Ranger Powers - Page 3

I've heard of that comic. It was a Power Rangers Zeo comic, where Lord Zedd harnessed the energies of the original power coins and the Zeo Rangers, plus Jason, since this is supposed to be after he had returned the Gold Ranger powers to Trey of Triforia. Zedd wanted to make Dark Rangers using the power coins, but he lost them, or something happened so he couldn't.

In the Power Rangers in Space review he did, Linkara gave a theory, that when the Thunderzords were destroyed and created the massive power surge that destroyed the Command Center's power core, damaged the Dino power coins, and the original power morphers, and stripped the Rangers of their Morphin powers, was indeed just that, a power surge. It just blocked the Rangers' access to their powers and since the Command Center was damaged, and Zordon didn't create the power coins, he couldn't fix them. At least not in time to prevent Rito from destroying Angel Grove. And, it would also explain why Rita or the Wizard of Deception was able to fully recharge the Dragon power coin, restoring the Green Ranger powers, in order to give them to Tommy's clone.

Ninjor created the Dino and Ninja power coins, but it seems that Rita herself created the Green power coin, which is why she was able to control the Dragonzord, and drain Tommy of his powers with the Green Candle, once he'd touched the wax that created the candle, and why Lord Zedd was able to use whatever was left of the Green Ranger powers to create the four Power Candles to drain the other Rangers of their powers in 'Missing Green'.

Anyway, given enough time, it's possible that Tommy and Hayley could've studied the original Ranger technology and repair the Tyrannosaurus power coin and morpher, so Jason could utilize the Tyrannosaurus powers if necessary. And, in Adam's case, the Sentinel Knight had the ability to restore the Mastodon power coin, giving Adam his powers back. But that makes me wonder why the Sentinel Knight couldn't repair the part of the Morphing Grid the Overdrive Rangers used for their powers when Thrax destroyed it. The writers probably just used that as an excuse to bring Alpha 6 back.

^ I've always believed the Z-Wave Energy restored Jason's coin.

Although not a Zord, the space powers were linked to the megaship. I remember during the "Impenetrable Web" episode, when the mega ship was caught in the web the space rangers were forced to change back. However after LG we still see andros morphed, even after the mega ship was destroyed. So maybe a) he rewired the technology to work on it's own, or b) he just rewired the technology to the new megaship to act as the host.

I actually like that explanation. It makes sense, since Tommy seems to be the head honcho of the entire Power Rangers force. He's the only one, besides Adam who keeps coming back, and he was the one who sent Andros to track General Venjix and the remnants of the Machine Empire, and then summoned all the Red Rangers he could find (Power Rangers Samurai having not been created yet, ergo no Samurai Ranger team active at the time, and Rocky not being there) to destroy Serpentera. So it would make sense that he would learn everything he could about Zordon, his powers, and whatever he left for the Power Rangers in case he was ever destroyed so they could continue without him.

I also like Linkara's theory about the original powers being intact, but because the power coins and morphers were damaged by the blowout, they couldn't be accessed.

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?

Not very often MMPR lost their powers twice prior to their finale, Turbo only lost theirs temporarily, Wild Force lost theirs but they were restored and as we know Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder had theirs drained but Tori and Kira's were restored by the Sentinel Knight and their remaining teammates later got their powers restored as well. The Ninja Coins are gone so yes those are gone but during the destruction of the Thunderzords that resulted in an overload which damaged the Dino Coins and Tiger Coin's link so they are not gone they are simply damaged. The Turbo powers were never destroyed they were just simply disabled due to Eltar being conquered which was their grid link but Justin and T.J. both had a backup link for their powers with their sentient vehicles; Storm Blaster and Lightning Cruiser.

All powers can be restored no matter what happened to them even the destroyed Ninja Coins can be restored.

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.

only Wild Force is connected to their zords no other team has been connected to their zords.

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?

there's no truth that they would've lost their powers if the Dinozords weren't put into the Thunderzords not to mention the same kind of situation wouldn't have been happening since the overload that happened in "Ninja Quest" is the main reason why they lost their zords and therefore their powers there wouldn't have been an overload issue in "The Mutiny"

Zeo zords: Made after the powers
Time force: Idem Lightspeed
Wild force: Powers came from animal crystals so they have a strong link
Ninja storm: Zords created after the powers, powers were related to their own ninja power and where not taken away

not quite the Ranger powers weren't accessible but they could still access the Falconzord via the remote which would lead one to believe that they could access the other Ninjazords if they needed to.

we don't know that about the Shogunzords.

only the Zeozords and Battlezord were made after the powers.

we don't know who created the zords in Time Force BUT we can assume that Alex created the Shadow Winger

The powers didn't come from the Animal Crystals.

we don't know when the zords were created.

Wasn't the Dark Red Ranger coin theory put out their by Amit's friends and nor by Amit himself?

MMPR Forever · 01/06/18, 08:21 AM

It makes sense that Tommy would want to restore the MMPR Powers! Ijust wish thr show revovled around the nee MMPR team. Even if it was now new characters .

DinoThunderKira · 01/08/18, 01:13 PM

I am going to go with the theory that Tommy restored the powers.

I don't think all Ranger Powers are tied to the Zords. Just the few we have seen.
