- ―Red Shadow Guard I’s first word.[src]
Red Shadow Guard I is a red and white Rhino Beetle-type Red Shadow Guard and one of two Red Shadow Guards who served Grizzaka. He, along with Red Shadow Guard II, serves as one of the two main antagonists for the episode "No 'I' in Leader".
History[]
After taking over Dai Shi's Palace, Grizzaka used his Zocato Power to revive two Red Shadow Guards. Just like the two previous Shadow Guards, they used the battle styles of Rhino Beetle and Stag Beetle (this guard using the former). Grizzaka ordered them to attack Ocean Bluff and destroy the Power Rangers.
They fought the four Rangers, with this Guard taking on Casey and Theo, and were winning, but then they were forced to retreat when RJ hit them with a devastating Wolf Beam.
They later returned and fought the Rangers for the second time. At first they fought Theo and Lily, and were winning, but then Casey and RJ arrived. When the Guards were about to finish the Rangers, Casey deflected the blast with satellite dish. The Rangers morphed into Jungle Master Mode and defeated the Red Shadow Guards with a combined Wolf Beam and Claw Cannon attack.
Grizzaka used the power of Zocato and enlarged them. In the giant battle, they fought the Jungle Master Megazord and Wolf Zord and the Rangers were losing, until RJ summoned the Tiger and Jaguar Zords and formed the Wolf Pride Megazord. With the Rangers combined might. they combined their powers to overpower the monsters with kicks from the Wolf Pride Megazord taking this one down and the Jungle Master Megazord wrestling the other away. They then combined their strength to destroy both Red Shadow Guards. This particular guard was destroyed by the Wolf Pride Megazord's Spin Fury which turned him to stone and he was obliterated.

In the final battle Red Shadow Guards were revived by Dai Shi, but were destroyed by Master Rilla. TV STORY-Now the Final Fury
Personality[]
Just like their predecessors, the Red Shadow Guards were dark and evil monsters. They also talk unlike their predecessors, although they are both faithful to Grizzaka rather than Dai Shi.
Powers and Abilities[]
Powers[]
- Teleportation: Both Shadow Guards are able to teleport themselves by appearing to disintegrate their bodies.
- Shoulder Laser: This Shadow Guard can fire a massive red energy laser from his shoulders although this had no effect on Casey in Jungle Master Mode.
Abilities[]
- Superhuman Strength: This Shadow Guard was strong enough to force Casey up a stairway with little force and send the three main flying back into some debris with a light shove of his staff. After taking Lily down during the second battle, a single swing of his staff was powerful enough to obliterate a massive slab of concrete although she managed to roll away from the attack. Whilst he was a giant, and with help from his partner, was strong enough to deflect the Wolf Zord's Spin Fury attack with just their staffs.
- Durability: When the Rangers attempted their first team attack, they took a massive hit from RJ's Wolf Beam but were barely fazed and he took a devastating Shark Saber Slash/energized fist and leg combo attacks but barely stumbled as well as a devastating stab to the chest from Casey in Jungle Master Mode but survived that as well. His most impressive show of durability however was when he took a full on hit from Casey's Strike Rider.
- Skilled Fighter: This particular Shadow Guard was able to fight both Theo and Casey simultaneously as well as defeat both of them with inhuman ease.
- Agility: This Shadow Guard was able to dodge multiple slashes from Lily's Jungle Bo with ease.
Weaknesses[]

Arsenal[]
- Staffs: Both Shadow Guards wield massive red staffs with massive, razor sharp emblems on the end to stab and pin his enemies with.
- Energy Blasts: The Shadow's Guard's staff can fire blue energy blasts, as seen in the second battle when it sent Lily flying through the air. When combined with his partner's attack, this may have finished off Theo and Lily altogether had Casey not intervened.
- Energy Empowerment: As seen when he fought Lily after that devastating blast, this Shadow Guard is able to charge his staff up with white energy to swing it at full force. It was powerful enough to take Lily right out of the air and demorph her.

Notes[]
- This Shadow Guard and his partner are amongst the most powerful monster in Jungle Fury, overwhelming all four (then current) Rangers, taking them down with devastating attacks, taking RJ's signature finishing move without a scratch, requiring the combination of two finishing moves and incredible teamwork to defeat, defeating both a Megazord and a very powerful Zord with ease, and taking the power of two Megazords to destroy.
- This power level appears to have lessened by the finale, only needing one Pai Zhuq master to defeat him.
- However, it is unclear whether this was because of a drop in power (caused by the resurrection) or the Jungle Master either being more powerful or more experienced than them.
- This power level appears to have lessened by the finale, only needing one Pai Zhuq master to defeat him.
- He is one of the only Shadow Guards who can talk.
- The shoulder blast performed by this Shadow Guard against Casey is similar to the one performed by the Black Shadow Guard against the Jungle Master Megazord two episodes prior.
