Pachinko Head was a pachinko monster who served as the main antagonist of the episode " Rocky Just Wants to Have Fun".

History

When Rocky enjoys playing Ernie's new Pachinko game too much, Lord Zedd casts a spell on it which causes Rocky to have an unhealthy addiction to having fun. His plan is to leave Rocky so carefree that the others will be at such a significant disadvantage that Zedd can easily destroy them and conquer Earth. Zedd attacks them with the Putty Patrol after which he turns the game into Pachinko Head. Zedd creates his monster immediately in front of the Power Rangers who have just defeated the Putties. Pachinko Head turns Billy, Kimberly, and Aisha into softball-sized pachinko balls while Rocky is unable to focus on anything other than having fun. While Adam and Tommy dodge his attack, Pachinko Head and Rocky play improvised football before Adam jump kicks Pachinko Head down. Unfazed, the monster then turns Rocky and Adam pachinko balls just like the others, with Tommy the last Ranger standing. Before he can transform Tommy, the White Ranger distracts him with the frisbee that they used in their game, allowing Tommy to escape with the Ranger pachinko balls.

Tommy brings his transformed friends back to the Command Center and Alpha seeks out a way to revert the Rangers to their normal states. However, Pachinko Head has decided to visit the fairgrounds and is causing the rides to go haywire, so Tommy is forced to face him alone. Pachinko Head runs away to play hide and seek and manages to avoid Tommy. Realizing that his monster is doing nothing, Lord Zedd throws a Growth Bomb which Pachinko Head catches and detonates it. Tommy summons his White Tigerzord in Warrior Mode, but the monster defeats him with a devastating fireball blast. Meanwhile, Alpha finds a way to restore Rocky and revert him to his normal state, breaking Zedd's spell over him, and is sent to aid Tommy. Rocky summons his Red Dragon Thunderzord and engages Pachinko Head. Once the other Power Rangers are restored they form the Thunder Megazord, allowing the Rangers to defeat Pachinko Head. After his destruction, Pachinko Head reverts back to his original form as a pachink machine and returns to Ernie's bar.
