Bugly the butt-ugly bug Pretender got his name because of his secondary function as the Decepticon army's most talented bugler.
(It's actually pronounced 'Byoogly'.)

It's true - the Scraplet's been watching the 2018 Thomas and Friends series on Netflix, and it's just not right not having Ringo's iconic drawl.
