- Metallikato is a martial art from many continuity families.
Metallikato, owing to its heavy influence on spirituality, is believed to be the most obscurely practiced and potentially inaccessible of Cybertronian martial arts. Its teachings cull from a wide variety of other martial arts, such as Circuit-Su and Crystalocution, cumulatively emphasizing a variety of attack strategies, though bladed combat is its hallmark. Metallikato has a strict code of ethics to attune its "children" to the "One True Path" of the Ultimate Warrior, a figure of religious legend.
Known users of Metallikato
- Generation 1 Decepticon Pretender Bludgeon, the first in-fiction practitioner of Metallikato and still the most well-known.
- Rollbar of the Robots in Disguise universe also knows at least one Metallikato technique.

- The Cybertron Mini-Con Kobushi.
