Sharkticon (Energon)
Sharkticon is an Decepticon in the Unicron Trilogy.
Sharkticon
The name Sharkticon was given to an individual Decepticon in the Transformers: Energon toyline in 2004. He turned into shark shaped submarine, said to be a homage to the Nemesis.
His motto is "If I don't grind you to shreds, I'll blast you to bits." Sharkticon has an appetite for destruction along with a repulsive stench. Recruited by Scorponok for space reconnaissance, this evil Decepticon proved very quickly that his true skills were best displayed during space battle and underwater combat. His powerful jaws are his greatest weapons. His cruel way of destroying an enemy has been known to sicken his Decepticon allies, including Megatron, on many occasions. Even his teammate, Shockwave, is repulsed by Sharkticon's personality and stink. In vehicle mode, he can out-maneuver some of Optimus Prime's most skilled Autobots. In robot mode, he takes down the enemy with merciless precision and pure enjoyment.
Fiction
Dreamwave Comics continuity
Energon
All of Sharkticon's brief appearances have ended in failer. In the Dreamwave Summer Special, trying to sneak into an Autobot facility. He also appeared as team mates Slugslinger and Mirage, on a mission to abduct Kicker and beat up on some Omnicons. The plan literally went belly-up as Sharkticon suffered severe energy damage at the very least and was abandoned by his cohorts, in the water. Thanks guys.
As you can see Sharkticon had a troubled youth.
