Everyone: Voltron!
- —Voltron Lion Force during transformation
Voltron is a mech from the Voltron series. It appeared in the 75th episode of Death Battle, Power Rangers VS Voltron, where it and the Voltron Lion Force fought against the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and the Megazord from the Power Rangers series.
History
Thousands of years ago, Voltron was a mighty warrior forged from both magic and science, and created to protect the universe from the tyranny of King Zarkon. However, his loyal witch Haggar struck Voltron with a magic spell that removed his sentience and split him into five individual robotic lions. Then, in the year 1999, a crew of space pilots sent by the Galaxy Alliance traveled to the planet Arus, only to find it devastated by Zarkon's forces. Eventually, the explorers were captured and enslaved, but they managed to escape and eventually discover the hidden and dormant robot, becoming paladins worthy of piloting his beastly components. With their united powers, Voltron would reawaken to fight for the safety of the universe once again.
