Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue began on February 12, 2000 on Fox Kids television. Five new Power Rangers carry on the team tradition as the Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue team, dedicated to fighting evil and protecting good. Evil demons are threatening to make Mariner Bay their stronghold on Earth and the Power Rangers must battle the evil Diabolico and his monsters to protect the world. The Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue use all new Lightspeed Rescue Zords and weapons to battle Diabolico and keep the world safe.
Impus uses a cocoon to wreak havoc on the city. The Power Rangers fight the cocoon, but they are defeated by it. With Diabolico gone, Impus gets the Star Power which turns him into Prince Olympius and he hatches from the Olympus. Carter and Ryan have been separated from the other Power Rangers and Carter has to fight Prince Olympius, who knocks him out. The other Power Rangers are caught by Prince Olympius, who is weakened by the effort and goes to rest in the Skull Cavern. When Carter wakes up he goes to the Aquabase to get help from Captain Mitchell. Prince Olympius gets inside the city by pretending he is Chad. Carter goes to help Chad and brings him back to the Aquabase. Prince Olympius then turns into Kelsey and stops the search for the other Power Rangers. He steals Captain Mitchell's entry card by pretending to be Dana, then turns into Joel to use Ms. Fairweather's computer. Vypra and Jinxer make a monster to attack the Aquabase, but Carter and Ryan see them coming. They tell Ms. Fairweather, who has to fight off the pretend Joel and get the entry card. Carter and Ryan save Ms. Fairweather, then Ryan uses water on Prince Olympius to make him weaker. With his power lessened, the other Power Rangers are able to escape. Vypra, her minions, and the monster show up at the Aquabase and save Prince Olympius, then leave again with the monster staying. The Power Rangers use the V-Lancer to fight it and then it grows. The Power Rangers then use the Lightspeed SolarZord to destroy it.
The Commander called a meeting and told the Power Rangers that they had the day off to do whatever they
wanted. They all went to the beach to play and relax. Carter found the Commander and they started training. First Carter got his butt kicked, and then they started to go up a hill. They had just started talking when a monster appeared at the power plant, so they ran there. The monster destroyed the plant and some kids, who were on a field trip, got stuck in the power plant. The Power Rangers got there, then learned they had to go to the other power plant and destroy the monster. When they got back the Commander went back to save a girl who was still in the plant. Carter went in after them and he saw the Commander holding a broken pipe. Carter got the girl out but the Commander stayed behind holding a broken pipe together and the building blew up. The Power Rangers saw the Commander climbing down the side of the plant. Suddenly the monster grew back, then the Power Rangers fought and defeated the monster. Later Carter went and asked the Commander if he was his hero and he said yes.
Carter was driving with Joel when they saw a black cloudmass appear. They returned to the base and found out the planets were in a very rare alignment. That meant Queen Bansheera would be brought back and a ceremony was necessary to do so. The black cloud started blowing up buildings in a definite pattern and the Power Rangers had to go in and save them. Ryan went to stop the ceremony so Queen Bansheera couldn't be brought back, but he was captured by monsters. The rest of the Power Rangers went to save Ryan and they were winning, but then the monsters grew big. The Power Rangers used their Zords and defeated the monsters. They also defeated Queen Bansheera by stopping the ceremony. Ryan figured out that Queen Bansheera was there, but only half her body was there. He decided to go in search of a way to stop Queen Bansheera from totally getting there.
Joel's friend was looking through a telescope and he asked Joel to look through it. After he looked through it, Joel left. That night just before Joel's friend went to bed, he saw an asteroid heading towards Earth. He wrote down the velocity and trajectory of the asteroid. He called Joel, but Joel got into trouble so he came and got him. He sneaked into the computer room and wrote down everything. The Power Rangers went out in the MegaSolarZord to see what they could do. Olympus blocked out the sun, so the Power Rangers got a new Zord. They flew into space and planted some bombs which blew up the asteroid. They returned to Earth and celebrated. Joel's friend asked Ms. Fairweather on a date.
Vypra was trying to steal the Starlight Crystals and she managed to steal four of them. Kelsey went to get the
fifth one from her grandmother. After she got it, it was stolen from her by one of Vypra's monsters. Her grandmother was disappointed and told her to go away. Kelsey ran off by herself and found Vypra's base. She tried to take the crystals back but got captured instead. Suddenly her grandmother burst into the base with a fork lift and crashed the party. She fought everyone and got Kelsey free. Later Kelsey asked her grandmother what she was doing there and she told her she was saving the most important thing in her life, her granddaughter. Kelsey had to rush off to go save her friends and she did. Later Kelsey and her grandmother went rollerblading.
The Blue Ranger was defending the dojo against a monster with his sensei and they defeated the monster. The Blue Ranger went and trained. While he was training he heard fighting. When he looked to see what was going on, he saw a sensei teaching the monster how to fight. Afterward, the two of them walk off together and are really rude to the Blue Ranger. The sensei has been training the monster and teaching him him everything he knows. The monster's sensei betrays the Blue Ranger's sensei and runs off and attacks the people. The Power Rangers arrive, but lose the battle. The Blue Ranger goes and finds his sensei and they hurry off to the place were the monster is. They manage to destroy it, but it comes back. They use their Zords and destroy it for good this time.
Carter was riding a flying device that started crashing into the ground. He landed on the clouds, and then everything blanked out. He was really in the Lightspeed Rescue Base and it was all just a simulation. The next day at breakfast Carter appeared and then Kelsey appeared. She knocked some oatmeal on the ground and had to clean it up while Carter and Joel left to test the red cannon (which was the flying object). Carter got in the air and then he crashed onto the ground. He fixed it and then he went to help his fellow Power Rangers, but he was too late so they died on his way there. All of a sudden he went back in time. He went to bed after he found himself in the simulation chamber. The next morning he knew about everything and then he went to test it. This time he went to save his friends and he got there just in time. He saved them and then they sent a monster and it grew, so the Power Rangers pulled out all three MegaZords.
Queen Bansheera is telling Jinxer that Vypra and Loki will become the leaders some day because her son is so incompetent. Olympius find this out and sets a trap for Vypra and Loki. Olympius' monsters comes up from under the ground and buries Vypra and Loki, then sets a trap for the Power Rangers, who arrive and find only a hand stuck in the ground. The hand sends vines out to catch the Power Rangers, who cannot move or morph into Power Rangers. The vines have poisonous spores that will be released into Mariner Bay. Suddenly out of nowhere Vypra and Loki come out from being buried under the ground, only in the desert. They start the long journey back, planning to get Olympius when they get there. Meanwhile, the Power Rangers try to cut the vines off themselves with a laser but they can't. When they try to use a poison on the vines, a monster comes and destroys all of it. They use their Zord to go out into space and let the vinces release their spores there. They morph into Power Rangers and go fight the monster. They defeat him, but jinxer makes him grow. The Power Rangers use their MegaZord to destroy the monster permanently. Vypra and Loki get back to their tomb, where Ryan has been studying it. He sees Vypra bring Diabolico back to life from the tomb, and Diabolico says he will get the Power Rangers and Olympius too.
The Power Rangers were testing a new weapon called the Thermoblaster when Ryan called and said that someone was released from the death cave. Just then Impus and Freeza showed up and started to capture the Power Rangers, then Diabolico showed up. Impus and Diabolico started to fight, then Queen Bansheera struck them with lightning which allowed the Red Ranger to escape. The Red Ranger grabbed a Thermoblaster. He showed up, then Freeza showed up, and he destroyed him. The rest of the Power Rangers showed up and beat him again after he came back to life. They all went home and went to see the half-frozen Ms. Fairweather.
A monster attacked people who were at a park and the Power Rangers showed up. They fought the monster and started to lose, but then Joel proceeded to do something about it by using some very quick thinking to defeat the monster. Back at the base. the Power Rangers were having a debriefing about what happened at the park. Joel went to go talk to Ms. Fairweather after everything was discussed at the debriefing. On his way there, Joel came across someone who wanted to know were Ms. Fairweather was, so Joel told him. Joel realized what had happened and ran to the lab door, where Ms. Fairweather saw the man. He walked in and said he would help. The next day, Joel came in a lab coat and glasses and went into the lab to try the circuitry. He blew it up and he came out all covered with soot. He then went to spy on Ms. Fairweather and the man, turning on a sprinkler right next to the man's car. A monster showed up and lit the man's car on fire. Joel went and saved the man. Joel pulled out the Mega Battles and destroyed the monster, but then the monster came back giant sized. It took down two of the MegaZords, but the Power Rangers used the last one to destory the monster.
Olympius gives Jinxer an egg to place into water that has a very powerful monster in it and is set to hatch soon. Meanwhile, Kelsey sees a guy shoplift apples and chases after him when he takes off on his skateboard. He gets away from her and she looks everywhere for him. The Batlings catch him after he sees Jinxer putting the egg into a fountain. He cries for help and Kelsey hears him. When she morph and comes to help him, she has to fight the Batlings. When Jinxer goes to get the egg from the fountain it is gone. Jinxer sends his minions to find the egg, even looking in the grocery store, but they have no luck. The Power Rangers catch them, but suddenly fliers start falling from the sky. The fliers say the egg is being held hostage and demands a ransom. The Rangers find out from where the fliers were delivered, but the Artie, the skateboarder guy behind it, got away. Jinxer and the Power Rangers each bring the ransom money to the drop spot, but Artie gets away with the money and the egg on his jet ski. The Batlings chase the skateboarder while the Power Rangers are being held by Birdbane, but Kelsey gets loose and chases the skateboarder too. She saves him and tells him he is a loser. Then she goes back to help the Power Rangers against Birdbane. Artie shows up and throws the egg at Birdbane, which gives the Rangers time to fire the UniLaser at him. Birdbane grows, but the Rangers defeat him with the SuperTrain MegaZord. The Rangers find out that Artie was stealing to help the homeless people and are glad to find that he has gotten a job.
A mermaid named Marina was chained to a coveand Vypra came and set her free. She ran off and the next day she met Chad and fell in love with him. She watched him fix a broken cable under the water and then there was an avalanche that pinned him down. She freed him and gave him to the other Power Rangers. That night, Chad woke up and saw her in the window of the infirmary, but then she swam off. Vypra showed up at the mermaid's lair and gave her a thing to give to Chad so that he would like her. The mermaid gave it to him and it bound him by chains. Vypra showed up and told her that she did a good job, but she tripped Vypra. Vypra threw a net on the mermaid to make her go to the bottom of the ocean. Chad broke free of his chains and went to save her. He jumped out of the water and defeated Vypra along with the other Power Rangers then Vypra ran off. Chad hoped the mermaid was alright, then she came and said goodbye.

A legion of Ghouls attack him, led by Triskull, and then they head off into space.Meanwhile, in Mariner Bay things are happening everywhere and the Power Rangers are having to save a lot of people. A woman who is visiting her husband is kidnapped by the Ghouls, although her daughter gets away. The woman is made tiny and put into a tube, along with other captured people, to have her life force drained. Olympius and Triskull plan to use the life forces to give Queen Bansheera her powers back. Once Olympius leaves, Trakeena shows up. She has a plan to use the energy to turn herself back into an insect and destroy the Galaxy Rangers' world. The daughter who escaped from the Ghouls meets up with Leo and while they are talking Triskull, disguised as a security guard, comes up and gives her a ball she had lost. Leo follows the guard, unaware he is Triskull, to see what is happening and learns who he is. The other Rangers find Leo, who tells them what is going on up on Mirinoi. The Ghouls have followed Leo and the Rangers have to fight them. Leo uses the Quasar Saber as Leo, not a Power Ranger, and beats them. The Power Rangers save the daughter of the kidnapped woman from Triskull and take her to the Aquabase. The Rangers seek out Triskull and have to fight an army of Ghouls. Olympius sees that is going on and figures out that Triskull and Trakeena are working together. Queen Bansheera tells him to stop them, because if Trakeena changes form she will be too powerful to stop. The current Power Rangers, combined with the Galaxy Rangers, fight Ghouls in Trakeena's lab, but Trakeena finds them and fires upon them. To Be Continued in Part 2...

The Power Rangers go to fight the monster, but along the way Dana sees an injured child and stops to help him, telling the others to go on. The other four Power Rangers go on and fight the monster, who beats them and they are all knocked out.Dana gets there and finds the others have unmorphed. Worse, they don't even remember being Power Rangers. When she tries to take them back to the base, but they are anyway. There they are put into special memory machines by Ms. Fairweather that show them their lives as Power Rangers to restore their memories.

Ryan is in the middle of the desert and becomes tired and thirsty. When he passes out, an old man and a crow in the desert take him in. Meanwhile, Olympius is working on a plan to get the Power Rangers down to the monster underworld. He goes to the gatekeeper and asks him to get them down there. The gatekeeper shows up in Mariner Bay and shoots the Power Rangers with a ray that teleports them down to the monster underworld. The gatekeeper calls on the monster spirits that live in the underworld with his magical staff and the Power Rangers battle them, but they cannot do much against them in the underworld. When Ryan wakes up he finds out that the crow that saved him in the Sorcerer of the Sands. He shows him some spells, which are some writing taken off the tomb. Down in the underworld, the Power Rangers continue to battle and manage to ruin the gatekeeper's magical staff. This sends the monsters on a rampage and they try to get everyone, even the gatekeeper. He and Olympius head back to Earth, followed by monster spirits who want to get them. Suddenly, Diabolico shows up and ruins the gate back to Earth. This means there is no way back and the power Rangers are trapped there forever. However, the Sorcerer tells Ryan that the Rangers are in trouble and he will help them. He sends a special light down to the monster underworld that shows the Power Rangers how to get out, but Olympius is still trapped there. They escape, but they are followed by three different monsters. They fight the monsters and use their MegaZord to get rid of two of them, but the third is still there. Finally, they use the Lightspeed SolarZord to defeat the last monster. The Sorcerer and Diabolico engage in a battle of spells, and the Sorcerer loses. He and the book of spells disappear.
Olympius and Gatekeeper are trapped down in the underworld. Jinxer sends them a message to tell them his plan to become more powerful. He pretends to be a hypnotist at a carnival, but instead of hypnotizing Captain Mitchell he puts him under a spell. Olympius fights monsters in the underworld to get their energy so he can escape with the Gatekeeper. They meet up with Jinxer, who starts using the spell on Captain Mitchell. Jinxer makes him place a device to drain power from the Lightspeed power source and send it to Olympius. When the Power Rangers try to stop him, he won't listen. As soon as he has enough power, Olympius begins attacking the city. The Power Rangers head into action and meet up with Jinxer, Olympius, and the Gatekeeper in the cemetery, but Olympius is too strong now because of the power he stole. Ms. Fairweather decides to go to the Lightspeed power room and take some guards with her to stop Captain Mitchell from sending Olympius the power. Meanwhile, Olympius is able to grow because of all the power he has. The Power Rangers use the Max SolarZord, but it is defeated. They bring in the Lightspeed MegaZord and the Supertrain MegaZord, but Olympius defeats them too. The Power Rangers then use the Omega MegaZord and the Lightspeed SolarZord to fight him. Back at the Lightspeed power room, Ms. Fairweather and the guards reach Captain Mitchell, but he puts up a fight because of the spell. Ms. Fairweather destroys the power core with an ax, which weakens Olympius and allows the Omega MegaZord to beat him. Jinxer takes him away to recover.
The Power Rangers went to the beach to surf and the Blue Power Ranger didn't want to. That seemed to be a bad sign, so Chelsea came and sat next to him and asked him what was wrong. He told her that the ocean reminded him of Marina, and then he sat there almost all day. Meanwhile, Diabolico sent a monster to steal Neptune's trident. Neptune told Marina that his trident was stolen, so she came out of the water with legs. She found the Blue Power Ranger and they ran off looking for the trident. They got halfway there when she felt ill and told him to go on without her. The Blue Power Ranger reached the magic pond and jumped in. He got the trident and the monster that stole it came out too. The Power Rangers destroyed him, then Vypra showed up with Marina. The monster was brought back to life and stole the trident again. The Blue Power Ranger got Marina back and the rest of the Power Rangers destroyed the monster and put the water back. Back at base they found Marina, Neptune, and the Blue Power Ranger and were able to give back the trident.
Jinxer has been taking care of Olympius and he is almost back to normal now. Carter has been trying out a new TransArmor Cycle, but he crashes while testing it. Diabolico sends a spider monster named Arachanor to defeat the Power Rangers and bring back humans to feed its babies when they hatch. When the Power Rangers try to fight the monster, it defeats them with little effort. Carter keeps working on the TransArmor Cycle, hoping it can help them against Arachanor. The rest of the Power Rangers are captured by Arachanor and tied up in webbing. Carter arrives to rescue them, but they are gone. Arachanor makes itself tiny and jumps onto Carter unnoticed. The rest of the Rangers are being kept with the humans as food when the spider eggs hatch. Arachanor then goes to the Aquabase and captures everyone there and brings them back to be webbed up with the others. Carter takes the TransArmor Cycle and runs across Vypra in the Vyprari. They fight and Carter destroys the Vyprari. He finds the web where everyone is being held and blasts the spider eggs in the center. Once freed the Power Rangers morph and they all battle the Batlings there. Carter gets back to fighting Arachanor with the TransArmor Cycle and totally destroys it.
Queen Bansheera starts to change, but into what? While she is in the middle of it, Vypra has the Treevil monster attack Mariner Bay. The Power Rangers get there too late to stop the monster, but help the people who were hurt. A news photographer takes their pictures helping and they are published in the newspaper the next day. Someone from a magazine called Glitz sees Dana's picture in the paper and asks Dana to become a model. Dana takes it so she can pay her way through medical school. While she is modelling she ignores the other Power Rangers and any signals they send her. The Treevil monster is still rampaging on Mariner Bay, but there are only the other four Rangers to battle it and they are defeated. Later, the Rangers go back tot he base to recover and Dana shows up. Kelsey tells her what happened and how they were beaten by the monster, but Dana has to leave in a limousine to do more modelling before Kelsey finishes. Dana begins to let the modelling go to her head and treats the others like they are not important to her anymore. She is part of a fashion show and when her morpher signals her she ignores it. The Treevil monster has struck again. The other Rangers fight it, but with no luck. Dana shows up at the last minute, choosing the Rangers over modelling, and the five Power Rangers defeat the Treevil monster, losing the Lightspeed MegaZord into the Earth along the way.
Queen Bansheera is trying to finish up her transformation, so she kills Vypra and absorbs her into her system. She sends Loki to destroy the Power Rangers and he shows up at the stadium. Back at the base they detect an energy surge, so Captain Mitchell sends Carter to check it out. On his way there he runs across Olympius and learns that he is not dead after all. The rest of the Power Rangers got to the stadium to find out about the energy surge and run into Loki. They ask him what is going on, but then Diabolico shows up to help Loki. Queen Bansheera uses a dimension vortex to bring the four Power Rangers, Loki, and Diabolico to her. She makes Diabolico try to destroy the Power Rangers, but Loki gets in the way and is killed. A fire gets started and the Power Rangers and Diabolico are trapped by it. Meanwhile, Carter manages to barely escape from where Olympius is and gets to the stadium. He goes into the vortex dimension to help the other Power Rangers. Diabolico tells Carter how to stop Queen Bansheera, so he goes looking for her. When he finds her, he hits her in the middle of her chest like Diabolico told him. The Power Rangers go back out the vortex dimension and Queen Bansheera follows them, only now she is huge. The Power Rangers use the Lightspeed SolarZord and she runs away. Diabolico says he will get her for killing Loki.
Ms. Fairweather has come up with a new technology that uses the Power Rangers life force to power it. She uses the technology to create a Lifeforce MegaZord. Meanwhile, Diabolico meets up with Olympius and the two fight each other. Diabolico is captured by Olympius, who brings him to Queen Bansheera. The Queen turns Diabolico into a slave and sends Olympius out with him to fight the Power Rangers. The Power Rangers fight Diabolico and call on their Zords and weapons, but Diabolico destroys the Power Rangers' MegaZords. They manage to escape alive. Then Carter tries to reason with Diabolico and points out the evil things that Queen Bansheera has done to him. Diabolico comes to his senses and goes to fight Olympius. Olympius wins once again, but before he is totally done Diabolico gives the golden key to Carter. The Rangers go to fight Olympius and knock him down temporarily, but he comes back larger with new energy and brings an enslaved Diabolico with him. The Power Rangers use everything they have against them, but all their weapons are useless and destroyed. The Power Rangers use their own life energy to power the Lifeforce MegaZord enough to destroy both Diabolico and Olympius.
Ryan finds the golden key in a tomb in the Skull Cavern and learns that Queen Bansheera is going to to release all of the demons from the shadow world onto Earth. He is letting the other Power Rangers know about her plan, but she shows up and kidnaps Ryan. Even though the other Rangers tell him not to, Carter goes to the Skull Cavern to save Ryan. Jinxer places a card on the Lifeforce MegaZord that sends an army of Batlings to the Aquabase. The remaining Rangers are split into two teams, fighting on both sides of the base. The Batlings use the Lifeforce MegaZord that they have gotten control of to attack the outside of the base. Captain Mitchell freezes up, so Ms. Fairweather takes over and tells everyone to leave the base. When the Rangers go back inside to save Captain Mitchell, they are trapped by the Lifeforce MegaZord attack on the outside. Meanwhile, Carter saves Ryan and the two of them fight Batlings. They are beaten by the Batlings and kicked out of the Skull Caverns. Jinxer then takes control of the Omega MegaZord and uses it to put some large round rocks around Mariner Bay. Back at the Aquabase, the Rangers are trapped inside while water is pouring in. To be Continued in Part 2....
The Aqua Base was being attacked by the MegaZord because Queen Bansheera stole the MegaZords. She started to build the castle and destroy the Lightspeed Rescue Aqua Base. The Power Rangers sat in the control room trapped and couldn't get out, but they found a maintenance shaft that led to the submarine bay. They swam there and got into the submarine. They started to lower it, when batwings appeared and blew up the lowering mechanism. The Green Ranger blew up the side of the Aqua Base with torpedoes, and then blew up the train MegaZord. He went up to the surface where the Red and Silver Rangers were attacking the MegaZord. The Queen's castle was there and the Power Rangers blew up the MegaZord, entered the castle, and defeated Queen Bansheera.
