History
S.P.D.
Disappearance
The Pink Ranger and the rest of the A-Squad were supposedly lost on Gamma 4, but in reality they had betrayed Space Patrol Delta in preference of joining Emperor Gruumm by their own will. They actually attacked the colony of Gamma 4 and then sent a distress call, to which the B-Squad Rangers answered.
Once back at S.P.D., the A-Squad showed their true colors and took in Anubis Cruger as their prisoner to Gruumm. She and the A-Squad then called out the B-Squad Rangers and did battle with them.
Betrayal
Throughout the battle, she and the A-Squad Rangers were confident they could defeat the "second choice" B-Squad, and were winning at first. She fought Syd for most of the battle, since they both were Pink Rangers. After Jack Landors and the others used their S.W.A.T. Mode, however, they were able to beat A-Squad.
This then led to a Zord battle, which the A-Squad lost to the S.W.A.T. Megazord, but not before they destroyed the B-Squad's Delta Squad Megazord. Following this, they were arrested and the A-Squad position was retired after a vote from the B-Squad.
HyperForce
The A-Squad Pink Ranger and the other A-Squad Rangers were briefly freed from their prison on planet Y37 by the Alliance in an attempt to recruit them in 2027, but later she and the other A-Squad Rangers are free from their imprisonment by "The Leader".
Later, the A-Squad infiltrates the watchtower and harasses the guard, the HyperForce Rangers discuss the best way to infiltrate the facility. Ignoring the conversation, Vesper throws caution to the wind and lets out the battle cry of "Leeroy Jenkins", Vesper uses one of her bombs to injure the A-Squad. The A-Squad Rangers attempt to retaliate, but are blinded by the smoke. Using the smoke cloud from the exploded bomb to their advantage, Chloe uses another whirlwind attack to dispatch of A-Squad Pink and A-Squad Yellow as an unknown S.P.D. Green Ranger shows up responding to the facility's distress signal.
The A-Squad Rangers are recaptured by Lina Song the then current S.P.D. Green and the HyperForce Rangers and the unnamed S.P.D. Green Ranger contains the five A-Squad Rangers in cards. TV STORY-Homecoming

Notes
- She is the second Pink Ranger that doesn't wear a skirt, the first being Sydney Drew, the S.P.D. B-Squad Pink Ranger.
- The helmets for A-Squad were recycled helmets from Power Rangers in Space.
- Motoko Nagino, A-Squad Pink's actress, also served as her stunt actress during battles. Nagino is the wife of Koichi Sakamoto, long-time PR stunt coordinator and executive producer, and she has served as in-suit stunt actress for quite a few female Rangers during the Disney era.
- Like the other A-Squad Rangers, she is to date the only Pink Ranger to willingly turn evil.
- This Ranger was given the name 'Rachel' by a rangerboard user 'Merlin'. Supposedly, the name is accepted in general fandom[1].
- In Power Rangers HyperForce, Malika Lim planned to establish the fan-names as canon, but did not get the chance to do so.
