I thought this was self-explanatory but this is FOR GOKAIGER ONLY! The Gokaiger become past Rangers from the past 34 teams. They borrow or copy the powers. When a female becomes a male character, she dons a skirt. When a male becomes a female character, the skirt is gone. They are NOT REPLACING the warriors, rangers or heroes. This is only for the 2011 Super Sentai series. The five of them briefly become Red Rangers in Goseiger vs. Shinkenger and the second episode of Gokaiger.
This whole skirt-switching thing has become a big debate among Sentai fans (even Japanese fans). I don't know about Japanese fans. I just want to say that this is no way the end (some fans thinks this is the end of Sentai) and just because Gokai Yellow dons a skirt when she becomes Big One, doesn't mean Big One himself is gaining a skirt, nor that it is permanent. It is not him, it is Gokai Yellow. Here are pictures I made for fans that may not be familiar with the suits, or the layperson who might not know how many were changed for Go-Kaiger.

Ki Ranger (初代キレンジャー), Yellow becomes Big One (ビッグワン), Yellow becomes Battle Cossack (バトルコサック), Denji Yellow (デンジイエロー), Vul Panther (バルパンサー), Goggle Yellow (ゴーグルイエロー), Dyna Yellow (ダイナイエロー), Yellow Lion (イエローライオン), Blue can become Blue Dolphin (ブルードルフィン), Pink becomes Black Bison (ブラックバイソン), and Gokai Yellow can become Yellow Turbo (イエローターボ). 
Pink becomes Go-On Black (ゴーオンブラック), Pink becomes GekiChopper (ゲキチョッパー), Gokai Blue becomes MagiBlue (マジブルー), Yellow becomes Magi Yellow (マジイエロー), Hurricane Yellow (陸忍ハリケンイエロー), Gokai Blue becomes Hurricanger Blue (水忍ハリケンブルー ), Pink becomes Kuwagata Raiger (牙忍クワガライジャー), Gokai Yellow becomes GaoYellow (ガオイエロー), Time Yellow (タイムイエロー), Go Yellow (ゴーイエロー), Ginga Yellow (ギンガイエロー), Tiger Ranger ( タイガーレンジャー), Ninja Yellow (ニンジャイエロー), Kirin Ranger (キリンレンジャー), Yellow Owl (イエローオウル), Gokai Blue becomes Blue Swallow (ブルースワロー), Yellow and Pink became Geki Red (ゲキレッド), and Pink and Yellow became Magi Red (マジレッド). And in Episode 3, Yellow became Ninja Black.This is why I love Super Sentai and Toei, they are always mixing it up. They establish the rules (most girls get skirts, most girls are white, yellow, pink and sometimes blue), and then break it all down. Yes, there is still no female green, violet, or other colors, but we have gone a long way so far.
I wanted to know if the Japanese fans felt the same way and I found this:

And they do say 'Why does Big One have a skirt?' and 'Miss America has a deeper Pink.' and 'Pink is not the place that you mention it Abarekiller.' Some interesting comments were: "It is a sexy Kuwagaraija." They also speculate that the Sixth Ranger might summon Rangers like Kamen Rider Diend. The grammar is off because of google translator. Someone was even asking about Mele and Rio.
