The Strongest Power Rangers Teams, Ranked

Every Power Rangers team is someone’s favorite, but they’re not all equally powerful. While every Ranger accesses their powers through the Morphin Grid, they all have different means of accessing it, different abilities and power-ups, and different levels of training. The villains each team faced are also not all comparable in strength.




Not every Rangers team is stronger than the one that came before it, but more recent teams tend to have more special powers than older ones. The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers may have been the first Power Rangers team, but there are quite a few later teams that are stronger.

  • The Wild Force Rangers use their Animal Crystals to harness the power of the living Wild Zords.
  • Cole Evans, the Wild Force Red Ranger, destroyed Serpentera with the Wild Force Rider.

How Will The End of BOOM! Studios’ Power Rangers Saga Impact The Franchise?

The end of BOOM! Studios’ Power Rangers saga has left a whole new mystery behind in its wake, which is only one way it helped redefine the franchise.

Living on the Animarium are the Wild Zords, living zords possessing great power. Each Wild Zord chooses a Ranger to grant their strength, which they tap into using an Animal Crystal and a Growl Morpher. Using their powers, the Wild Force Rangers defeat the Orgs, sentient embodiments of mankind’s pollution of the Earth.

Among the Wild Force Rangers is Merrick Baliton, the Lunar Wolf Ranger. Merrick is not only the most powerful Wild Force Ranger but the most skilled, having been one of the six Ancient Warriors in the original battle with the Orgs 3,000 years ago and having defeated Master Org in the past. Wild Force Red, Cole, possesses the strongest Wild Force weapon, the Wild Force Rider. Gifted to him by Animus, a god, Cole uses the Wild Force Rider to destroy Lord Zedd’s planet-destroying zord, Serpentera.


14 Grid Battleforce Has Some of the Strongest Power Rangers on Their Lineup

The Morph-X Rangers from Power Rangers Beast Morphers

  • The heroes of Power Rangers Beast Morphers range from human geniuses to robots with hearts of gold (or Steel)
  • Grid Battleforce uses concentrated Morphin Grid Energy known as Morph-X to fuel their powers

The eponymous team of Power Rangers Beast Morphers, officially known as the Grid Battleforce Rangers, draw their powers directly from the Morphin Grid, just as so many others before them. Unlike other Power Rangers teams, however, the Grid Battleforce Rangers derive their powers from a distilled essence of Morphin Grid Energies known as Morph-X, which also happens to be their biggest problem.


Thankfully, the individual members of Grid Battleforce include some of the most capable heroes the franchise has ever known. Among them is Nate Silva, the Gold Ranger of the team, who was the one to discover and develop Morph-X in the first place. There is also Steel, a Beast Bot who became the latest Silver Ranger after escaping the villainous Evox and absorbing trace amounts of both human and scarab DNA.

13 The Dino Charge Rangers Are Fueled by the Mighty Energems

Ten Rangers stand ready in Power Rangers Dino Charge

  • The Dino Charge Rangers get their powers from the Energems, which grant them immortality.
  • With eleven Rangers, the Dino Charge team is larger than any other.


The Dino Charge Rangers didn’t defeat the most impressive opponents, merely the bounty hunter, Sledge, and the less-than-impressive conqueror, Lord Arcanon. However, imagining they could have defeated much more threatening villains is easy. Armed with the Energems, one of the most sought-after power sources in the universe, the Dino Charge Rangers are immortal and possess a vast arsenal of weapons.

The strongest member of the Dino Charge Rangers is Zenowing, Dino Charge Silver, who has over 65 million years of experience. What separates the Dino Charge Rangers from their peers are their numbers. At eleven Rangers, including Heckyl, the Dark Ranger, the Dino Charge Rangers are a larger team than any other.

12 The Jungle Fury Rangers Master Their Animal Spirits to Achieve Jungle Master Mode

  • The Jungle Fury Rangers are all master martial artists who’ve harnessed their animal spirits.
  • Casey, Theo, and Lily traveled into the afterlife to obtain Spirit Master Mode.

10 Power Rangers Teams That Deserve a Reunion Special

“Once & Always” was a fantastic reunion for the Mighty Morphin cast, but other Power Rangers teams deserve their own specials.

The Jungle Fury Rangers are martial arts masters whose power comes from within. Their animal spirits power their Morphers, honed and trained for years. Together, the Jungle Fury Rangers defeat Dai Shi, an ancient dragon, and his army. The strongest member of the Jungle Fury Rangers, in their base forms, is RJ, the Violet Wolf Ranger. RJ is the other Rangers’ mentor and doesn’t need a weapon to defeat his enemies, relying exclusively on Muay Thai.


Casey, Theo, and Lily all surpass their mentor in power in the episode “Ghost of a Chance Part 2”. The three core Rangers travel to the afterlife to receive training from long-dead masters and return from their quest with greater strength than ever. By combining the gorilla, antelope, and penguin animal spirits with their respective tiger, jaguar, and cheetah animal spirits, the core Jungle Fury Rangers unlock Jungle Master Mode.

11 The Ninja Storm Rangers Proved Far Stronger Than the Dino Thunder Rangers

  • With or without their Ranger powers, the Ninja Storm rangers can manipulate wind, water, earth, and lightning.
  • While brainwashed by Lothor, the Ninja Storm Rangers easily defeated the Dino Thunder Rangers.


The Ninja Storm Rangers are all trained ninjas. They supplement their martial ability with command over wind, water, earth, and lightning. These are powers the Rangers have access to even without their Morphers, and these are the powers they use to defeat Lothor, an evil ninja on par with their sensei after he steals their Ranger powers. The team’s strongest member is Cameron Watanabe, the Green Samurai Ranger, who’s also the best fighter and smartest member of the team and can become even stronger in Super Samurai Mode.

In the Power Rangers Dino Thunder team-up episodes, “Thunder Storm Parts 1 & 2”, Shane, Dustin, and Tori are brainwashed by Lothor into fighting the Dino Thunder Rangers. The Wind Rangers attack the core Dino Thunder Rangers and make short work of them, clarifying that their mystical ninja powers trump the power of the Dino Thunder Rangers’ Dino Gems.


10 The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Set the Precedent for Every Future Team

The Power Rangers line up behind the White Ranger in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie

  • The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers are the very first of their kind
  • The Mighty Morphin team laid the foundation for every future team of Power Rangers

In 1993, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers took over the airwaves, and the realm of pop culture was never the same again. While color-coded teams of tokusatsu heroes had already become a phenomenon unto themselves overseas, it wasn’t until the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers made their debut that North American audiences fell in love with the same concepts for themselves.


Even though the Mighty Morphin team didn’t have nearly the same kind of access to resources and steady streams of upgrades that their successors would come into, that didn’t keep them from standing tall against all interstellar threats. Whether it was Rita Repulsa and her fellow Evil Space Aliens or the dreaded Ivan Ooze, no battle was too big for the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, especially not when they had the greatest Ranger of all time, Tommy Oliver, leading the charge.

9 The Lost Galaxy Rangers Are Powered By Quasar Sabers, the Galactabeasts, and the Lights of Orion

Power Rangers Lost Galaxy with the Lights of Orion

  • The Lost Galaxy Rangers draw strength from multiple mystical sources.
  • The Magna Defender is one of the strongest Power Rangers characters.

The Galaxy Rangers draw power from more sources than nearly any other Ranger team. The Quasar Sabers chose the core Rangers to pull them from their stone on Mirinoi, instilling them with their initial powers. They then meet and free the Galactabeasts from their prison, who grant the Rangers their power and the ability to pilot them as zords. Later, the Rangers are chosen by the Lights of Orion to wield them, which enhances the Galaxy Rangers to new levels.


The Galaxy Rangers defeat Scorpius, an ancient alien conqueror, and his daughter, Trakeena. This is accomplished without the aid of their strongest member, The Magna Defender, a several-thousand-year-old warrior with the power to fight the other Rangers all at once. Using The Magna Defender’s power, Mike isn’t quite as strong as the original, but he still serves as an impressive team member.

8 The Samurai Rangers Were Born and Bred to Defeat the Nighlok

  • The Samurai Rangers were all trained from birth to be Power Rangers.
  • The Samurai Rangers possess multiple powered-up forms, and not one, but two Red Rangers.

10 Most Complex Power Rangers Characters, Ranked

The original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers may have been charmingly simple, but the Power Rangers franchise is filled with other complex characters.

The Samurai Ranger powers are passed down through family bloodlines, and each new generation is trained from birth to fight the Nighlok. As the team to defeat Master Xandred and his army once and for all, the team followed in Power Rangers Samurai is the greatest team of Samurai Rangers of all time.

The Samurai Rangers possess multiple powered-up forms, including Super Samurai Mode, Shark Attack Mode, and Shogun Mode. In their Ranger forms, the team’s most powerful member is Antonio Garcia, the Gold Samurai Ranger, who trained himself and built his own Morpher. Without their Ranger power, Lauren Shiba, the true leader and Red Ranger of the Samurai Rangers, stands above her team, having dedicated her entire life to training in symbol power without any distractions.


7 Power Rangers Super Samurai Raised the Previous Series’ Team to New Heights

Mike Super Samurai header

  • Power Rangers Super Samurai introduced new weapons, armor, and Zords for the heroes to use
  • Power Rangers Super Samurai also upped the ante by pitting its heroes against more dangerous villains

When the Samurai Rangers’ enemies, the Nighloks, continued amassing power in the name of their ruler, Master Xandred, the heroes were forced to call upon the power of the then-newly introduced Black Box to even the odds. Once they did, the Rangers discovered that the Black Box connected them to abilities they never knew existed, including calling upon their Super Samurai forms.


Along with new suits and weapons, the Super Samurai upgrade also gave the eponymous Power Rangers new Zords and Zord configurations to experiment with throughout their numerous adventures. Of course, the foes they had to face off against, like the dreaded Serrator, were stronger than those the Samurai Rangers had previously defeated, although that doesn’t mean that the heroes’ enemies were near a match for them.

6 The Zeo Rangers Were Always Growing Stronger

The Zeo Rangers, pose with their weapons, from Power Rangers Zeo.

  • By harnessing the power of the Zeo Crystal, the Zeo Rangers naturally grew in power over time.
  • The Zeo Rangers repeatedly defeated King Mondo, a direct underling of Dark Specter.


Unlike many Ranger teams, the Zeo Rangers were almost all veterans when they received their powers. Tommy, Zeo Red, had been a Ranger for three years; Jason, Adam and Rocky, Zeo Gold, Zeo Green, and Zeo Blue, respectively, had been Rangers for a year and a half, and Kat, Zeo Pink, had been a ranger for half a year. Only Tanya, Zeo Yellow, was inexperienced.

Not only are the Zeo Rangers one of the most seasoned teams, but they have one of the greatest power sources in Power Rangers, the Zeo Crystal. Hidden away long ago to keep it out of the hands of evil, the Zeo Crystal instills power that not only dwarfs the Mighty Morphin powers, but that is always increasing. The strongest Zeo Ranger is thus the original Gold Ranger, Trey of Triforia, who was a Ranger long before any of the others. Whereas Tommy failed to defeat Lord Zedd during their encounter in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, the Zeo Rangers repeatedly defeated his equal, King Mondo, in Power Rangers Zeo.


5 The Space Rangers Saved the Entire Universe

The Space Rangers, from Power Rangers In Space, pose aboard the Astro Megaship.

  • The Space Rangers defeated the United Alliance of Evil.
  • Andros and Zhane were able to fight Dark Specter’s strongest generals by themselves.

The Space Rangers didn’t have a single rookie among them, with all six members of the team already experienced before coming together. While the origin of the Space powers is unknown, they prove to be stronger than the Mighty Morphin, Zeo, and Turbo powers that preceded them. Using these powers, the Space Rangers defeat the United Alliance of Evil, one of the greatest threats to the universe in all of Power Rangers.


The strongest Space ranger is Zhane, the Silver Ranger, who, with his Super Silverizer, gets the other Rangers out of jam after jam. The Red Space Ranger, Andros, is nearly as strong, as both KO-35 natives have been Rangers for years, and both are capable of fighting and defeating Astronema, Ecliptor, and Darkonda, all of whom are comparable in strength to Lord Zedd and King Mondo.

4 The Dino Fury Power Rangers had Some Astonishingly Powerful Members

The eponymous heroes of Power Rangers Dino Fury in uniform in the episode The Nemesis

  • Power Rangers Dino Fury introduced new, ancient lore to the long-running franchise
  • The heroes of Dino Fury include members who proved themselves millions of years ago

Although the Dino Fury Rangers fans know best have made their reputations off of protecting the world from the monstrous Sporix Beasts who would do it harm. Before these modern-day heroes, however, there was a team of ancient Dino Fury Rangers, and a couple of them even managed to survive into the present to help train the next generation of superpowered warriors.


The original Dino Fury Power Rangers were given their abilities directly by the Morphin Masters. As such, both team iterations draw their powers directly from the Morphin Grid. While that alone isn’t anything new, the long list of specialized weapons and Zords commanded by the Dino Fury Power Rangers are, especially the likes of the Cosmic Raptor Zords, which, when combined in various figurations with other Zords, form some of the strongest Megazords of all time.

3 The Mystic Force Rangers Are Master Sorcerers

  • Using their magic, the Mystic Force Rangers can do virtually anything.
  • Not only do the core Mystic Force Rangers possess their powered-up Legend Warrior modes, but they’re joined by three Ancient Mystics.

10 Weirdest Power Rangers Episodes, Ranked

Power Rangers has introduced many iconic and memorable storylines. But what are some of the weirdest moments in the series by far?

The Mystic Force Rangers are powerful sorcerers, with or without their Ranger powers. Despite being normal humans, Chip, Vida, Xander, and Madison, the Yellow, Pink, Green, and Blue Mystic Force Rangers can perform nearly any task with magic. The greatest spell they can access is the ability to transform into their zord forms, the Mystic Titans. These four are led by Nick, Mystic Force Red, the son of the Ancient Mystics, Udonna and Leanbow. Also known as The Light, Nick is the most powerful sorcerer ever.


The core Mystic Force Rangers can all upgrade themselves into Legend Mode, which brings their power closer to the level of the Ancient Mystics on their team, including Mystic Force White, Udonna, the Solaris Knight, Daggeron, and the Wolf Warrior, Leanbow. Using their full magical power, the Mystic Force Rangers defeat Octomus, the Supreme Master of the Underworld, who is the closest thing there is to a version of Satan in Power Rangers.

2 The Super Megaforce Rangers Have the Power of Every Past Ranger Team

  • The Super Megaforce Rangers can transform into any past team of Rangers.
  • The Super Megaforce Rangers defeated the largest army to ever invade Earth.

The Super Megaforce Rangers are one of the least popular teams in the franchise, but there’s no denying their power. After already fighting the forces of the Warstar Empire for a year as the Megaforce Rangers, Troy, Noah, Jake, Gia, and Emma are given the Ranger Keys by Gosei, giving them the ability to transform into any team of past Rangers. Anything previous Ranger teams can do, they can do as well.


The strongest member of the Super Megaforce Rangers is Orion, Super Megaforce Silver. Not only can Orion harness the power of all the previous Sixth Rangers, most of whom are the most powerful members of their respective teams, but he can access Gold Mold, imbuing him with their combined strength. The Super Megaforce Rangers are also notable for defeating the Armada and stopping the largest invasion of Earth the franchise has ever seen.

1 The Cosmic Fury Power Rangers Might Be the Strongest of All Time

Zayto with the Morphin Masters in Power Rangers Cosmic Fury

  • Power Rangers Cosmic Fury continued the Dinor Fury Power Rangers’ story in a whole new setting
  • One member of the Cosmic Fury team has become more than a Power Ranger


After taking on the forces of Void Knight, Void Queen, and their Sporix Beast army, the heroes of Power Rangers Dino Fury were left to contend with a recently returned and reinvigorated Lord Zedd. To even the playing field, the Dino Fury Rangers’ powers were upgraded to those of the Cosmic Fury Power Rangers, who got more than just some new suits to match their new interstellar mission.

While the core team still consisted of past Dino Fury Rangers Amelia, Zayto, Ollie, Izzy, Javie, and Aiyon, they gained their seventh member in the form of Izzy’s longtime love interest – Fern. And, while Fern was easily the least experienced member of the team, her teammates helped her catch up as quickly as possible, which was only made easier with the addition of all-new Cosmic Zords to take to the series’ largest battlefields.
