Aquatron
The ocean planet of Aquatron lies somewhere in the Orion Arm of the Milky Way. Long ago, during Cybertron's Golden Age, it was colonized by Transformers, who adapted to their watery world by taking on aquatic alternate modes based on robotic fish and assorted sea life. Notable subspecies include Sharkticons and the Leviacons.
The Aquatronians founded massive automated Energon refineries all across the seabed, maintained by robotic organisms such as the Cleaners. Their uniquely oxygenated mixture of Energon is cheap to produce and extremely efficient. Unlike many of the other lost colonies left isolated after the collapse of the space bridges, Aquatron was eventually found- not by Cybertronians, but by the Quintessons, who annexed the defenseless little world into their Imperium, repurposing the Sharkticons into an army to quell any potential rebellions.
To outside observers, the brutally subjugated Aquatronians appear to be happy and productive Energon traders under the benevolent guidance of the Quintesson's fictional Co-Prosperity Sphere, but dig a little deeper and the Quintesson's web of lies will swiftly unravel.
