Alpha Trion/Relationships

These are the relationships of Alpha Trion.

Optimus Prime
"Alpha Trion knew many secrets."

- Optimus noting Alpha Trion's ancient wisdom to his team When Orion Pax came to the Hall of Records, Alpha Trion made sure he was cared for and acted like a mentor to the young bot. Little did Orion know, he was the Thirteenth Prime reincarnated to act as a medium between Prime and lesser Cybertronian. Alpha Trion often gave Orion advice and pushed on the path of reawakening his true self. Once he was reborn, Optimus became eternally grateful to Alpha Trion and still thought of him as a great mentor. When Optimus asked Smokescreen about Alpha Trion's fate, Smokescreen stated the last time he saw Alpha Trion was before the fall of Iacon, which made Optimus look very dispirited upon hearing so. When Optimus received a message from Alpha Trion via the Star Saber, it was simply a recording message Alpha Trion had left for Optimus to view and be aware of the Iacon relics, the Omega Keys and the Omega Lock. When Optimus was about to become one with the AllSpark, Alpha Trion was in Optimus's vision as he tried to convince Optimus to join the AllSpark. While Optimus hesitated, Alpha Trion assured him that the Matrix of Leadership would choose a Prime in his place. However, Smokescreen was able to use the Forge to resurrect Optimus in a new body. Alpha Trion is a wise mentor and father figure to Optimus as he sees Optimus as a true warrior and a studious pupil.

Smokescreen
Smokescreen was Alpha Trion's body guard, something the young bot did not enjoy at first. Alpha Trion however, opened up to him and taught him many things resulting in the two becoming fast friends. One of the things he told Smokescreen was that he was the one who petitioned to Halogen and the High council to make Orion the next Prime. Smokescreen uses this knowledge to gained the trust of Optimus when he first arrived on Earth. Alpha Trion seemed to regard Smokescreen as a second Orion Pax and thought he could one day become a Prime.

In Predacons Rising, as Unicron revives his undead Predacon army, the signal appeared at the warship. Smokescreen states "What in Alpha Trion's beard is that?"

Shockwave
Alpha Trion battled Shockwave's regime after the Exodus. Alpha Trion never faced Shockwave in physical combat and seemed to engage in mental warfare whenever the cyclops entered the Hall of Records, striking fear into his opponent.

Shockwave never fought Alpha Trion in the show, however.
