- Ion Storm is a Decepticon from the cartoon portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
One of the formidable Rainmakers, Ion Storm is an electrokinetic, able to personally generate EMPs.
Fiction
The Transformers cartoon
When a group of Autobots (and Chip Chase) journeyed to Cybertron to fetch a cosmitron for a wounded Optimus Prime, Megatron sent the Rainmaker trio, including Ion Storm, to make things difficult for our heroes with some acid rain.
Guess what? They failed. Divide and Conquer
Ask Vector Prime
The Rainmakers were among the deadliest subordinates of Shockwave on Cybertron and Earth in many universal streams. Vector Prime considered himself fortunate to have never encountered an iteration of Ion Storm. Vector Prime noted, though, that if Primax 509.28 Epsilon's Ion Storm tried to disable all electronics in an area, then Ion Storm's EMP would affect himself as well. Ask Vector Prime
Merchandise
The Loyal Subjects
- Rainmakers (2013)
- Accessories: Pegged wings, blasters
- The Loyal Subjects Ion Storm (though he had not received his name yet) is a 3-inch non-transforming vinyl figure designed by Les Schetkoe. He comes in the "Rainmakers" set alongside Acid Storm and Nova Storm. The set comes in a retro box and was released in a limited run of 500 pieces.
Notes
- Despite the many different designations thought up by fans, the yellow and the blue Rainmaker went officially unnamed for over 30 years until a 2015 entry of the Facebook edition of Ask Vector Prime named the yellow one Nova Storm and the blue one Ion Storm.
- The term "rainmakers" was originally used by Bluestreak as a colloquial description of their actions. However, repeated fan usage has turned this into a widely accepted name for the group, which was eventually made official as such by Hasbro's bio for Acid Storm.
