Sledge (Power Rangers Dino Charge)

Sledge is a male television extraterrestrial villain who features in Power Rangers.

Biography

Sledge was an alien bounty hunter who was over 65 million years old where since prehistoric times he operated as an outlaw. He gathered anything from asteroids to rare items as part of his living with him earning thousands of Space Bullion for his conquests. In time, he came to operate his own spacecraft and commanded his own crew where in time he met Poisandra with her becoming his beloved bride. At some point, he came to learn of the existence of the Energems and sought to acquire them but the ten relics were in possession of the Keeper. The Keeper attempted to hide from Sledge who pursued him across space with their chase taking them to Earth. One of his henchmen was dispatched to recover the gems after the Keeper's ship crashed on Earth but instead accidently returned with a bomb that detonated. The explosion damaged Sledge's ship and caused its collection of asteroids to become dislodged where they rained on the surface of the planet causing the mass extinction of the dinosaurs along with the Energems seemingly becoming lost. Sixty-five million years later, Sledge succeeds at returning to Earth's orbit, and releases Iceage to retrieve the Energems, only for his outlaw to be defeated, after several lost battles, by the newest generation of Power Rangers, who already possess five of the Energems.

Sledge later notices Scrapper trying to escape his ship and offers to personally chauffeur him to any galaxy he wants if he can get him an Energem. Despite being successful at finding the location of the Rangers' base, Tyler prevents him from returning to the ship to report his findings. The outlaw ends up defeated, despite Wrench's assistance, and is ultimately destroyed by the Dino Charge Megazord Tri-Stego Formation. Later, Sledge concedes to Fury's suggestion to send Slammer to cage the Rangers, forcefully sending his minion out of the warship to begin the mission immediately. As Poisandra complains about her stay at the ship and the lack of companionship, Wrench unveils his creation, Curio, as a gift to her, after which the happy-go-lucky duo merrily leaves, much to everyone else's relief, since Sledge mainly ordered his creation to get her off his back. Slammer fails due to Koda's interference and is eventually destroyed by the Dino Charge Megazord Stego-Raptor Formation.
