Default Ranger Powers

I have a couple of questions for all of you Power Ranger fans out there. How many seasons do the Rangers lose their powers at the end of them? I know the MMPRs lose their powers at the beginning of Season 3, following the destruction of the Thunderzords at the hands of Rito Revolto, as well as at the beginning of MMAR when Rita and Zedd destroy the Ninja power coins, but are the powers truly lost? I mean Adam and Jason both have their MMPR powers restored, Justin and TJ get their Turbo powers restored, the Ninja Storm Rangers get their powers restored, Tori gets her Wind Ninja Storm Ranger powers restored by Sentinel Knight, and the Dino Rangers get their powers restored when they're teleported to 2025 by Broodwing in SPD, but, did any Rangers, or Ranger teams lose their powers permanently so they can't be restored, or is that dependent on the status of the Morphing Grid?

Also are all the Rangers' powers linked to their Zords? I know the MMPRs lost their Dino powers after the Thunderzords were destroyed, but that was due to a backlash of energy running through the Morphing Grid, as Tommy had ordered Alpha to feed as much power into the Thunder Megazord and the Tigerzord as possible despite the strain on the Power Accelerator.

I also read somewhere, though I can't remember where, that if Zordon and Alpha hadn't infused the Dinozords with the power of Thunder to change them into the Thunderzords, Jason, Zack, Billy, Trini, and Kimberly would've lost their powers for the same reason Rocky, Adam, Billy, Aisha, Kimberly and Tommy did in "Ninja Quest", because of excess energy from the Zords, running through the Morphing Grid.

Are there any other Ranger powers that are dependent on the operation of the Rangers' Zords? Or does it just depend on how much power is flowing through the Morphing Grid at the time the Zords are destroyed?

The only season I can think of where the Zords are the dependence factor was Wild Force. They're chosen by the Power Animals to receive powers over everyone else. A spiritual bond had to be formed with Zords externally before they could become Rangers. If these Zords are destroyed, so would go the powers.

I'm not sure whether in Lost Galaxy the Rangers being able to pull the Quasar Sabers was a consequence of the Galactabeasts choosing each person.

Most other times, the Zords are an accompaniment to the arsenal that's powered by something else, like Dino Gems, advanced technology, magic, kung fu, Symbol power, etc. The Rangers still have other Ranger powers if these Zords are lost, because they're not dependent on them.

I like the Tommy idea better too. Much better than Jason taking his powers from a bad guy.

Zords are usually separate. Unless they are the power source like in Wild Force. Look at how many zords the MMPR Rangers went through.

I think the Animal Crystals were the power source. They were also linked to the zords directly. So no zords, no powers.

Thats one of the few sets of zords that was connected to their team's powers.

The Dragonzord was dependent on the Green Rangers Powers. Tommy couldn't really use it in season 2 because his powers were low. So it was the reverse senario in that case. Coin powered the zord in that case.

not so much dependent on the coin itself but whether whoever was controlling it.

I like the idea that Jason got it back from the evil Red Ranger. Maybe Zedd pit a spell on him and made hom Evil White. It was never revealed who that was but he was someone that knew Tommy. I could see Tommy destroying the Tiger Coin to free Jason. But somehow the Red Coin eas saved and purified for Jason.
