- Shockwave is Overpowered! Why Shockwave Is Stronger Than People Think!
Hey guys The Fire Brothers here and in today's video I'm talking about Shockwave and why he is actually pretty overpowered for a scientist. Shockwave is usually well regarded as being one of the strongest Decepticons around but I don't think people just know by how much, in this video I will explain why Shockwave is stronger than people think. I will also be looking at Shockwave as how he is portrayed in Transformers WfC, RotDS and FoC, the novels including exile, Transformers Prime, Beast Hunters and Predacons Rising. So now that we are all set, let's begin.

What happened to Shockwave after Transformers Prime Beast Hunters movie after he got Trumbull down by the Predacons
Shockwave could defeat Megatron if saw it fit, but he couldn’t defeat Soundwave since Soundwave is an enigma and would use Shockwaves own logic against him to beat Shockwave.
The Fire Brothers shock wave from TFPrime had my favorite design and character
The Fire Brothers Can you do how strong is TFP Megatron
You forgot one thing when shockwave charges his hyperflux cannon its spinning vortex collects energy straight from the cosmos, and when the blast hits its target it creates miniature blackholes and completely destroys its target. by the way he has a vortex that can generate a heat shield that protects its user against incoming fire
“I find being broken to simply be... logical.”
your argument is most logical sir
^^^
@@shookwave666 *Well timed*
Starscream: "Curse you and your logic!"
LOL
I'm having difficulty processing how Shockwave isn't the leader of the Decepticons or at least replace Starscream, actally nevermind I just remember that Megatron needs a punching bag
JackiePrime frankly I think Soundwave would be the best leader of the deceptions since he’s the only one trying to make sure everyone’s following orders and working with each other.
I guess Shockwave relies too much on logic
Oof poor Starscream
JackiePrime he and soundwave are too uncharismatic and lack initiative, ambition and leadership skills. This is why Megatron chose starscream, he may be a power hungry usurper but he has goals beyond serving
Because Shockwave is a scientist. Therefore he can't be second in command.
He also has 1 hand but he was still able to clone an extinct species
logic

Loogggiiiiccccc
Fun fact: Shockwave was leader of the decepticons for a short while. In a comic series called "The New Order", Megatron was deemed unfit and Shockwave was voted to be the new leader, which he accepted. Best part was he succeeded in defeating the autobots and killed a ton of them in a brutal strategic assault and took over their base. Megatron tried to return and get his position back, but Shockwave beat him within an inch of his life and outcast him as a Decepticon. It wasn't until Megatron teamed up with the Autobots was Shockwave's reign taken down. I highly suggest you read it. Its a VERY creepy comic and shows you just how scary Shockwave is
Was this an offshoot of the aligned continuity?
Name?
@@tankcartoonsexplaination9840 it is in his comment
My guy took on an undead Predacon army and lived, oh I love him. But I always love this character.
Shockwave is such a badass in the align continuity
The Fire Brothers he’s a badass in almost any continuity
Reference from Endgame, when Cap was about to take my army. lol
It’s only logical
How did he survive that?
I honestly never doubted Prime’s Shockwave when it came to strength and definitely not his intelligence.
I've always wanted to see an episode of prime with shockwave and soundwave working together. Cold emotionless logic and tactical genius.
there was a clip. They both fought against Prime, Smokey and Bee
@@mikaelafefrias1880 on the bridge right ?
@@yeetrox ye
@@mikaelafefrias1880 but it was lazerbeak/soundwave's pet
Shockwave is like Doctor Doom, functionally capable of beating everyone, but is willing to serve a master.
Dr doom will never serve
Will! That is only logical, after all time leading and makeing planes can be used in doing researches, plus that way he can work for free! Tho i hate how megatron is useless without both waves, tho shockwave alon brout the war to next levels
@Megatron Leader of The Decpticons will you are right, but look at this
Shockwave mad everything the cons have
Made the combiners
Inslavesthe insectecons who are more then half the army
And many more! Fug he created a full-aft tittan
Also shockwave is never a fighter, unlike the fight hungry megatron, and only fight when needed, so if he wanted to take megatron down, he can just creat a weapon to do so, this easy, like megatron lost to predking and only "won" via cheating, so killing him will be rether easy, also haveing charisma is not logical, as it doesn't help shockwave in his researches
"What kind of a support are you?"
Shockwave: "The artillery kind"
Shockwave was considered stronger than Megatron in a few iterations including the Marvel comics.
The Transformers are all Dead...
@@vickerandflips8061 nope
“Is he beyond prime level?”
Optimus whispers in the background: *The power of the matrix will light our darkest hour*
It's only logical for Shockwave to be overpowered...
I find your assumption to be....logical
shockblast: PERFECT SENSE
all the shockwaves: primely logical
@Laltluangliana Sailop indeed it is..... Logical
@@mithmoonwalker That made me think of Cell PERFECT
LOL. He is like an evil Spock.
Shockwave encountering Grimlock: I will break your f*cking back
But grimlock did eat his arm
Didn't this dude almost destroy the entire universe in dark Cybertron 😂
What's the name of the comic?
@@kessler682 Fall of Cybertron or Transformers Prime
He was literally multi universal in dark Cybertron, he OVERPOWERS Megatron and prime who are both universal.
@@darkhunter2345how is megatron universal?
@@chopper8946 IDW megatron tanks attacks from regenesis shockwave, who absorbed the entire dead universe. The dead universe is a direct opposite to the idw 2005 universe and is at odds with it. The idw 2005 universe is infinite with infinite dimensions. Idw megatron defeated d void/Decepti-god, who is the embodiment of the dead universe.
“NOOO YOU CANNOT BE AT THE SAME LEVEL AS A PRIME WITHOUT BEING A PRIME!”
Shockwave: “Logic go brrrr.”
Him and Soundwave in my opinion were OP af
if they weren't in a rush to get the predacon sample to Megatron i honestly think the two of them could have killed prime
In the original lore it was shockwave that revived the entire planet of Cybertron even before Megatron took the role as leader of the Decepticons even Prime would have difficulty fighting him face to face
It is only logical for Shockwave to be overpowered considering he rivals Megatron.
No Shockwave isn't on the Batman level. He is Batman and Tony Stark combined. + cold , logical , calculated of Ultron.
Me: Cant play games with 1 hand
Shockwave: Can bring back an extinct species with 1 hand and 1 eye
And can defeat 2 wreckers in one blast
@@Impactor07 Shockwave is literally HIM
@@redragon8551 Yes
Exactly
You didn't get the addon of another feat that I wrote
His one weakness: depth perception
Shockwave is so powerful that he wasn't included in RID 2015 to be deactivated by their undefeated autobots who have to win for the children's appeal
Shockwave is easily one of my most favorite transformer characters of all time and the aligned continuity is my favorite version of him.
IDW comics is the best iteration of Shockwave. But Aligned is easily the best onscreen version of the character.
In my opinion I’ve always thought shockwave was one of the strongest and thought with the right tools he could take it on Optimus and Megatron at the same time and this just proves it
Will duhhh, it us just the the show did not want the cons to be broken so there us a chance for the bits to fight back, if not then shockwave could just make predcon combiners FROM cybertron not earth
Should’ve given him points for being that thicc
HAHAHAHHAHAHA
AYO
In the idw comics he was a sentetor who was orion pax's friend
Don't you mean senator
@@shockwavethewarlock yes sorry my bad I can't spell
Can someone tell me the most interenting parts of idw stories, i've heard its great but never had the chance to read them
@@jauzaafaishalahmadpadmadis3846 okay let's me start number 3 shockwave is the dark cybertron prophecy and the symbol of the uncreator
Number 2 shockwave was onyx prime
Number 1 in shockwaves spotlight comic he beats all the dinobots and grimlock
@@shockwavethewarlock he was onyx prime servant
Man why the heck wasn't he in RID, he could'v been the main villain!
My guess is he didn't see any point in it. I mean, Shockwave is a very high-logic low-emotion scientist. He's not ambitious, he's not indignant, he's not ethical, he just does what makes sense to him. The only emotions, if you can even call them that, he's been motivated by are his loyalty to Megatron, and his scientific curiosity, the former likely being shattered when the Decepticon party was disbanded. If the founder of my cause abandons it, why shouldn't I? My guess is he's somewhere deep in the bowels of Cybertron, aimlessly performing experiment after experiment for nothing but the sake of ocupying his time.
or if they add him,he would die cause Decepticon Hunters
“Ok now for intelligence”
Sees that there is near half a vid left
Seems....logical
Shockwave has always been my favorite decepticon ever! I Every incarnation of him, except the G1 Cartoon Version which perhaps been so powerful he let himself to be beaten on a very stupid way.
also in the bayverse he was wasted. his design was okay but he didn't do anything.
Now I want one of Soundwave.
Bro, Shockwave is just too awesome, it would be illogical to question his strength.
SHOCKWAVE is not just a scientist, he's THE scientist.
TFP Shockwave is the best incarnation of him. He is so emotionless and intelligent.
"I want a rematch!"
-Cliffjumper
Could you maybe explain the power level of Soundwave next? I think a lot of people want to know how strong he really is
Could you turn this into a series? If so can you do prime soundwave next.
Shockwave was once my favorite character during childhood!
That Fall of Cybertron music gave me MAD nostalgia
0:50 his intelligence! Dude he's a scientist.
Alright, is it just me who thinks about this dude's origins, here is my thoughts on it.
He was a man who liked to help people and had many friends. When his best friend was killed, he was enraged and slaughtered his killer and his emotion left his body. He wanted to do something better in his life. Megatron met him and said the decepticons would bring peace and that it was the right way. He would get used to their ways and still think his ways were the right ways. All his friends wouldn't recognise him as the shockwave they once knew and feared him. Shockwave would then start forgetting the man he once was and would nolonger know who he was with it now staying a mystery among the decepticon ranks.
He may only have one hand, one eye, and no mouth. But he was able to bring back an extinct species in a makeshift lab.
Damn..the vibes..This guy is so amazing, Shockwave forever
Question: Does his blaster does the same damage as the G1 Megatron's cannon?
Hard to tell due to then being from different continuities
@@thefirebrothers3739 Logical answer 👌
@Lord Megatron Hello Lord Megatron..
@Lord Megatron No....
@Lord Megatron Where's Starscream?
You forget the scene where smokescreen, bumblebee and optimus prime were fighting for predacon bone but shockwave went on a 1v3 like it was nothing
One thing I always liked about Transformers Prime is when they show blaster fire just bouncing harmlessly off a bot's body, whether it be Predaking, Megatron, The Insecticons, or Shockwave
THE HELL IS HE MADE OF
@EsoJ H, pure logic my friend
Shockwave’s power is only logical. Never disturb his work.
Shockwave: the strongest decepticon, overpowered, broken, smart
meanwhile..
TF3: got beaten by human, die with one punch optimus, walking all around one street with no purpose
He didn't really have that happen that way while I can agree with one thing he obv loss his intelligence he was literally either walking around the city for no reason and he almost relied completely on the driller in the movie and once it died he just stopped in one place with barricade only for the protoform to die then for barricade to get knocked out or something (I have no idea WTH happened with barricade lol) and for SHOckwaVe to lose a eye so yeah SHOckwaVe don't hve much intelligence in this movie
But he def did not just get one punched while yeah he was dumb as hell michael did a very good job in showing his crazy durability and weapon strength the military along with all three wreckers were shooting at him with all guns for almost the whole begining to half of the chicago battle they also show that one shot from his cannon sent powered up OPtiMus flying into a crane and then SHOckwaVe again gets pounded by explosives and the wreckers yet again (and while yes the part with the parachute is kinda stupid I guess) then has his eye come loose from his head only to get half his torso removed by OPtiMus and still barely be alive then sadly gets his throat or eye ripped out(like barricade I have idea wtf happened when he died). So while yes movie verse SHOckwaVe is a complete idiot he is also very strong
Look I already knew he was op when he manhandle 4 autobots by himself
In the comics he manhandled 4 dinobots
Megatron better pray that Shockwave does not go full starscream on him
Shockwave got point blank SmAcKeD
the music you put in the background gave me so much nostalgia, thank you!
This guy's buff after FOC is enough to make Soundwave display a heart on his visor whenever it's just the two of them
_Most trusted Lieutenant of Megatron_
Soundwave:
Shockwave lives purely off logic and serving his leader since he has no other incentives, so its practically impossible to betray him or let him down
@@fexbd Well in some cases when Megatron doesn’t agree with Shockwaves logic that’s when Shockwave betrays him as he no longer sees Megatron as a perfect leader.
I love how nobody mentions the fact that his 3 best attempts at adding forces to the Decepticons ultimately backfired. (The insecticons, and Predaking both tried to kill Megatron. And, the Dinobots wrecked Shockwaves shit.)
I don't think any of those were his fault, especially the Predaking, but idk about the other two
Dinobots were because of Starscream interference.
Predacons were because of megatrons reservations.
Insect icons were because Shockwave wasn’t around to prevent Arachnid from taking control back.
Non were particularly his fault, and I guarantee had Shockwave been the sole decision maker with the predacons, they wouldn’t have turned against them.
Un the Bayverse and the respective comics, it is said to be stronger than Megatron in combat. He is even taller than him in that continuity. The autobots were afraid to him because he was not only a scientist but also an assassin.
not to mention in the IDW1 continuity, he actually WAS onyx prime. he lived his life, got sent to the beginning of time, became onyx prime, and orchestrated literally everything in IDW1 including unicron. damn bro
Great Video! Most Impressive. Keep up the good work!
TFP Shockwave will always be my favourite version
My boy shockwave gratuated at the top of his class and being bullied by the likes of his own comrades and managed to turn himself into a powerful being
Do what happened to shockwave after predacon movie
He’s MIA even internally
Best guess,busted or MIA
Continuing his research
TFP Shockwave might be the most OP version we ever had
Shockwave is one of the best decepticon scientist ever
I love that even before he got thicc Shockwave was still super powerful
G1 Marvel Comics Shockwave was very strong, he rivaled Megatron, though perhaps just slightly weaker physically but possessing more firepower in alternate mode.
He defeated Megatron on a couple occasions, and was leader of the Decepticons, on or off, for a number of years before disappearing and then returning to challenge Scorpanok for leadership by the end of G1. While he may not have been as strong as Megatron, he was certainly smarter and a better planner, and overall a more effective leader.
He is stronger than megatron
IDW Shockwave(IDW comics is widely considered the main TF continuity) is the strongest character in the verse.
Nearly wiped out the entire multiverse, only failing because he basically committed suicide after Optimus restored his ability to feel emotions, and he realized how much of a monster he had become.
Dude even went back in time and stole the identity of the strongest of the original 13 after killing him, and then using that identity to make the other 13 turn against one another.
Shcokwave got killed in the bayverse by a fricking parachute
Azure133 yeah because Michael bay is a dumbass.
I would tell both of you whole thing I told azlow but you can read it yourself
Ok so long story short he did die by a parachute he died by 1.tree wreckers all shooting vat him at the same time with all there guns along with 2.
Military personnel shooting at him along with 3. OPtiMus being the sadistic anti hero he is in the bay verse with a liking with taking or going for a enemys head or face, ripped SHOckwaVe eye and throat (I think) out
Have you ever noticed that Megatron won't challenge Shockwave I believe Shockwave is more stronger than Megatron and make a better leader the Megatron even though Megatron been around for years Shockwave is more intelligent he thinks logical and his reactions and his actions count up for what you gain on the battlefield keep up the review can't wait for the next one
@@atlas6538 he isn't called "kaons champion" for nothing
If Shockwave didn’t rely on logic for like *everything* I think he would easily be a replacement for Megatron.
wow....impressive stats there Brother! keep it up!
Fun fact, his cannon is an Hyperflux gun. I let you search what that gun do
Shockwave is more dangerous than Megatron himself because he's most robot-like and hard to reason with
The most cool version of shockwawe
I also made an autobot concept named Overblade. They have 2 forms! A car and a helicoptor and he was orginally a decepticon. Now he switched sides.
The point of shockwave was that he was the most powerful transformer to have ever existed (Besides Unicron and Primus)
I love The Transformers.. Espcially SHOCKWAVE and SOUNDWAVE 🔥🔥🔥
Movement E+
Shockwave:Runaway? never heard of that word
I just bought Shockwave from the Cyber Battalion series. Thanks for the info
TF:P Shockwave is my favorite character of ANY Transformers show.
Is no one going to talk about how he single handily knocked prime out of the battle for a while in Dark Side of the Moon
This is TFP shockwave
Tfp shockwave: i am the strongest
Idw shockwave: hold my universe
Great one
Shockwave: pretty much a demigod
Humans: sUcH bAbY
thicc, logical, and stronk boi
Never wished I could heart a comment so much in my entire life. Thank you for this
Don't forget he also once almost absorbed a Universe.
Shockwave vs Lockdown this is so interesting , if you do a comparison bw these two.
Not sure what the comparison is for. Shockwave is a emotionless Scientist, lockdown is a ruthless bounty hunter. Shockwaves best feats are killing Megatron and nearly killing all life in the universe, only failing because he regained his emotions and let Optimus kill him out of shame for the monster he had become. Lockdowns most impressive feats were in bayformers 4. Where he defeated and imprisoned a weakened Optimus, then held his own against a full power Optimus later on. Impressive yes, but not comparable to someone like shockwave, who liter went back in time and orchestrated the downfall of the original 13 primes and the creation of unicron.
@@hazardous8301 IDW Regenesis Shockwave is multi universal- low Multi-versal level. He overpowered IDW Megatron and Optimus, who are both universal level.

Ngl he has always been my favorite. They really should have given him more time in bayverse
I wanna know why soundwave is op every time he is around the autobots he is never beaten they even had to send him to the shadow realm because they couldn't take him on head to head
He’s a genius & can download data into his brain. Also, Optimus did defeat him once.
@@earlsun thats optimus prime though who holds the strongest weapon ever the isn't just fire power
the others couldn't even with magic tech relics like the armor that can't be destroyed also that makes sense it's just he has the ability to take team primes foes like breakdown or the insect queen girl with eaz and I love it
@@mabes448 I get it. As a kid, Soundwave was my favorite Decepticon. If I were to be one that I thought related to myself, I’d pick him. As Megatron’s original right hand bot, you’d expect great things. He has a unique arsenal of abilities that are (in normal circumstances) unrivaled. Not gonna lie, if the FireBrothers were to do another power scaling video, I’d want it to be about TFP Soundwave. Also, he’s the type of guy that gets all the time in the world to prepare to fight against anyone & anything. Chances are, he’s just always prepared take on whatever comes his way.
There are 4 aligned universes
- Transformers wfc and foc
- Transformers go
- Transformers RID 2018
- Transformers prime
Those universes have a paradox effect in the timeline.
So there are separate universes with the same plot but they are different.
The Covenant of Primus book helps tie the games and TFP together a bit tighter at least.
Wha the hell is paradox effect?
"Your argument is logical" - Shockwave
[Transformers: Prime]
2:09 is the little video on top a transformers universe game trailer? i remember it looked really great but was then canceled in favor of rise of the dark spark, i hope the devs regretted their decision
I find your conclusion... Logical
Hello there
You should include the fact grimlock was literally on little energon while the decepticons had a limitless source of energon, and grimlock fought hundreds of insecticons with little energon so yeah his armour and strength was not as high
If Shockwave ever existed in the Aligned RID cartoon, his appearance might be the same as in Cyberverse cartoon.
I think it should be a mix of that and animated shockwave
Hey dude nice vid!, can you maybe do a vid on the smallest transformers thanks!
No idea who would that be but I will think about it
