Revision as of 23:36, 16 November 2018
The fictional characters of Power Rangers Megaforce include the Power Rangers, their enemies, and their friends and allies in the battle.
Megaforce Power Rangers
The Megaforce Power Rangers are the eponymous protagonists of the series. They are five teenagers with attitude chosen by Gosei to save the Earth from the Warstar. They live in the fictional city of Harwood County. In order to transform into the Megaforce Rangers, they use the Gosei Morphers by calling out "It's Morphin' Time! Go Go Megaforce!". They are constantly training to keep up with the growing strength of their enemies. They wield the Power Cards in battle, which they use to perform certain attacks and to summon their personal weapons which merge to form the Megaforce Blaster. Each Ranger carries a Mega Blaster as a side arm that they use for special attacks. While in Ultra Mode, they each bear a lightweight, waistcoat-like shield and wield an Ultra Sword powered by an Ultra Zord. They are later joined by the mechanical Robo Knight when the Toxic Mutants emerge to pollute the Earth and by the human-like alien Orion during the second season Power Rangers Super Megaforce. Also, Gosei gives them the Legendary Morphers, which they use to access the more powerful Super Mega Mode and Legendary Ranger Mode to morph into any of the previous 19 teams of Power Rangers. In Super Mega Mode they wield their Super Mega Blasters and Super Mega Sabers. By occasionally switching their weapons with each other they can double their blasting and sword powers.
Troy Burrows
Troy Burrows is the Megaforce Red Ranger and leader of the Mega Rangers. He is new in town and a loner to start with, but he is fast at making friends when he joins the Megaforce. He is very skilled in martial arts. He had a tough upbringing that made him responsible and focused, making Troy leader material in the opinion of Gosei, which when combined with his compassion, loyalty, and support of the underdog, makes him the perfect role model for a Ranger. Troy also has dreams involving his team's predecessors fighting an unknown evil, a premonition that eventually comes true in the finale of Power Rangers Megaforce. He is the most skillful of the Rangers and holds an unbreakable fighting spirit and complete belief in humankind's potential as a species to work together and beat the odds. He wields the Dragon Sword in battle and pilots the Dragon MechaZord. He wields the elemental power of fire. Even though at it is not official, Troy and Emma have an obvious special connection.
When the Armada invades, Troy is given a Legendary Morpher by Gosei and the ability to morph into the Super Megaforce Red Ranger. He senses that his recurring dream is coming true as he still looks for Robo Knight. Following the fight with Cybax, Troy has a feeling that the Rangers will meet Robo Knight again someday. When he gains his Super Megaforce Key, he pilots the Super Mega Skyship which also serves as the Megaforce Rangers' mode of transportation and the carrier of the other Zords. In Super Megaforce he gains the ability to morph into Legendary Red Rangers.
Troy is portrayed by Andrew Gray.
Emma Goodall
Emma Goodall is the Megaforce Pink Ranger. She is a BMX biker who loves nature and wants to protect the environment, taking the alien attack on Earth and the Toxic Mutants' campaign to pollute the Earth very personally. In the episode "Harmony and Dizchord", it is revealed that Emma has an excellent singing voice which she inherited from her late mother. She uses this to counteract Dizchord's attack. She is the most feeling and comprehensive of the Rangers and bears a strong connection to the natural world and is sensitive to the point of recognizing the potential of good in others, even if they are supposedly enemies. She wields the Phoenix Shot in battle and pilots the Phoenix MechaZord. She wields the elemental power of air and can summon the Sky Brothers (consisting of the Hawk Zord, the Ptera Zord, and the Crow Zord) at will (even when shared with Troy), which may then be used for either the Sky Blast or the Ultimate Dino Blast.
When the Armada begins its invasion, Emma saves Ernie's BrainFreeze from the X Borgs before they can find Ernie. Upon gaining her Super Megaforce Key, Emma pilots the Super Mega Sub Zord. In "Spirit of the Tiger," the training Emma got from Casey Rhodes enabled her to channel the spirit of the Phoenix. In Super Megaforce she gains the ability to morph into Legendary Pink and White Rangers.
Emma is portrayed by Christina Masterson.
Noah Carver
Noah Carver is the Megaforce Blue Ranger and a nerd and tech geek who uses his intelligence rather than brute strength in battle. He is best friends with Jake and they are a perfect team together, complementing and balancing each other's brain and brawn. Noah is also interested in the supernatural and fields of strange and peculiar science such as cryptozoology and extraterrestrial life. He is usually also second-in-command of the team. He wields the Shark Bowgun in battle and pilots the Shark MechaZord, controlling the elemental power of water and the willing invoke of the Sea Brothers (consisting of the Manta Zord, the Sawshark Zord, and the Hammerhead Zord), which may then be used to produce the Sea Blast. Even during battle, he is the most creative and cunning of the Rangers and usually deploys strategies of quick thinking when an opponent proves too much to take down by conventional means.
During the Armada's invasion, Noah stops the X Borgs from invading Harwood County High school while saving the students. After the Armada's first invasion, Noah finds Mr. Burley in his office where Noah helps to catch his artifacts. When he gains his Super Megaforce Key, Noah pilots the Super Mega Jet Zord. Noah also convinces Mr. Burley to continue teaching his class. Noah then researches the different Power Rangers teams and wonders if they can tap into their respectful Zords. Noah later questions his worthiness after he was beaten in battle by Skatana and starts training to counter Skatana's Blade of Infinity attack. During the duel, Noah was able to use the swords of his teammates to counter Skatana's attacks and defeat him. In Super Megaforce he develops strong sword skills and the ability to morph into Legendary Blue Rangers.
Noah is portrayed by John Mark Loudermilk.
Jake Holling
Jake Holling is the Megaforce Black Ranger, and in the second season the Super Megaforce Green Ranger. He is also Gia Moran's love interest. He is out-going, optimistic, fun-loving, and fearless, whether on the battlefield or in social situations. He wants very much to make his identity as the Black Megaforce Ranger public, but like the others is sworn to secrecy. Jake is Noah's best friend and the two are an unbeatable force when together, complementing each other's skills. His only weakness is his crush on Gia, which later provokes jealousy when Orion arrives and takes a liking to her in Power Rangers Super Megaforce. He is the toughest and physically strongest of the Rangers and usually the comic relief of the team. However, he will also provide a word of advice and intuition from time to time and his athletic and sport abilities are a great asset to the Megaforce during battle. Jake wields the Snake Axe in battle and pilots the Snake MechaZord. He wields the elemental power of earth and can call upon the Land Brothers whenever needed also shares the Land Brothers with Gia Moran.
During the Armada's invasion, Jake receives his Super Mega Mode key in green and is told by Gosei that his key is unique. He also pilots the Racer Megazord in this form. In "Spirit of the Tiger", the training Jake gets from Casey Rhodes enables him to channel the spirit of the snake. In Super Megaforce, he gains the ability to morph into Legendary Green and Black Rangers.
Jake is portrayed by Azim Rizk.
Gia Moran
Gia Moran is the Megaforce Yellow Ranger and is labeled as "Miss Perfect". She is also Jake's love interest. Gia is personable, skilled in martial arts, and as intelligent as she is confident. She and Emma have been best friends since they were very young, and this has not stopped despite now being in different social circles. This friendship is tested by Beezara's spell in the episode "United We Stand". Gia eventually comes to known about Jake's feelings for her and comes to tolerate it but seemingly not correspond it. She is the most responsible and focused of the Rangers as well as being very fast and agile. Gia will also, at times, act as a secondary leader to the Megaforce. She later takes a liking to Orion. Gia wields the Tiger Claw in battle and pilots the Tiger MechaZord. She wields the elemental power of earth and has access to the Land Brothers (consisting of the Beetle Zord, the Dino Zord, and the Rhino Zord) if the situation calls for it, making them useful for the Ultimate Dino Blast.
When the Armada begins its invasion, Gia saves some civilians from the X Borgs. Upon gaining her Super Megaforce Key, Gia pilots the Super Mega Wheeler Zord. In Super Megaforce she gains the ability to morph into Legendary Yellow Rangers. Gia returns in Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel.
Gia is portrayed by Ciara Hanna.
Orion
Orion is the Silver Megaforce Ranger who appears in the Super Megaforce season. He is from the planet Andresia, a planet not unlike Earth, where he used to work in a rock quarry as a miner. One day at work, he discovered a crystal container containing the Silver Ranger Key and a mysterious box that had the details of the Legendary Sixth Rangers. When the Armada arrived on Andresia, all of his friends and family were lost in the attacks. By using the Key and Morpher, he becomes the Silver Ranger, having to survive on his own by training hard. When the opportunity arose, he shot down and stole one of the few Armada ships that had been left to guard Andresia and traveled to Earth, having tracked the Armada there. During his time on Earth, he has been protecting the warehouse district and downtown from X-Borg platoons, until the attack of Gorgax leads Orion to meet the other Megaforce Power Rangers, saving them from the bomb Levira has placed on the monster's force-field collar before destroying Gorgax and introducing himself to the others. However, Gia recognizes him from having met him multiple times prior, including a short stint he had working at Ernie's. After Orion reveals his past and is introduced to Gosei and Tensou, who tell the Rangers to introduce him to Earth's culture, with Gia and Emma taking on the task of making him look like anyone else on Earth - starting with a haircut and a clothes shopping trip. Gia then takes liking in him which follows by Jake's jealousy who are then forced to work together. Their plans are disrupted by Commander Osegain and his platoon, and during the attack Orion calls on the Time Force Q-Rex to battle, after which Troy welcomes Orion to the Megaforce team. In "Vrak is Back" Pt. 1, Vrak captures Orion in order to drain his Silver Ranger powers, while at the same time siphoning away his lifeforce.
He has the ability to morph into the Legendary Sixth Rangers. Orion later gains the ability to combine his Sixth Ranger Keys to assume a Super Mega Gold form, with all the powers of said Ranger Keys. Orion also pilots a new version of the Q-Rex where it has a drill vehicle form, a Tyrannosaurus form, and a new Q-Rex Megazord form.
Orion is portrayed by Cameron Jebo.
Allies
Gosei
Gosei is a supernatural guardian, who apparently was once mentored by Zordon and was tasked to be Earth's guardian. Awakened by the threat of the Warstar, Gosei recruits the Megaforce Power Rangers. He acts as the Rangers' mentor and advisor, giving them new powers, weapons and Megazords as the series progresses. He has taken the appearance of a tiki head, believing it would ease the Rangers into accepting his existence as it is something they are familiar with. The Gosei Morphers are modelled after him and the Megazords in the first season are named after him.
Gosei is voiced by Geoffrey Dolan in the TV series and by Jamieson Price in the video game adaption.
Tensou
Tensou is Gosei's shy and clumsy robotic assistant who assists the Rangers by providing them arsenal as well as locating their enemies with an advanced radar system if they are on Earth. Tensou resembles a flimsy toy, and is 1/3 the size of the Rangers.
Tensou is voiced by Estevez Gillespie.
Ernie
Ernie is the manager of the local juice bar "Ernie's BrainFreeze". He is frequently acquainted by the Rangers during their free time.
During the Armada's first invasion, Ernie takes refuge behind the counter of his juice bar when the X Borgs invade it. Ernie is saved by Emma.
Ernie is portrayed by Shailesh Prajapati.
Mr. Burley
Mr. Burley is the high school science teacher at Harwood County High School. He is also considered to be a believer of the paranormal and other supernatural phenomena. Noah shows plenty of interest in his work.
Following the Armada's first invasion, Noah finds Mr. Burley in his office trying to keep his artifacts from falling. Noah helps Mr. Burley with this and tells him that he should keep teaching. When Mr. Burley enters his class, he recaps his question on who would outlive some life on Earth and states that the humans would if they work together.
Mr. Burley is portrayed by Ian Harcourt.
Robo Knight
Robo Knight is a mysterious robotic knight who was created by Gosei centuries ago for the sole purpose of protecting the Earth's environment. He first briefly appears in Troy's dream of the Legendary Battle, and later makes his debut in the episode "Robo Knight". It is revealed that after being dormant for so long he has lost some of his memory, including the one where Gosei created him. When the Toxic Mutants emerge, Robo Knight aids the Rangers but then leaves. At first fighting without thinking about human sacrifices and leaving the saving to the Mega Rangers, their influence gradually changes him. Robo Knight then spends the rest of the first season trying to understand human nature. Robo Knight has the ability to turn into the Lion Zord which can combine with a dump truck to become the Lion MechaZord and joins with the Knight Brothers (consisting of the Sky Lion Zord and the Sea Lion Zord) to form the Gosei Grand Megazord.
In the finale of Megaforce titled "End Game", Robo Knight sacrifices the bulk of his energy to restore the Rangers' Morphers. He disappears as the Armada's invasion begins; and Troy starts to look for Robo Knight's current whereabouts. Troy has a feeling that the Rangers will meet Robo Knight again someday, since his dreams foretell Robo Knight joining them in the fight against the Armada.
Robo Knight resurfaces in "Vrak Is Back, Part 1", where it is revealed that his body was found by Vrak. Vrak reprograms Robo Knight to serve him and orders him to steal the Sixth Ranger power from Orion and corrupt it. In "Vrak Is Back, Part 2", a powerful blow from Troy brings Robo Knight back to senses. Robo Knight returns to Vrak's underwater lair to free Orion. However, he gets stuck in its destruction and he leaves his power to Orion to help fight off the Armada.
Robo Knight somehow survived or was somehow rebuilt and showed up in the middle of the battle from the Armada along with the Mega Rangers and the Legendary Rangers in "Legendary Battle".
Robo Knight is voiced by Chris Auer in the TV series and by Richard Epcar in the video game adaption.

Zords
Main article: List of ZordsWarstar Empire
The Warstar Empire are the main antagonists in the Megaforce series and is depicted as the most widespread intergalactic force throughout the cosmos. It is ruled by classes of alien royalty and nobility.
Insectoids
The Insectoids are a large group of insect-themed alien invaders. Their base is the Warstar Spaceship, a massive warship hovering the Earth directly above Harwood County. Due to merely being an advance party for the Armada, they only had a few monsters to use against the Rangers, although they are clearly powerful enough to prompt Gosei to recruit the team - which only adds to the Rangers's shock at the power of the Armada, which greatly eclipsed that of the Insectoids.
Admiral Malkor
Admiral Malkor is the Luna moth-themed Insectoid leader. He sees every asset as useful in an insect invasion. During battle, Malkor wields an axe of his likeness and is capable of disintegration and energy firing as well as metamorphosize to power up. His signature moves are Planet Strike and Meteor Shower. The Warstar Admiral is highly intelligent and, unique among Power Ranger villains, many of which tend to see their minions as expendable, has a very respectful and regarding nature towards his comrades and allies. The Toxic Mutants and the Robots later indirectly ally with Admiral Malkor to aid the cause of the Insectoids through Vrak's behalf. After the defeat of the Toxic Mutants, Malkor goes into a cocoon to further increase his power. After re-emerging in the episode "The Human Condition", he finally faces the Rangers, and, after a lengthy battle, he is destroyed by the Ultra Gosei Great Megazord.
Admiral Malkor is voiced by Campbell Cooley.
Creepox
Creepox is a rash mantis-themed warrior who is Malkor's loyal right-hand. Unlike his cohorts, he has very little patience to plan and has an extremely short temper. Due to this, he constantly argues with Vrak. Creepox's main weapons are the sickles on his forearms. His size makes him the physically strongest of his kind. His signature moves are Meteor Shot and Galaxy Meteor Shot. Creepox follows a warrior code of honor and pride but, if pressed, he becomes entirely driven by rage and uses his raw strength to enforce the superiority of the Insectoids. He develops a rivalry with Troy after the latter refuses to fight him. In "Stranger Ranger", he engages Troy in battle, but his cockiness allows Troy to beat him. He finally meets his end in the episode "Who's Crying Now?" when he is destroyed by the Ultra Gosei Great Megazord.
Creepox is voiced by Mark Mitchinson.
Vrak
Vrak is a cunning and treacherous member of alien nobility who was sent by his father Emperor Mavro to serve as the Insectoids' war advisor, thus he is the only one who is not truly an Insectoid. He solves matters with reasoning and comes up with elaborated plans to take over Earth, seeking to achieve victory at all costs. Vrak alters his form between his usual lance-wielding treehopper-armored form and his gauntlet-clawed Chupacabra/centipede-armored fighting form. He later forges an alliance with the Toxic Mutants and builds Metal Alice to lead the Robots. Mortally wounded by the destruction of the Warstar Spaceship, Vrak is rescued by Metal Alice, who revives him as an ammonite-armored cyborg with his useless emotions removed; however, he initially suffers amnesia as a result of the conversion. Vrak is the primary and most proactive enemy to the Megaforce Rangers before he goes into hiding as the Armada arrive at the suggestion of the Messenger's head since the Armada wouldn't recognize his cyborg form. Vrak resurfaces in "Vrak is Back" following the destruction of his brother, Prince Vekar where he abducts Orion to drain his powers, reprograms Robo Knight into Dark Robo Knight to serve him, and plans to tear the Earth apart with special drills. It is revealed that Emperor Mavro favors Vrak more than Vekar and that the Rangers "did him a favor" by destroying him late in Super Megaforce. Vrak is shown to have gained the ability to change at will between his three forms and his true angel-like form that he calls his "Prince Vrak" form. Vrak is finally destroyed by Troy in "Vrak is Back" Pt. 2.
Vrak is voiced by Jason Hood.
Loogies
Loogies are the lime-colored humanoid Insectoid foot soldiers. They attack on swarms and wield daggers that double as blasters. Virox can transform humans into Loogies by sneezing on them. They are only used by the advance party Warstar aliens while the Armanda uses X Borgs and Bruisers instead.
Zombats
Zombats are Vrak's one-eyed, bat-like robots. They are used to grow monsters and certain objects. Whenever they act on someone, a blue hexagon forms with the symbol of its army at its center. They are called "Zombolts" when used to enlarge a robot. With Vrak in hiding in Super Megaforce, the Zombats are replaced by Levira's Maximizer, but Vrak uses them upon his return.
Insectoid Monsters
- Scaraba (voiced by Anthony Ray Parker) - A scarab monster that is able to create large boulders to attack enemies. This monster was destroyed by the Power Rangers Rangers' Megaforce Blaster.
- Yuffo (voiced by Joel Tobeck in the TV series, Richard Epcar in the video game adaption) - A ladybug monster scientist who conducts experiments and recalls a UFO. He can secrete capture nets and split himself into small UFOs. This monster was destroyed by the Gosei Great Megazord.
- Virox (voiced by Kevin Harty) - A stinkbug monster able to sneeze out a virus that turns humans into Loogies. This monster was destroyed by Sea Gosei Great Megazord.
- Dragonflay (voiced by Robert Mignault) - A dragonfly monster who is able to run at great speeds and shoot lasers from his eyes. This monster was destroyed by Land Gosei Great Megazord.
- Beezara (voiced by Sarah Banasiak) - A wasp monster who is a member of royalty. Beezara has venomous royal jelly which turns males into servants and females into enemies. She turned Gia and Emma against each other before their friendship broke the spell. This monster was destroyed by Sky Gosei Great Megazord.
- Dizchord (voiced by Dean Young) - A rhyming cricket monster that fancies himself as the best musician in the universe - but nothing could be farther from the truth. His sound is extremely painful to most people who hear it until Emma - aided by Troy - negates it with her voice. This monster was destroyed by Gosei Great Megazord.
Toxic Mutants
The Toxic Mutants are pollution-made beings whose sole wish is to intoxicate Earth and make it suitable to their kind. Each of the Toxic Mutants incorporates the appearances of a cryptid and an invertebrate. They ally with the Insectoids to reach their goal. Their base is an oozy underground cavern near a large lake at the forest surrounding Harwood County. The defeat of both Bigs and Bluefur, the last of their kind, places an end to the evil faction.
Bigs
Bigs is a slimy Mutant with earthworm-like features who has an overly goofy and joyous personality. He has great respect for his toxic brethren. Direct contact with toxins enhances his strength. He uses a scepter-like cane or a set of twin staffs to fight and can dissolve into an amorphous state to evade being hit by or deflect any attacks. Being made of slime also allows Bigs to reform if the noxious ooze that makes up his body is not totally annihilated. Bigs can also harness the Aurora Box and fire it through his signature move, the Aurora Blast. He is destroyed by the Mega Rangers' Ultra Dynamic Strike in the episode "Gosei Ultimate".
Bigs is voiced by Charlie McDermott.
Bluefur
Bluefur is a short-tempered Bigfoot-themed Mutant with tarantula-like features who is the largest and strongest of his race. He wields a double-headed club in battle and uses it to bash his foes. Similarly to Bigs, Bluefur shows much esteem for his kind and regards them with great respect. He can stomp the ground with extreme force to unleash a foot-shaped shockwave or combine his double club with Bigs' cane to generate powerful balls of toxic fire as well as enter a dual formation to fix and lock Bigs' aim when the latter uses the Aurora Blast. In the episode "Gosei Ultimate", he is destroyed by the Gosei Ultimate Megazord.
Bluefur is voiced by Jay Simon in the TV series and by Jamieson Price in the video game adaption.
Toxic Monsters
- Hisser (voiced by Estevez Gillespie) - A Tsuchinoko/pill bug-themed mutant. He can dig underground, spin extremely fast, and spew green slime. This monster was destroyed by Robo Knight in the form of the Lion Mechazord. Distractor later creates an illusion of Hisser which became real afterwards. This time, this monster was destroyed by the Rangers' Ultra Power Dynamic Strike.
- Psychotick (voiced by Kelson Henderson) - An energy-draining Kappa/tick-themed mutant that is summoned by Vrak. His signature move is Tick Attack.

He wields spikes in battle, can shoot lasers, breathe fire and steal shadows from other living beings with his tongue, rendering them motionless. This monster was destroyed by the Gosei Great Grand Megazord.
- Distractor (voiced by Scott Wills) - A specter/spider-themed mutant. He was enlisted by Vrak to cause a diversion on the Rangers so that he can steal the Wild Sword.

This monster was destroyed by the Ultra Power Dynamic Strike.
- Gremlin (voiced by Oscar Burt-Shearer) - A sword-wielding gremlin/flea-themed mutant who once fought the Rangers (albeit off-screen) some time before "Ultra Power". He first appeared as an illusion formed by Distractor to distract the Rangers and later took physical form. This monster was destroyed by the Rangers' Ultra Power Dynamic Strike. In "Raising Spirits," it is revealed that Gremlin has a cousin named Glytcher.
- Mummy - A staff-wielding mummy/centipede-themed mutant who once fought the Rangers (albeit off-screen) some time before "Ultra Power". He was created as an illusion and later given life by Distractor. This monster was destroyed by the Rangers' Ultra Dynamic Strike attack.

- Nojoke (voiced by Simon McKinney in the TV series, Bryce Papenbrook in the video game adaption) - A Tengu/scorpion-themed mutant who has the ability to trap people inside gourds and turn them into a nourishing drink after they dissolve within them. He does so simply because human laughter annoys him. Nojoke can flap his wings to create powerful winds and bind foes with tickling rings. This monster was destroyed by the Gosei Grand Megazord after being incapacitated by the Sea Gosei Great Megazord.
- Dream Snatcher (voiced by Joseph Rye) - A dream-eating, Spanish-accented, Baku/worm-themed mutant that wields a fork and considers himself a matador.

This monster was destroyed by the Gosei Great Grand Megazord.
- Glytcher (voiced by Oscar Burt-Shearer) - A gremlin/flea-themed mutant who is the identical cousin of Gremlin. He causes glitches in electronics and has good leaping ability.

This monster was destroyed by the Gosei Great Megazord and the Gosei Grand Megazord.
Robots
The Robots are an artificial army created in order to replace the Insectoids and Mutants and continue the war against humanity. Their base is Vrak's underwater laboratory located in the shallow coastal sea surrounding Harwood County.
Metal Alice
Metal Alice is a female robot who Vrak creates in his lab. She is completed some time after Bigs and Bluefur are defeated. Alice considers humans as inferior beings and does her best to eliminate the Power Rangers on behalf of her master. She initially tried to convince Robo Knight to join her, but he refused as humans were a part of the Earth's environment. Although at first cold and ruthless, like she was designed to be, she eventually develops feelings for Vrak after he becomes a cyborg and saves her life. When Metal Alice falls against the Megaforce alongside the Messenger however, Vrak leaves and she realizes he never really valued her at all.
Metal Alice is voiced by Sophie Henderson in the TV series and by Marieve Herington in the video game adaption.
Robot Monsters
- Rotox (voiced by Mark Wright) - Rotox is a scallop-themed robot who is the first of Metal Alice's machines. Created before Vrak in order to show the power of robots, he can emit lasers and chains, roll up into his shell and combine junk into a shield. Upon being born, Metal Alice attacks him and her left leg is severed. Vrak is impressed by his strength. This monster was destroyed by the Ultra Power Dynamic Strike.
- Rotox DX (voiced by Mark Wright) - A rebuilt and upgraded version of Rotox built after gathering info about the previous battle. His strength is enhanced tenfold. He is beaten by the Ultra Knight Dynamic. Rotox DX is then enlarged by the Zombats and fights against the Gosei Grand and Gosei Ultimate Megazords. After Gosei Grand disarms Rotox DX of his claw and spear, Gosei Ultimate finishes the fight with the Ultimate Strike.
- Water Rotox (voiced by Mark Wright) - Three robotic clones of Rotox that were used as part of the final robot onslaught. They can withstand rusting and boast a wide arsenal. Like the Loogies, however, the Megaforce easily disposes of them, each taken down by a dual attack.
- Rico (voiced by Scott Wills) - R-1-C-0 (short for Robot 1-C-0) is a mechanical starfish-themed creation of Metal Alice with an unusual purpose. Robot 1-C-0 (who was renamed Rico by Emma) was created to unveil the meaning of friendship. Though Metal Alice attempts to make Rico revert to a heartless machine, Emma and the other Rangers help him escape the Earth and therefore her control, leaving him the only robot they have not destroyed.
Armada
The Armada is a large army that is led by Emperor Mavro and Prince Vekar and was heralded by the Warstar Insectoids, their high-ranking forces. Unlike the Warstar, the Armada is composed of several ships following Prince Vekar's flagship and therefore has more monsters to use against the Rangers. When Emperor Mavro arrives, he replaces Vekar's fleet with his own, while sending out a message to all remaining Armada ships to converge on Earth. In "The Wrath", the Armada is shown to have a large number of vessels, as no sooner do the Power Rangers destroy all but Mavro's ship, a new fleet blankets the sky and destroys their Zords.
Prince Vekar
Prince Vekar is the older brother of Vrak, the eldest son of Emperor Mavro, and the primary fleet leader of the Armada. Like his brother, Vekar is cunning and treacherous, using his intellect to get what he wants. Unlike Vrak however, Vekar is hot-headed, impulsive and quick to rage. Vekar is also childish, once demanding Damaras and Argus to stop being taller than him. Despite being more spoiled than Vrak, he shows clear resentment towards his brother for being Mavro's favorite son and allowed to take on special assignments for the Armada in secret. He seems to be rather incompetent and more likely to fall into traps. Vekar hates losing to the Rangers and he often takes credit for ideas his minions come up with, something they don't argue with. He is also so vain that he refuses to be in battle in fear of having his face damaged. Prince Vekar, while piloting the Armada Megazord, is later destroyed by the Ultimate Legendary Megazord's Flying Fist attack. When fighting the Rangers, Vrak mentions that the Rangers "did him a favor" by eliminating his brother.
Prince Vekar is voiced by Stephen Butterworth in the TV series and by Sam Riegel in the video game adaption.
Messenger
The Messenger is a robot that works as the Warstar's special envoy and advance scout. The Messenger boasts beams, missiles and lasers and a defense boosted by the Ultra Mode-like Royal Shield, his signature defense move. He joins Metal Alice shortly after Vrak's reboot and informs Vrak that the Armada is heading to Earth. He follows a warrior code of honor and loyalty.
In his final battle, the little that is left of his being following his defeat advises Vrak to conceal himself to avoid being mistaken for an enemy by the invasion forces comprising the Armada under the command of Vrak's older brother Prince Vekar. His head was destroyed during the invasion of the Armada.
Messenger is voiced by Andrew Laing.
Levira
Levira is a scientist who works on behalf of Prince Vekar. Levira is also the inventor of the Maximizer (satellite-like devices on the Armada's flagship that fires purple lasers) which she uses to grow more than one monster at a time. Levira is quite close to Prince Vekar, being his confidant and occasional co-conspirator. She is very cold and ruthless to others. In battle, Levira wields a laser whip. Forced by Emperor Mavro to prove herself by defeating the Power Rangers, Levira takes them on in her own Megazord, but it is destroyed, leading to a face-to-face fight. Badly wounded, Levira begs Emperor Mavro to use the Maximizer to revive her before she would explode, but he instead lets her be destroyed since he was just using her to distract the Rangers while the Armada gets reinforcements.
Levira is voiced by Rebecca Parr.
Argus
Argus is a cyborg who works as the personal bodyguard of Prince Vekar. He is most commonly known for his catchphrase "Yes, boss" whenever Vekar gives an order. He was destroyed in battle against Noah.
Argus is voiced by Mark Wright in the TV series and by Tony Oliver in the video game adaption.
Damaras
Damaras is a general who works for Prince Vekar and was given orders by Emperor Mavro not to let anything happen to him. He is Prince Vekar's second-in-command and is far more level-headed than his superior. He has a temper, and often comes up with ideas that Prince Vekar takes credit for; however, he doesn't point this out. Damaras finally questions Vekar's leadership and feels guilty for not assisting him when he is destroyed by the Rangers. He is sent by Mavro for once chance at redemption by capturing Troy. Though Damaras succeeds, he is later foiled and destroyed by the other Rangers. He is the final member of the Armada to be revived and enlarged by Levira's Maximizer.
Damaras is voiced by John Leigh in the TV series and by Patrick Seitz in the video game adaption.
Emperor Mavro
Emperor Mavro is the Kraken-themed Emperor of the Armada, the father to Vrak and Vekar, and the supreme ruler of its military as well a good friend of Admiral Malkor. He obviously favored his younger son Vrak evident when Vekar overheard his conversation with Damaras that lead to his resentment towards Mavro and wanting to prove to him that he's more than a blunderer. Shortly after Vekar and Vrak's deaths, Emperor Mavro arrives to Earth take the place of his sons in conquering the Earth. Desiring the demise of the Rangers, he sends Damaras and Levira to battle them in what becomes suicide missions even when he has all Armada forces across the galaxy head to Earth. However, Emperor Mavro does succeed in eliminating both of the Megazords. In the final battle, Emperor Mavro was defeated by Troy and Orion, but survived the crash, then took on the entire team with every last bit of endurance in him. Mavro was destroyed for real by the combined powers of the Super Mega Rangers and the Super Mega Cannon. Before he went down for good, he's summoned every last X Borg left to avenge him by destroy the Power Rangers.
Emperor Mavro is voiced by Mike Drew.
X Borgs
The X Borgs are the foot soldiers of the Armada, marked with an "X" on their chests. Being mechanical, they lack the weakness of suffering from fatigue, and thus are much harder to defeat than Loogies, which were living beings. As revealed in the "Silver Lining" two parter, the Armada has enough X Borgs, or can mass-produce them fast enough, to launch repeated attacks in the same day.
Bruisers
The Bruisers are the elite foot soldiers of the Armada. They are much more powerful than the X Borgs and can transform into fighter jets for aerial combat. The Bruisers can also be enlarged by the Maximizer to help fight the Megazords. They bear a small similarity to Psycho Blue Ranger's monster form.
