The term was first used on-screen in Power Rangers in Space, where Andros (Red Space Ranger) obtained the first 'Battlizer' and began an annual tradition where every single succeeding Red Ranger would obtain such.

It was first conceptualized in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, where Jason Lee Scott, as the Red Ranger utilized MMPR Greens Dragon Shield. Within the Power Rangers continuity, a Battlizer is a special armored enhancement given exclusively to the Red Ranger, typically depicted as the Red Rangers' most powerful, and 'final' form. 3 List of Megabattle Armors in Power Rangers.2 List of Battlizer Armors in Power Rangers.
