Siege[]
In the fourth episode, Acid Storm would be present when Starscream would confront Jetfire about his betrayal. Starscream would ask Jetfire if he murdered Skywarp, and Jetfire would say that he did. Megatron would order the Seekers and Starscream to kill Jetfire for being a traitor. Acid Storm would transform into a jet and join the Seekers in trying to chase Jetfire in vehicle mode. Acid Storm and the seekers would be able to knock down Jetfire and they would think they actually killed Jetfire.
In the sixth episode, Acid Storm alongside the Seekers would join Starscream in his attack on the Autobot Command.
Earthrise[]
In the first episode, Acid Storm along with some Decepticons would bring the Autobots to Megatron. Acid Storm would bring Elita-1 from her personal cell to an execution arena.
After this, it is unknown what happened to him after this.
IDW Comics[]
In the past, Acid Storm was a member of a Seeker trio known as the Rainmakers, alongside Ion and Nova Storm. Acid Storm would join the Ascenticons and become a member of the Ascenticon Guard. He was first seen in The Cracks Beneath Your Feet, when he and Skytread, led by Senator Soundwave, barred Prowl's unit from arresting Barricade. When the Ascenticons were rebranded with a new insignia, Acid Storm was among the first to be rebranded.
As the Ascenticon Guard began recruiting members directly from The Rise in the aftermath of the Tether's destruction, Acid Storm reunited with his old teammates Ion Storm and Nova Storm. Elita-One noted this was a clear statement of military intent, and warned Soundwave that everybody would know it.
Shortly after Megatron rebranded their movement as the "Decepticons", the Rainmakers took part in the terrorist attack on the Senate. Acid Storm used his powers to melt through the ceiling, allowing the trio to ambush the crowd of unarmed senators in attendance. He was later seen tending to an overworked Ion Storm.
After seizing full control of the governing body, Megatron introduced the Rainmakers to his fellow Senators before Clench reported that Sentinel Prime had escaped, the Rainmakers being deployed to down and recapture him. Catching up to the Prime, Acid Storm fired a barrage that left him damaged enough to fall victim to being sliced in two by Nova Storm. Touching down, the trio regarded the Prime's dying cries for aid before retreating when Chromia opened fire on them. Though the Rainmakers' murder prompted a mixed reception in the Decepticon ranks, Acid Storm was present at the gladiatorial arena when Termagax returned to denounce the Decepticons, bearing witness to Megatron contemptuously opening fire on his mentor.
Acid Storm joined Strika's Heavies and other Decepticons in an assault on the Forge Pyramid, the last major institution in Iacon unclaimed by their forces. They found the Autobots meeting with Perceptor already and tried to storm the building. Acid Storm was in the process of dissolving his way through the defenses when Nova Storm carried out a message that the plasma coolant was shutting down. Those Decepticons that had breached the defenses fled along with the Autobots as the Pyramid melted in on itself.
Acid Storm and the Rainmakers were present when Megatron learned Optimus Prime and the Autobots had abandoned Iacon entirely.
Sixshot brought forth the Rainmakers when the Decepticons journeyed out to the Sea of Rust. They had been alerted that Termagax was there, in possession of the Enigma of Combination. The Decepticons had begun to rely on the Rainmakers too much, though, as Pyra Magna had snipers on the roof of Termagax's house, prepared for their approach. Arcee and Sureshot shot down Ion Storm and Acid Storm, while Windcharger used his magnetic powers to snare Nova Storm.
The Rainmakers later accompanied Megatron to his meeting with Exarchon. The Rainmakers flew with Megatron to intercept Optimus Prime and the Autobots before they reached Darkmount. Acid Storm and many other Seekers later fought Sky Lynx during the battle of Darkmount.
