 This article is about a list of monsters in Power Rangers RPM.
|
Attack Bots are the monsters of RPM and servants of the Venjix Computer Network. They're similar to the Machine Empire monsters in Zeo. They are separated into various generations when naming said Attack Bot. While these mindless robots bent on chaos and destruction aren't capable of actual speech, they do have different vocal effects (some do have speech capabilities, however).
When Venjix (or one of his underlings) gives the order to "Begin the download, now!", this remotely downloads a growth program into the Attack Bot (indicated by the walls of the Venjix Palace's inner chamber shining with energy, and the Venjix symbol on a nearby wall to flash), causing it to grow to massive size. (Many of these growths show the inner workings of the Attack Bot as this process occurs, which also shows some sort of green liquid -- presumably some sort of revitalizing fuel -- being pumped through before the Attack Bot revives.) This process can also be initiated on the battlefield itself.

Notes
- Out of all of the Barbaric Machine Beasts and assorted monsters from Go-Onger, they were just 10 monsters that went unused in RPM. In order of appearance;
- Water Pollution Prince Nigorl zo Arelunbra went unused due to almost all of his footage involving unmorphed Go-Onger Yellow and Silver.
- However, the Knight Bot was derived from footage of his henchman Water Pollution Machine Knight Uzumaquixote.
- Bakki went unused due to the fact that he fought in a thick urban forest which would make no sense with RPM's post-apocalyptic setting.
- Lumbiaco went unused because it was defeated by unmorphed women and destroyed with help from Kegalesia (a blatantly Japanese woman and the equivalent of Tenaya) and not in the traditional Zord battle or blaster segment.
- Also, several shots showed the villains with the Rangers celebrating its defeat despite the fact that they would have been the ones to send it.
- Rairaiken and Gokugokumaru were unused due to the movie where they came from going unadapted because it was very clearly set in Feudal Japan.
- The production crew wouldn't even be able to sort the issue out like they did in the Power Rangers S.P.D. episode "Samurai since Japan doesn't exist in the RPM Dimension.
- Engine Banki was unused because because too much of his time was spent in vehicle form being piloted by Kegaleshia.
- Shower Banki was unused because the water faucet on Shower Banki's breasts that heavily resembled breasts and she was very sexualized as a whole.
- Yatai Banki was unused because his appearance had a lot of Japanese-style imagery which would not fit in an American setting.
- Bin Banki was unused because his goofy design didn't fit the serious atmosphere of Power Rangers RPM.
- Nunchuck Banki was unused because the RPM & Jungle Fury team-up was not adapted due to RPM taking place in another dimension than most of the franchise.
- Water Pollution Prince Nigorl zo Arelunbra went unused due to almost all of his footage involving unmorphed Go-Onger Yellow and Silver.
