Zourugin (ゾウルギン Zōrugin) is an elephant-themed Silver Imperial Army Monster at the service of the Silver Imperial Army Zone. He serves as the primary antagonist of the fourth episode of the series "Get the Earth Drunk".
History[]
Zourugin was brought in by Galactic Scientist Doldora as part of a scheme to lower Earth's defenses by turning the water and fluid supply of Earth into alcohol, lowering its defenses for an invasion. The scheme ultimately turned the entire town into drunks and even is used to affect two cars as Doldora expanded him. When Remi discovered the scheme and tries to stop him, she is thrown into the sake-transformed water at a dam Doldora infects, only to become drunk herself and a burden to Fiveman during the initial attack. However when Fiveman take on Zourugin again, FiveYellow returns revealing her skill at suiken, the drunken-fist style of kung fu that allows for her fluid movements to pummel the Galactic Warrior and bind him with her Melody Tact so the team could finish him off with the Brother Attack. After Doldora uses Gorlin #03 to make a giant Zourugin, Gaku allowed Remi to pilot FiveRobo, giving it her suiken abilities and allowing for her to finish him off with the Double Super Five Crash with the Super-Dimensional Sword split into daggers for both of his hands. 
TV STORY-Ep. 4: Get the Earth Drunk
Personality[]
Zourugin was a cunning, highly intelligent, manipulative and arrogant alien monster, who was willing to accomplish his mission of conquering the Earth with drunkenness. Because every season of Super Sentai follows mostly and largely the same background of plot for the earliest episodes, Zourugin's personality and plans remained the same as the earliest monsters of the TV series, being highly playful and mischievous and enjoying toying around with his enemies during the battles with the Rangers. However, he was also completely and unambiguously loyal and faithful towards his masters the Army Zone leaders and was shown to be very protective towards them.
