:''Moon is a transforming bunny from the [[Beast Wars II]] portion of the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

'''Moon''' is a relic from the past of the planet [[Gaia]]. While a transforming bunny rabbit, he is not of [[Cybertron|Cybertronian]] origin. He is stationed on the moon orbiting the planet along with his partner, [[Artemis]]. Together, they watch the battle unfold between the [[Maximal|Maximals]] and the [[Predacon|Predacons]], gathering data in secret. He also ends every sentence with the word "moon".

Moon's special ability is the power to become invisible. He's also remarkably good at saying things that upset Artemis. He's ''not'' so good at avoiding the giant red mallet Artemis swings at his skull when she's upset, however.

'''Voice actor:''' ''[[Junko Takeuchi]] (Japan)''

Moon, along with Artemis, watched over the Beast Wars on planet Gaia, gathering information on the events and organizing the data. At first they made a stern effort not to interact with the Transformers on Gaia, until [[Galvatron (BWII)|Galvatron]] summoned the battleship [[Nemesis (BWII)|Nemesis]], which threatened the entire planet.

Choosing to side with the Maximals, Moon and Artemis aided the good guys in reaching the Nemesis from Gaia and were instrumental in the final battle.

After the defeat of [[Unicron]], both Moon and Artemis were invited to stay on [[Cybertron]] and helped rebuild the war-torn planet.

* With Artemis, Moon appears as a secret character in the Japanese Gameboy Color cross-series [[Duel Fight Transformers Beast Wars: Beast Warriors' Strongest Decisive Battle|Beast Wars fighting game]].

* Moon's packaging features a unique [[Robot Points|Beast Points]] symbol that was seemingly used nowhere else.

* A pocket-sized Japanese guide book to ''Beast Wars II'' contains an early concept drawing of Moon. It shows that at one time a bizarre-looking, vaguely lemur-like creature with huge ears and a pierced tail was considered.

*Gaia is future Earth (as stated in Leo Prime's [[Robot Masters]] bio). This means that Moon is from Earth, sometime long before ''Beast Wars II'' takes place.
