Phase Sixer

When Megatron finalized the phased infiltration process, he selected three of his Warriors Elite to become Phase Sixers. These ultra-powerful 'bots would unleash their destructive powers on worlds that were on the brink of collapse, ravaging them utterly so they could be stripped of resources by the Decepticons.

The three known Phase Six Decepticons are:

Some Cybertronians are markedly more powerful than others: Optimus, Grimlock, Megatron. Fort Max on a good day. I think those are your "once-in-a-generation" bots. But they pale in comparison - all of them - they pale when compared with Overlord and Sixshot and "Tarn".{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:Prowl on the power level of Phase Six 'bots, "Remembrance Day"|Prowl on the power level of Phase Six 'bots, "Remembrance Day"{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

While Overlord was fighting a campaign on the world of Caldoon 4, Megatron summoned him to a tele-conference, announcing to him, Sixshot and Black Shadow that they would be his Phase Sixers. Overlord questioned the plan, refused his orders, and deserted from the Decepticon army, apparently for the sole reason of coercing Megatron to pursue him. This completely and totally failed. He went on to take over Garrus-9 in another attempt to gain Megatron's attention, his reign so sadistic that even the Decepticons under his control were desperate to escape, but the only attention he eventually gained was that of the Wreckers. Last Stand of the Wreckers

Sixshot and Black Shadow would go on to perform their duties for many years and came to be feared names among the Autobots.

Black Shadow's undoing came when he accepted half a billion Shanix from the Autobots in exchange for blowing up the Decepticons' fleet of War Worlds. The Decepticon Justice Division captured, tortured and executed him for the betrayal. Rules of Disengagement

Sixshot, meanwhile, had many battles of his own, but faced a lonely life as he was feared by foe and comrade alike.
