{{Welcome}}
However, please don't upload screenshots taken from illegal camrips. [[User:Jalaguy|Jalaguy]] ([[User talk:Jalaguy|talk]]) 11:48, 11 July 2014 (EDT)

== Screenshots ==

Hi, when you upload screenshots, can you please upload them as jpegs instead of pngs? pngs take up more space. Also please take the time to give them a proper name and description. --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 05:37, 20 March 2016 (EDT)
:To elaborate, for RID screenshots you should paste the following template into the "Summary" field and fill out the relevant information:
::<nowiki>{{RID2015cap|A description of what the screencap shows.|The title of the episode|The last digit of the episode's year, such as 6 for 2016}}</nowiki>
:Thanks. [[User:Jalaguy|Jalaguy]] ([[User talk:Jalaguy|talk]]) 05:57, 20 March 2016 (EDT)
::So long as the pose doesn't make it hard to see what the character actually looks like, it's absolutely fine to have stock art as main images rather than screenshots, and is in fact generally preferable.
::Also, please remember to also give your images descriptive filenames. [[User:Jalaguy|Jalaguy]] ([[User talk:Jalaguy|talk]]) 07:57, 20 March 2016 (EDT)
:::And, again, please upload as JPGs, not PNGs. --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 15:30, 20 March 2
::::Sorry, when uploading screenshots from my phone, it only allows me to set them as PNGs - Junkheap117
:::::Can you upload them a different way then? Uploading them as PNG files just means someone else has to repeat all your work again. --[[User:Abates|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates|talk]]) 15:18, 21 March 2016 (EDT)
I completely understand, but when uploading from my ohone, the setting for screencaps in png, and i cant seem to change it. Sorry

{{Imagesize}}
Please don't upload files as PNGs. You can easily convert them to JPGs using programs like Microsoft Paint.[[User:Grum|Grum]] ([[User talk:Grum|talk]]) 15:49, 21 March 2016 (EDT)
:I'll be frank: please stop uploading images. You are not paying attention to any considerations like filenames, image types, page formatting, quality, or whether we actually ''need'' them. That you can only do it via your phone is not our problem and we don't have time to clean up your messes. [[User:Saix|Saix]] ([[User talk:Saix|talk]]) 16:13, 21 March 2016 (EDT)

:''Ped is a lousy bot-worm of a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]] portion of the [[Aligned continuity family]].''
[[File:Images-2.jpeg|thumb|right|350px|[[Wikipedia:Dexter's Laboratory|HA-ha-HA! HA-ha-HA ha-HA!]]]]

The hulking Decepticon '''Ped''' would be a loyal and effective foot soldier in the Decepticon army... if not for his crippling inferiority complex. Seen as figuratively and literally beneath other Decepticons, Ped stews in his resentment and makes plans to finally come out on top one day. Luckily for his enemies, Ped isn't terribly bright, and easily goaded.

It's not that he doesn't have some skills. There are fewer who can tunnel through the underground as fast and efficiently as Ped, a skill he uses to conduct sneak attacks and avoid direct conflict. If he really ''needs'' to fight, he can sting foes with his mandibles, or simply smash them apart with his claws. But up-close combat isn't really his thing, so he sticks with keeping his foes disoriented, or at least at the bottom of a deep pit so he can work uninterrupted and escape easily.

Ped was one of the many Decepticons imprisoned aboard the ''[[Alchemor]]''. When the ship crash-landed on [[Earth]], he was freed from his [[stasis pod]]. He set up a network of tunnels and begun scrounging [[energon cube]]s scattered by the ship's crash, hoping to monopolize the precious resource so that he could negotiate with other Decepticons. He eventually attacked a [[human]] construction site to recover an energon cube. Not long afterwards, he raided [[Denny Clay]]'s scrapyard and stole most of their stockpiled energon. [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]] and his team - along with [[Jazz (WFC)|Jazz]]- travelled into the tunnels to recover their energon. Bumblebee and [[Strongarm (RID)|Strongarm]] encountered him digging, and realized that his constant tunneling had undermined part of [[Crown City]]. Ped escaped after he realized that [[Sideswipe (WFC)|Sideswipe]] and [[Jazz (WFC)|Jazz]] had found his Energon stash. Ped attacked Sideswipe and disabled him; Jazz's sonic weapons collapsed the tunnel, and Ped escaped with the energon in the confusion.

The Autobots later set up a trap to lure Ped aboveground and recapture him. However, they did not allow for the possibility that Ped would attack Denny and [[Russell Clay]] instead of beelining for the energon. Ped incapacitated the other Autobots by dropping them into a sinkhole. Sideswipe managed to escape the pit and goaded Ped into attacking him. He was joined by Jazz, and together the two managed to bait the enraged Decepticon back into his stasis pod, at which point Denny dropped an electromagnet on his head. {{storylink|Can You Dig It?}}

**''Set number'': '''B0950'''
**''Pieces'': '''198'''
**''Kreons'': [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Underbite|Optimus Prime]], Ped, [[Underbite#Kre-O)|Underbite]]

:The Ped [[Kreon]] is only available as part of the largest set in the 2015 ''Robots in Disguise''-branded ''Kre-O'' product. He uses an orc helmet from the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' series, which gives him the show model's mandibles.

:All of the 2015 ''Transformers [[Kre-O]]'' product was skipped by retailers in the US (at first), seeing release in Canada, Australia and various Asian markets. In late 2015, much of the line was finally released at discount in the US through TJ Maxx stores, including this set.

==Notes==
* "Ped" is a term for a soil aggregate. A piece of dirt. Oof.
* The Japanese pronunciation of his name is extremely unfortunate.
* Ped's paralyzing bite and digging capabilities are similar to the [[w:Mongolian death worm|Mongolian death worm]], except, you know, he has arms, legs and a face... and is a truck.
* He doesn't seem too fond over his similarities to a worm.

===Foreign names===
