Shrikebat


 * Shrikebats are alien creatures from Dromedon and Dread.

Shrikebats are large, purple, flying, vaguely reptilian creatures. Found on Dromedon and Dread, a group of them is referred to as a "wreck" of shrikebats, or, more commonly "aiiiiiieee get them off get them off my eyes oh dear gooaaaarrrrrghkklgkglllll".

They're extremely vicious creatures. Thankfully, they don't like it when you invert polarities, which drives them off.

The Transformers cartoon continuity
Kup had encounters with shrikebats on planets Dromedon and Dread. During his time as a prisoner of the Orbs, a wreck of shrikebats attacked his fellow prisoners.
