It's been 10 Earth years since the last battle against Unicron involving him and Megatron disappearing into deep space. The Autobots and Decepticons have been working together and have set up mining post for mining Energon in which to use the Energon to restore Cybertron. But a bad guy called Alpha Q (AKA Alpha Quintesson) has sent a Decepticon named Scorponok and a group of drones called the Terrorcons to raid the mining settlements and steal the Energon so they can restore and power up Unicron and revive Megatron with the help of the Decepticons. But a resurrected Megatron has other plans with Unicron since he has plans to control him. Scorponok and Alpha Q have different plans for Unicron and that is to use Unicron's power to re-create things like his home planet, and destroy Megatron once and for all. It's up to Optimus Prime, the Autobots, and the Omnicons along with a teenage boy named Kicker to stop the Decepticons from stealing all the Energon and taking over the universe.

Reference: Unicron has the same power as the Matrix as in Generation 1 Optimus can use the matrix to give life or bring something back to life.

Characters re-introduced are Optimus Prime, Megatron/Galvatron, Hot Shot, Cyclonus, Demolisher, Starscream, Tidal Wave, Unicron, Rad, Carlos, Alexis, Highwire, Sureshock, and Grindor and the introductions of Alpha Q, The Terrorcon units (Battle Ravage, Divebomb, Cruellock, and Insecticon Units), Scorponok, Primus, Ironhide, Inferno, Kicker, Rodimus, Dr. Jones (Kicker's Father), Miranda (Kicker's Mother), Sally (Kicker's Sister), Mischa (Kickers girl friend), Prowl, Landmine, Snowcat (Cyclonus' upgraded form), Shockblast, Mirage (Tidal Wave's upgraded form), Wing Saber, Cliffjumper, Bulkhead, Omega Supreme, Roadblock (Inferno's revived form), Sixshot (Shockblast Little Brother), Superion Maximus, Bruticus Maximus, Constructicon Maximus etc. as well as the Omnicons Skyblast, Strongarm, Signal Flare, Arcee, Downshift, and more. Certain Autobots can combine with another to form a more powerful version of an Autobot (example: Hot Shot + Inferno = Powerlink Hot Shot) via the Spark of Combination which is considered a comemeration for the warriors who fought greatly in battle. Continued from Transformers: Armada and Energon is later continued by Transformers Cybertron.

    needs more respect hide « show »

    Ya' know a alot of shows need more respect energon is one of them. When ever a transformer show has sequel and trys to be deep fans whine and complain about it and i can't stand it when people hate something thats perfectly fine. It has goten so bad how can people be that close minded the character are old (g1) and new one like the Omicons. I am so saden by the fact that so many people who get mad and hate so easyly like this one sequel beast machines i like because i'm deep others don't just because it was diffrent

    10 Perfect

    One of the best spin-offs! hide « show »

    Man, this is a good spin off, and they did better with the animation. There are also less goofs than before, Armada had tones of them!!! It is also a good plot, another scavenger hunt, Energon. The finale is good, and it is great that Demolisher and Cyclones (Now Snowcat) can to their senses and became good guys at the end. They are two of my favorite! I hope that there will be more spin offs? Anyway, what the heck happened to Billy and the other guy? Are they any were? But i love everyone's new looks. I give 10/10

    7 Good

    Energon, the primary fuel of the Transformers has become high priority on Cybertron after the Unicron battles. With the help of their human allies, the Autobots have established energon mining operations. hide « show »

    I enjoyed energon during the first few episodes but I feel it could have better had the dubbing been handled after the whole show was complete. Theres times it is incomprehensible, sometimes a character will contradict himself in the same sentence, other times the lines are changed for the worse, Alpha Qs line about conquering the universe in Beware Kicker springs to mind, originally he said to restore what he lost.
    In all fairness though, the VAs for Alpha Q, kicker and human characters did a good job as did the guys doing the Decepticons.

    In between Armada and Cybertron, this had a good run! hide « show »

    After a great Armada series, I must admit, I was really looking forward to this. Right away, I knew this was nowhere near Armada. 10 years in the future, no kids (until later), different art, and lots more Transformers to know. It takes you some time to catch up with it but after that, it's all good. Of course, it's easy to get lost in this show because if you miss an episode, you'll be left a bit confused. I also did get confused about Alpha Q's character at first and near the end--I didn't like his VA, so that threw me off at times too. Kicker was pretty cool for a human lead character in the Transformer universe and the action and adventures were pretty good. They did a good job of nailing the Autobots down pretty well and it did get pretty exciting. They also made sure that you knew Megatron/Galvatron is a hardcore villain, especially near the kick-ass end this show provided (who else would want to resurrect Unicron and try to use him?) That final showdown with Unicron and Optimus was pretty awesome!
    While I still prefer Armada, this one is definitely 10 times better than the Cybertron series!

    9.1 Superb

    I think that this show was awesome, I didn't see too much, but what I did see made it great. And I think more people should watch it. hide « show »

    This show is actually much better than people think, they only hate it because they compare it with G1 too much. If you don't compare it with G1, than it will be good. G1 was the best transformers series made so far, so it's pretty hard to make something better. But at least they made a show better than Armada, and I wish that more people would watch thisshow, if they watch it at least as much as me, they will like it. They don't give the show a chance at all. Of Cybertron, Armada, and Energon, my favorite is Energon.
