One of the most beautiful characters Power Rangers already broke the show's cardinal rule by being the Red Ranger in one season. This is an unwritten rule Power Rangers a universe where each team can only have one Red Ranger. The same can generally be said about all other colors, although there are a few more exceptions to these. But when it comes to the Red Rangers, most of all Power Rangers teams are associated with only one Ranger in Red. However, Eric Myers from Quantum Ranger The Power of Timebroke this trend.
released in 2001, The Power of Time was a groundbreaking season that raised the bar for the series and it showed Power Rangers can experiment with different genres and storylines. The show leaned heavily on sci-fi and told the story of a group of cops who travel from the distant future to the early 2000s to hunt down a mutant crime lord. The Power of Time was quite mature Power Rangers season and featured some of the best characters in the franchise, including Eric. Quantum Ranger played by his own rules and was a one man team.
Time Force was the first Power Rangers Team with two Red Rangers
Quantum Ranger's status as a Red Ranger was controversial
It's fair to say that Quantum Ranger operates separately from the main team for the most part The Power of Time was the first Power Rangers shows the presence of two Red Rangers as part of the main group of heroes. Eric Myers is never referred to as the Red Ranger The Power of Timebut it's hard not to think of him that way when his suit is all red. While Quantum Ranger's costume is quite different from Wesin's, it's still very much a Red Ranger costume.

Not much is known about how the Quantum Ranger powers came about, but the fact is that after Erik found the morpher and claimed his Zord, he became a self-controlled Ranger. Teamwork has always been an important theme The Power of Timein particular, Jen's team had to learn how to work with Wes, so it was very interesting to have the “lone wolf” Ranger in the season. The personal history between Wes and Eric made their dynamic even more compelling – they were two different Red Rangers.
Quantum Ranger was both Red and Sixth Ranger
Eric Myers has been out of the First Team
In Power Rangersthe color of the suit is sometimes not enough to determine what that Ranger represents for their team. For example, Tommy was the sixth Ranger when he rejoined the team MMPR As the White Ranger in season 2, he later became the leader of the team while using the same color. Likewise, though Rocky is almost half Red Ranger The mighty Morphinehe was never the leader of the team. For this reason it can be difficult to determine all the boxes a Ranger must check to be considered an actual Red Ranger.
There is a difference between wearing red and being a Red Ranger. For example, Crimson Thunder Ranger Hunter technically wore red Ninja Storm – even Shane referenced it “primary color”. However, Hunter can hardly be considered a Red Ranger. When you arrive The Power of TimeEric, there's not much reason to argue that he's not the Red Ranger. Interestingly, the Quantum Ranger could also be considered the sixth Ranger – an additional member of the team that was only introduced a few episodes into the show.
From a story perspective, Quantum Ranger acts more like a sixth Ranger than Red. The Red Rangers are associated with the position of team leader, with a few exceptions, but Quantum Ranger didn't even have a team. While Eric has never been a bad Ranger, he has clashed with Wes and the others a few times, which is the sixth Ranger trait. The fact is Quantum Ranger had the appearance of the Red Ranger and the story of the sixth Ranger made it incredibly cool.
Eternal Red confirmed Eric Myers' status as the Red Ranger
Quantum Ranger was one of the 10 Veteran Red Rangers
If “Forever Red” never happened Power Rangers fans will probably still be debating whether the Quantum Ranger is the Red Ranger or not. However, given that Eric Myers is one of the ten heroes assembled for the Forever Red crossover, there's no doubt that he's officially the Red Ranger. Power Rangers canon. A crossover special, “Forever Red”, was released in 2002 Power Rangers' 10th anniversary and saw Tommy and Andros assemble a team of 10 Red Rangers. All the Red Rangers on the show have returned by thenthe only exception is the second MMPR Red Ranger.
Assuming that
Ninja Storm
's Hunter cannot be considered the Red Ranger,
Power Rangers
there was never a situation like the one he was in
The Power of Time
again.
Although Steve Cardenas had plans to include Rocky in Forever Red, the fact is that Jason was the only one. MMPR Red Ranger in the crossover. In other words, If Eric hadn't been included, the Forever Red lineup would have consisted of nine Rangers instead of 10. Given that a 10-Ranger team sounds way cooler than a nine-hero team, it makes no sense that Quantum Ranger was cut. Regardless of the lore aspects, it was exciting to see Eric and Wes work together with the other Red Rangers.
Why Power Rangers Didn't Have 2 Red Rangers On The Same Team Again
The Closest To Him Was Ninja Storm's Crimson Thunder Ranger
Assuming that Ninja Storm's Hunter cannot be considered the Red Ranger, Power Rangers there was never a situation like the one he was in The Power of Time again. In Power Rangers SamuraiLauren Shiba briefly becomes a Red Ranger, but in doing so replaces her brother's place on the team. In Power Rangers Space RageAfter the team gains new powers, Amelia becomes the Red Ranger.
