* CombatBreakdown: In I, Chiro, the confrontation between the Hyperforce and the full force of Skeleton King's assault on Shuggazoom starts with a fully-powered and crewed Super Robot engaging Skeleton King's ''entire Formless army'', which quickly melds into three gargantuan beasts. After they inflict some damage to the Super Robot, including a severe strike to its head, and prove able to regenerate from its lesser attacks, Chiro neutralizes them with a Lazertron Fury that drains the Super Robot down to emergency power only... only for Skeleton King to have three last Formless pods held in reserve. An Antenna Ray destroys two of them, but the [[EliteMooks contents]] of the third successfully break in (while its violent impact also knocks the Robot Monkeys out), and force Chiro to detonate the Robot's Neutron Generator Core to destroy them[[spoiler:, as he is bereft of his Power Primate powers]]. With the Monkeys still knocked out and recovering, Chiro "borrows" Otto's jetpack and one of his monkey hands, and proceeds to confront the Skeleton King and Mandarin with little else.


Added DiffLines:

* LikeCannotCutLike: In the duel between Chiro and Mandarin in I, Chiro, Chiro's energy saw is able to block and deflect Mandarin's energy sword, while both sword and shield prove an effective defense against it. To claim victory, however, Mandarin is forced to target the gauntlet itself, which is not made of energy.

If you look closely, they're shown to have [[spoiler: volcanic diamonds]] embedded in their forms, suggesting that they're also drawing their power from these natural batteries, enabling their enhanced regeneration. For most of the episode, they're NighInvulnerable, suffering only ambiguous defeats and setbacks. It takes the [[spoiler: Nebutron 7's drill]], and later its [[spoiler: self-destruction]], to meaningfully and permanently defeat them. Thankfully, with the mining colony secure and Skeleton King's supply line of volcanic diamonds cut off, they don't seem to be making any comebacks.
