Power Rangers Beast Morphers


Power Rangers Beast Morphers are the twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh seasons of the American children's television program Power Rangers, and the first in the series to be produced by Allspark, the entertainment division of Hasbro, Inc., as well as being the first in the franchise to have all toys manufactured and distributed by Hasbro. The seasons were produced using footage, costumes, and props from the 36th Japanese Super Sentai series Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters which aired in 2012. As a result, Beast Morphers marks the first time the television franchise has gone backwards to adapt a Super Sentai series that was previously skipped over, and also serving as a direct sequel to Power Rangers RPM. The first season premiered on Nickelodeon on March 2, 2019. The second season premiered on February 22, 2020.
Beast Morphers was originally to be produced by Saban Brands. During pre-production, Hasbro acquired the Power Rangers franchise and other entertainment assets from Saban Brands and the latter company subsequently closed on July 2, 2018.

Plot

Scientists in the city of Coral Harbor have discovered a way to convert the infinite-power of the Morphing Grid into a physical substance called "Morph-X", providing the city with a source of unlimited clean energy. To protect the city, a secret agency known as Grid Battleforce combines Morph-X with animal DNA to create a new team of Power Rangers. Now the Beast Morpher Rangers must defend the Morphin Grid from Evox, an evil sentient computer virus from another dimension and his evil avatar clones of original Beast Morphers candidates Blaze and Roxy, who were rendered comatose. After the three of them are transported to the Cyber Dimension, Evox, Cybervillain Blaze, and Cybervillain Roxy gain its de facto ruler Scrozzle as an ally as he helps them in their plan to return Evox to Earth.
In the second season, following his first major defeat, Evox possesses Mayor Daniels and plots to finish what he started with the help of Scrozzle, Scrozzle uses a machine to replenish the robotic avatars of Blaze and Roxy. However, once they learn of his return, the Beast Morpher Rangers jump back into action to stop him once-and-for all. Along the way, they uncover Evox's origins and receive help from new allies in their fight against evil.
