"Tron" is Greek for a form of instrument (such as the "Metatron" from mythology was an instrument of God). These days, it's used as a suffix for advanced electronic technology in general, because of that Latin word "Electron" as well as the trope Tron Lines. But this trope is about how in fiction, it's used as a suffix just for Rule of Cool. Sometimes it's a name, sometimes it's a device that doesn't really fit the suffix, but it's called that anyway. This trope was especially common in The '80s as the explosion in personal computer and video game console sales during that decade made electronic devices and the resulting discourse around them much more mainstream. Compare Thing-O-Matic, The Something Force, Law of Alien Names and Xtreme Kool Letterz. See also Advanced Tech 2000, where an object's name is suffixed with a large number to make it sound impressive (and is sometimes used with this trope to make the name even more outlandish). |

A number of monsters in Power Rangers, although 'crons might be more common. It was even taken to the extreme in Power Rangers Beast Morphers with the Monsters Of The Week, Robotrons, with each one has a "-tron" suffix at the end of their names. It was even Lampshaded by the show's stunt team at Power Morphicon when they had a fan play a monster named "Hairgelatron". | |

World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade features a Fel Reaver named Negatron, obviously as a reference to Megatron. In Wrath of the Lich King, the name of Ulduar boss Mimiron's Combining Mecha sounds close enough, V-07-TR-0N. Cataclysm has the Omnitron Defense System, consisting of four Dark Iron Dwarf golems- Electron, Arcanotron, Magmatron, and Toxitron. |

One of the early weapons in Warframe was a Corpus Sniper Rifle called Snipetron, but it was replaced with visually identical Lanka due to conflicting with Corpus' status as a producer of energy weaponsnote You can still get a blueprint for it from the occasional Plague Star event, and Corpus occasionally offers parts to its improved Vandal variant as invasion payment.. There's also Detron, a sidearm plasma shotgun. | |

Batman: Professor Pyg refers to his surgically modified minions as "Dollotrons". While the "doll" part of their name makes sense (given their appearance and Pyg's own obsessions), the "-tron" suffix is less explicable, as the Dollotrons are by all accounts entirely human, with no electronic components. Of course, Professor Pyg isn't the most rational person to begin with; the name likely makes sense to him and him alone. | |

Noein features enemy mechas called "Destructrons", which is somewhat of a narm for some, as it doesn't really fit the series' serious tone. | |

Several Transformers have had this over the years, most notably Megatron and Galvatron, and the Transformers' home planet of Cybertron. Other notables from the toylines include Banzai-Tron, Magmatron, and Computron. In Japan, quite a few evil factions have been known as the Destrons, while their good counterparts were known as Cybertrons (the planet was called Seibertron instead). | |
