* In the "Dark Wish" 3-parter, Imperious captures Jenji and wishes that the Mystic Force Rangers never got their powers. The result is that history is rewritten: the villains, led by Imperious, conquered the world on the day that the rangers were supposed to get their powers (four months ago), and nobody remembers the pre-wish world besides the five rangers, Jenji, and most of the villains including Imperious. However, logically speaking, if the rangers never got their powers, Imperious and Jenji would still be trapped in the cave that only the rangers could open. Additionally, Morticon is absent from the post-wish world and would be alive if there were no rangers to kill him. Probably, it's a case where the magic leaves the wisher unaffected - a lot like the time traveler's Grandfather Paradox, of going back in time and causing the death of an ancestor before they've had children, preventing the existence of the time traveler, meaning they never could go back in time and killing their ancestor and so on, it's likely that magic prevents the wisher from being made unable to have made the wish. Hey, paradox-free magic!

** We're told that her mother and Udonna are sisters, but there's no mention of who her father is. It's obviously not Daggeron, as that's an important enough detail to have been mentioned after Daggeron is introduced, but AFAIK, who her father is is never mentioned. We can presume that he is killed in the same attacks that kill the majority of Udonna's first team and sister and where Leonbow is temporarily trapped with the Master and the others.
** It's also not Calindor; that's a detail that he would have mentioned at some point, even to use as a shock factor moment. Failing that, Udonna would have said something, or Clare.

** While we can assume that surnames work the same in the magical realm as they do in most of the world, Clare's likely bearing her unnamed father's surname. It's rather odd that she gets a surname (granted, AllThereInTheManual instead of mentioned in the show like everyone else's is) when her mother, aunt, uncle, and Daggeron do not.
