Rocky DeSantos is notable for being one of the few Red Rangers not to actually lead a Power Rangers team. Others include Aurico and Wes Collins. The first Red non-leader was Jason who stepped down as leader just before he left the team. This is because Zordon chose the new leader to be Tommy, the White Ranger. However, Rocky is the first Red Ranger who never led. Usually, a Red Ranger who is not the leader of a Power Rangers team is second-in-command. However, Rocky's position as a red ranger wasn't second-in-command to Tommy it was Kimberly, the Pink Ranger.
