Technically the rumors were never debunked it was just reported by Amit that he saw footage of Lokar in a Zyu2 'episode' but that could've been after they had edited it since no stock shots were seen in the Zyu2 footage.

What about that blast Pythor? Why was he created? Was he a Zyuranger/Kakuranger reject?

I actually do not think Jeff has anymore monsters. The ones we saw all heavily included reshoots to include Z-Putties and "Loosing his Powers" subplot for the Green Ranger. Jeff, after all, was the Stunt Coordinator, it would make sense for him to recieve the Japanese footage for necessary similar shoots.
yea there are a lot of questions remaining such as the unseen Giant Pumpkin Rapper battle, where Pythor came from and if it was an unseen Zyu2 creation and of course we really don't know what Jeff has in his collection he was only credited for 151-160 of the first season which would've been the following episodes:

Grumble Bee
Two Heads Are Better Than One
Fowl Play
Enter The... Lizzinator
Trick or Treat
On Fins and Needles
Second Chance
Football Season
Mighty Morphin' Mutants
An Oyster Stew

and all of those would include Zyu2 creations so let's see shall we? There would be Grumble Bee, the Two Headed Parrot, Peckster, Lizzinator, Pumpkin Rapper, Slippery Shark, Soccadillo, Rhinoblaster, Commander Crayfish and Oysterizer and out of those it looks like we only have Oysterizer.

exactly there was Zyu 1.5 footage that just featured Rita, Goldar, Scorpina, Finster, Squatt and Baboo doing their motions in the Palace but sometimes they were outside but there was Zyu2 footage that focused on new monsters fighting the Rangers along with the Zyuranger mecha you know generally the Dinozords, the Megazord and the Dragonzord and sometimes the ground fights would also include Finster's Putties.
