* [[Ship Tease]]: With Cassie, continuing from Turbo: at the end of his last message to the Rangers...
{{quote| "I'll be alright, Cassie. Please - don't forget me."}}
* [[The Un -Reveal]]: Perhaps the biggest unanswered question in the entire PR metaseries. Who ''is'' he?
** It's likely the suit is his real body.
 
Line 124:
* [[Eccentric Mentor]]
* {{spoiler|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]}}
* [[I Cannot Self -Terminate]]: Not due to programming, magical rules, or honor codes, but because of a ''lack of limbs''.
* {{spoiler|[[Obi -Wan Moment]]}}
* [[Sealed Good in Aa Can]]: He escaped the time warp he was sealed in 10,000 years ago - but now he's sealed in the communications tube he was using to contact people ''from'' the time warp.
 
=== Alpha 6 | <small>(Voice actress: [[Wendee Lee]])</small> ===
* [[Hey, ItsIt's That Voice!]]: Who knew [[Wendee Lee|Haruhi]] [[Haruhi Suzumiya|Suzumiya]] used to be a robot?
* [[Robot Buddy]]
 
Line 140:
 
=== Professor Phenomenus | <small>(Actor: Jack Banning)</small> ===
* [[All There in Thethe Script]]: The scripts say that his first name is "Elliott".
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Sees aliens ''everywhere'', despite a lack of evidence, and never manages to find them. Quite an accomplishment, given how hard it is to go for a walk in Angel Grove without tripping over alien activity.
* [[The Cuckoolander Was Right]]: He's consistently too late by about an episode or so in terms of locating alien activity, but it ''was'' there.
Line 153:
* [[Prop Recycling]] - Probably because the [[Power Rangers Turbo|Maligore costume]] was too expensive to only be used once.
** Lampshaded by Divatox in the first episode, no less. (Doubles as a [[Call Back]] to [[Power Rangers Turbo|Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie]].)
{{quote| '''Divatox:''' You remind me so much of my fiancée!}}
* [[The Man Behind the Man|The Man Behind The Villains]] for Astronema, Rita, Zedd, Mondo, and Divatox.
* [[No Kill Like Overkill]]: {{spoiler|Takes ''two'' Planet Killer missiles, one [[Boom! Headshot!|hitting him directly in the head]], to kill him. And even then, he manages to [[Taking You Withwith Me|take down his killer with him.]]}}
* [[Taking You Withwith Me]]: {{spoiler|After being mortally wounded by Darkonda, he manages to survive just long enough to swallow Darkonda whole.}}
* [[The Unfought]]: Is never fought by the heroes, despite being the Big Bad. {{spoiler|Instead, it's Darkonda that takes him out.}}
 
Line 165:
* [[Brainwashed and Crazy]]
* [[The Chessmaster]]: Her plans to eliminate Dark Spectre are quite well thought out.
* [[Colour Color-Coded for Your Convenience]]: Black, red and silver.
* [[Creepy Monotone]]: Once brainwashed and fitted with cybernetics.
* [[Dark Magical Girl]]: Looks like a [[Dark Action Girl]] at first, but...
* [[Dating Catwoman]]: With Zhane in "A Date with Danger".
* {{spoiler|[[Disney Death]]}}: In the finale.
* [[The Dragon]]: To Dark Specter, but she's really...
** [[Dragon -in -Chief]]
* [[Evil Redhead]]: Later on.
* [[Expository Hairstyle Change]]: Several times, to the point where one of the Rangers remarked "I liked you better as a blonde."
* [[Gone Horribly Right]]: {{spoiler|After her [[Heel Face Turn]], Dark Specter succeeds in kidnapping her and brainwashes her to be a completely evil being. Completely evil also seems to mean ambitious to the point of planning to destroy Dark Specter.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Heel Face Turn]]}}: {{spoiler|This happens when she finds out Andros is her brother. She then gets captured by Dark Spectre and made evil again via brainwashing. The finale is not an example of this because the brainwashing was removed}}
* [[Hell -Bent for Leather]]
* [[Large Ham]]: Jeminy Christmas...
* [[Memento MacGuffin]]: Her locket.
Line 182:
* [[Only One Name]]
* [[The Starscream]]: She has an ulterior motive for using the Psycho Rangers.
* [[Walking Spoiler]]: Suffice to say she's different than most [[Big Bad]]s in the franchise.
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]] And purple, and blonde, and black, and brown, and red...
 
=== Ecliptor | <small>(Voice actor: [[Lex Lang]])</small> ===
* [[Anti -Villain]]
* [[Badass]]
** [[Badass Cape]]: At first.
Line 195 ⟶ 196:
* [[Light Is Not Good]]: Most of his powers seem to be based around holo-projection and concentrated light blasts.
* [[Noble Demon]]
* [[No -Holds -Barred Beatdown]]: Whenever Andros is part of the equation.
* [[Papa Wolf]]: raised Astronema from age five and he seems to be the only one she always seems to care about.
* [[Power Echoes]]
* [[Tron Lines]]
 
=== Darkonda | <small>(Voice actor: Steve Kramer)</small> ===
* [[Ascended Extra]]: His [[Denji Sentai Megaranger|Sentai counterpart]] Guirail dies with the arrival of the [[Mid -Season Upgrade|Mega Voyager]]. Darkonda, however, lasts for the remainder of the series, thanks to him having [[Cats Have Nine Lives|nine lives like a cat]].
* [[Card -Carrying Villain]]: While almost all PR villains fall into this trope, he takes it a step further by taking great pride in being a villain.
{{quote| '''Andros:''' YOU KIDNAPPED MY SISTER!<br />
'''Darkonda:''' One of my finest accomplishments. }}
* [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder]]: And loving it
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]: {{spoiler|Destroys Dark Specter, the lord of all evil, who is also the size of a planet.}}
* [[Fusion Dance]]: With Ecliptor as '''''Darkliptor''''' in "T.J.'s Identity Crisis" and "Astronema Thinks Twice".
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]
* [[Nice Job Fixing It, Villain]]: His [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder]] is ''the only reason Evil does not rule the universe''.
* [[The Starscream]]
 
== [[Psycho Rangers]] ==
* [[Ax Crazy]]: All five of them, but Psycho Blue not only fights with an actual axe, he nearly kills T.J. in cold blood doing it.
* [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]]: They ran their ''souls'' through Astronema's people-into-data machine, reconstituting their bodies.
* [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder]]: Psycho Yellow. Not only does she team up with Psycho Pink to drain the Rangers of their power first (and get all the credit from Astronema), she then callously abandons Pink when things go all pear-shaped, resulting in Pink's death.
* [[Crippling Overspecialization]]: The Rangers realize that the Psychos only absorbed fighting styles from their counterparts, so an [[Opponent Switch]] gives them a huge advantage... [[Hope Spot|at]] [[Subverted Trope|first]].
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: When they brag about how much better they are than the Rangers, it's true, especially in the early appearances.
** Psycho Red has it the worst, though.
* [[Five -Bad Band]]:
** [[The Big Bad]]: Red
** [[The Dragon]]: Black
Line 227 ⟶ 228:
* [[Ghostly Chill]]: When the ghost of Psycho Pink passes through her, Cassie suddenly feels very cold.
* [[Gone Horribly Right]]: Astronema wanted to create monsters that would hunt down and destroy the Power Rangers. Unfortunately for her [[Evil Plan]], nothing can ''stop'' them from trying to do it.
* [[Green -Eyed Monster]]: Psycho Pink, mostly because Psycho Yellow keeps trying to screw her over.
* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: Zhane has been abducted, but the others can't save him without morphing and alerting the Psychos to their location. So they plant a recording device in their vehicle and send it off on auto-pilot. When the Rangers break through the shield surrounding Zhane's location, the Psychos [[Flash Step]] in front of them, and Red says something to the effect of "Did you think that would fool us?" Of course, they really ''did'' fall for it.
* [[Mind Rape]]: The Psychos learn everything about the Rangers' fighting styles in this way.
* [[Not So Harmless]]: Not that any of them were actually ''harmless'', per se, but Psycho Pink was killed off pretty early in their debut story arc (mostly because Psycho Yellow stabbed her in the back). When the Psychos returned for the Galaxy Rangers teamup, {{spoiler|not only did she SURVIVE their team attack, but was able to procure an energy-sucking sword that ended up killing the Pink Galaxy Ranger.}} [[Disney Death|Until the end of the season, at least.]]
* [[One -Winged Angel]]: They don't have mecha, so they turn into giant monsters instead.
* [[The Only One Allowed to Defeat You]]: So much that they ''lurked around as ghosts'' so that they could fight the Rangers again.
