Yes, Shin, ZO, and J also debuted in the Heisei era (and most of Black RX aired after Hirohito's death and the end of the Showa period, too), but they aren't part of the series of shows that began with Kuuga. Honestly, they're pretty much just completely odd outliers that don't really fit in with either era of the franchise. But because Kuuga is the official start of the Heisei era, the 90s guys get grouped with the Showa Riders by default.

Yep.
