Curb Stomp Battles in Super Sentai, see also Power Rangers:
- Traditionally, Dragons are used in Super Sentai to measure the strength of the team.
- In Juken Sentai Gekiranger, they awesomely used this trope in both directions in a three-parter, in which the heroes fought their rival Rio. In their first battle, they get mercilessly curb-stomped by him, surviving only because their master offered himself as a hostage to buy the heroes some time. But after the heroes achieve their Super Mode, Rio himself gets curb-stomped, resulting in his Villainous Breakdown.
- In Samurai Sentai Shinkenger, the Big Bad Doukouku decides to enter the surface world. Like Xandred, Doukouku is in danger of dying from drying out. This being Super Sentai, the Curb-stomp battle is a lot more brutal.
- Mahou Sentai Magiranger — How does MagiKing deal with a particularly annoying Monster of the Week? By grabbing him by the collar and punching him in the face over and over.
- Sentai has this trope in layers — any threatening monster and pretty much any henchman, at giant size, will curbstomp the primary gattai robo. The super gattai robo can usually dominate anything. And then, once the forth robo and/or ultimate formation appears, any time the super gattai robo appears it can expect to be crushed.
- From its third or forth appearance, the Sixth Ranger's Robo effectiveness ranges between "second fiddle" and "monster of the week's chew toy", except as a component of the Super Gattai Robo. Even happens if the series has no Super Gattai Robo (Magiranger), or the Sixth Ranger's isn't a component of it (Boukenger).
- Remember the example above from Power Rangers in Space regarding the Psycho Rangers? Well, let's just say it was one of the few elements that was adapted directly from In Space's Sentai source Denji Sentai Megaranger, that is to say, the Jaden Sentai Neziranger gave the Megarangers just as hard a time.
- The Hassha Button Lingany from Mashin Sentai Kiramager lasted little more than a minute (68 seconds in fact, making it the Monster of the Week with less screentime in the entire franchise) against the Kiramaizin Express, who obliterated the missile battery themed giant beast before it could do anything. Carantula actually threw a temper tantrum over it.
