* About half of the time, the [[Mooks]] in ''[[Power Rangers]]'' are robots, including the Cogs (though the Putties of ''[[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers|Mighty Morphin]]'' were actually golems). Robot or not, however, ''Power Rangers''' mooks are almost never shown to be killed, instead teleporting away once they have been incapacitated. ''[[Power Rangers Operation Overdrive|Operation Overdrive]]'' changes this, however, with a nearly unprecedented level of mook destruction, and at least one of the two sets of mooks are indeed alive. Quite a few Rinshi in ''[[Power Rangers Jungle Fury]]'' got reduced to purple dust, too. ''[[Power Rangers RPM|RPM]]'' goes back to having more durable grunts.) The same courtesy is seldom extended to the [[Monster of the Week]].
** In a bit of a retcon, Divatox's mooks in the ''[[Power Rangers Turbo|Turbo]]'' movie were quite clearly humanoids in fish-styled armor (we even see several of them with their faceplates off), but for the series, they've been downgraded to a non-humanoid fishlike race. The "tron" in "Piranhatron" suggests they're Mecha-Mooks, but they make squishy sounds when hit.
