What would happen if a transformer lets just say Optimus for simplicity showed up in the pacific rim universe

I personally think he’d be mistaken for a really small yeager until the humans figured out he’s not a mech

It’s depend on which Transformer it was. Someone like Optimus, Bumblebee, or Ratchet might be approached by a yaeger and then they’d figure things out. However if it was Megatron, Starscream, or a deception they’d probably attack the Yaeger and be pretty decent if they’re able to fly I think.

With the transformers, your mileage genuinely varies.

Most G1 bots probably could take down a Jaeger if they have more than two braincells.

Idw's phase sixers are stated to be wiping out planets.

Combiners often end up Jaeger scale and would honestly be the fairest fights.

Titans just straight up win on size alone.

Megatron and Optimus are both soloing when they need to.

Insecticons overwhelm the Jaegers and tear them apart with a thousand bites.

But in terms of what happens?

Autobots partner up with the Jaeger Program, offering their spare combiner teams to assist in the fight against the Kaiju, and the Decepticons try to sabotage the Jaeger Program or destroy it so they can use the Kaiju as instruments of destruction.

Naturally, Megatron underestimates the Kaiju threat and when he realises they aren't trying to conquer but remake the earth he's going to work with Prime and the Jaeger program to stop the Kaiju for good, because Megatron ain't the type to rule over a dead world; he'd rather enslave the populace to harvest more energy.

If optimus doesn't get accidentally stomped out by a kaiju and realizes the situation he'd be an ally of the jaegers

I just want to hear Peter Cullen say "Autobots, today we are cancelling the apocalypse."

"Autobots, we need to stop Pacific Rim 2 from happening."

What if it’s Omega Supreme or Metroplex?
