.
Trey provided several powerful zord
s that the Rangers used to battle the Machine Empire, including the Super Zeozords, Warrior Wheel, and his own spaceship
, Pyramidas.
Trey as the Gold Ranger was the second person to have a theme song, "Go Gold Ranger", and the third overall, following Tommy Oliver
's "Go Green Ranger Go" and "White Ranger Tiger Power".
When Trey first appeared as the Gold Ranger, he kept his identity concealed (leading the other Rangers to suspect that he might in fact be Billy Cranston
), showing up during a fight and departing at the conclusion. However, he was eventually wounded by seven bounty hunters called Varoxes and forced to reveal himself. When he did so, his unity was shattered (see the note on Triforians, below) and his three souls became separate individuals: Trey of Courage, Trey of Wisdom, and Trey of Heart.
While he existed as separate entities, Trey could no longer use his Gold Ranger powers and passed them to Jason Lee Scott
temporarily. One of his entities was briefly seen when Trey gave the Zeo Rangers another weapon. However, it was never specified which entity (Wisdom, Courage or Heart) they were talking to. When he was finally restored with the help of Zordon
and Alpha 5
, and Jason's life force was fading away with the Gold Ranger powers due to them never having been intended for a human host, Trey used the Power Transfer Ceremony to unify his three forms and take back the Gold Ranger Powers and helped the Zeo Rangers defeat King Mondo
, using an ability the Golden Power Staff possessed to make them all grow to Zord-size.
The planet Triforia was involved in the procedure to reunite Trey in a single body, as was the planet Aquitar.
