## Characters

### Pretty Cures

Based in their RV, the Ginjiro-go (ギンジロー号, *Ginjirō-gō*?), the Go On! Pretty Cure! team is composed of the core three and two back-up members who support the main team. Advertisements for the series show that the first kana in the Go On Cures' surnames spell "ecology" (「え・こ・ろ・じ・い」（エコロジー） , *"E-Ko-Ro-Ji-I" (ekorojī)*?)in Japanese. They come from the Human World and the Engines come from the Machine World. One kanji in each of the five Go On Cures' given names contains a variation of the radical for "cart" (車, *kurumahen*?).

She witnessed the Cures in their first battles against the Gaiark, with her investigation of them allowing her to become a Pretty Cure herself.

Before settling on Bomper's pink-and-white color scheme, Jum-bowhale had originally designed her to be covered with colorful dots.

#### Engines

*Source:Wikipedia. I did not write this. All rights go to the author.*

The Go On Cures' mecha are the Engines (炎神, *Enjin*?), denizens of Machine World with some of them pursuing the Barbaric Machine Clan Gaiark, choosing the Go-ongers as their partners to fight the Gaiark with them. While in the Human World, the Engines cannot exist in their full size and thus remove their Engine Souls to assume small forms called Engine Casts (炎神キャスト, *Enjin Kyasuto*?) which are kept in the Engine Attache (炎神アタッシュ, *Enjin Atasshu*?) until they are needed, resuming their true size on Earth for only 10 minutes, or suffer fatal rusting. But to fight, the Engines need the aid of humans to resume their true forms, with their hearts allowing the Engines to assume more powerful forms. Among Engines are two races, the large Gian Race (ジャイアン族, *Jaian Zoku*?) that can combine with other Engines and the rare Wing Race (ウイング族, *Uingu Zoku*?) that are masters of aerial combat. After the defeat of Yogoshimacritein, the Engines depart back to their homeworld until Speedor later returns to ask their partner to aid them again with the Gaiark President.

While as Engine Souls, they can communicate via any henshin device to give advice to the Go On Cures, appearing as cartoony holograms with features like teeth, mouths, and other body parts not present as an Engine.

**Engine Speedor** (炎神スピードル, *Enjin Supīdoru*?)

Engine Speedor is Cure Turbo's partner, a hybrid between a condor and a racing car who ends his sentences with "Drrrr Drrrr!" (ドルドル！, *Doru Doru!*?).

His engine pipes spout out flames in his Speedor Burst (スピードルバースト, *Supīdoru Bāsuto*?) attack. His speed is unmatched and able to travel the length of Japan at full speed of 1000 km/h within three hours. Speedor can assume "Accel Full Throttle", a "semi-flying" mode where Speedor uses his talons for attacks, but he can only glide.

**Engine Bus-on** (炎神バスオン, *Enjin Basuon*?)

Engine Bus-On is Cure Speed's partner, a hybrid between a lion and a bus who is the Edokko spirit of the group and ends his sentences with "Onon Ooonn!" (オンオン！, *On'on!*?).

Enjin Basuon dei*?). He has brute strength and Bus-on Missiles (バスオンミサイル, *Basuon Misairu*?).

Engine BearRV is Cure Racer's partner, a gutsy hybrid between a bear and an 4WD truck who speaks Kansai-ben and ends her sentences with "Vvvvv Vvvv!" (ブイブイ！, *Bui Bui!*?).

Her spunky pep is due to her not being a picky eater, eating even enemy aircraft in her Bearr Attack (ベアールアタック, *Beāru Atakku*?), and her technique is Bearr Press (ベアールプレス, *Beāru Puresu*?) and V V Missiles (ブイブイミサイル, *Bui Bui Misairu*?).

**Engine Birca** (炎神バルカ, *Enjin Baruka*?)

Known as a sniper for his cannon nose, the Gunpherd Gun (ガンパードガン, *Ganpādo Gan*?), Gunpherd pursues enemies in a hot chase with an equally burning sense of justice and precise sense of smell.

Enjin Kyarigētā de gozaru*?). Being of the powerful and legendary Gian Clan, Carrigator can combine with any Engine without need of a human partner. Though he came on Earth to fight the Gaiark, he teams up with Miu and Yoko to understand the concept of "partner". His only known flaws are that he takes much more time being charged than the other Engines, as well as being a voracious eater (in fact, his Engine Soul is slipped into his mouth).

Because he and the other Ancient Engines came to the Human World during the time of the dinosaurs, which was called Dino World (ダイナワールド, *Daina Wārudo*?) at the time, they are unable to speak the human languages like the modern Engines. However, Kishamoth has a peaceful nature in spite of trying not to sound rough, and he easily trusts both the humans and the modern Engines. The onomatopoeic description of Kishamoth's trumpeting is "Pao pao!!" (パオパオー!, *Pao Paō!*?). When fully introducing himself, his trumpets are translated as "Departing from ancient times, full speed ahead. Engine Kishamoth" (古代発で出発進行！炎神 キシャモスだよ, *Kodai hatsu de shuppatsu shinkō!

Engine of wishes, T-line" (上るぜ！のぞみの炎神ティライン, *Noboru ze! Nozomi no Enjin Tirain*?).
