* MakeMyMonsterGrow: Just like many other {{Big Bad}}s in the previous series. "Begin the download, now." This causes a growth program to be downloaded into the attack bots (while some sorta revitalizing fuel is pumped through them, [[TheArtifact which was the Sentai method of growth]]). On some occasions his generals, or even the attack bots themselves, issue the command.

* RagTagBunchOfMisfits: Take a former air pilot, a mechanic with a desire of being a hero, a former spoiled heiress, a PluckyComicRelief mobster, and a anmesiac man with cybernetic enhancements, and you get a team that's suppose to be our saviors in the last safehaven on Earth.
* ThreePlusTwo: Initially the team started off with Scott, Flynn, and Summer as a trio. Quickly the team became five when Dillon and Ziggy joined up. And with Gem and Gemma's appearance by the halfway point, the team became seven.

* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Her plain, brown and bronze outfit is in stark contrast to the bizarre ''Go-Onger'' designs.



* {{Determinator}}: Walked 6,000-something miles from wherever he was to Venjix's palace.



* LightningBruiser: Slim. Agile. Well-armoured. Hits like a freight train. There's a reason he's Venjix's most feared general.

* TheArtifact: Why would weird machines based on appliances and junk, and not [[DigitalAbomination digital abominations]], be the antagonists in a post-apocalyptic series about a computer virus that has infected the world? Because those designs are taken from a Super Sentai show which is about environmentalism and pollution.

* {{No Nonsense Nemesis}}: Venjix is the only ''PR'' villain who's managed to TakeOverTheWorld, mostly thanks to [[ApocalypseHow killing off almost all of humanity and turning most of the world into a barren wasteland]]. Thus, he has no compunctions about eliminating the Rangers, no humor (humor is limited strictly to his underlings), and was only following [[MonsterOfTheWeek the usual]] [[MakeMyMonsterGrow playbook]] to disguise his ''real'' plan ([[spoiler: infiltrating Corinth with [[ManchurianAgent tons of sleeper agents]]]]).

** Notably, when he was left in charge and created the Balloon Bot, he ''immediately'' begins the growth download before the attack bot made it into Corinth. Makes you wonder how more effective Venjix could've been had he followed Crunch's advice more often.

* WeaponizedExhaust: His solution for clearing his suit's energy channels (to both allow him to morph and fix the Time Stop ability) in "Ranger Blue" is to insert the Engine Cell backwards, allowing all that excess energy to be channeled into the "run-off explosion" (as Ziggy puts it) and ramp it up...which he puts to good use by putting the bad guys behind him as he morphs.
