Shochi Sentai Variranger

Shochi Sentai Variranger(Action Squadron Variranger) is the name of the 40th Super Sentai season, and it marks the 40th Anniversary of the Super Sentai franchise. The motif is unknown, but what is known that this team can use the power of fictional pop-culture action heroes, even other than Super Sentai.

PLOT:
Josh Holo and the previous 39 Super Sentai teams, came from our dimension to another one, to help its denizens defend themselves from one of the Damus Segments, the Satanic Army Abiguar. When things get harder, a whole bunch of fictional heroes, led by Autobots Optimus Prime, Jazz, Prowl, Bumblebee, and Ironhide, aid Josh Holo and the Sentai teams against Abiguar. The fleet sure was overwhelming, but with all of their power, they were able to take down the Abiguar army. But, it came with a price: all of the action heroes, except Josh and AkaRanger, all lost their lives and turned into Herogurines(any dead Super Sentai team will have Ranger Keys scattered). So, Josh and AkaRanger selected five extraordinary civilians of this dimension to train them for in case one or more of the Damus Segments return. When two Damus Segments, Satanic Army Abiguar and their rival: the Shadow Realm Utaros, come to our dimension to conquer it, Josh Holo and the AkaRanger FINALLY turned their five students into: Variranger. They use the Herogurines to transform into various action heroes, and wield their power against evil!

VARIRANGERS:
Sakurai/VariRed-team leader

Tenta/VariGreen-team infantry

Hinata/VariPink-team strategist

Koji/VariBlue-team commander

Goro/VariYellow-team muscle

GEAR:
Shochanner-morphing device. Depending on what Herogurine they use, they also use these ultimate powers to do certain things, like summoning the VariLiner. They also use the Shochanners to take forms of action heroes by the corresponding Herogurines. All Shochanners can hold up to 4 Herogurines.

Herogurines-magical devices that are all left of the fallen heroes. They are mini action figures that go from a little box that pops open into a character. Their belt buckles can only hold up to 4 Herogurines.

WEAPONS:
VariGuns/VariRods-sidearms of the Varirangers. If they like, they can plug in any Herogurine for more power.

VariBuster-all five sidearms of the Varirangers combine into this weapon. To launch the final attack, five or less Herogurines that correspond to a certain franchise have to be plugged in, then to pull the trigger.

ALLIES:
Josh Holo-a brave man armed with magic and a rifle. He is the Variranger's father figure and trainer. Along with Aka Ranger, he miracously survived the Great War against Abiguar.

Aka Ranger-leader of the very first Super Sentai team: Himitsu Sentai Goranger! He is also a trainer to the Varirangers, and Josh's subordinate.

Fergie-a cat-like alien who is the team's maid and cook. She is a little shy sometimes.

Satanic Army Abiguar
The Satanic Army Abiguar is an unholy organization run by both demos and aliens who sought out to rule our world. While chasing the Variranger through dimension through dimension, they recruit fictional villains to become their monsters. Utaros did the same thing as well.

DaeJa-leader of Abiguar, the main antagonist of the season, and one of Satan's most trusted servants. The main reason why Abiguar chose to conquer our dimension because he heard that his master is sealed by Josh Holo, and seeks revenge on him. At first, we see him as an amulet that talks.

Luana-an alien child who works for DaeJa. She may be like a 9-year-old girl, but she couldn't be taken lightly. She constantly wears the DaeJa amulet around her. She is the second-in-command of Abiguar.

Beeper-Luana's bodyguard who is a dim-witted robot.

Dazogs-foot soldiers of Abiguar. They reassemble red/green gremlins. Utaros has those foot soldiers as well.

Gorgayles-flying gunnerships that the Dazogs pilot, only those who are members of Abiguar. These reassemble gargoyles.

Shadow Realm Utaros
Shadow Realm Utaros is an evil empire who are rivals with Abiguar, mostly due to the fact that they acquired the Dazog army without their approval. Just like Abiguar, they can give fictional villains power to become their monsters.

Trizun-leader of Utaros, and is a master swordsman. He is Mereda's twin brother.

Mereda-commander of Utaros, and is an expert sorceress. She is Trizun's twin sister.

Dazogs-foot soldiers of Utaros. They reassemble red/green gremlins. Abiguar, the original owners, had these foot soldiers as well.

Manticycles-motorcycles that the Dazogs ride on, only those who are members of Utaros. These reassemble manticores.

MECHA:
VariLiner: the Variranger's base of operations, as well as the bullet train that can travel through other worlds. To summon it for a giant-villain battle, the Varirangers use Transformers' ultimate power to call it for battle. GadgetGyro: a helicopter that Penny and Brain pilot. When the Varirangers use Inspector Gadget's ultimate power, it combines. Pikachu: a Pokemon that usually fights as a Super Smash Bros. character. Armed with mushrooms and Pokeballs. when the Varirangers use Nintendo's ultimate power, the Pokemon combines with this mecha. GiantCyclone: a giant sports bike modeled after Kamen Rider Ichigo's Cyclone cycle. When the Varirangers use Kamen Rider's ultimate power, the VariMajin hops on the GiantCyclone to not only ride it, but become another robo.
 * VariFlyers: what all five of the VariLiner cars transform into, by using Gatchaman's ultimate power to do so. Perfect for aerial battles.
