Here's my take on the Power Rangers Challenge.

Favorite series: SPD. I'll admit that the series is far from perfect, it abuses from explosions, a few characters didn't got that much development, and there are better seasons out there, with all of that being said, I still love this season, from having good developed characters, having a good balance between exploring the organization of rangers, developing both rangers and important members of the organization, and giving entertaining stories to all of the previously mentioned characters, and having memorable moments, resulting in an overall great addition to the entire franchise.

Favorite red ranger: Andros. One of the main reasons why I loved him as both a ranger and as a character is how he evolves as both a team member and as a leader, at first, he was just trying to protect the other rangers, and just give them the Space powers when he discovered their backstory in fighting evil, as the series progresses, he stars to bond with the rest of the rangers, discovers how good the earth is, and decides to fullfill his destiny as trying to save his sister and get rid of the Alliance of Evil once and for all, as the series ends, he becomes a better ranger, a better character, and a better leader.

Favorite blue ranger: Sky. Arguably my favorite character from SPD besides Doggie, and for the same reasons as both Andros and Doggie, he starts as a jerkass that believes he's the best qualified for becoming the red ranger due to the backstory of being the son of the previous red ranger, eventually, he starts to progress as a character, accepts to be the second in command, and at the end of the series, as a reward for everything he overcame, he becomes the red ranger at the end of the series, and a better leader and person as a result.

Favorite yellow ranger: Kira. Ok, first of all, this was a very difficult choice, as I was between Trini from the comics, Ashley, Dustin, Chip, Lily and Summer. However, the main reason why I choose Kira is because of her interactions with the rest of the cast, being a guitarist with a dream of becoming a profesional singer, meeting in detention her future partners Conner and Ethan, eventually developing a friendship with both of them, meets Trent as a naive newcomer who secretly was one of her enemies, but eventually they became a couple, and meets Tommy as her professor, yet they would bond as a good teacher-student relationship, both in school and being rangers.

Favorite pink ranger: Kendrix. One of my favorite characters in a season where I overall like all the main characters, in her case, her personality of being a genius who can defend herself, her interactions with the rest of the cast, her heroic sacrifice which is one of the most tearjerking moments in all the franchise, and her will to fullfill the job and save her friends even when she was dead (yeah, that was kind of a spoiler btw) makes her my favorite pink ranger and overall one of the best female rangers in all the franchise.

Favorite green and black ranger: Ziggy and Dillon respectively. Boy, how I love this pairing, alongside Dr. K, their my favorite RPM main characters, their interactions were wold, considering how functional they develop the classical pairing of naive geeky and strong stoic respectively, as well as how both of them worked as individual rangers and characters, the former being the last of the first five in join thanks to being naive yet snarky, and eventually earning his spot in the green ranger, while in Dillon's case, let's just say he´s the arguably the main character despite being the black ranger, and easily one of the best developed black rangers alongside Dr. O, Adam and Zack in the comics, and while I'll admit that the sister twist was already used in In Space (and was done way better), I think it still worked and was a decent conclusion to the character.

Favorite sixth ranger: Merrick. While I'll admit that there are some sixth ranger with better development, I still consider Merrick as my favorite due to its backstory as being bond with Zen-Aku thanks to Master Org schemes, which results in being freed of Zen-Aku the by the Wild Force rangers and eventually joining as their sixth ranger, another reason why I love him is due to his interactions not only with Zen-Aku as both of them have to live with the fact that both of them were bonded together for more than 3000 years, but also with the rest of the main cast, as he starts being a stoic loneler, yet slowly starts to becoming a team member, resulting in fighting with them in order to save the Animarium and the whole planet earth against Master Org in the finale.

Favorite megazord: The Titan Megazord from Mystic Force. This is my personal opinion, I think it is the effective way in which he manages to combine the Ranger robots and how he complements himself with the giant M on his chest and the greatness in the armament that I love about the megazord, that being said, even I cant ignore the elephant in the room, and while I don't mind the witch hat at all, I just can't understand why they belive having some elf ears alongside the hat would make the design cooler at all.

Favorite power up: SPD SWAT Mode. I love it thanks to a simple but effective design, by adding police vests to a squad of cadets, maintaining said simplicity but applying consistency that gets established to the environment of the world that the season is taking place, having power up credibility.

Favorite battlizer: Time force Battlizer.
manages to have extra weapons that demonstrate power (such as a sword and armor) and within the series they manage to give a decent context to its inclusion, making its design justified, and not to mention power, making an attack somewhat simple but that manages to transmit great power that demonstrates its effectiveness.

Favorite Mentor: Doggie Kruger. Easily my favorite character from SPD, and one of the main reasons why I love the series, from having a rather sad backstory, having good character development, establishing a great bond with his students and because he's the first mentor to go out into battle as a Ranger (not counting Tommy, since he's had a history of fighting beforehand).

Favorite Villain: Ransik. Ok, I'll admit that he isn't completely sympathetic due to some issues involving his origin, his behavior toward his daughter and his minions, and some of his actions against humanity; with all of that being said, I still like him as both a villain and as a character; as a villain, he managed to give the Time Force rangers one heck of a fight, being a headache for all of them, and even being close to kill at least one of the rangers, as a character, he managed to redeem at the end and he gives himself to the Time Force in order to be judged for everything he did throughout the entire series, and he also had good development in the Time Force-Wild Force Team Up, which is why I love him.
