King Mondo is the leader of the Machine Empire and the main antagonist of Power Rangers Zeo, as well as a minor villain in Power Rangers In Space. He is the archenemy of Rocky DeSantos, the Zeo blue Ranger.
History
King Mondo lead his Machine Empire to the Moon, where they drove out Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa. He believed that Earth would be an easy conquest, but was surprised when the Zeo Power Rangers defeated a squad of his Cogs. However King Mondo was intrigued by this more than he was angered, since all of his previous conquests had been boring and too easy and these Power Rangers actually proved formidable.

Mondo later was rebuilt and drove out Prince Gasket and Archerina who had taken over in his absence. He sent in a new monster called Cog Changer and formed a temporary alliance with Zedd, Rita, and their monster. But they soon started fighting against each other again since they both wanted to get the Gold Ranger powers. Eventually King Mondo engaged the Rangers in giant form for a final battle, but was defeated. Later he and the rest of the Royal House of Gadgetry met with Zedd and Rita, who used a bomb to blow up Mondo and the others.
