* MadeOfEvil: He's the AnthropomorphicPersonification of death and destruction, and even runs on Dark Energon, which is the exact opposite of the life-giving Energon that the Transformers' use as their lifeblood.



* SpontaneousWeaponCreation: Unicron is capable of constructing weapons with his Dark Energon. In the fight itself, he constructs a sword to slice Galactus [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe in half]].

* MythologyGag: One of the names Unicron is apparently known by is Earth, as at least two continuities cast him as having been EarthAllAlong. He isn’t Earth in the fight animation; instead, he and Galactus both trying to ''eat'' it is how the fight starts.

* CharacterCatchphrase: The two have their fair share of them:
** Scooby uses his ever famous "Scooby Dooby Doo!" right as he goes to punch the Earth as a [[VideoGame/AsurasWrath Wyzen sized dog god.]]
** Courage has his incoherent babble, exclaiming "What do I do, what do I do?!" when scared, and his RunningGag of proclaiming something is bad, [[OrMyNameIsnt "or my name isn't "insert random name here"]]... and it's not."


Added DiffLines:

* StreetSmart: The post-battle analysis pegs him as this compared to Courage's BookSmart[=s=]. He usually uses trickery with his mastery of the dupe to confuse he's enemies in order to lead them into traps. In the battle itself, he uses his ability to duplicate to use Courage as an unwitting third member of the Zobrinsky Triangle, for the purpose of using it as a universe-grade flashbang to keep the beagle busy while he heads for the Mystery Machine.


Added DiffLines:

* BookSmart: The post-battle analysis pegs him as this compared to Scooby's StreetSmart[=s=]. He usually goes about dealing with his MonsterOfTheWeek by figuring out their weaknesses, usually with the help of Computer, in order to take them down. In the battle itself, he uses Computer to figure out a way to defeat Scooby, deliberately wording his question in a vague enough manner as to circumvent Computer's canonical lack of knowledge of the Great Dane himself.


Added DiffLines:

* VolumetricMouth: His mouth tends to outsize his body any time he screams. When he unleashes his SuperScream in order to counter Scooby's god level punch of the Earth, his mouth outright eclipses his entire body in size.

** The Power Cosmic the that composes Galactus' being is said to provide him with "fundamental control over life itself."



* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Galactus possesses the same level of power as Unicron on top of being a RealityWarper, but he's also ''much'' stronger due to having fought beings comparable to himself thanks to the infinite size of the ''Marvel'' multiverse, giving him no shortage of opponents as well as the fact that Galactus can actively threaten multiple universes just by fighting someone equal to him in power. Unicron, by comparison, has stiff competition due to the much more limited size of the ''Transformers'' multiverse and can only destroy one universe at a time.

* AsLongAsThereIsEvil: Unicron is the physical embodiment of evil, hatred, and destruction, and thus will always exist so long as those concepts do.To destroy Unicron is itself a paradox because the very act of destruction is what gives him life and so he is able to ultimately survive and return even if his very Spark[[note]]his soul[[/note]] is destroyed. Galactus's Ultimate Nullifier completely sidesteps this issue however, as it goes far beyond even erasing its target from existence, but rather ''erases and then reconstructs the entire multiverse'' without the target ever having existed at all.

* HorrorHunger: Galactus ''needs'' to eat planets to sustain himself, and if he goes without eating for too long he starts to weaken badly. This is his major weakness compared to Unicron, who doesn't suffer any power loss from being unable to devour planets for periods of time, but luckily for Galactus his raw power and tools means he can end the fight before it becomes an issue.



* NormalFishInATinyPond: While Unicron is one of the most powerful beings in his multiverse, that’s only because there is nobody else powerful to challenge him outside of his brother Primus. The Marvel multiverse is filled with beings at, or even above, his level of power, and Galactus has traded blows with many of them before.

* NormalFishInATinyPond: Well, a "relatively-small pond", according to Wiz, at least when comparing the Transformers multiverse to the Marvel multiverse.

The Marvel multiverse is filled with beings at, or even above, his level of power, and Galactus has traded blows with many of them before.

* DeaderThanDead: DeaderThanDead:
** Downplayed in the fight animation. Whenever Unicron's physical body is destroyed, his will and Spark will simply leave for another body to inhabit or enter a different universe.
Galactus not only destroys his current body, but also ''eats'' his spirit as well, ensuring the Chaos Bringer is dead for good.good...for now, as it's noted even with the destruction of his Spark, Unicron will eventually be reborn thanks to being the AnthropomorphicPersonification of hate, evil, and destruction, even if in a different part in the multiverse.
** Played straight in the post-analysis, where it's noted that Ultimate Nullifier ''would'' inflict this on Unicron if it successfully hits despite his absurd unkillability otherwise, with Unicron only avoiding this fate in the fight animation by stealing the Nullifier before Galactus can actually fire it at him and Galactus subsequently going for his [[SoulEating different killing move]]. This combined with Galactus's own defenses against the Nullifier being turned against him is the major factor in Unicron's loss.

* GratuitousIambicPentameter: Starting with Unicron, both combatants begin speaking in iambic pentameter during the last half of the fight. This is likely a ShoutOut to Creator/StanLee's love of using theatrical language for his cosmic beings and gods.
-->'''Unicron:''' Beg not for mercy, behold black'nd sky\\
Against mine chaos, even ''gods'' will die!
-->'''Galactus:''' Galactus meets your challenge, hears your call\\
This war will bring destruction to it all.

* UnderestimatingBadassery: Fitting his arrogance being his FatalFlaw, Rick underestimates the Doctor, flat out saying he's going to 'die an idiot' and just calling him a clown. Unfortunately for Rick, the Doctor is actually ruled to be ''far'' smarter than Rick is, and proceeds to defeat Rick by outsmarting him.

* SuperToughness: While the Doctor's physical abilities are stated to be not far above average for human (outside of regeneration circumstances), it ''is'' noted that he's more durable, such as surviving a lightning bolt that vaporized humans. This may have played a role in how getting chestbursted wasn't lethal to him (but this ''was'' also one of those regeneration circumstances).

** Meanwhile, Unicron's Dark Energon is cited as the opposite of the life-giving normal Energon that fuels other Transformers, essentially making him an entity powered by death.
