Monsters Pretending to be Rangers

Here I am talking about when a monster pretends to be one ranger but multiple at once at a time. I can't think of any more, post politely in the comments section.

MMPR (1994)
This is not from Zyuranger but Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, where Primator (from the 'Zyu2' footage) pretends to be Yellow Ranger, Green Ranger and various others.

Lost Galaxy (1999)
Mutantrum disguised as Mike in Lost Galaxy I don't know if he counterpart did so in Gingaman.

Dekaranger (2004) and SPD (2005)
Not exactly the same thing as they didn't copy the image but actually switch bodies. Wootox and Wojonian both switched bodies with the Blue Rangers in order to take control of the Deka Base Robo/Delta Base.

Gekiranger (2007)
Shiyuu hit Retsu and when he went to the mirror, his mirror self took his place. I don't really count it as the monster, he did transform into the monster but he was his offshoot.


Shinkenger (2009)
Narisumashi pretends to be Kotoha, Chiaki, Shinken Green and Shinken Red in Episode 15.

Gokaiger (2011)
It seems a monster will be imitating some of the Gokaiger in ep34.

Gokaiger 33 and Preview for 34
















 Dairanger's Grand Power seems to be fire.


Ep 34:





Power Rangers Samuai - The Ultimate Duel - Review

Mia finishes off her battle with Dayu and Emily gets hurt, they return to their home. Meanwhile, Deker shows off how he can finish off Moogers and threatens humanity into getting Jayden to duel him. Kevin and Mike are against it and Mia is for it, knowing Dayu and Deker's backstory. Mia tells Emily she feels responsible for her injury because she got distracted in wanting to help Dayu. Ocotroo and Xanderd feel Jayden and Deker killing each other is great. Jayden puts Kevin in charge when they fight the Rhinosnorus. The monster becomes huge and Gold is too tired, so the others destroy him. Jayden takes a hit from Dayu on the shoulder but then it seems his arm is in a sling. Deker is then defeated Jayden. It seems he did 'die' but we Shinkenger fans all know he will return. The ending makes it seem like a premature end and the Black Box was only seen but not mentioned, I thought the Battlizer would premiere here, I guess they are waiting for Season 2. Next week is the Origin episodes.

Early Super Sentai - Destiny or Handpicked?

Which teams were handpicked or were destined to become Rangers? Destiny is that they were chosen by 'god' or higher powers, but what I mean by 'handpicked' is if picked out by an organization or person. Thanks to Sean A. for the info on the past teams.
