I remember that, but they had an explanation for that. They actually found the Ankylo Zord and created the Dino Charger, but for the Pachy Zord, Tyler randomly summoned it like they had the zord from the beginning.

Upon watching this episode I did realize that. When I made my statement earlier I hadn't seen the episode yet. Been out of town at HS Reunion. So I had to dvr it.

This was a great way to do a clip show, only behind RPM's episode for badassness.

I winced a bit when I realized it was a clip show, but at least it made sense with the plot. The Zord inconsistency, as was pointed out, was weird and might hurt the show down the road (though this is more the scheduling's fault).

Also graphite ranger episode was aired already in other country so yea this did not feel out of place with me when I watched

You know, for a clipshow special this wasn't bad. But when did they get the Pachy? I don't remember that happening yet.

Happens in the next episode. This was filmed out of order from the show's production - but it was SUPPOSED to air after Graphite's debut, but due to the Nick Teen Choice Awards it got shelved.

Ah, Nick screws the show up again. Aright, now I understand. Thanks Kick.

This was a tad peculiar, but definitely different.

- Why they praised a simple ghost sheet is...well it is a kids show, so...I'll let that slide.

- Reviving Duplicon is strange. It's as if they wanted to do a "mind-reading monster masquerade", but changed to a "one of the earlier monsters was specifically skilled in creating doppelgangers, so let's bring him back" plot. It does however offer a possible explanation as to how dead monsters are within the cells after their deaths (though this was explained and how some are just there to pad the set with "prisoners"). Given that monsters did return in Kyoryuger, this might be how this happens later. It also serves to make even the monsters more like characters instead of "throwaway, blow-up guys". By the way, will Duplicon get a return appearance?

- I was surprised as to which Ranger was fake. I was thinking Chase, and then Shelby looked suspicious, but...Koda!?! Oh, well...

- The Pachy Zord inclusion was, at the time, confusing. But if it is just a scheduling conflict, it's understandable.

- Memorella's counterpart had that "baby form" they definitely didn't use here. I was hoping that it would or could be used. Oh, well.

Not a bad episode, all together. A little off, especially since they didn't give Koda a little new fight footage against Memorella. Oh, well.

Duplicon being kept alive makes me think we may see him return in Super Charge for some reason or another.

I mean, got to do something with that Talon Ranger....
