Energon Eater

An Energon eater is a engergy feeding species of alien that appears in Transformers  Rescue Bots episode, Unfinished Business.

Biology
Energon eaters are giant eel-like aliens that spend most of the time dwelling in outer space. They usually feed off energon from ships they capture and hunt by scent largely as they can smell flowing energon nearby. They can also control energon to drawn other ships to their "distress calls" and store energon within the tips of their tails.

History
The Sigma and its crew of Rescue Bots followed a distress call to a damaged ship, only to be confronted by an Energon eater. Heatwave, Blades, and Boulder headed back towards the ship, but were cut off by the creature until Chase  soon impacted the ship directly into it. With everyone back on board the Sigma, they realized that the Energon eater would continue hunting them, so they had no choice but to put themselves in stasis and shut down the ship to eliminate the energy signature, and the beast left them alone. Some time later, after the Rescue Bots had made a home on Earth, Chase had the urge to again try to aid the stricken ship. He and Boulder took the Sigma back to the scene, only to find that the Energon eater had been powering the derelict's computer to make it produce a distress signal. The pair managed to evade the beast, but it drained the Sigma's power core, leaving the ship dead. Chase and Boulder were forced to trap the Energon eater and use power from it to reenergize the ship. They took the creature back to Earth and presented it to Optimus Prime.
