====Energon====
Terradive is ''almost'' always shown only as a limb to Superion Maximus.  He was shown as a separate jet once or twice, but under the direct control of the Superion Maximus consciousness. It is therefore unknown whether or not Terradive and the other limbs are alive, let alone sapient.


He also appeared once as a separate jet in a video game [[Hot Shot (Armada)|Hot Shot]] was playing.  Could this mean that he later starred in ''Captain C, the Game Master'' alongside [[Nekomimi A and Nekomimi B|a pair of robot-catgirl-maid sidekicks?]]. Most assuredly it does not.


Later, he got exploded like [[Dr. Lucy Suzuki|the hollow-earth theory]] in a fight with [[Bruticus Maximus]].  {{storylink|Spark (Energon episode)|Spark}}

The name or term "Terradive" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Terradive (disambiguation).
Terradive is an Autobot from the Energon portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

Terradive is one of the five Air Team robots who make up the legendary super robot Superion Maximus. Who knows what mysterious thoughts lurked inside his gun-turret head? One would think he'd be prone to migraines. Alas, Terradive, we hardly knew you.


Japanese name: Skydive

Fiction

Energon cartoon

When the current Decepticon leader Megatron discovered a hidden chamber and four ancient, towering guardians, he destroyed one of the Autobot guardians, reactivating the ones that remained and revealing the the Super Energon pool they had been guarding for countless years. Ambition Superion Maximus awoke to find his brother dead, with the Decepticon leader claiming the Super Energon for himself, absorbing its power to become Galvatron. Superion tried to stop him to no avail, so he split up into the Air Team and escaped, with Bruticus Maximus and Constructicon Maximus in hot pursuit. Wishes

During a virtual training match between the Autobots and Decepticons, Terradive was part of Storm Jet's Air Team, fighting the Destruction Team and the Construction Team. The Autobots combined into Superion Maximus to take one both Bruticus Maximus and Constructicon Maximus, but were eventually defeated. Distribution

Terradive and the Air Team had their revenge against the Destruction and Construction teams during a final show down with the treacherous Decepticon combiners. Bruticus Maximus and Constructicon Maximus double teamed Superion Maximus, who held his own, managing to briefly fend off Bruticus before crushing Constructicon's spark. However, Bruticus Maximus recovered and destroyed Terradive and the other three Superion limbs, leaving Storm Jet alone. Spark
