The Orb of Doom

The Orb of Doom was a magical orb that served as a major plot device in the episode "Rangers in Reverse".

History[]

After the destruction of Dischordia, the Orb of Doom is summoned by Master Vile to reverse time on Earth, causing the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to revert to powerless kids. Master Vile assigns Rito to place it at specific coordinates outside of Angel Grove. Zordon discovers that Master Vile has called for the Orb and informs the Rangers about it. He mentions that, if the orb is placed at the correct spot, it cannot be removed. When the Rangers attempt to stop Rito, Goldar and some Tenga Warriors show up to help him with some of the Tengas heading to a Carnival the Rangers are attending. Whilst Adam, Billy and Aisha go to stop the Tengas from attacking the carnival, the other three are outmatched and Rito puts the orb in the correct place, ironically after guessing it. Once placed, it emits a beam of light which shoots into the sky. Once Rito, Goldar and the Tengas leave, Tommy attempts to remove the orb only for it to attack him. Once Master Vile recites the first part of an incantation, the orb blows up as part of the process and the energy it released which causes the Earth to stop spinning. Master Vile then recites the second verse of the incantation whilst using some of his own powers and reverses the planet's rotation and the ages of the Earth's population.

Legacy[]

The Orb of Doom's effects turn back time to make everyone ten years younger (though the Rangers are able to remember everything thanks to their Ninja Power Coins). Although this is done in a bid to allow Master Vile and the Evil Space Aliens to take control of the Earth, their attack is thwarted by the arrival of the Aquitar Rangers.

The Rangers later use the Power Coins and one of Billy's inventions to return the latter to his normal age. However, before the other five can be restored, Goldar steals the Power Coins and Rita and Lord Zedd are able to vaporize the Power Coins. Tvicon TV STORY-Climb Every Fountain

The Orb of Doom's effects are later undone forever when the Zeo Crystal is reassembled in the Command Center shortly after the destruction of the Hydro Hog. However, the destruction of the Power Coins forces them to later adopt a new powerset. Tvicon TV STORY-Hogday Afternoon
