- Submarauder is a Decepticon Pretender from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Much like his fellow Pretender, Iguanus, Submarauder has developed an intense connection with the creatures represented by his outer Pretender shell. He enjoys spending extensive periods of time alone underwater, observing all that the living seas have to offer. Interrupting his musings is a serious mistake, as his explosive temper will be instantly turned on any Autobot who dares enter his domain. Unfortunately for his fellow Decepticons, they too will suffer the same fate if they disturb the creatures of the deep.
- French-Canadian name: Sousmaraudeur
- Italian name: Reptilo

[edit] Marvel Comics
After commandeering a genetics research lab on Earth, Scorponok was able to recreate and perfect the science of Pretender shells using synthoplasmic chambers constructed by him and Vorath. Submarauder was one of six Decepticon volunteers transformed by the process into new Pretenders. Pretender to the Throne!
[edit] Dreamwave Comics
Submarauder served as a member of Ratbat's Ultracon faction during the Dark Ages. He was present as Tyger Pax for the signing of the peace treaty between Ratbat, Shockwave, and Ultra Magnus. He fought alongside various Autobots and Decepticons against the Predacons when they interrupted the proceedings.
[edit] Toys
[edit] Generation 1
- Submarauder (Pretender, 1988)
- Accessories: Pretender shell, sword, "torpedo rifle", shield, belt
- Submarauder transforms into a cybertronic submarine thing that's vague and purple. His gun is mounted on his back in this mode. As with most Pretenders, Submarauder has a rather generic looking robot mode with no distinct details and is rather monochromatic, but less so than his mostly purple vehicle mode.
- His outer Pretender Shell is a sea creature guy with gills, a head-mounted dorsal fin, and scales. The shell wields Submarauder's sword and gun, and can mount his shield on his forearm.
- This toy was released in Japan without changes as Gilmer.
[edit] Trivia
- A creature that bears a remarkable (if somewhat more twisted) resemblance to Submarauder's Pretender shell appears in the Animated episode "Survival of the Fittest".
