- I can kind of get why they aren't going into Uchu Sentai Kyuranger right away (since if that was what they wanted to do, Saban would've stuck with Bandai)note at the time this entry on this page was made, it hasn't been confirmed if the adaptation of Kyuranger has just been pushed back until after this series, or if Kyuranger isn't being adapted period , but weren't the monster suits from Gobusters not made to last?
- They could just use more of the Sentai footage for fight scenes, and if they need monsters to fight in original footage they could bring in monsters from a more recent series that they haven't adapted. Or even just reuse suits they already have used, which isn't entirely unknown for this show.
- For Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, they remade the Mook suits. It's entirely likely Toei will extend the same courtesy to partners they've had a longer relationship with.
- Most recent suits are made to last much longer than back in the day.
- It was eventually confirmed that the suits were remade for the series.
- When it comes to MOTW suits, well, some will stand up longer than the others. The plots that require a lot of US footage will be used with those and not the ones that fell apart.
- In what universe is there a rule against rangers dating? There have been plenty of ranger couples throughout the franchise's run, and you expect us to believe this obviously forced plot point made just to explain why Roxy is not the yellow ranger?
- Grid Battleforce is a government-run organization, so it shouldn't be surprising that they have these sorts of regulations. Look at today's real life military, for example.
- Besides, the real reason why Roxy isn't the Yellow Ranger is because Evox hijacked her mind.
- Their relationship would help to explain their more frequent encounters in future fight scenes as per Go-Busters' original footage.
- Ravi and Roxy were meant to have their DNA fused with the DNA of animals. If their relationship fully develops, they would have offspring with animal DNA. Who knows how that would end.
- You gave me an image I don't want in my head, thanks.
- How did Betty and Ben NOT recognize the mayor? Even if they had never seen his face on the news before, his visitor's badge clearly said "Mayor" on it.
- Clearly they ain't the sharpest tools in the shed.
- They are obviously meant to be this season's Bulk and Skull.
- When the chosen Rangers are about to be transformed for the first time, they are already wearing morphers, suggesting that the devices are an integral part of the process. But Devon and Zoey don't have morphers when they are hastily transformed by Nate, with morphers appearing with their Ranger suits. If the morphers can be formed alongside the suits, then why did the original candidates have to wear them beforehand?
- One plausible explanation: The morphers were facsimiles created by the morphing chamber (meaning they may have disappeared with the rest of the suit when Devon and Zoey de-morphed).
- Mayor Daniels' claim that every single villain starting from Rita attacked Earth for the Rangers' power source makes no sense as the number of times this has happened can be counted on one hand. Sure, Sledge and Galvanax wanted the Energems and Ninja Stars but this was only a thing for the previous two seasons.
- I think he was speaking broadly, villains going after the Ranger's power source happens more often than you think. Master Vile went after the Zeo Crystal, the Lights of Orion and even the Quasar Sabers were highly sought after, the Demons tried, and for a time, succeeded in using the Titanium Morpher for themselves, Lothor used the Samurai Amulet to steal the other Ranger's powers, the Dino Gems were a vital part of Mesogog's endgame, Venjix and the RPM Rangers were constantly vying for technological supremacy, often times using each other's tech to do so and eventually Venjix turned their own morphing tech against them. The only difference for Sledge and Galvanax was that obtaining the Ranger's power was their primary goal rather than being a one-off scheme like the other aforementioned villains.
- Adding to the above mentioned examples, Gruumm and Broodwing both sought to use SPD's own technology against them. Not to mention that Gruumm somehow managed to convince (without brainwashing) an entire team of elite SPD Rangers to join his side.
- Also, Vrak stole Orion's power, not only augmenting his own strength, but also preventing the Megaforce Rangers from assuming Legendary Mode.
- The villains of Lost Galaxy never attacked Earth until Trakeena's Revenge and they weren't after the sabers or the Lights when they did that. The demons did steal the Titanium Morpher but that was after their war with the Rangers had already began. Same applies to Lothor using the samurai Morpher, Grumm convincing the A-Squad Rangers to join him and Venjix's tech arms race with RPM. It's true that the Rangers' power source has been sought after by the villains but this mostly happens after the villains have made themselves known and the Rangers have been formed to stop them.
- Scrozzle seems too easily strong-armed into working for Evox and company while he has an army of Tronics and Gigadrones at his disposal and the ability to make monsters out of pretty much anything. Why does he fear them at all?
- Evox, being a computer virus, could presumably hack and seize control of any of Scrozzle's machines if he had to.
- Or, Scrozzle is a bit of a coward.
- A bit? He scrams the moment he sees the Rangers morph.
- How can digital avatars be turned into physical robotic Tronics like Evox threatened in Hangar Heist?
- Their data could be uploaded into Tronic bodies.
- Why bother changing Gold's animal into a mantis? Neither the suit nor the zord even resemble a praying mantis so why change it?
- Mantis is cooler?
- It's a really abstract thought, but if the zord in beetle mode has the "hooks" of its horn folded down and a head added to the tip it could vaguely resemble a mantis? The hooks become the mantis' claws and the beetle's body represents the lower half of the mantis' body.
- It's a bit of a stretch, but the hooks on the horn do sort of resemble a mantis' antennae/eyes. The tip of the horn itself also vaguely looks like a mantis' head. Again, it's a stretch, but it is plausible.
- Word of God is that rhino beetles aren’t kid-friendly (indeed, Ninja Storm’s Ranger with the same motif was never referred to as such).
- Something I noticed during The Cybergate Opens is that Commander Shaw told the Rangers that Nate can handle himself despite being captured. But yet, in Digital Deception, she was the one to enforce the buddy system on Nate after he was caught in a Robotron attack. Did she change her mind, or is it a writing error?
- She may have always personally believed Nate was capable of taking care of himself, but was under orders from General Burke (or another superior) to ensure Nate's safety.
- Where did Evox come from? This was a problem with Go-Busters as well, Messiah was a computer virus that came out of no where. Everyong reacts as if Computer Viruses were natural phenomena. Early hopes from fans was that Evox would have been Venjix from RPM who was last seen trapped in a morpher/morphin grid, but the standalone nature of each season makes this less and less likely.
- Given the rumored crossover with RPM for Season 2, as well as the fact that Evox's voice actor is a near anagram for Venjix's voice actor, there is a chance that Evox is in fact somehow connected to Venjix.
- It's explained in "Source Code" that Evox is Venjix reborn, after Venjix survived by infecting the RPM Morphers.
- Even taking into account that the mayor apparently isn't high-enough clearance to know who all the Rangers are, surely he should at least be allowed to know that Devon is one of them? Considering how much oversight he seems to put into the kid's life, why was Mayor Daniels not being kept in the loop that his son does have a job: risking his life to protect the city on a regular basis?!
- I have an additional question for this; why didn't Grid Battleforce make up a job for Devon when he became a Ranger? At least then, Daniels can believe his son was working for an organization even if he has reservations regarding Morph-X.
- Why did they decide to go back and do the Dino Crossover? The current Rangers aren’t in that fight except for one scene at the end and the Dino Thunder Rangers’ reason for being there falls into Adaptation Explanation Extrication, because Snide was created without any intended link to Dino Thunder.
- Apparently showrunner Judd Lynn is leaving soon (although he's sticking around for Dino Fury to help the transition). Since this is basically his last chance to go all out with the show, maybe it's a case of Awesome, Dear Boy?
- Finders Keepers, Making Bad and Grid Connection are all connected and 3 parters of the crossover. The first part has the Beast Morphers team having their own spotlight and a good reason for Snide to be there since the Dino Charge Rangers faced him before and also the fact that Snide is based on Neo-Geildon so there's that for Dino Thunder but more so for the Abarangers than it does for them. That and because of stock footages. Making Bad is mainly a clip show, showcasing past villains until they got Goldar Maximus. Then finally the long awaited Grid Connection.
- From there, why didn’t they do the Gokaiger crossover?
- How did Jason and Conner's zords reach the Dino Charge dimension and turn into full Megazords without the other zords? In the Sentai movie, this was obviously because there was no dimension hopping and the Zords weren't the originals, so there was some excuse to them having random abilities, but here? Nothing.
- As the original Megazord and the Thundersaurus Megazord were wrecked at the end of their respective seasons, it can be assumed that the Morphin Grid detected huge amounts of evil due to the collusion of Evox and the archenemies of the Legendary Dino Rangers, and it thus decided to revive the Megazords for the then-upcoming "Great Dino War".
- Why is Mayor Daniels seemingly the one in charge of spreading Morph-X towers throughout the world? Surely someone higher up in the government would be the one to head such a wide scale project?
- Was any thought put into the contents of Nate's 'Ranger Vault', as seen in The Evox Snare? Because it seems like they just loaded the shelves with a bunch of old props without much consideration for it making a lick of sense. You've got:
- An SPD blaster; a police-exclusive weapon from an organisation that doesn't yet exist.
- Two Mystic Morphers; actual, genuine magic wands that no one outside of the Mystic Force has any business possessing.
- Dino Charge morphers and sabers; ancient artfacts from another dimension that only appear to wielders of the ten Energems.
- Gem and Gemma's Cloud Hatchets; personal, one-of-a-kind weapons of Rangers who are also from another dimension.
- A bunch of other weapons that are only accessible when a person is morphed (sidearms from MMPR, Zeo, Dino Thunder etc.) and should no longer exist.
And even if by some miracle Nate managed to go on a time-travelling, dimension-hopping jaunt and convince all of these people to just hand over their personal equipment for research purposes...why are they gathering dust in a cupboard, instead of Nate giving them back to the original owners who might need them? There's no indication that they're fakes or replicas, either; everyone reacts like they're real.
- On the same topic: what business does Nate have travelling to the Dino Charge dimension, taking Kendall's Split Emitters for whatever bizarre reason, only to stash them in a box? Did he just show up in Kendall's lab one day and order her to turn over all of her inventions and gadgets to him because they're vaguely Power Ranger related?
- The behind the scenes reason is that it's an Excuse Plot to show of some nostalgia and tie the season into the end of RPM. On screen, there's not much to work with. Until we get a proper reason, I'm thinking that Nate asked for this technology to research it in order to create the Beast Morpher tech. The past rangers likely don't need much of this stuff anymore since they're retired. If they ever did need their stuff back, Grid Battle Force is just a trans-dimentional phonecall away. It's even possible they agreed to give Nate the tech if Nate tried to fix some of the broken stuff in return. Maybe that's why all the old ranger powers seem to be working again as of Megaforce. Maybe he was the one who built Tommy's Master Morpher?
- It's also worth noting that the majority of Ranger tech isn't exactly one of a kind. Even a lot of the morphers, while bonding to one person, can be made duplicates of. It's likely the majority of the stuff in the vault are duplicates made for his research by the various team mentors. IE, they talk to Dr. K and she just makes a couple Cloud Hatchets for them. And there's been multiple times a ranger has pulled their side arm unmorphed, so it's likely while summoned when they morph, they don't necessarily only exist while morphed. Now, that does leave why the specific morpher that Venjix was in ended up being given over, but a logical explanation is, given Dr. K's personality, she just made the Rangers up-to-date versions when she saw they needed their powers again and gave Nate the originals, which are now obsolete. It's also possible, when it comes to the teams with military backing or research teams, that's exactly what happened and they gave Nate their originals after upgrading to up-to-date versions.
- For any season besides SPD, they could've been donated by previous ranger teams to help Grid Battleforce understand the Morphing Grid. Being a government organization, I'm sure Lightspeed Rescue and/or the Silver Guardians would vouch for them. As for SPD's tech, considering how close we are to 2025 its possible that SPD's earth branch is up and running and the two shared prototype tech with each other. Who knows, maybe SPD is an offshoot of Grid Battleforce?
- In Making Bad, Scrozzle sends Thieftron to steal 1,000 diamonds to power up their reanimator machine to supercharge their revived monsters. Makes sense, but why was he sending him to steal stores in alphabetical order? At first I assumed it was just a quirk to robotron had, but Scrozzle outright says his next target was what the rangers expected them to hit, so why did he feel the need to do that?
- Why does Devon freeze when seeing dogs? Cheetahs are often assigned service dogs, so there's not a general fear of dogs in cheetahs in general and he shouldn't freeze when seeing dogs.
- Why don't Rocky and Kat show up as the Mighty Morphin Red and Pink Rangers respectively?
