Notes

  • Although the Psycho Rangers must fight with their counterparts of the same color to take their energy, when they were revived in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy, Psycho Black was shown to be satisfied with the idea of fighting a Green Ranger instead (as the Galaxy Rangers did not have a Black). This could suggest a link with Black and Green Power Ranger energies being the same or similar. This is further suggested in Power Rangers Super Megaforce where the Super Mega Mode for Megaforce Black is green for some reason.
  • Unlike the other Psycho Rangers, Psycho Black's "collar" is gold instead of white.
  • Psycho Black's monster form is the only one to have never appeared in original American footage.
  • Psycho Black is one of the two Psycho Rangers to be completely obedient and follow the orders of his superiors, the other is Psycho Yellow.
