This article is about a monster in Power Rangers Time Force. |
Tronicon was a large and powerful golden robot which was the main antagonist of the episode "The Time Shadow".
History[]
Tronicon is created by Frax to destroy the Time Force Ranger and Silver Hills to prove that robots are superior to Mutants. He is powered by a Trizyurium Crystal which Frax created from the Zyrium Powder that Izout stole from Mr. Collins' Bio-Lab.
Tronicon is sent to destroy the city and is enlarged when Frax removes his Seal Patch before deploying him to town.
When it attacks the city, the Rangers can't use their Megazord because it is heavily damaged from the battle with Izout. They try to fight the robot with their V-Weapons but it is useless against the sinister machine. Mr. Collins sends the Raimei Destroyer against it but, despite the help of the Rangers, Tronicon easily destroys this weapon. The robotic monster continues his destructive rampage and the Rangers can't fight with it so they evacuate all the people and try to battle against the monster with their weapons to no avail. When all looks lost, the mysterious Shadow Winger arrives (having been sent by a mysterious figure) which transforms into the Time Shadow Megazord and, after the big battle. With this extra help, the Megazord finally destroys the villainous robot. TV STORY-The Time Shadow
