* While this isn't always the case, most seasons also give the villains a motif, be it one shared with the heroes or a unique one of their own.

* VillainDecay can happen when Villains become too scary for children and the producers push for a more kid friendly villain. Additionally if a villain isn't allowed to win from time to time they lose their threat. As such many a good villain will be able to grasp victory from defeat or plan a XanatosGambit. In ''Go-Busters'', Enter's robots would be destroyed by the Go-Busters every time so he would use attacks as distractions in order to complete other objectives, such as stealing data and zord materials.

'''Props Department:''' You'll usually be able to make your own additions to the arsenal used in Sentai. A SuperMode for the Red Ranger (complete with its own TransformationTrinket) is a popular choice, as is a CoolBike or some other vehicle. A CanonImmigrant SixthRanger is possible, but you'll have to work around the fact that he wasn't present in the original StockFootage. A new mecha is probably ill-advised; besides the same StockFootage issues an original SixthRanger would face, you likely won't have access to a miniature set to film mecha battles on. That being said, you are more than welcome to link an original SixthRanger to an already existing mecha if you are willing to reshoot the cockpit footage.

Consider how useful the collectible is as a way to determine how many times it should show up - a collectible that can allow the user to swim rapidly probably isn't gonna have much use if you're writing a series that takes place mostly on dry land, in the air, or in space, whereas a collectible that allows the user to generate a shield should appear multiple times. Same goes for the mecha - if you're going to include mecha, be sure to use the mechs you introduce a lot (for an example of how this can go wrong, look at ''Series/ChikyuuSentaiFiveman'').
