Synopsis
A non-governmental agency sends a group of explorers to the microscopic kingdom home to thousands of benevolent, anthropomorphic animals. When an ancient mutant warlord who has the potential to plunge society into chaos is unleashed upon the Earth, the explorers must join up with a novice zoologist with great knowledge of the realm's species to become a brand new team of Power Rangers, empowered by the ancient animal spirits, and the courage and will to discover, to defend the planet and fight the mutants with animal-powered weapons, Zords and Megazords.

Season 1
Discovery is a non-governmental organisation based in the city of Sovereign City, dedicated to exploration, research and defence of the Sub-Atomic Realm, an parallel, microscopic dimension, founded by commanding officer Solomon Burnham, an extra-terrestrial scientist and warrior from the fallen planet of Chimeria. He selects Billionaire and Discovery chairman Anton Baxter, experienced Discovery operatives Daniel Elahi and Laura Jacobs, and rookies Jimmy Sophocles and Erin Tucker, to participate in Isis III, the third of a long line of missions to Instinctia, a kingdom ruled by a race of andromorphic animals, and shrunk into the sub-atomic plane to isolate itself from those who threaten it.

During the crew's first mission, an accident leads to Xenu - an evil, ancient warrior who planned to shrink Earth into sub-atomic mass - being unleashed from Instinctia's core, which contains his essence. In his rampage, the freed Xenu lays waste to Instinctia and takes over Baxter's body, while the spirits of four fallen Instinctian masters are fused with the DNAs of the four remaining members. Michael Burnham, the commander's half-human son and a Discovery zoologist who met one of the Instinctian masters - Master Bird - as a child, finds out about the incident and decides to help the four surviving members. After their DNAs are studied and analysed, Commander Burnham grants the four Isis III crew members with he powers and abilities of the Discovery Rangers, making them Earth's only hope to stop Xenu - along with his lieutenants Narnette, Cubois and Snisog, and his army of mutant warriors attempting to take over the world and shrink it to sub-atomic mass. Against his father's wishes, Michael also joins the group as their fifth ranger, the Red Discovery Ranger.
