:''Scrash is a [[Decepticon]] leader from the [[Operation Combination (franchise)|Operation Combination]] portion of the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

The mysterious Decepticon Führer<ref>"Sōtō", Scrash's title, can variously be translated as "supreme ruler", "president", "führer" or "generalissimo".</ref> '''Scrash''' (総統スクラッシュ ''Sōtō Sukurasshu'') commands the Decepticon forces from afar as they try to plunder the [[Earth]] of its energy. His troops consist of the mighty [[Battle Gaia]] and the [[Jet Corps]]. He apparently turns into a large jet.<ref>Takara's TF Telephone audio adventures</ref>

==Fiction==
===''Operation Combination'' story pages===
Commanding the Decepticons from a distance, Scrash ordered [[Battle Gaia]] and the [[Jet Corps]] to attack the [[Earth]] and plunder it of energy. The Decepticons only made it as far as Earth's orbit, where they were defeated by the [[Autobot Scrum Combination]]. Scrash did not actually participate in the battle at all, which in hindsight, might have helped its outcome a little. {{storylink|Operation Combination (story page)|Conclusion}}

Later, alongside [[Flash Wing]], [[Deathplay]], [[Darkfly]] and [[Sharp Edge (OC)|Sharp Edge]], Scrash made another bid to conquer Earth, this time joining in on the battle in his massive jet mode. Unfortunately for him and his minions, he was defeated by the new Autobots defending Earth, but primarily [[Sixbuilder]], and never heard from again. {{storylink|Generation 1 cartoon timeline (Japan)/src#After 2025|Kiss Players timeline}}

==Toys==
No toy of Scrash was ever released, nor did he actually ''appear'' in any fiction; he is mentioned in background material for ''Operation Combination''. The conjecture is that Scrash would have been the toy known as [[Skyquake (G1)|Skyquake]]. The use of the [[Turbomaster|Turbomasters]] and [[Predator|Predators]] in the ''Operation Combination'' toyline seems to support this, as does the fact that in some European markets Skyquake was sold under the name '''Crash'''. Skyquake was also released in Japan in the European packaging, with only some legal information on the back changed to Japanese, which seems to bear the idea out further.

The Animated Allspark Almanac II goes along with this theory by showing an animated character called "Air General Scrash" who looks very much like Skyquake.
