Mistakes

During the Green Candle, in series 1, we are told that the only reason Tommy's Green Ranger powers could be drained is because he touched a special wax. However, Kim, Billy, Zack, and Trini did not touch the special wax, therefore the candles shouldn't have stolen their powers. When they were captured, they were transported straight to a prison cell as Goldar lit the candles, therefore the Rangers couldn't have touched the candles when captured. See more...

Trivia

In the Japanese version of the show, there was no Pink Ranger - hence there only being a Red, Black, Blue, Yellow, and White Shogunzord. The Cranezord was originally designed for the White Ranger (who, in the Japanese version, was female), and the Falconzord was an entirely different Zord. See more...

Across whole show

When the Rangers, and Villains fire projectiles at each other (for example, energy blasts) the ensuing blast suggests they were hit. However, when played in slow motion, we can see that the explosions shoot up from the ground around them - they don't even touch the characters. [A) having to watch something in slow mo is not a valid mistake. B) Just because the explosion doesn't touch them it does not mean it will still throw them around and hurt them even if the bad guys do miss.]
Edit
This happens mostly during the early series. Whenever the Rangers throw a flying side kick (the jumping one that they seem to be rather fond of), they do it all wrong. They throw the kick leg out from the start, while the kick is actually thrown with the leg chambered until the moment before impact. Throwing it the way that the Rangers do will jam your leg. [It's stylized. Every martial arts film/series/show ever made features "fake" moves like this. It's a filmmaking convention, not a mistake.]

Return of an Old Friend (1) (series 1)

When Billy is under Rita's spell, he goes to the Command Centre, and calls on the Dragondagger from Zordon. When Tommy gave up his power coin in the Green Candle, he was shown to have given the Dragondagger to Jason, not to Zordon. [Jason gave it to Zordon for safe keeping, as he still had his original red powers and dinozord.]
Edit

Day of the Dumpster (series 1)

Zordon tells the Rangers that their Zords are based on Dinosaurs. 2 of the Zords are the Mastadon and Sabre-toothed tiger - these are not dinosaurs, merely pre-evolutionary creatures. [First, there is no such thing as a pre-evolutionary creature, you mean prehistoric. Second, Zordon just lumped them all as dinosaurs rather than split hairs. Technically, the pteradactyl isn't a true dinosaur either.]
Edit

All of series 1 (series 1)

Throughout series 1, there is a World Map on the classroom wall. It still lists the Soviet Union. The show was made in 1993, a full 2 years after the Soviet Union breakup. [An out-of-date map on the wall of a classroom? Hardly unusual.]
Edit Corrected by J I Cohen
Goldar's voice changes as the series progresses. [Goldar is a space alien and we know little about his species; his voice changing could be apart of him growing older.]
Edit

White Light (2) (series 2)

All the other Rangers wear their Morphers on their belt, as the "buckle," if you will. When Tommy is the White Ranger, his morpher isn't on his belt, yet it is during the Power Rangers movie. [This is because the White Ranger suit is nor based on designs from the same Sentai series. The original six Power Rangers (Red, Black, Blue, Yellow, Pink and Green) were based on costume designs from ZyuRanger. The White Ranger costume is from the next Sentai series DaiRanger, which were totally unrealated to each other. The DaiRangers did not have morphers like the ZyuRangers. They morphed using devices called "Doron Changers" (later used as the Magna Defender morpher in PRLG). Tommy still had the usual morpher like the others, but gold like his Green Ranger morpher was.]
Edit

White Light (1) (series 2)

This happens until "Alien Rangers of Aquitar," in Series 3. When Tommy is the White Ranger, Saba, his sword constantly disappears and reappears. [Saba does not disappear and reappear at anytime. The only times when Saba is not holstered on the White Ranger's belt, was before Saba was presented to Tommy, when Saba is being used to fight with, Saba is controlling the Tigerzord or in "Best Man for the Job" when Saba was stolen.]
Edit

The Wanna-Be Ranger (series 2)

It was stated in the first episode that the Rangers should always keep their identity secret, or they'll lose their powers - yet the Rangers had no problem calling the Blue Ranger by his real name of Billy, right in front of the public. [Like he's the only person named Billy in the entire world...]
Edit Corrected by Myridon

All of series 2 (series 2)

Whenever we are shown Lord Zedd's palace on the Moon, we can see dark storm clouds overhead...which, of course, is impossible on the Moon. [A guy who can create magical monsters and grow them to giant size can probably manage a few storm clouds, to make his fortress look more menacing.]
Edit
Whenever the Triceritops is shown transforming into the Unicorn, The Triceritops is missing it's grey tail as seen in series 1. [It is there; it's just tucked in at the top, you can see the end of it out the back.]
Edit

Hogday Afternoon (2) (series 3)

Billy uses a remote control to pilot the Falconzord (a Ninjazord) to assist the Aquitain Rangers. However, when Goldar destroyed the Rangers power coins in "Alien Rangers of Aquitar", we are told that the Ninjazords were now inoperable. [The Falconzord is special as it can combine with both the Ninja and Shogun Megazords. Billy was probably controlling the Falconzord as a Shogunzord, thus not needing the Falcon Power Coin.]
Edit

Master Vile and the Metallic Armor (2) (series 3)

When Master Vile's monster drains power from Ninjor, we can see that some of Ninjor's appearance transfers over the monster. When the monster does this to the Rangers however, the appearance drain matches of the Aquitain Rangers (Who had not yet come into the series). This is because Saban had carried over the costumes from the previous series, so that all 6 Rangers could remain (Due to their only being 5 Aquitain Rangers). [Actually this was because all of the Zord battle footage (and therefore the footage of Globber fighting them), was taken from the Sentai series KakuRanger. The KakuRanger were the Alien Rangers of Power Rangers. They were the ones fighting Globber when the footage was made.]
Edit

Changing of the Zords (2) (series 3)

Billy tells Tommy that he can use his Portal Opener to rescue Kimberley from the Dark Dimension, where Tommy once was. There are a few mistakes here. 1) The Portal Opener is completely different to one used in Series 1. 2) The first time it was used, it was to go after the Green Candle, which was stealing Tommy's Green Ranger powers. Tommy was never trapped in a Dark Dimension. 3) Kimberely is in Lord Zedd's Dark Dimension, not Rita's. (Which is where the Green Candle was). The Dimensions are completely different. [1)A more powerful portal opener was used since the first one was flimsy and weak. 2)Tommy was trapped in the Dark Dimension as the evil Green Ranger. He was left there as punishment by Goldar for letting Jason escape in "Green with Evil 3, The Rescue." 3)The Dark Dimension is a holding cell for Zedd's or Rita's prisoners. Even the Rangers parents were trapped there once when they were kidnapped and ransomed for the power coins resulting in Tommy's return as the Green Ranger.]
Edit

A Friend in Need (3) (series 3)

Kimberley (in morphed form) sneezes on Repellator, causing it to catch Kimberley's flu. How did Repellator catch the flu, with Kim's helmet being in the way? [The germs from her sneeze travelled through one of the breathing holes the mask has wherever they may be.]
Edit

A Season to Remember (series 4)

In this episode, Tanya tells the other Power Rangers about her African American tradition of Kwanzaa. But Tanya isn't really African-American; she recently came to the Rangers directly from Africa. Native Africans rarely celebrate Kwanzaa. Tanya was also fluent in English the moment she arrived in Angel Grove. It's as if the show wants the viewer to forget that Tanya wasn't always part of the community. [In season 3 young Tanya was sent by young Aisha to deliver the yellow piece of the ZEO-crystal to Angel Grove from somewhere in the past. When time got restored Tanya was suddenly part of the community and always had been.]
Edit

Always a Chance (series 6)

When Adam shows Alpha the old Mastodon morpher, Alpha claims that the Power Coin was destroyed ages ago - this is not true. Only the Zords were destroyed, not the Coins. [Actually in "Ninja Quest part 1" when Alpha tried to provide the Zords with more power he ended up causing a power surge which caused the power coins to short circut (Hence the damage shown on Adam's morpher), which is why the rangers never used the Dino Coins after that.]
Edit

True Blue to the Rescue (series 6)

The Turbo powers were destroyed in "Chase Into Space" part 2, at the end of series 5 - Justin shouldn't of been able to morph into the Blue Turbo Ranger. [The Blue Turbo Powers could possibly be powered by Storm Blaster for this mission (it was Storm Blaster who gave Justin the Turbo Moprher and key).]
Edit

The Delta Discovery (series 6)

This happens until the end of the series. When the Delta Megaship is found, it attaches to the Astro Megaship, and they travel around together. However, thoughout the series, the Delta Megaship is constantly disappearing and reappearing. [They do not "attach and travel around together". They only ever combine during Megazord battles to form the Astro Delta Megazord. They never attach in ship mode.]
Edit

The End of the Power Rangers (1) (series 10)

Zordon tells us that Rita and co. were released from a dumpster on the Moon. Look carefully at the background when they are shown to be released...a nice blue sky? On the Moon? [In Power Rangers, the moon has always had a atmosphere and Earth-like gravity. This is why, Rita and Zedd could drive their RV around the surface during Zeo and why the Red Rangers in Forever Red didn't suffocate, amoung others. It may not be true of the moon in real life, but it is consistent for Power Rangers.]
