Through the machinations ofTarantulas,NAVI-ko was "warped" into a body of her own, which transformed into adolphin.She debuted her new form to the bemused Megatron as she presented him information (secretly provided by Tarantulas) on "Nemesis Prime",an evil clone of their ancestor,Optimus Prime.Megatron wanted to add Nemesis Prime to his own forces, so he sent NAVI-ko forward in time via atranswarpportal toDoctor Arkeville's Decepticon Base in Yokohama, Japan, in the year 2014 where Nemesis Prime had been detected.
Once in 2014, NAVI-ko located Nemesis Prime as Doctor Arkeville andYokohama Primefought over whose cookie would activate the clone. NAVI-ko claimed Nemesis Prime for herself with her Yokohama Decepticon Cookie.Mach Five Racing Prime,Yokohama Prime, andKawasaki Primeteamed up to fight Nemesis Prime, but they were blasted away, and NAVI-ko met with the clone after, pointing out the nearbyTransformers Expo.She bore witness to Nemesis Prime fighting the Autobots within the Expo and Nemesis's seeming sacrifice to save Yokohama from the explosive interaction of the Dark Energon within himself and the artifacts stored in the Expo—events that Tarantulas sought to bring about as an agent ofUnicron.NAVI-ko was saddened by her comrade's death, only for "Yokohama Convoy" to awaken and flirt with her. NAVI-ko didn't have time to respond as Megatron ordered her back to base after the failure of their plan.Yokohama Decepticon Secret Base
