History
The Toa Mata were created by Artakha on his island with the purpose of reawakening Mata Nui if he ever fell asleep. They were put into stasis in Toa Canisters in the Codrex until such a time when they would be needed.

Toa Tuyet wished to recruit the Toa Mata into her Toa Empire, so she learned of their location from Artakha and sent some of her own Toa to find them. However, none of these Toa reached their destination, so Tuyet looked into alternate means of recovering the Toa Mata instead. Eventually, she found a hidden area of the Coliseum from which she could fake the launch signal for the Toa Mata's Toa Canisters. Tuyet found the Toa when they washed ashore and persuaded them that the Makuta and Dark Hunters were plotting to take over the Matoran Universe and that the only way to stop them was to join the Toa Empire and kill them. The six Toa Mata were drafted into the Toa Empire and taken back to Metru Nui, where each individual member was assigned certain tasks across the city. Because there was no need for the Toa Mata as a team anymore, it subsequently ceased to exist.

In Dusk and Dawn, Pohatu was still referred to as a Toa Mata long after the deaths of most of his former teammates.
