In the case of Kakuranger, it could be an attempt at playing it both ways cause Power Rangers was already popular and they may have been taking that into consideration with God Kark (Crane Ninjazord), and the primary consideration for this hypothesis is the working theory that Zyu2 footage was being filmed almost simultaneously with Kakuranger (Zaigan of Super Sentai World uses the same Sword of Power prop used by RoboGoat, Primator is monkey-themed like God Sauder [Ape Ninjazord] and uses a functionally-similar dual-blade sword-staff weapon).

Kakuranger didn't have a pink ranger and the white ranger's mech was solidly white.

I'm talking about seasons that gave the PINK ranger a mostly-white mech while the other ranger's mechs were their actual colors. Turboranger, Carranger, Gingaman, GoGoFive, Boukenger, Shinkenger, Goseiger and Gokaiger all did this.

White Kark and Battle Kark were mostly white. God Kark had a pinkish neck, which is why they associated it with Kim and Kat in Mighty Morphin'. It takes the theory of predominantly white Pink Ranger Mecha and reverses it to accomplish something similar.
