318-ChZ1.
- After years of failed attempts, Finster finally deciphered the Scrolls of
Zordnia, which showed the location of the dormant Shogunzords.
- Zedd didn't seem
familiar with the Scrolls of Zordnia or the Shogunzords.
- Finster called the
Shogunzords "the dormant Zords."
- Finster said that with
the technology of a Ninjazord and a power
source, he would be able to bring the Shogunzords to life.
- Finster, Squatt, and Baboo looked
for the Shogunzords in a dense jungle.
- Squatt discovered the
vine-covered rocky foot of a Shogunzord by leaning on it.
- For his and Rita's plan to
steal a Ninjazord to access the
Shogunzords, Zedd said they needed a Power Coin to get into the Ninjazord; a coin
would allow them to steal a Ninjazord to
copy its technology.
- Having obtained the pink Power Coin, Zedd
said they could steal the Falconzord, which
would render the Rangers defenseless.
- The weakened Ninjor,
after being shrunk to normal size after being pummeled by giant Goldar, glowed blue, turned translucent, and then
vanished, with Zedd planning to use him as
the power source needed to operate the Shogunzords.
- Having obtained Ninjor
and the Falconzord, Zedd declared that they had everything they
needed to bring the Shogunzords to life: "the battle technology from the
almighty Falconzord and Ninjor's energy as its power source."
- Zedd gave the jug in
which Ninjor was trapped, to Finster to have him siphon off Ninjor's energy so they could power up the
Shogunzords.
- After Zedd had stolen
the pink Power Coin, the Falconzord, and Ninjor, Zordon feared
that Zedd had discovered the lost Shogunzords
and intended to use them.
- Zedd said everything
was going as planned: he had Kimberly's Power Coin, and Finster was working on a way to siphon off Ninjor's power, combine it with the Falconzord's technology, and bring the
Shogunzords to life; then, he said, all he needed was six pilots to
command the Zords.
? Zedd said he needed six pilots; if he indeed
wanted a pilot for the Falconzord as well
as the five Shogunzords, his plans for Kimberly would have made this quite difficult;
perhaps there were plans to use a replacement (such as Kat) as the sixth pilot.
- After Kim had been
kidnapped, Alpha's scanners indicated that Zedd had initiated the power infusion to the
Shogunzords.
320-ChZ3.
- When asked by Adam if
there was any way to gain control of the Shogunzords once they were in
the cockpits, Billy said he might be able to
reprogram the Zords off their Power Coins,
which would transfer control to the Rangers.
- Rita used a red beam from
her wand to make the Shogunzords appear on
Earth.
- The five Shogunzords were humanoid warrior
versions of the Ninjazords: each bore the
color, symbol, and animal face of its
respective Ninjazord, with the exception of
the White Shogunzord, which bore the face and symbol of the Crane.
- Rita told the Rangers that the Shogunzords were powered by Ninjor and armed with battle technology by their
caged Falconzord.
- The Shogunzord cockpits were identical to their
respective Ninjazord cockpits, with a
falcon symbol in the White Shogunzord's.
- In the Blue Shogunzord cockpit, Billy used a small silver rod to make adjustments
to his Shogunzord's circuits; he was making adjustments to the quantum
linear controller, apparently only in the Blue Shogunzord cockpit; once
he was finished, the Shogunzords' chest symbols shimmered with white
light, and the Zords posed individually.
- Zedd said the Zords
had been released from his power source (Ninjor).
- Each Shogunzord could wield a unique weapon:
Black's was an archer's bow, Blue's was a lance, Red's was a shield,
White's were a pair of tuning fork-like weapons, and Yellow's was a rake
weapon.
- On the Shogunzords' belts were the same lettered
symbols as on the Ninjazords; the circular
S of the Ape was also on Red's shield weapon.
- Before they formed the Shogun Megazord, the five Shogunzords
would bring their hands together for a hand gesture that the Aquitian Rangers would be shown doing at times when
posing for battle.
- The Red Shogunzord was the torso and upper legs
of the Shogun Megazord; Blue was the
right arm, White was the left arm, Yellow was the right leg, and Black
was the right leg.
- Zordon said that as long
as Zedd held the Falconzord captive, the Ninjazords would be inoperative, but the
Shogunzords still functioned.
- Zordon told Kim that she and Tommy
would share the White Shogunzord.
321-FCab.
- The five Rangers were
shown leaping up to their respective Shogunzords.
- Tommy had the Shogunzords
assume a tower formation (which he called Shogun Megazord), with Yellow, Red, and
Black on bottom and Blue and White on top; the tower then spun around,
generating a golden energy whirlwind which destroyed giant Crabby Cabbie and sent his
essence into the sky to explode.
323-DSP2.
- The Shogunzords, having been miniaturized and
trapped in giant Garbage
Mouth's garbage can, did their shogun hand gestures and exploded out
of the can, then were back to normal.
324-DSP3.
- Zordon told Kat that some day, power willing, she would control
the pink Cranezord with grace and intelligence,
but for now (until the Falconzord was
recovered and the Ninjazords were again
operational) she would pilot the White Shogunzord alongside Tommy.
326-Pita.
- In the White Shogunzord cockpit, Kat stood behind Tommy's
right side.
- After the Rangers had
leapt up to their Shogunzords, the Zords were shown teleporting onto a cliff with small Ranger-colored streaks.
- The Shogun
Megazord's cockpit was in its head, a part of the Red Shogunzord;
the spaciousness of the cockpit would have occupied all of the space
inside the Red Shogunzord's head.
327-ABIW.
- After roughing giant Brick Bully up a bit, the Blue
Shogunzord pulled out its lance and impaled the monster (who was in a
reclined position) with the blunt end of its lance, making the monster
explode into pieces.
328-Chmp.
- At one point during the fight with giant Sinister Simian, the White
Shogunzord stood in the center of the Shogunzords as they posed; at all
other times, however, the Red Shogunzord would be the Zord to assume the
center position.
- The Blue Shogunzord shot Billy's antidote missile out of the
middle finger of its right hand.
329-MVA1.
- Billy used a small Falconzord-shaped device hooked up to the Command Center's computers to imitate the
Falconzord's energy readings to allow the
Rangers to operate both the Shogunzords and Ninjazords simultaneously; Rocky told him it was good work, but Billy admitted it was no substitute for the real Falconzord's power.
- The four Rangers formed
the Shogun Megazord without any pilot
in the White Shogunzord.
- As giant Globbor was remotely draining the
Shogun Megazord's power, the Ranger-colored energy from the White
Shogunzord was solely white, with no pink.
- Giant Globbor remotely drained most of
the Shogun Megazord's power.
330-MVA2.
- Unable to move the powerless Shogun Megazord, the four Rangers were forced to switch to the Ninja Megazord.
- Soon after giant Globbor had taken on the power of
Ninjor, the Shogun
Megazord's power was back up, and the Rangers
controlled it by remote from the Ninja
Megazord.
- As the Shogun
Megazord performed its Fire
Saber finishing move this time, there was a temple behind it which
looked very much like the Shogun
Megazord without a head or legs; it may have been the Temple of Power.
- When the Rangers stopped
defending themselves so that they wouldn't hurt Ninjor, giant Ninjor-Globbor pummeled the Zords until they fell over; Billy was pessimistic about their functioning again
after taking such a beating.
? Master Vile planned to send the Zords off to a distant galaxy; he told giant
Ninjor-Globbor first to suck out every
last bit of their power, but then the Zords were teleported away with green energy
just as Globbor leapt for them;
Globbor was confused, but Vile didn't act surprised, so it was most
likely his doing.
331-MVA3.
- With Adam and Aisha's help, Billy
modified the tracking system in the Command
Center to locate the Zords; the Shogun Megazord, Ninja Megazord, and Falconzord were on a defeated planet in the M51 galaxy,
where the extremely corrosive atmosphere had covered the Zords with rust.
- When Master Vile
decided it was time to activate the Zeo
Crystal and destroy the world, he released
blue and yellow energy snakes from both hands, after which red eyebeams
from the Ninja Megazord, Falconzord, and Shogun Megazord combined into a single red
beam which shot to Earth and decimated entire
buildings; at the time, the Zeo Crystal was
in a central podium in the Shogun
Megazord's engine room.
- The Rangers used the
energy of their Power Coins, combined with
the Morphing Grid's energy that was being
drawn by the Shogun Megazord's panels,
to break Master Vile's connection with the
Zeo Crystal; in the process, they also
regained control and full power to the Zords.
- On the M51 planet, the Ninja Megazord, Falconzord, and Shogun Megazord's eyes glowed red again,
but this time they teleported back to Earth in the same green energy with which Master Vile had originally teleported them to the planet.
- Upon tapping the Ninjazords' and Shogunzords' energy, giant Globbor wore the symbols of Ninjor and four of the Zords (with no Ape or
Falcon symbols), and he had four Aquitian Ranger helmets for heads: yellow in front,
white on his right, black in back, and blue on his left; he was still
wielding a sword, but not Ninjor's; Globbor then told the six Rangers he now had the same power as they did.
- Giant Ranger-Globbor leapt through the air and
was suddenly in front of the Ninja
Megazord, as though he had performed the Ninja Rangers' slide-teleport without the
blur effect.
- Told to use his "weapons" by Master Vile, giant Ranger-Globbor wielded a small
wrist-mounted crossbow bearing the J pentagon of the Black Ranger's Zords; it fired what looked like three pink
energy darts; at this point, Tommy exclaimed
that Globbor was using their
own powers against them.
335-ARA2.
- As the Battle Borgs
were shown in the Viewing Globe, Cestro said that their Battle Borgs possessed similar technologies
to the Earth Rangers' own piloted Zords, but with telepathic control; he said
the Battle Borgs would be at the Aquitian Rangers' disposal at a moment's notice.
- The Battle Borgs
were streamlined versions of the Shogunzords, with the same colors,
shapes, animals, and general designs.
- Zordon told the Aquitian Rangers that they would have
control of the Earth Rangers' Shogunzords in
cases of emergency.
- In the Aquitian
Rangers' presence, young Billy referred to
the Shogunzords as belonging to them, the Earth
Rangers.
- As the Aquitians
stood side-by-side with arms held up and holding hands with their eyes
closed, there was a holographic display in front of them in the Command Center, displaying images of the Shogunzords and Shogun Megazord, accompanied by rapidly
scrolling text (see 335-ARA2 entry on "Billy" page for a transcript of the humorous text).
- After young Tommy had
radioed the Aquitian Rangers to tell Delphine it was time for Shogun Megazord power, the Shogunzords
appeared from Ranger-colored streaks of
light, then the four streaked into Red, instantly forming the Shogun Megazord approximately four seconds
after being summoned.
- The Shogun
Megazord could assemble and fight without the Aquitian Rangers being in the cockpits.
336-CEvF.
- The same day that the Power Coins had been destroyed, the Aquitian Rangers used solely their Battle Borgs, without the help of the
Shogunzords.
337-ATrp.
- Before summoning the Shogun Megazord (the first time the
Shogunzords were used after the destruction of the Power Coins), the Aquitian
Rangers combined their energy and then had the Battle Borgs energize.
- The Shogunzords again performed for the Aquitian Rangers their four-second Shogun Megazord assembly.
339-WYTh.
- When the Aquitian Rangers
summoned the Shogunzords after discovering that Zedd's shield had blocked their transmission to
call in the Battle Borgs, the Shogunzords
came running rather than performing the four-second Shogun Megazord assembly that they usually
did for the Aquitian Rangers.
- When morphed Aurico called out to power up the
Red Shogunzord, dark clouds appeared in the sky overhead, and flames
rose up around him, lifting him up and forming the Red Shogunzord; he
then sank back and merged into the Shogunzord's chest, then the sky
lightened and the Red Shogunzord posed.
- When morphed Cestro called out to power up the
Blue Shogunzord, the sky turned into an image of crashing waves, and
blue energy rose up around him, lifting him up and forming the Blue
Shogunzord; he then sank back and merged into the Shogunzord's chest,
then the sky returned and the Blue Shogunzord posed.
- When morphed Corcus called out to power up the
Black Shogunzord, the sky turned into an image of rocks flying upward,
and black energy rose up around him, lifting him up and forming the
Black Shogunzord; he then sank back and merged into the Shogunzord's
chest, then the sky returned and the Black Shogunzord posed.
- When morphed Tideus called out to power up the
Yellow Shogunzord, the sky turned into an image of what looked like
leaves blowing in the wind, and yellow energy rose up around him,
lifting him up and forming the Yellow Shogunzord; he then sank back and
merged into the Shogunzord's chest, then the sky returned and the Yellow
Shogunzord posed.
- When morphed Delphine called out to power up
the White Shogunzord, the aurora borealis and the sun appeared in the
sky, and white energy rose up around her, lifting her up and forming the
White Shogunzord; she then sank back and merged into the Shogunzord's
chest, then the sky returned to normal and the White Shogunzord posed.
- Only in this instance, when the Aquitian Rangers summoned the Shogunzords after the
Battle Borgs had been blocked by Zedd's shield, did the Aquitian Rangers ride in (or merge with) the
Shogunzords.
343-HdA2.
- After summoning the Shogun Megazord while holding their hands
in the shogun pose, the Aquitian Rangers were
shown briefly in profile, and after a quick transition of Ranger-colored streaks, the Shogunzords
were then shown briefly in profile; then followed the nearly
instantaneous Shogun Megazord energy
streak assembly frequently used by the Aquitian
Rangers; the Rangers remained where they
were, without entering or merging with the Shogunzords.
