Karone, once again portrayed by Melody Perkins, was Andros' sister and the former Princess of Evil Astronema. After Kendrix's noble death, Karone was drawn to the frontier planet Onyx, where she posed as Astronema to obtain the lost Pink Quasar Saber. She was exposed by Trakeena, and during a tough unmorphed battle with her, Karone was kicked in the stomach, blasted by Trakeena's energy attack, thrown off a cliff, and was rescued by Kendrix's spirit, who granted her the powers of the Pink Ranger. When Karone returned and reclaimed the Pink Quasar Saber from Trakeena, it transformed her into the new Pink Galaxy Ranger. She served with the other Galaxy Rangers as a means to atone for her past as Astronema, and helped save Terra Venture from destruction. Upon returning the Pink Quasar Saber to its stone on Mirinoi, Kendrix was revived.
Karone is the first (arch)villain turned good Power Ranger, followed by Merrick Baliton, the Lunar Wolf Ranger, of Power Rangers Wild Force. However, unlike the latter case, she only became a Ranger in the series following the one where she had been a villain.
