When you find yourself trying to remember a show (or any works) that's on the tip of your tongue but just out of reach, come here - the collective brain of the TVTropes community can probably help.

The Jetski thing suggests that it was a Lost Galaxy game (they had the Jet Jammers)
The best character is always the one-shot disguise.
^ It's entirely possible that the game was based on Lost Galaxy, but google searching for "power rangers 'lost galaxy' 'computer game'" and variants thereof hasn't helped me find the game I'm looking for. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
Phantom, Lost Galaxy never had a proper video game.
Leporidae, I believe you're looking for a Flash game called Power Rangers in Space: Red Ranger to the Rescue.
Download it here: https://mega.nz/#!IRUkzSwY!BBst_Zwmi-ovaTp3hyrZkAQqlxy35P6yvKsS3vBx4E4
Found it listed here: http://www.powerrangerplanet.org/secretarea.html
^ Digifiend, thank you for the link, but "Power Rangers in Space: Red Ranger to the Rescue" is not the game I'm looking for (though it was fun to play just now!). In the game you linked, the Red Ranger is standing on a surf board/ hover board instead of seated on a flying jet ski (jet jammer?), and he's getting shot at instead of shooting at enemies.
There are two Lost Galaxy games on that site:
Terra Venture Rescue: https://mega.nz/#!JNMixDwL!pAWVMTK6UPt1dVNhbCP2JWFGUYN3C3IKiKVn79nenPE
And Evil Planet: https://mega.nz/#!oRdkHZgA!eRNRsuMubqy4-i9p8GSjbiVhJZElhydJ3jDKyILOWtw
If it's definitely Lost Galaxy, it must be one of those two.

^ "Evil Planet" is not the game I am looking for. And unfortunately, "Terra Venture Rescue" won't load beyond the intro screen and a bit of flavor text from the villains. I've checked the rest of the games listed in the link from your first comment and none of them seem to be the game I remember. That being said, thank you for linking me to the list.
Go Go Ranger Super Bump!
I think there was something like that in the CD rom of Power Rangers Time Force
Never let it be said that I would not use twenty words when only a few words would be necessary
^ Yes! That is the game I remember! Thank you bomberman121890.
Alright, this might be a little vague, but I'm looking for the name of a side-scroller game for PC featuring the Power Rangers. It would have been made/ released between 1998 and 2005. Probably.
The game mechanics are pretty simple: you navigate a Power Ranger riding on a flying jetski (a jetjammer?) up/ down to avoid obstacles, while shooting at the enemies who are flying in from the right side of the screen. I think the enemies had grey, humanoid bodies (perhaps putties from Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers?). The blaster had only one sound effect and I can remember it clear as day: two mechanical clicks followed by two muted explosions, like "chick-chick pew, pew." (My siblings, who remember the game about as well as I do, used to joke that it sounded like a robot saying "kitty-bow-bow," with stress on the "KIT" part of "kitty.") I think the scrolling background was of pixelated brick walls, fire escapes, and other generic urban scenery.
The game was very cheaply made/ cheap looking, and I think it might have been the sort of game you get as a CD that comes in a box of cereal. Any help figuring out what this game was called would be appreciated!
