The existence of Lemuria was proven when Decepticon Headmaster leader Scorponok uncovered its ruins and used them as a base for his final plan to destroy the Earth. It is not precisely clear when he discovered Lemuria, but it appeared that he had his plans in motion for some time before the continent's involvement was revealed - Scourge, Menasor and Devastator were stationed in the continent, mining its powerful crysmag metal, and had not been seen during the latter portion of Scorponok's campaigns on planet Master and Earth, indicating that they were occupied with this task already.
With four "Death Towers" forged from Lemuria's crysmag metal positioned around Earth, Scorponok withdrew from a battle in Egypt to Lemuria. Plunging into the ocean, he was pursued by renegade Decepticon Sixshot, who was swept up in a whirlpool, and emerged in Lemuria. Discovering Scorponok's plan, he escaped and aided the Autobots in the final battle at the North Pole. The Final Showdown on Earth (Part 2)
