His vast qualifications have been mentioned over and over for rounds so we all know them if we didn't before. Now it's just about being honest on who's best for the team but that didn't happen in grack finals either.

I will say I watched the first 3 episodes of Jungle Fury today and RJ does seem cool but I still don't get why people would think he is a better fit. Would our team of Gokaigers need someone to to train them in martial arts? They are all accomplished fighters already. What the team needs is someone that has knowledge and experience with multiple power sets. Tommy has kept the history of The Power and I think that is important. He will know right away how to use all the powers available to them.

Noone once said RJ would train them in martial arts.Compared to Tommy,RJ is a better fighter.Tommy knows martial arts,RJ is a Master of it.And yeah,I do think the team needs a mentor,but not one that teaches them how to fight.One that teaches them how to work as a team.RJ did that with the JF rangers.Tommy didn't bring the team together during MMPR,the whole team did.Tommy was basically a weapon to be pointed at the enemy.

I understand everyones love for Tommy,and the fact that he was the first sixth ranger,but that doesnt make him the best.Were judging this by him being in MMPR yet everyone brings up how many powers he's been through and how long he's been a ranger.This Tommy has a been a ranger twice.And if were going by your way and considering his whole power set,why didn't he win Grack? Why isn't the entire cast of Megaforce our Ultimate team? I mean they will have the keys.

That being said,I just see RJ being better for the ultimate team.He'd be a better fit.We can't just put a ranger in there cause "We think he's iconic".Being an iconic ranger doesnt help the team at all unless your trying to get into that special nightclub that noone can get into.People want Tommy for his celebrity status,I want RJ for his skills,leadership,and overall attitude.

Again, it is not stated that we are pulling young Tommy from the past but just that he is during these powers. It seems like a cheap trick to say that he wouldn't have his years of knowledge if he made this team and there is no rule or logic to support that. After the battle is over we would have modern Tommy wearing silver. All other rangers will have the years of experience after their seasons ended and so would Tommy. Just for the battle portion he wouldn't have access to Zeo, Turbo, or Dino Thunder. It's not about JDF's celebrity status but about the fact that a team like this using multiple powers would benefit most from Tommy. If you think RJ is somewhat stronger or just are burnt out on Tommy that is fine, bit be honest about it. You can vote whatever way you like but there is no need to put restrictions on Tommy that no one else in this tournament has had.

For the Last Time. This is Tommy has the White Ranger, period. Not future Tommy with the White Powers, or Tommy if he was posessed by the Phoenix Force, or Tommy has a Jedi Knight.

White Ranger Tommy.

You know it's getting to me when I'd happily rather vote for ERIC over Tommy.

Tommy should have won Grack, Eric or Ryan should have won Sixth. Lily and Jen are the only members of this team I'm actually happy with.

Then by your logic we should treat all other rangers the same way.Why didn't Billy win Blue then? He'd be insanely strong knowing that he went to an alien planet and probably learned so much from them.Kruger would probably be in charge of the entire universe's spd force by now.Bridge would've been in the Red category.

Basing it on Tommy of the present and not Tommy back then means we'd have to redo the whole tournament.Everyone was judged on their power set and abilities from when they had them,not current day if they still had them.

I'd also like to point out this argument was never made for any of the other MMPR.Also I gave this exact same argument for Tommy in Grack,that he was suited for it then because he had all that experience,but some people voted against him "cause he's better as sixth".

What about Carter? Who would you have as a red?

[Matrixbeast]

I'm happy with everyone.
Carter is awesome.
TJ is badass.
Lily is...Competent
Jen is headstrong
And Adam has a really cool dude for an actor.

Depends who counts, I think Sky would have made for a great Leader of the team but my favourite Red ever is probably Casey as he literally started as a true rookie and grew into a master. I think he achieved the most as a Red Ranger and showed the most for it as well which would make him for probably the best Red to lead the team.
