For the [[Decepticon|Decepticons]], however, he has a plethora of mean practical jokes that range from simply annoying to lethal. Many Decepticons have found themselves trapped in unexpected traffic, then ambushed by the Autobots, all thanks to Smokescreen's chicanery.
During the [[Unicron Singularity]] crisis, Smokescreen served aboard the Autobot flagship ''[[Iron Hope]]''. He was called into action during a Decepticon attack on the ship, and battled a number of [[Divebomb (Energon)|Divebomb]] and [[Insecticon (Energon)|Insecticon]]-type [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcons]] alongside [[RipTide]], [[Ironhide (Energon)|Ironhide]] and the [[Land Military Mini-Con Team]]. {{storylink|Force of Habit|Force of Habit}}

Plugging a [[Cyber Planet Key]] into the back end of his bumper flips up a pair of non-firing rocket launchers, a feature also usable in robot mode. His rear spoiler also contains a spring-loaded missile launcher which becomes a hand-held weapon in robot mode. The rear side-panels can flip around to the front to form non-firing hip-mounted guns as well.

==Trivia==
* Though Smokescreen is obviously an [[Homage|homage]] to [[Generation 1]] [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]], according to [[Joe Kyde]], his deco artist, his robot mode is also an homage to the [[Action Master]] [[Rad (G1)|Rad]], taking various color elements, particularly the helmet.
* It's possible the reason "Smokescreen" was chosen as the theme of this redeco was because "Smokescreen" was an early name for the base mold, Crosswise. Crosswise was also called "Smokescreen" in his early appearances on the [[Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]] cartoon, however these episodes were subsequently edited to give him his correct name.
* The original Hasbro stock photos and test shots of Smokescreen gave him colorless clear plastic windows and flame-missile. In the final version, they have a blue tint.
