This reads more like Fandom Rivalry, which already has an entry. Additionally, Bakugan was not hated in the west, quite the opposite in fact, it proved to be so popular in the west that it lead to the anime continuing past its first season, with the English dubs of those additional seasons releasing long before the Japanese dubs, becoming one of the very rare instances where an anime's English dub ended up overtaking its Japanese dub.

This is the original continuity's YMMV page. Viloch's Complete Monster entry is already on the Bakugan Battle Planet YMMV Page.
Deleted line(s) 10 (click to see context) :
** ''[[Anime/BakuganBattlePlanet Battle Planet]]'': [[BigBad Viloch]] is an Aurelus Bakugan and [[TokenEvilTeammate member]] of the Supreme Council whose [[FauxAffablyEvil veneer of refinement]] clouds an [[FantasticRacism intense hatred towards humanity]] and [[AmbitionIsEvil lust for power]]. Enlisting Gregorius Reed and his team of brawlers to fight on his behalf in the Battle Judgment tournament to decide whether Earth and Vestroia should be separated, Viloch plots behind Reed's back to betray him when the moment arises. Causing several Geogan agony as he merges with them against their will, Viloch becomes immensely powerful before turning on Reed and revealing his true plan to destroy the Earth and everyone on it once it's separated from Vestroia. When his fellow Council members and the Awesome Brawlers try to stop him, Viloch simply steals the power of the Faction Crystals to augment his own and knocks them down with ease. When it seems that he is on the brink of defeat against a similarly-empowered Drago, Viloch tosses his own ally Spartillion in the path of one of his opponent's attacks, callous and uncaring towards his well-being.

** ''Gundalian Invaders'' & ''[[spoiler: Mechtanium Surge part 1]]'': [[BigBad Emperor Barodius]] is the [[EvilOverlord sadistic leader]] of an alien race known as the Gundalians and hero Dan Kuso's ArchEnemy. Barodius invaded and planned to eventually destroy the peaceful world of Neathia in order to capture a powerful artifact known as the Sacred Orb, which would allow him to control all Bakugan and conquer all of reality. [[BadBoss Barodius]] cares nothing for his men, and treats them as expendable pawns to use and abuse, having them tortured for failing him or having them killed in order to gain an advantage. [[spoiler: Eventually defeated by the heroes and [[SealedEvilInACan imprisoned in an alternate universe]] for eternity by Code Eve for his attempted genocide, he was mutated there into Mag Mel. As Mag Mel, he formed a psychic link with Dan Kuso and Drago, which he used to [[MindRape torment Dan with terrible visions of the destruction he intends to cause on Earth]]. Barodius, now as Mag Mel, declares war on his homeworld of Gundalia, intending to wipe it and his people off the map before being stopped. His newly created CoDragons Sellon and Anubius are expendable as well, Mag Mel killing the former despite her begging him to stop and the latter for [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness living out his use]]. Mag Mel, after being fully revived, has all humans transferred to the dark dimension where he plans on torturing them. At full power, he sends monsters to the five biggest cities on Earth in order to drill to the Earth's core and blow it up, releasing a large amount of energy which he will use to [[OmnicidalManiac wipe out the entire universe]]]].

** ''Mechtanium Surge'' Arc 2: [[OmnicidalManiac Coredegon/Mechtavius Destroyer]] is a rogue Mechtogan obsessed with [[FinalSolution wiping out all the Bakugan]] so he can't be summoned to do battle. [[EstablishingCharacterMoment Introduced]] by [[AntagonisticOffspring destroying his progenitor Fury]], Coredegon and his entourage then travel to Bakugan City on Earth to wipe out all the Bakugan living there, along with their human partners. Defeated, Coredegon abducts the human Gunz Lazar and [[FrameUp copies his appearance]] to become Wiseman, a guise he uses to become empowered under the pretence of attacking humans to force them to give up their Bakugan. He then uses Gunz's likeness to infiltrate the Brawlers' HQ to steal a Bakumeter that allows him to summon Battle Suits for the Nonets, [[KickTheDog making the Brawlers, including Gunz's partner Reptak, think their friend has betrayed them in the process]]. Managing to defeat the Brawlers, Coredegon offers to [[SadisticChoice spare Bakugan City from destruction if the Brawlers kill their own partners]]. Regaining his full power, Coredegon murders the Nonet Balista for [[HeKnowsTooMuch suspecting his true operation]], before revealing himself to both sides by attacking them. Banishing the Brawlers to spend an eternity in the Doom Dimension, Coredegon then slaughters the Nonets for standing up to him, and in one BadFuture, murders all the Bakugan throughout the dimensions along with their partners and people living with them.
