Personality
The Terror Toad is a very malicious and evil character. He has an enormous appetite and one-track mind, wanting nothing more than to devour the Power Rangers. During battle, he enjoys taunting and mocking the Rangers as he demonstrates his overwhelming might, and takes great delight in ultimately swallowing them, complimenting their taste. He is also prone to anger as seen when his horn is cut off and he devours Jason in retaliation.

History
In the episode Power Ranger Punks, Terror Toad is created by Rita Repulsa's servant Finster to destroy the Power Rangers. He is sent to Earth and battles the Rangers Trini, Jason, and Zack (the other two Rangers, Billy and Kimberly, are indisposed after drinking a potion created by Rita's servant, Baboo, that turns them into nasty bullies).

The Terror Toad proves to be a powerful foe, easily fending off the Power Rangers' attacks and delivers several powerful strikes against them. After knocking Trini to the ground, the Terror Toad fires an energy beam from his horn that wraps around the Ranger and transforms her into a yellow energy sphere. The sphere is then drawn into the Terror Toad's mouth and he swallows Trini whole, after which an image of her helmet appears on his belly. The Terror Toad continues to battle the Red and Black Rangers and easily dominates them. After several failed attacks against him, the toad knocks Zack down and fires his energy tongue at him as well. The Black Ranger is transformed into an energy sphere and the Terror Toad swallows him.

The Terror Toad battles the Red Ranger alone for a while, but the latter is soon joined by Billy and Kimberly who have been cured of the punk potion. The Blue and Pink Rangers then cut off the toad's horn, leaving him unable to use his energy tongue. This angers the Terror Toad and, in retaliation, he shoots out his physical tongue and wraps it around the Red Ranger. He then pulls the Red Ranger into his mouth and swallows him whole. In doing this, however, he also exposes the weak spot on his neck to the Blue and Pink Rangers. With only two Rangers left, the Terror Toad begins to approach them hungrily. After the toad delivers a powerful dive-punch to the both of them, the Blue Ranger attempts an attack by leaping into the air. However, the Terror Toad fires his tongue once again and catches him in mid-air. The toad pulls the Blue Ranger into his mouth and swallows him whole.

The Terror Toad is then joined by Baboo who stops an attempt by Kimberly to attack the monster. The toad and Baboo begin to approach the lone Pink Ranger, the former intending to devour her to secure their victory. However, Kimberly then fires a flurry of arrows into the Terror Toad's neck, which knocks him over and forces him to regurgitate the swallowed Rangers. After the newly-freed Rangers deliver several powerful strikes against him, the Terror Toad is destroyed when Kimberly fires an arrow into his mouth.

Method of Consumption
The Terror Toad had two methods of consumption. First, he was able to conjure a large yellow mouth from the horn on his head, which would then shoot out long tongue that would wrap around his victims and turn them into a small energy sphere. Apparently compelled to do so on its own, the sphere would then fly into his mouth and he would swallow it. After his horn was cut off, he could no longer turn his victims into energy spheres and was forced to switch over to his secondary method in which he simply launched his normal tongue out and wrapped it around his victims like a lasso. He would then pull them into his mouth and swallow them whole. Since Jason and Billy were spit out as energy spheres, despite being swallowed whole, it is assumed that those who are swallowed whole by the Terror Toad are turned into energy inside his stomach.

Whenever the Terror Toad swallowed one of the Power Rangers, an image of their helmet would appear on his belly.
