[edit] In Power Rangers Turbo

In the fictional Power Rangers universe, Alpha 6 is the next Alpha robot in the series of fully-sentient multifunctional automatons and the robot with an attitude--literally. He is put into operation along with the woman who never stops the questions, Dimitria, after Zordon and Alpha 5 go to the planet Eltar. Alpha 6 is first seen in the Power Rangers: Turbo episode "Shift into Turbo, Part III".

He talks a lot like the stereotypical New Yorker, and almost gets on everyone's nerves. However, Alpha is knowledgeable, and able to help the Rangers through various problems and adventures. He even helps to save the Phantom Ranger's life.

[edit] In Power Rangers In Space

During the explosion of the Power Chamber, his voice chip is damaged, making him speak gibberish and have reversed words. After following the Rangers into space and meeting up with the Astro Megaship, Alpha 6 gets a new voice circuit board from Andros, the alien from KO-35 and the Red Space Ranger. The new voice makes him sound a lot like Alpha 5 (even restoring the familiar expression of 'Ai-yi-yi'), only it sounds more female than male. During the installation of the new voice circuitry, Alpha is asked to describe his mission in life as a test. Alpha recites his mission as follows: "My mission is to protect the Power Rangers. And their quest: To protect the universe from the forces of evil. One goal, one team, known as the Power Rangers."

Alpha is instrumental in decrypting the Power Decoder which allows the Space Shuttle to combine with the Megaship to form the Astro Megazord. He also eventually locates the Mega Vehicles on Ganymede and at one time pilots the Astro Megazord with the help of the ship's sentinent computer, DECA. He also prevents Ecliptor from taking over the Astro Megaship.

[edit] In Power Rangers Lost Galaxy

After the adventures of Power Rangers in Space, Alpha 6 stays on the Megaship, which becomes a museum. Both Alpha and the Megaship become recommissioned by the soon-to-be Lost Galaxy Rangers when Scorpius begins attacking Mirinoi.

At the end of Power Rangers: Lost Galaxy, Alpha 6 ends up leaving the Astro Megaship after it starts its self-destruct mechanism. He then proceeds to live in peace on Mirinoi with the Lost Galaxy Rangers and the crew of Terra Venture.

[edit] In Power Rangers Operation Overdrive

Several years later, it is seen that Alpha 6, for some unknown reason, has returned from Mirinoi and has been stored as disconnected parts in a box inside a warehouse in Angel Grove. He is reconnected by Andrew Hartford on Adam Park's suggestion to help restore the Operation Overdrive Power Rangers' link back to the Morphing Grid in the Operation Overdrive teamup "Once a Ranger". This time, Alpha 6 is now as tall as the typical ranger and has yet another new voice, having a deeper robotic sounding tone. After Thrax is defeated, Adam recruits him as an employee at his new dojo. Exactly how Alpha 6, last seen on Mirinoi with the Galaxy Rangers, wound up dismantled in Angel Grove, is never explained. There are questions about his reference to Zordon, whom he was never seen encountering beyond a cameo in "Passing the Torch." However, when he was sent inside the Universal Morphing Grid to fix it in Once A Ranger, the first question he asked was, "Ay-yi-yi, what would Zordon do?"

Alpha's unexplained return mirrors the situation of long-time Power Rangers character Bulk.

[edit] Trivia

Alpha 6 has 3,004,700,903 individual circuit terminals inside him. (PRIS episode "From Out of Nowhere, Part II").
