Notes
- The Crushing Buffalo Raider is the first monster in Kamen Rider Zero-One to use a Progrisekey to transform rather than a Zetsumerisekey. He is also the first monster transformed from a human instead of a HumaGear.
- Crushing Buffalo Raider's Buffablow and white humanoid legs are likely a reference to Taurus being known for missing it's lower body.
