- The Rainmakers are Decepticons from the Generation 1 continuity family.
The Decepticons known colloquially as the Rainmakers are part of Shockwave's forces on Cybertron. Each one is a Seeker with a bright, single-color paint job. (The green member, Acid Storm, did find a more exciting palette.) They retain their original Cybertronic "tetrajet" alternate modes.
As their name implies, they can make rain. Acid rain.
Fiction
Generation 1 cartoon
When a group of Autobots (and Chip Chase) journeyed to Cybertron to fetch a cosmotron for a wounded Optimus Prime, Megatron sent the trio to make things difficult for our heroes with some acid rain.
Guess what? They failed. Divide and Conquer
Notes
- The term "rainmakers" was originally used by Bluestreak as a colloquial description of their actions. However, repeated fan usage has turned this into a widely accepted name for the group, which was eventually made official as such by Hasbro's bio for Acid Storm.
- There is a fairly common piece of fanon which identifies the yellow Rainmaker with Sunstorm (G1), but the official record is silent on the matter.
- The acid rain only affected the Autobots. Chip Chase was utterly unharmed. Make of that what you will.
