Desire
- Desire is an Autobot Micromaster from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Desire (ディザイアー Dizaiā) is the leader of the Train Team, even though he has no memories of his life before he evolved into a Micromaster. Carrying a fragment of the Matrix within him, the key to Sixtrain's "Red Mode" ultimate attack, Desire burns with an urge to eradicate evil in all forms. This drive has made him very popular among the Autobots, and a charismatic leader.
Fiction
Micromaster
Desire and the other Train Team members used their combined "Red Mode" to drive the Decepticon Sixwing from an excavation site at the base of a dormant volcano. When two pieces of Cybertronian metal were unearthed, Desire noted that the fragments had to have been there for at least three million years, judging from the depth where they were found. The team had to re-combine to drive off yet another attack by Sixwing. Sixtrain! Activate Red Mode!! After the construction of Metrobase, he helped the newly arrived Multiforce fight back Sixwing, though Desire was wary of the newcomers at first. The Menace of Landcross's Combining Formation!

Train Wars
The Trainbots were heavily injured fighting the Nine Great Demon Generals in the form of Raiden, leaving them requiring extensive repairs. Blaming himself for their condition, Shouki left the team so that his leadership would never endanger them again. Sixtrain stood watch over Shouki's elective reformatting into a spy shuttlecraft at Metrobase. Shouki & Daniel Chapter
Later, just as Cybertron seemed lost to the interdimensional incursion of the Fallen, Shouki and the ragtag band of Transformers left to defend Cybertron were greeted by Desire along with D-Go and Shouki's old comrade Suiken. The other Trainbots had arrived astride Metroplex, bringing with them the Train Team and the Liner Team! Chiding his brother for being as solemn as ever, Yukikaze reminded Shouki the Trainbots would always have his back. With that, on Windy's count all three teams of train 'bots combined into the Trainbot Omni-Car Joint to chain the Fallen, giving Shouki and company time to vanquish the cosmic evil by funneling Metroplex's power through Shouki's new "Raiden" cannon mode.
