Aligatron is one of the few predacons who have managed to join the ranks of the elite guard. Originally a mere mine worker, Aligatron showed great courage in risking his life saving fellow miners from a collapsed shaft and was granted membership of the elite guard. Sometime afterwards he met Galvatron when tracking down some criminals and offered to be an undercover agent for him in the ranks of the guard. However, he still seems to be loyal to the Maximal council and works as a cover agent for them in the rebellion. However despite this, Convobat is constantly suspicious of him.
