:''Six Shot is a [[Decepticon]] [[Triple Changer]] from the [[Energon (franchise)|Energon]] portion of the [[Unicron Trilogy]] [[Continuity family|continuity family]].''

'''Six Shot''' is the [[Relatives|younger brother]] of [[Shockblast]]. But where his brother is a berserker, Six Shot is more of a shifty weasel who prefers to lie, connive, and back-stab rather than confront foes directly. Despite their differences, the two brothers appear to be loyal to each other. A mechanical engineer by trade, he is mainly out for himself, and enjoys causing chaos.

In his off time, Six Shot enjoys reading comic books about [[Nekomimi A and Nekomimi B|catgirls]].

Six Shot was incarcerated between the [[Unicron Battles]] and arrival of the [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcons]] for his continued attempts at prolonging the civil conflicts between the [[Autobot|Autobots]] and [[Decepticon|Decepticons]] even after the two sides reached a truce. Six Shot was freed shortly after Shockblast's death, and was misled by [[Cyclonus (Armada)|Snow Cat]] into believing [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]] had killed his brother. {{storylink|Ambition}}

Six Shot designed many weapons systems on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], including the large particle cannons that he and his brother [[Shockblast]] use so effectively. With the help of Demolishor, he secured control of the Autobots' energon grid. {{storylink|Wishes}} Six Shot was actually able to hack into the Autobots' training program and allow some of his Decepticon allies to insert themselves into the simulation, as well as grant himself a sort of "God Mode" over the program code and create a simulation of his own brother to fight alongside him. {{storylink|Distribution}}

After many attempts to destroy Optimus Prime in defiance of [[Megatron (Armada)|Galvatron]]'s orders, Six Shot rebelled and tried to race Galvatron to the [[Super Energon]] chamber. Nearly destroying Galvatron, [[Scorponok (Energon)|Scorponok]] intervened and fought Six Shot to a standstill just long enough for a repowered Galvatron, now several stories tall, to emerge and stomp Six Shot to bits for his treason. Before he died Six Shot told Scorponok that he was finally free but Scorponok felt that the price for his freedom was to high. {{storylink|Galvatron Terror}}

*'''Six Shot''' (Mega, 2005)
**''Accessories'': Missile

: Six Shot is a redeco of the Energon [[Shockblast]] toy, transforming into a Cybertronic laser-tank, as well as a satellite-cannon. His cannon-arm contains a spring-loaded missile launcher and an electronic sound gimmick (which refuses to shut up most of the time).

: Many specimens of this toy have the same problem: In satellite mode, a peg on one of his legs will not fit into the corresponding slot to hold the mode together. Also, his torso connects to his legs via a ''very'' small hinge, which is quite susceptible to breaking.

: This mold was also used as the basis for the non-toy pre-beast version of [[Cryotek (RID)|Cryotek]] as seen in "[[Theft of the Golden Disk]]".

==Notes==
*Even though initially announced as "Six Shot", an early version of his [[bio]] card posted at Hasbro's official Transformers website listed his name as "Scattorshot" instead, previously a working name for [[Blight (Energon)|Blight]]. The name was soon changed back to "Six Shot", however, and the toy was only ever sold under that name. The name "Scattorshot" was ultimately used on a [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)|character]] from the follow-up series, ''[[Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]''.

*And speaking of the bio card: While it described Six Shot (or "Scattorshot") as a "cunning Decepticon warrior", the [[Tech Spec]] stats only gave him a "4" in "intelligence". This was just one of many examples with the poorly thought out ''Energon'' bios at that time. (Things got vastly better with ''Cybertron''.)

* Despite his prominent role in the Japanese-made cartoon, Six Shot was not made available as part of the Japanese ''Super Link'' toyline.

* In the Hungarian dub of ''Energon'', Six Shot is voiced by an old man (two, to be exact; one in his introduction episode, the other in the rest of the series), which kind of messes up his "younger brother" issue.

* Several times in the English dub, Six Shot is [[Energon (cartoon)#Production flaws|mistaken for his brother]].
