List of Mutations in Power Rangers: Dino Thunder
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This list contains the monsters seen in Power Rangers: Dino Thunder. These monsters are known as "Mutations" and can be made from the DNA of an animal, a plant, and a machine. There are a few monsters that aren't made from the DNAs that were just listed. To make a mutation grow, Mesogog activated what he called the "Hydro-Regenerator", which would cause the skies to turn dark and rain to fall, and the rain would revive the monster as a giant.

Real-life versions of them befriended Lothor while he was in the Abyss of Evil and were brought out with him. The paintbrush-wielding general was shown to have the ability to create monsters by painting them to life and was the one who created Ka-Ching. The real-life versions never spoke, only grunted, growled and laughed wickedly. They proved to be powerful enemies, the paintbrush-wielding general had the ability to create powerful streams of electricity from his paintbrush/staff, while the golden-horned general could shoot lasers from what appeared to be its' one red eye. Despite their combat prowess they are defeated (but not shown to be completely destroyed) by the Battlizer fire of the Red Wind Ranger and Triassic Ranger. Since they are never seen again, it is presumbed that they were in fact destroyed in this battle. They were based of Mikela and Voffa.
NOTE: These villains names come from an interview with Executive Producer Douglas Sloan.

He also had a pair of extendable black wings and kidnapped the Dinozords. He proved to be strong enough to defeat the Rangers, it wasn't until the Shield of Triumph was activated and Conner became the Triassic Ranger that the White Terrorsaurus was destroyed.
