Animated cartoon
- Voice actor: George Takei (English)
During the final stages of the Great War, when the Elite Guardsman Warpath dragged in a young draft-dodger named Prowl, Yoketron decided to train him instead of throwing him the Stockade. Prowl was a rebellious and cocky young upstart at the time, and so Yoketron tried to humble and ground him. Yoketron stripped him of his weapons and mods, and slowly trained Prowl in the ways of the ninja.
After Prowl was close to finishing his Cyber-Ninja training, Yoketron revealed that he hoped Prowl would become his replacement. He showed Prowl a vast, hidden chamber behind his quarters which stowed an army of unborn protoforms, the Autobot army's last resort in the war. But Prowl was unable to mimic Yoketron's usage of processor-over-matter to seal the chamber, so Yoketron sent him on an "optics quest" to find his center.
However, while Prowl was gone, one of Yoketron's former students, Lockdown, betrayed him, stealing most of the protoforms for the Decepticons, and leaving Yoketron to die. Prowl returned during the aftermath, and he attempted to revive Yoketron by transferring his spark to a protoform that had been left behind. Though Yoketron formed from the new Protoform, Yoketron chastised Prowl for not accepting fate, telling him he "...must not sacrifice a piece of the future to bring back the past." As he told Prowl that he would understand when his time came, Yoketron relinquished his spark, and his new body grayed. Five Servos of Doom
