*Though the design is closer to his [[Laserbeak (G1)|G1 counterpart]], likely as part of Hasbro's push for consistent designs across the franchise, this could reasonably be believed to be [[Laserbeak (WFC)|the same Laserbeak]] from ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Prime]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 cartoon)|Robots in Disguise]]''.

Continuity notes
- Laserbeak is the first unambiguous, current Decepticon to appear in the Rescue Bots timeline; the prior show had the Cyclone Mini-Con Bounce, who was never stated explicitly to be a Decepticon, but as he was an escapee from the prison ship Alchemor, it's really really really likely he was. Of course, Grimlock and Wedge (as we learn in this episode) are both former 'Cons.
- Though the design is closer to his G1 counterpart, likely as part of Hasbro's push for consistent designs across the franchise, this could reasonably be believed to be the same Laserbeak from Prime and Robots in Disguise. Perceptor notes that Laserbeak "currently has no criminal record" and is "a free bot", with the phrasing suggesting that he has paid his debt to society and had his criminal record expunged.
- Whirl's lack of knowledge of the Decepticons, combined with Medix's referring to Cybertron's two factions in the past tense, suggests that Cybertron has long-since reunified by the time Rescue Bots Academy starts. The Decepticon Cyberwarp previously expressed hope that the two sides would someday come together in harmony back in the Robots in Disguise episode "Freedom Fighters", and it looks like they largely succeeded in the intervening years, despite the prejudices of bots like Hot Shot. This also seems to confirm the recruits, except Wedge, were "born" after the war.
