1* Alex capturing Ransik in the season premiere becomes this when you realize he is the ''only'' Ranger to actually beat Ransik.
2* What Mr. Collins says to [[BigBad Ransik]] when he discovered that the medicine his factory started to produce was the only thing that would let Ransik avoid dying from his terminal disease.
3--> "If I'd known that that serum could help you I would've poured it down the drain myself!"
4** Just the fact that Mr. Collins, an unarmed civilian stands up to, gets in the way of, and talks back to the season's BigBad cements his awesomeness. Sure, it's a CurbStompBattle when Ransik stops talking, but DAMN.
5** It's quick, but Collins fiercely saying that he's always been proud of Wes for forging his own path is an awesome indicator of how far the character has come.
6** Before that, Rasnik himself marching through the lab, knocking aside guards with ease, totally unstoppable...and this is ''before'' he gets the serum.
7* When Lucas's rival Dash drives a car at him and only brakes about a foot away from Lucas, the blue ranger doesn't even flinch.
8* RedShirtArmy or not, the Silver Guardians generally do surprisingly well in combat against ordinary {{Mook}}s.
9* Though not quite as awesome as a victory would've been, there's Jen facing Steelix alone and morpherless, despite having been beaten as bloody as [[ExecutiveMeddling Saturday morning TV allows]] when she ''had'' her gear. Steelix [[{{Brainwashed}} turns her bad]] and sics her on Wes... whom she proceeds to beat the ''crap'' out of.
10* Eric saluting the Time Ship after the other Rangers board and prepare to leave. From a guy who had been an AloofAlly ''at best'' during the series, and was always acting like he had to prove he was somehow better than the Rangers, it was an understated, yet powerful, show of respect. When they come back to help the Wild Force Rangers, Eric salutes them again, smiling this time.
11* The simple fact that the Pink Ranger, in most series the least capable of the group, was TheLeader, TheDeterminator, and manages to be the ultimate badass of this series when she alone is left to fight Ransik in the end, and manages to hold her own ''UNMORPHED'' against the guy who managed to (almost)[[note]]The series is ambiguous as to weather Alex barely survived the attack or if he died and was brought back to life due to changes in the timeline[[/note]] kill a morphed Red Ranger in the premiere.
12* Eric's first time using his Mega Battle mode. While some fans may mock the roller blades, they can't claim Eric taking down the giant-sized Conwing singlehandedly wasn't awesome.
13** Eric becoming the Quantum Ranger for the first time also counts.
14* Pretty much any time the Quantasaurus Rex does anything could qualify for one of these, but special mention has to be made for the battle against Dragontron. Though Dragontron would ultimately win the first bout, it managed to weather everything the rangers threw at it, only for the Q-rex to latch onto the mecha's arm and bite it off. It's not every day that a zord manages to ''dismember'' a monster of the week!
15* The episode where Trip meets and befriends Notacon. Eric has him and the mutant cornered with the other Rangers watching on as Eric ignores Trip's pleas for mercy, saying that because Notacon is a mutant and not human he deserves none of it. Trip's response? Removes his hat which hides his forehead crystal, outs himself as alien, and blatantly tells Eric that he's not human either and Eric will have to kill both of them then. It works, Eric leaves. A very understated badass moment from the Green Time Ranger.
16* After spending the entire episode under Alex's crappy leadership, Lucas, Trip, and Katie call him out on it. Full transcript here,
17-->'''Alex''': "Come on! Get up and fight! Don't you care if the future is depending on you?"
18-->'''Lucas''': "I've had enough." (''goes up to confront Alex'')
19-->'''Alex''': "What are you doing?"
20-->'''Lucas''': (''looks to almost punch Alex out'') "Your the one that doesn't care about the future!"
21-->'''Trip''': "If you did, you wouldn't have taken Wes' morpher."
22-->'''Alex''': "The team is strongest this way."
23-->'''Katie''': "No! We're strongest with Wes! If you were a real leader you'd see that!"
24** Later, when Wes comes to help, it's Jen who convinces Alex to hand back Wes the Chrono Morpher, coming full circle how she was more reluctant to give Wes the morpher earlier this season.
25* A monster of the day gets a particularly good BadassBoast in "The Quantum Quest." (Granted, Eric comes along in a few moments to completely kick his ass, but still.)
26-->'''Lucas:''' No one's too strong for the Power Rangers!
27-->'''Brickneck:''' Then allow me to introduce myself. I'm "no one," and I'm too strong for the Power Rangers.
28* The Time Target finisher used by the Shadow Force Megazord Mode Blue -- using the Saber, the numerals of a giant holo-clock are blasted and freeze a monster in place. Then, the clock face gets absorbed into the tip of the saber blaster and turns into a ball of energy, which it then fires right at the mutant. Extra points for Mode Blue's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgdq9kahDk8 debut battle]], where some absolutely kickass music played during the finisher.
29* Wes has sent the future rangers home to protect them from historic doom, and rescued Eric. Irritated that Eric never gave him even a chance for friendship, Eric grouches that he worked his way up from the bottom to be his own man, unlike Wes who came from a background of privilege. That they could never be friends, because they have NOTHING in common. This is Wes's reply..
30-->'''Wes''': No. [[{{Foil}} We may have grown up differently, but we have a lot in common]]. [[ScrewDestiny We both fought to change our destinies, and we both succeeded]]. (Holds their morphers side by side) Look at this! We are Power Rangers Eric! And friends or not, we're the only hope this city has right now.
31* When Ransik finally attacks the Clocktower, Wes and Eric are the only ones left, and realize they have to evacuate. So, they set a future gun on overload, ride the bell rope up to the window, and as the room explodes, they morph into safety. An awesome use of creativity and daring to escape certain doom.
32* Ransik's demolishing of the Rangers in the finale is particularly badass, considering that they were throwing everything they had at him and he was going at them all by himself; he even managed to basically NoSell Wes' [[SuperMode Battle Fire]]!. He probably would have pulled off a last-minute win, too, if not for a last-minute HeelFaceTurn.
33** Probably? The main five Rangers had just been demorphed in one hit each. Eric was so badly injured he gave his morpher to Wes. If it weren't for his HeelFaceTurn, Ransik would have killed the Rangers easily.
34*** To this day, Ransik is one of the few {{Big Bad}}s the Rangers ''never actually beat in straight combat.'' The only other one? ''[[Series/PowerRangersNinjaStorm Lothor]]''. ([[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass As bumbling as he was, the Ninja Storm team never defeated ''him'' in a straight fight either.]])
35** One of the best parts ''is'' his HeelFaceTurn where he quietly turns to Jen and says "I'm ready to pay for what I've done." How many Power Rangers [[BigBad Big Bads]] take full responsibility for their misdeeds? And then he comes back next season and kicks ass alongside the Rangers!
36* Credit has to be given to Jen in the finale. After Ransik causes the entire team to demorph, she's the only one on her feet and boldly declares her resolve to capture Ransik. Nailing him with her Chrono Blaster was also cool.
37* Though it happened in ''Wild Force'', the best SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome by a Time Force character - or at least in the top five - is Jen's re-entry in the ReunionShow. Unstoppable villains are pummeling Wes, Eric, and the Wild Force Rangers, and in comes Jen with her new BFG and black leather outfit. And later her and Alyssa back to back with Chrono Blasters, with Jen going GunsAkimbo.
