Back in the day, who thought Zordon created the Power Coins? What about Ninjors links

[ryouga]

I know this sort of thing will of come up many times but I remember back in Season 3 thinking it was a retcon as it seemed implied before that it was Zordon who did so especially with him creating Tommy's powers

Even at the time though I knew it was just a way to create new powers so as if to say if they lost powers again he cant just whip up new ones, shame that is what he really did once or twice(Zeo he created morphers and some sort of link, Turbo linked to turbo grid which was a extension of Morphin Grid)

And as for Ninjor, I do not think it was outright stated but I assumed Ninjor was linked to the Aquitar rangers powers since they seemed to be ninjas too, and the Shogunzords were either created for them too or some early joint project.

I know the Ninjor link has been discussed before though.

[MattEmily]

It was an interesting theory. I know back in the day that I definitely thought Zordon had created the Power Coins but there wasn't much proof to go along with that as far as I'm aware of.

Ninjor did have a connection to the Alien Rangers but whether he gave them their powers is unknown. Cestro did state however that Ninjor gave them their Battle Borgs.

[Alpha 5]

I think even in early material like books and magazines. they usualy go with Zordon found the coins.

[Chief]

Speaking of this, did they ever explain how Rita obtained the sixth coin in MMPR season 1?

[Rangermon]

Could Ninjor not have made the coins, while Zordon is the one who put whatever Dino Powers into the coins. When Rita and Zedd, for whatever reason, played that game with them - Rita won the 6th coin and Zordon won the others. After that, did they just randomly keep fighting until they sealed each other away? I've always been confused as to why they would stop fighting to play haha.

[Mr. CD]

If I remember correctly, it was to decide who would get put into the space dumpster. Zordon cheated to win, but Rita quickly put him in the time warp at the time of sealing.

[Alpha 5]

I thought it was to decide who would rule the universe speaking of is the fan club video cannon

[Chief]

They need to release a book of Power Rangers lore. What an awesome and confusing read that would be.

I Always wonder more about the Green Power coin, since follows in Rita hands

[ryouga]

I assume for Tommys coin either Rita just won that single coin, or managed to steal it just before being sealed or Zordon knew of a prophecy that it would be 5 on a team and 6 later so let her take it.

[Jiemusu]

An annual I have, in it's backstory section, referred to the green ranger coin as an 'ancient coin', that happened to be in Rita's hands. But it made me think, that referring to it as ancient meant that it was much older than the main six.

I've always just gone with the green ranger being a prototype ranger, with the main five being the final product. And I reckon Rita (well, Zedd probably...) stole the green ranger coin at some point, possibly before the main five were finalized. Meaning Rita was the first to have a power coin in her possession before Zordon. Then Zordon either found, or was given the rest of the coins when they were finished.

Presumably they weren't activated, because of that whole thing with it needing teenagers with attitude, or something. Which wouldn't happen until at least the 60s, with the whole post-world war 'flower power' freedom thing. Prior to that, teenagers didn't really exist, children just went straight to adulthood, and tradition back then left little room for 'attitude'.

What bothered me was the white ranger coin. It's heavily implied that Zordon created the white ranger, but it's never said that he created the Tigerzord or Saba, meaning they had possibly been around prior. But because of the radically different design in the white ranger costume, the in universe reason could possibly amount to Zordon having creative control over it. I'm torn on that front.

[Thrax]

Ninjor created the Power coins with the helps of Zeo Crystal Power, since it is a Power Source always becames stronger could works...

I believe it was either Zordon or Alpha 5 that stated that they had found the Power Coins along with the map to Ninjor's Temple.

You do have a point with the White Ranger powers, it would lead me to believe that you could be correct with the Tigerzord just always being around along with Saba but neither one had a suitable power source to a Power Ranger at the time.

Thrax, it was never stated that Ninjor wound up using the Zeo Crystal.

[PRangerX]

i assumed Zordon created the coins at first. But season 3 revealed that Ninjor created the coins. Zordon and Alpha found five of them. And of course we know that Rita got the sixth.

Zordon and Alpha were able to create the White Ranger Powers but it was very dangerous. And not something they could easily do again with the dino powers. The Zeo Powers were different. They just made morphers to access both the zeo powers and morphing grid.Same wih Turbo but with some power source on eltar instead of the Zeo Crystal.

Ninjor probably did create the Alien Ranger Powers. And you're Shotgun theorh is very plausible.

[MattEmily]

I did think Zordon had created the Power Coins at first but that was proven to be untrue because of Ninjor.

There's no confirmation in regards to the Alien Rangers' powers but Ninjor did have a link to the Alien Rangers since he gave them their Battle Borgs.

actually we don't know how many Zordon and Alpha found since they never said it's possible they found all 6 but lost the Dragonzord Coin to Rita.
