate with the Gosei Buster's Gosei Dynamic but he survives, leading the team to summon the Sawshark Header, Kuwaga Header, Hawk Header, Crow Header and Rhino Header. They then attached them to thier Gosei Blasters at him simultaneously which finally takes him down with the Sky-Land-Sea Bullet.
After being grown by Bladerun, the Goseiger defeat him with a combination of Mystic Gosei Great Mystic Strike and Datas Hyper's Datas Dynamic Crash.
Personality
to be added
Arsenal
His main ability is the creation of massive "gate" portals which he can use to sink objects into another dimension, appearing inescapable except through a hidden hole which typically can't be seen due to the blinding light of the room. He can also fire yellow lightning from his eyes strong enough to take down Moune with one hit and durable enough to survive the Gosei Buster finishing attack after which he unleashed a shockwave strong enough to take down all five Goseigers with one hit. His ultimate attack seems to be to charge up his arm with scarlet energy and then unleash a massive energy slash which was strong enough to take down and de-transform Alata, Eri, and Agri with one hit.

Notes
- Targate of the Satellite is the last of the Universal Insect Monsters to appear in the series.
- Targate' is the only monster shown to be able to survive the Gosei Buster's finishing attack.
- Uobouzu of the Nessie does not count as he destroyed the attack with his arm blades before it even reached him.
- This does not count Dorunpasu of the Revival as he only appeared in an audio tape.
- Movie Reference: Targate's name is from Stargate (スターゲイト Sutāgeito).
- His power is similar to that of the gate of the movie, opening portals that lead into another world.
- Targate is modeled after a Goliath beetle, which are among the largest in the insect world.
- His home planet, "Thailago" (スアイラゴ ) is "Goliath" (ゴライアス ) backwards.
- Targate has the silver armor with the Warstar insignia worn by the main members of Warstar, meaning he has a higher rank on par with Dereputa and Buredoran.
- Targate is the only Universal Insect Monster that does not reappear in Tensou Sentai Goseiger: Epic on the Movie.
- He is one of the several Universal Insect Monsters that were never got adapted into Universal Insect Monsters. The others were Yuzeikusu of the Ice & Snow, Abauta of the Research, Kurasuniigo of 5000°C, Yokubabanger of the Electric Shock, Powereddark of the Mutation, Fandaho of Nonsense, and Dorunpasu of the Revival.
- However, this is because of Nickelodeon's 22-episode limit. The Mystic Headders and Datas Hyper don't have counterparts, which would be needed in order to even use footage of him.
