Nightbeat is the name of the Mini-Con partner of the Autobot Sideswipe. His first comic appearance was in issue 18 of Dreamwave's Transformers: Armada comic.
Nightbeat's Dreamwave bio presented him as small and physically unimpressive even for a Mini-Con: however, his raw courage more than makes up for this. Unfortunately, this usually means goading his partner Sideswipe into more and more daring acts - usually leading to the two landing in a lot of trouble.
According to Hasbro officials the names of Side Swipe and his Mini-Con partner were accidentally swapped, meaning the larger blue and yellow Autobot was intended to be Nightbeat.
