The '''Dark Rangers '''were a group of five punk bullies chosen to be [[Lord Zedd]]'s personal [[Evil Rangers]]. Both their civilian and morphed forms appeared exclusively in the two-part episode "[[Green No More]]".

==Overview==

==History==
[[File:Dark_Rangers_Unmorphed.PNG|250px|thumb|right|From left to right, Tina, Zane, Justin, Kristen, and Bobby.]]
[[Justin (Dark Ranger)|Justin]], [[Zane]], [[Bobby]], [[Tina]], and [[Kristen]] were the newest students of [[Angel Grove High School|Angel Grove High]] and were nasty enough to scare even [[Farkas Bulkmeier|Bulk]] and [[Eugene Skullovitch|Skull]]. As they ran into [[Tommy Oliver]], [[Billy Cranston]], and [[Zack Taylor]] after sending [[Bulk and Skull]] rolling towards them in garbage cans, the Rangers were warned of their newest threats. The bullies thought Angel Grove should belong to them, and that was the special reason that [[Lord Zedd]] chose them to be his Dark Rangers. They come across Billy and Zack again when they're hanging out with [[Jason Lee Scott]], and [[Kimberly Ann Hart]], at the beach. Before they could fight each other, Zedd beamed the bullies to the Otherworld. Soon after the [[Green Crystal]] was filled, the gang finally became the Dark Rangers. The Power Rangers tried to tell them the truth about what Zedd would do, but the Dark Rangers didn't listen. After Tommy destroyed the crystal, their powers were gone and they disappeared. They returned to Angel Grove and had no memories of what happened with Zedd. The Power Rangers showed them some kindness and they became friends.

In winter of 1995, [[Marvel Comics]] released their third issue of their [[Ninja Rangers (MMPR)|Ninja Rangers]] [[Power Rangers (Marvel Comics)|comic series]]. In this issue, it was revealed that Lord Zedd had been secretly gathering the energy of the old [[Power Coins|Dino Coins]] to create his own Ranger team and gain control of the rebuilt [[Thunderzords]].&nbsp; Unfortunately, [[Angel Grove]]'s talent pool was too small for him, so he chose five criminals from around the world to take on the role of his Dark Rangers:
*[[Farai Jukwa]] - A bully from Zimbabwe.
*[[Osamu Tezuka]] - A looter from Japan.
*[[Stanford Winner]] - An avaricious man from the United States.
*[[Nelida Valensisi]] - A gang member from Columbia.
*[[Marie-Claire le Monde]] - A pickpocket from France.
Their morphed forms resembled the good Rangers' original morphed form under the Dino Coins. Following Zedd's orders, they called on the [[Thunder Megazord (Mighty Morphin)|Thunder Megazord]] and went to the Ninja Rangers' location, forcing them to call the [[Ninja Megazord]] and [[White Ninja Falconzord]]. When the Rangers were about to form the Ninja Megafalconzord, the [[Tigerzord]] showed up at the scene of the battle. However, once the [[White Ninja Falconzord#Ninja MegaFalconzord|Ninja MegaFalconzord]] was formed, the Tigerzord took off with the Thunder Megazord, ending the issue. It was never revealed who the pilot of the Tigerzord was, or if it even had a pilot at all, and the Dark Rangers weren't mentioned or shown again.

''to be added''

===Design===
*The Dark Ranger Suits are re-colored [[Z Putty Patrollers|Z-Putty]] suits with the Z symbols removed.

===Etymology===
*The first letter of each of the original Dark Ranger's name is the same as their Power Ranger counterpart.

==Notes==
*Stunt coordinator [[Jeff Pruitt]] once stated that a Dark Rangers battle was planned, but was scrapped when the suits proved to be too low quality for what was desired.
*Only Tina is named on-screen when she shakes hands with the Ranger teens in the second part of "Green No More." The Red and Black Dark Rangers are identified as Justin and Zane in closed captioning. The original shooting script for the two "[[Green No More]]" episodes provides the names of the full team.

*In [[The Ninja Encounter]], the Hasper City champions and then [[Rocky DeSantos]], [[Adam Park]] and [[Aisha Campbell]] from [[Stone Canyon]] High School were candidates to be recruited as Lord Zedd's new set of Dark Rangers, but the first group wasn't strong enough, and the second group was saved by the Power Rangers.
*In [[A Monster of Global Proportions]], Zedd tried again with the six [[Peace Conference|World Teen Summit]] representatives from South Africa, China, Russia, Israel, Australia and Mexico as his new set of Dark Rangers, but that plan failed as well.
