Catalyst used to be an Autobot in special operations, but Jazz had enough of his questionable actions on missions even if he got good results. Eventually after the murder of several civilians Jazz had no choice but to take Catalist in for trial. However Catalyst Catalist wouldn't come quietly and in the ensuing scuffle was pushed into a deep crevasse where one of Shockwaves abandoned creations merged with his ruined body.

Due to R-U15 or Rust, Catalyst as a heightened healing ability however the symbiotic nanites have a mind of their own and a conscience. They fight against Catalist when he attempts to act in his old selfish and crule ways.

Being a creation of Shockwave Rust is not programed for pacifisim. So they can be convinced to aid in the harm or killing of sapient or sentinent beings if Catalyst can justify it to them.

Catalyst sometimes gets mistaken for Bumblebee and never misses a chance to try to damage his reputation.
