:''Rartorata is a [[Blendtron]] from the [[Beast Wars Neo (franchise)|Beast Wars Neo]] portion of the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

'''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 languages|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.

While his resemblance to [[Injector]] has been noted by the Predacon forces, he is apparently ''much'' bigger than the Fuzor.

You go, Lartarartolarltorartlroar.

In the wake of Unicron's [[The Void! (US)|last]] attempt at eating Cybertron, the hidden cells of [[Unicron cultist|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|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 [[Lords 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 (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'' something. 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.
