Arachnitor

Arachnitor is a tarantula-like Ushi-oni Nighlok who wanted to get rid of Master Xandred in his desire for power. His plan included using the same sealing symbol that is used on Master Xandred in the past generation, but needs Octoroo's help to get it. When Octoroo poisons the team's drinks while they are at Tengen Temple, Jayden takes a sip and becomes sick. While Arachnitor takes on the Samurai Rangers, Octoroo demands the sealing symbol in exchange for the antidote that would cure Jayden. Antonio, who has been distracted by cooking for the man he does not know is Deker, arrives to find everyone gravely injured, and he helps them take Jayden to a safe place. As punishment for defying Master Xandred, Arachnitor is taken back to the Netherworld and is given Master Xandred's newfound power.

In "Boxed In", Master Xandred's power turns Arachnitor into a mindless Nighlok and Octoroo is ordered to send Arachnitor back to Earth once he is finished mutating. When that is done, Arachnitor is sent to Earth and attacked the city. While Antonio works on the Black Box by adding the powers of each Power Disk to it, the other four Rangers fight Arachnitor. Although Arachnitor overpowers the Rangers, Jayden and Antonio arrive in time to gives the Rangers their Power Disks back. The Rangers are able to knock Arachnitor down with the Quintuple Slash. Combined with the Rangers' Quintuple Slash, Antonio uses a spin attack to knock down Arachnitor as giant Moogers attack the city causing the Rangers to form the Megazords. While the Rangers fight the Moogers, Arachnitor escapes.

He later appears in "Super Samurai". With the Black Box finally working, he was destroyed by Red Ranger as a super samurai. He was destroyed the second time using the new Claw Armor Megazord and the Samurai Battle Cannon, which was used by blasting Arachnitor and his two Spitfangs he was using as cannons.
