This article is about a character or concept that lacks a name, but has an official term or designation. |
The "Dark Primes" don't exist. If they did, they would be the evil counterparts of Primus' legendary Thirteen Primes, created by Unicron to help combat his brother's creations and aid the Chaos Bringer in devouring the universe.

The Covenant of Primus
Alpha Trion believed it was best to enact the Thirteen's plan to defeat Unicron before he had the chance to create his own set of "Dark Primes" to counter his brother's warriors. Micronus and Megatronus, however, were adamant that Unicron was much too selfish and egotistical to give his powers away to lesser beings. Prima greatly disagreed with their dismissal of the idea, arguing at great lengths with Megatronus over the matter. The Covenant of Primus
Notes
- While Unicron never did end up creating his own team of "Dark Primes", Micronus' insistence that Unicron was too egotistical to imbue his power into mortals would ultimately prove somewhat shortsighted with Unicron's later possession of Megatron, albeit that was more of a one-sided deal done when Unicron was in desperate straits. Elsewhere in the multiverse, Unicron is well known for granting power to various willing and unwilling servants, as well as creating his own Transformers (such as the Blentrons).
- While not exactly his own self-created "Dark Primes", Unicron has often been responsible for the creation of various Nemesis Primes, clones or corrupted versions of an actual Prime. In addition to this, Unicron's essence was used to create Rodimus Cron (also known as Rodimus Unicronus in the toy release), with the unique name being given to him by the Matrix of Conquest itself. As such, one might interpret "Cron" as the Unicronian counterpart to the title of "Prime".
