Tornedron
From Transformers Wiki
Untold eons after his most powerful creation, Unicron, rebelled and nearly destroyed him, the immortal mad scientist, Primacron, decided to have another go at it. This time, he created a monster entirely of energy. The result was Tornedron, a being capable of taking any form it chooses. Tornedron can suck all manner of energy from anything in the known galaxy, and is capable of splitting its form into numerous pieces to hunt multiple prey at once, and then reforming.

Tornedron was created by Primacron as his second means to take over the Universe. It was first created from an atom, which grew larger as it multiplied. When it was fed an Energon cube, it took an energy form and ascended into space, where it feasted on the energy of a comet. Sensing the danger Tornedron presented, Primacron's Assistant (now a disembodied energy being, himself), telepathically summoned all the "Primitives" among the Transformers. The Primitives were charged with defeating Tornedron, who had already sucked all the energy from Cybertron and Earth.
The Primitives performed rather poorly, all being drained of energy save for Grimlock, who managed to elude Tornedron. As one could expect, Tornedron quickly rebelled against Primacron just as Unicron had, and threatened to "eat" his creator. Before Tornedron had the chance (well, okay, he had a lot of chance, he was just taking his dear sweet time to do so, like a big dumb doof), Grimlock came to the rescue and randomly flipped a reversal switch which caused all of Tornedron's energies to disperse. All the energy he had devoured was returned to its rightful place, and in celebration, Grimlock destroyed Primacron's laboratory. Call of the Primitives
