Operation Overdrive Ranger data 6: The Mercury Ranger


TYZONN
Tyzonn, sometimes called Ty for short, is an alien called a Mercurian (he is not from the planet Mercury, he is from Mercuria, as stated in the episode Home and Away). He was previously a member of the Intergalactic Emergency Responder Squad, a search and rescue team, alongside his fiancée Vella. During an unfortunate accident when his team was killed by the Fearcats after he sent them back into a collapsing cave, Tyzonn dedicated himself to tracking down the criminal group and bringing them to justice for their crimes.

He managed to track them to Earth, but his search was cut short when he was confronted by Moltor, who attacked Tyzonn and transformed him into a dragon-like monster. In exchange for his loyalty, he promised to turn him back to normal. However, Mack realized that he wasn't a villain, and the Rangers worked with him to retrieve the Parchment as well as the Touru Diamond. The power of the two Corona Aurora gems reverted Tyzonn back to his humanoid form afterwards. When the Fearcats attacked anew with extra power granted by Flurious, Tyzonn at first refused to join the other Rangers in battle due to the fear of causing the deaths of another group of friends. However, thanks to Ronny convincing him that his past experiences weren't his fault, he was able to move on, and took the powers of the Mercury Ranger to combat the Fearcats alongside his new team.

Being an alien, Tyzonn has had some problems adjusting to life on Earth - he annoyed Will by trying too hard to be like him. He's shown an interest in learning more about his team-mates, trying hard to find out about Rose. He grows a plant in his spare time.

When Crazar came along, she pulled a trick on Tyzonn making him believe she was his wife Vella, and that the events on Earth never occurred. After learning, during his battle with Crazar, that Vella was still alive, Tyzonn promised that after he completed the Ranger's mission, he would find his lost fiancé. After the final battle with Flurious was won, Tyzonn's search for Vella ended when Norg showed up at the mansion with Vella. It turned out that she was saved from the Chillers by Norg. Now that Tyzonn and Vella have reunited, they can continue their plans for the future.


Powers and Equipment
As a Mercurian, Tyzonn has the innate ability to transform his body into mercury; his primary weapon is the Drive Detector. He drives an unnamed Fire Truck Zord and controls the Rescue Runner Zords via remote. He is able to combine these 3 Zords to form the Flash Point Megazord. His Mercury Morpher enables him to summon any of the 10 Drive Max Zords.
