'''Rartorata''' (ラートラータ ''Rātorāta'', also spelled Rartorarta, Rartalarta, Roto-Rooter, Ratatouille, and Nancy) is a cruel servitor of [[Unicron]] with an impossibly goofy name that basically fails to make sense in any language, be it human or [[Cybertronian language|Cybertronian]]. Rartorata is easily the most vicious of the Blendtron trio, ready to sacrifice anything, even his team-mates [[Elephorca]] and [[Drancron]], to accomplish his mission.

Besides transforming into a hideous fish/bee monster, Rattata carries a "ceremonial rapid-fire poison arrow launcher", which may in fact make him some kind of ninja. Sometimes there are lots of him.

You go, Lartarartolarltorartlroar.

===''Beast Wars Neo'' manga===
Rat Tortilla, like the other Blendtrons, was produced in mass numbers by [[Unicron]] in his "Black Ball" form, and were sent out to seek [[Angolmois]] capsules. One of the planets they attacked was [[Jörmungandr]], where they exterminated most of the population but were unable to find the Angolmois capsule there.

When [[Magmatron]]'s troops dwindled, the Black Ball, who was manipulating the Maximals and the Predacons to gather the Angolmois, offered its Blendtrons as replacements. {{Storylink|A Battle Fought Alone}} With the Blendtrons, Magmatron set up a trap at an amphitheater floating in [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] orbit for the [[Maximal]]s. When the trap was sprung and [[Big Convoy]] was forced to give up the Angolmois capusles to save his underlings, a Tartarot subsequently backstabbed Magmatron, revealing the Blendtrons' true allegiance to [[Unicron]]! When six capsules were consumed by the Black Ball, Unicron revealed himself, but admitted that he was incomplete without the Angolmois energy found in both Magmatron and Big Convoy. The Blendtrons were sicced on the two, but were all defeated by Big Convoy and Magmatron on their way to attack Unicron himself. {{storylink|Double Cross}}

After Unicron acquired the Angolmois he needed from Magmatron and obtained Cybertron as a new body, he was lured to the [[Georgian]] system by the Maximals. There, Unicron was trapped by crowded and exploding planets. The Maximals picked the opportunity to attack, but Unicron spat out another Blendtron army to confront the Maximals. They were held at bay by the Maximals, allowing Big Convoy to make the final strike on Unicron. {{storylink|Return to Zero}}

In the wake of Unicron's [[The Void! (US)|last]] attempt at eating Cybertron, the hidden cells of [[Acolyte of Unicron|cultists]] continued to operate in secret. As the dead god's consciousness called out to his scattered followers, Larrylatta was chosen to be reformatted into a Blendtron. Joining with former construction bot [[Elephorca]] and ex-gladiator [[Drancron]], he was instructed by the Chaos Bringer to help gather malcontents to the warlord [[Shokaract]]. {{storylink|Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook #3}}

Flattering their "leader" and offering him capsules of [[Angolmois]], the Blendtrons convinced Shokaract they were facilitating his ascension to the pantheon of [[Lord of Chaos|Dark Gods]] that spawned Unicron himself. As his [[Matrix of Conquest|Anti-Matrix]] filled, he would be transfigured and Cybertron would be remade in his image. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 1|The Ascending #1}} However, they were in secret agents of Unicron, seeking only to use Shokaract as a "vessel" for the resurrection of their true patron.

Raratartarsauce was dispatched by Unicron to Earth to deal with the possible threat of the gathered Maximal and Predacon troops, and upon arriving immediately stung [[Razorbeast]], turning him into a raging feral animal. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 2|The Ascending #2}} Subdued by the combined Maximal and Predacon forces, Rakorata was freed when his fellow Blendtrons arrived. Razorbeast told his allies to flee as he charged in to take on the immense Blendtron. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 3|The Ascending #3}} Ralorata was ultimately destroyed when [[Lazorbeak]] and [[Spittor (BW)|Spittor]] impaled Drancron on his stinger, causing a volatile Angolmois reaction that eradicated them all. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 4|The Ascending #4}}

*'''Rātorāta''' (Deluxe Blentron, 1999)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''X-6'''
**''Accessories'': Spring-loaded "ceremonial rapid-fire poison arrow launcher", "poison arrow"

: Lertlerta is a barely-altered [[redeco]] of the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' Deluxe [[Fuzor]] [[Injector]], transforming into a hornet-lionfish fusion. Pressing down on a plate on the back of his head in either mode tilts it forward and deploys spring-loaded spines on his skull. His [[beast mode]] stinger detaches to form a spring loaded missile launcher (the aforementioned "ceremonial rapid-fire poison arrow launcher").

: Basically, the only differences between Rappakaffalatta and Injector are that Throatwarbler Mangrove has a lighter, charcoal gray plastic instead of Injector's black, plus his [[rubsign]] uses the Blentron [[insignia]] rather than the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] one.

==Notes==
*Many attempts were made to [[Romanization|romanize]] the character's nonsense name until finally, in 2007, the [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] ''Beast Wars'' comics set down a canonical English name for the little fella. Which ''still'' doesn't make any goddamn sense. It's like the whole [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]] thing all over again, only there wasn't an option that looked like it ''meant'' anything. You'd think they could have just called him "Dave" or something.
*One vaguely likely explanation for the name of this guy is that the scientific name for a species of lionfish is ''Pterois '''lunulata''''', and even that's a bit of a stretch. Considering 'L' is pronounced like an 'R' in Japanese, this seems the most likely explanation... well, the ''only'' explanation.
