Production[]
The concept of the series was developed by CureKurogane after becoming exposed to the 2016 Netflix animated series, Voltron: Legendary Defender and then reading a fanfiction which was a crossover between the said series and Power Rangers and it sparked complete interest in making a story that had elements of Voltron, but with characters of different series who fight as the Power Rangers.
Story[]
Eons ago, there were five mystical jewels that travelled across the vast galaxies in five multicolored lights. Each jewel takes the form of five prescious gemstone, they represent the five elements of our universe. Those elements are fire, wind, water, lightning, and flowers, which the jewels manifest their powers within their light that glistened across the stars.
But also, these jewels were accompanied with five colossal crystallized robots that travelled in light speed. These robots take the form of five great animals: the lion, pegasus, dragon, eagle, and tiger, and they also possess the power of the jewel's element, and even the jewel itself. Legends say that these relics have protected the galaxies for thousands of years, and many of the planets have been protected by their luster from forces of darkness.
Both the jewels and the robots crash landed in the native planet of Altea, which were famously known for being the homeplanet of the legendary defender, Voltron. They were both discovered by the ancient Alteans and were facscinated by their illuminating power, only to have the robotic animals let out their cry, stating that they aren't a threat and the Alteans named them the Crystal Gems and the Gem Beasts. As the planet started to develop its advanced technology, the Crystal Gems remained under the protection of the first King of Altea while the Gem Beasts remained the guards of the Altean kingdom. Together, the Gem Beasts released their light across the planet with the aid of the Crystal Gems that illuminated the castle, which brought all of the people together to see the balance and essence grow within their planet.
But their light caught the attention of one person and became uncondtionally mesmerized by their light. His name was Gaaron, a being of Galran descent and he was taken aback on how the Alteans showed respect to the Crystal Gems and the Gem Beasts, who emit their power to keep the peace in its tact when its power can be used to conquer many galaxies with callous results. Gaaron was one of the first rulers' advisers and he realized that if anyone possesses the Crystal Gems, they will become linked to the Gem Beasts, having them under their control. Driven by this, he managed to gain access to where the Gems were and it caught the attention of the Gem Beasts, who let out their cries and the King catches him in the act, sensing the obsession and betrayal showing from his eyes. Feeling the anger and hurt, the King engages in a duel against Gaaron.
The confrontation lasted more than hours and Gaaron was left defeated and the king in victory. The king condemns him for his treason and was exiled from the planet, preventing him to come near the Crystal Gems or the Gem Beasts.
As the years passed, the Crystal Gems remained safe and the Gem Beasts continued on with their guard on Altea, as it started to reach its potential and its second King was crowned new ruler of Altea, who was given the Crystal Gems as the family heirloom to the Altean linage. After the coronation, he was given the task to protect the Gems and the Gem Beasts for they are endangered of falling into the wrong hands, and the new King took the oath.
But soon, a familiar faces enters the Altean atmosphere and it was none other than Gaaron himself for he had changed throughout the years. During his exile, he had become exposed to a great source of dark energy he stumbled upon on the planet he was banished to, and it granted him incredible strength and newly formed dark arts and he now has returned for his revenge on Altea.
Launching his attack on the castle, the new King of Altea rounded up many troops to battle against the Galran. But due to his new power, the soldiers didn't stand a chance and they were slaughtered in front of the natives, inflicting horror within them. When Gaaron stepped into the castle, he noticed the new King holding the Crystal Gems and demanded him to surrender them.
When the main pillar refused, Gaaron unleashed his dark power upon the castle which brought the attention of the Gem Beasts. Their cries were heard in echoes as Gaaron reached to his victory, defeating the King who kept the Crystal Gems under his protection. Just when he was about meet his demise, a loud booming male voice appeared out of nowhere.
“Use the power of the Gems to save your kingdom.”
Without any choice, the King exposed the Gems to Gaaron, releasing a great amount of energy which overpowered the Galran, hindering him from doing any more damage to the planet. But the victory had took a very bittesweet turn: many lives have been lost, most of the division was left in shambles and to add in with the fuel... the Crystal Gems and the Gem Beasts have vanished within the light. However, most people understood his decision and since then, the Alteans kept the memories of the Crystal Gems and the Gem Beasts alive, telling the stories on how they were found and became the main treasures of the planet. The King felt the happiness starting to rebuild again, and that the Crystal Gems and the Gem Beasts are now out in the galaxies safe from Gaaron's harm.
In the present day, one of the Gems were found after thousands of years of their absence. The Ruby Gem was ecountered in the planet Arus by Voltron Paladin, Keith for he and his Voltron team: Shiro, Pidge, Hunk, and Lance were celebrating their victory over Zarkon with Coran and Princess Allura. This caught the attention of Allura as she finds out about the Crystal Gems and their history, leaving the others in shock and confusion. But they were soon caught off guard, when the Castle of Lions were attacked by one of Gaaron's ships, for he has returned to claim the Crystal Gems and the Gem Beasts.
Another battle was ensued, for Keith and his team were stationed in their five Lions to form Voltron once again. But as the fight started, they didn't notice that Gaaron has become more powerful than he was when he first attacked Altea and it made the Ruby Gem emit more of its light. Because of this, this caused the ancient Galran to overpower the mighty robot, destroying it into oblivion, which forced the five Paladins to evacuate.
But before Gaaron unleashed another of his attacks, the Paladins were met with a loud roar. Revealing to be one of the Gem Beasts, the Ruby Lion. As it attacked many of Gaaron's new fleet, it started to bond with Keith, making him his new pilot, much to his shock. But their meeting was short lived for his friends were late caught in Gaaron's grasp and Allura tells Keith to protect the Ruby Gem and the Ruby Lion, forcing him to evacuate Arus, making Gaaron in pursuit. Only to have Keith escape Gaaron and crash land onto Earth with Ruby Lion while his Ruby Gem started glowing in a bright light.
In the famous city of Angel Grove, California, four teenagers find the rest of the Crystal Gems and it caught the attention of Gaaron, for he has arrived at the Solar System and sent his troops along with Zarkon's former commander Sendak to retrieve the Gems and the Gem Beasts. Able to locate their elements, Sendak encounters the teenagers and demanded that the Gems should be handed to him before unleashing an attack on them. But before meeting their demise, Keith comes to the rescue and then suddenly... the five Crystal Gems started to synchronize together, giving the five a new power from their light and elemental abilities.
And that power is five morphers that allows them to tap into the Gems' power and morph to the legendary superhero team: the Power Rangers!
