- Great Cannon is a Decepticon from the Operation Combination portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Great Cannon (グレートカノン Gurēto Kanon) is (most likely) the leader of the Battle Gaia team, which means he is (probably) the second-in-command to the Decepticon Scrash. He combines with his teammates to form the mighty Battle Gaia.
... look, they're not giving us a lot to work with here, okay?
