We get a glimpse at several new things in this trailer including:

1. New footage of the Legendary Battle.
2. A full look at Orion's costume.
3. The full Super Megaforce team morph.

Well.... That was a thing....

What if Orion's planet is the origin of the Ranger Keys for Super Megaforce? He's where Gosei got the tech for the keys, and that's why he has one.

That's too creative, they'd never do it.

[Sentai]

I'm allowed to hope

I'm still holding out that all the Sentai Rangers - Maskman, Dairanger, Flashman - are from Orion's home planet, and have since died fighting the Armada and ultimately failed their world. It's all a little bit like a twelve year old's fanfiction I admit but I'm PUMPED for the show to finally have a plot, and a plot that is a lot darker than the sentai equivalent.

Yeah I am holding out for that too.

Orion did say that "This Planet won't lose it's Protecters to!"

A since Gai's flashback footage isn't that usable, a scene of the spirits of Ryu Ranger, Mask Red and Flash Red - the protectors of his world - handing across the Silver Morpher and Key to Orion would explain where his powers came from.

I think you're going to be extremely disappointed if you think that's going to happen. Orion hasn't given any impression that there's going to be a sudden dark turn to Super Megaforce, even if Orion's revenge thing lasts more then next episode (which I doubt), that's still just exactly the same as Ahim's back-story.

I admit that Silver Lining's Part 1 was better then the abysmal first 6 episodes, but I feel people are really jumping the gun here just because Super Megaforce managed one average episode. I think that within 2 episodes we'll be overloaded with Anvilicious scenes about friendship and teamwork and Orion's vengeance will all be forgotten by the end of the Gold Mode episode(9). Maybe, maybe if we're lucky Zatsurig will have been the destroyer of Orion's planet and they'll re-film Ahim's vengeance scene for Orion, but I honestly cannot see anything like that coming out of Super Megaforce.

So here's my theories:

-Don's jealousy of Gai will be localised as Jake being jealous of Gia crushing on Orion
-Gosei will give Orion the sixth Ranger keys and there will be no hand-waving as to why Gosei didn't give them to the others
-Orion will have any non-teamwork centric goals quickly crushed by badly written Troy dialogue
-Episode 10 (The Tensou spotlight that I'm dreading) will include the footage of them getting the Super Megaforce equivalent to the Gokai Galleon Buster. Instead of Don, Tensou will have built it.
-Robo Knight and Vrak will return for 2 episodes and have footage from Brajira and Dark Gosei Knight's episodes. Robo Knight has disappeared because Vrak took his offline body and is reprogramming it.
-The next episodes of the missing 4 will adapt Ahim's spotlight featuring the arrival Akudos Gill and Zatsurig. Damaras' 2-Parter and Insarn's death will also be condensed into these 2 episodes.
-The series finale will include the Legend War (duh) which will mostly be 199 Hero footage and will include the storm of the Gigant Horse and the last half of the Akudos Gill battle.
-Orion's ship will take the place of The Free Joker in the finale. The fact that The Free Joker is actually a modified Zangyack ship will be ignored and the footage left the same as per SMF standard.
-Alternatively, the missing 4 will be Akudos Gill's return and Zatsurig, Damaras getting a full episode and Insarn and Dairando's defeat will be in one episode, Ackudos Gill's defeat footage will be in Episode 19 while in Episode 20 Vrak takes over and the Legend War is against him, with Brajira being the final battle of the season. The Legendary Megazord would've been destroyed in the same way the Gokai Galleon was, so they'll suddenly remember all those neglected Megaforce Zords for the final fight. Robo Knight would have been searching the world for Rangers.
-Gia will reveal she likes Jake in some way in the finale (probably the final scene), but nobody will really care because, ugh, Gia.
-The Halloween special episode will use the Dairanger tribute footage, as it appears none of the previous episodes feature White Ranger, which is probably not ideal for Saban
-The Christmas special episode will be the Battle Fever tribute, with the scenes of Battle Fever cut. The Final Wave with Gokai Christmas and Battle Fever will be redone (This one's pretty obvious) OR cropped to cut out the Battle Fever members.
- Alternatively, the Christmas or Halloween episode will be an adaptation of the episode about the kid and the shooting star
- Bonus Ranger Keys will not be explained, but they will feature in the footage of Dairando's defeat
- Now that they have a sixth, any more Sentai-only footage outside of Dairanger will be just more mistakes rather then the Maskman and Flashman joke
- Unlike in Gokaiger, not every Power Ranger Key will have been used by the series' end (Not counting US-only)

I seem cynical, but I'm trying to be realistic. 11 episodes really doesn't give a lot of breathing room when we know that 8-9 are Silver-centric and 11-13 are filler while 14 is the RPM tribute and 15 is Vekar and Argus' big finish. That leaves 5 episodes for Akudos Gill, Damaras, Insarn, Dairando (who I assume is unavoidable due to footage) and Vrak to be dealt with plus the Legend War. I'm looking forward to comparing my theories to this once the show finishes!

Also, sorry, I have no idea what Insarn's name is in Super Megaforce. Has it ever been said?

Also, finally, but its a given:

-Despite the fact that Super Megaforce has started using the Gokaiger role-call with the gigantic flapping Pirate Flag, which makes the fact they're pirates even more obvious, there will never be any explanation or even hand-wave as to why they're all pirates or why Black became Green. Ever.

Levira.
