- Rattletrap is an Autobot from the Transformers Animated continuity family.
Rattletrap is that one 'bot who will tell you anything if you "persuade" him enough. He's kind of a dirty rat when you think about it. He is apparently in a relationship with Botanica[1].
Fiction
Animated cartoon
- Voice actor: Tom Kenny (English)
Rattletrap was among the crowd welcoming home Sentinel "Magnus" and cheering on the capture of several Decepticon prisoners. Decepticon Air
Rattletrap apparently gave info on Omega Supreme's activation codes to Shockwave. He was later interrogated by Ratchet and Captain Fanzone, who threatened to slime him if he didn't give them access to a high-security infirmary on Cybertron. This threat proved effective, but the access key card Rattletrap provided turned out not to work. Ultimately it didn't matter, as Jazz had been tailing them the whole time, and let them in.

Notes
- Rattletrap's name was not spoken in the episode in which he appeared. It was listed in the end credits.
- Rattletrap is an homage to Rattrap from Beast Wars, specifically his "Dawn of Future's Past" Cybertronian form. However, he's much more willing to work with the enemy than the original was...well, most of the time.
- Rattletrap's name comes off as a portmanteau of both his American name and his Japanese name (Rattle), but as "rattletrap" is actually a word (with an amusingly appropriate meaning), that's probably more of a coincidence than anything intentional.
- Rattletrap's face was given to Transformers fan Peaugh in the form of a Twitter avatar as a gift from Derrick Wyatt. Little did he know it was a spoiler in disguise!
- Rattletrap's voice owes a little more to Lou Costello than Rattrap's did.
