[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/danbb_8614.jpg]]

!!'''Dan Kuso''' (Creator/YuuKobayashi and Scott [=McCord=]) & Pyrus Dragonoid '''‘Drago’''' (Creator/KeijiFujiwara & Jason Deline)

* AllLovingHero: Drago.
* {{Badass}}: Both, since they have battled many powerful enemies during the series.
* TheChosenOne: Drago.
* CrystalDragonJesus: Points to Drago for being an actual Dragon.
** And, at one point, an actual crystal.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: [[FoeYay Spectra/Keith's obsession towards Dan]]
* EvolutionPowerup: 9 so far with a restart at 4.
** Deconstructed in Season 4. His latest evolution is causing a '''''massive''''' amount of grief to everyone. This includes causing him and Dan to fall out from grace with their InUniverse fanbase, creating an unstoppable engine of destruction, and threatening to set loose the SealedEvilInACan that's serving as this season's BigBad.
*** Make that 10 times now that Drago has evolved.
* FingerlessGloves: Dan, Battle Brawlers only.
* GogglesDoNothing: Dan.
* IdiotHero: Any of the GET PUMPED scenes in New Vestroia should tell you why Dan is this.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Shun and Marucho, to a lesser extent.
* HotBlooded
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Dan
* MerchandiseDriven: Drago is the best example of this trope with over 25 products for him in the last 3 years.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Drago (Whose full name is Dragonoid)
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Drago, all of his forms.
* PlayingWithFire: Most of Dan's Bakugan, including Drago.
* PowerIncontinence: Definitely. [[spoiler: In the new season, Drago has become so powerful, his power alone nearly destroyed the battle field of Bakugan Interspace (considering the high power levels Bakugan has reached, some would say it is about time)]]. Things get worse later: [[spoiler: The power has become far too much for him to control, which is forcing them to concentrate too much on keeping it under control to win matches. Not only that, its now ''literally'' created a monster and is threatening to let [[BigBad Mag Mel]] out of [[SealedEvilInACan his prison]].]]
*** Despite the fact that they have now learned to control their new powers, and have [[TookAlevelInBadass taken multiple levels in Badass]], managing to summon a Mechtogan Titan recently, which curb-stomped three other Mechtogan within a minute, which occurred through learning to control Zenthon, the energy from their battles has given Mag Mel EXACTLY what he needed to start tearing apart Bakugan Interspace.
* TotallyRadical: Dan in the first few episodes of ''Battle Brawlers''.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Shun.

* OlderThanTheyLook: Marucho is ''fifteen''. He's still at Dan's waist.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: You didn't know his name was Choji till now.
* TheQuietOne: Preyas, more or less.

* VitriolicBestBuds: With Dan.

* ChildhoodFriends: With Billy.
* CulturalTranslation: Julie is supposed to be Australian, really. At least it’s averting most negative RaceTropes.

* DishingOutDirt: Gorem and most of Julie's Bakugan.
* FingerlessGloves: Julie has these in ''Battle Brawlers''.

** Though surprisingly good at [[GeniusDitz working with computers and brawling]].

* YoungerThanTheyLook: Baron is twelve, but he's as tall, if not taller, than Ace (who's sixteen). And he's easily one of the most muscular characters in New Vestroia.

[[AC: Debuted In: Battle Brawlers]]

* CoolBigSis: To the entire team, but largely to Runo and Shun.

* DemotedToExtra: Like Runo and Julie, Alice and Hydranoid have greatly reduced roles in the later seasons.

* FragileFlower
* [[spoiler:GenderBender]]: [[spoiler: Alice transforms into the male Masquerade due to being infused with some dark energy during the initial incident that severed the barrier between earth and Vestroia.

* TheStrategist: Acts like this before she can brawl.
* TheSixthRanger: If we were to go by Brawling.
* [[spoiler:SuperpoweredEvilSide]]: [[spoiler:Masquerade]].

* CainAndAbel: The Cain to Wyvern's Abel.
* FlatCharacter: Doesn't get much onscreen growth, but that's partly because he's controling things from behind the scenes the entire time.

* DangerouslyGenreSavvy:
** How does he react to getting a PsychicLink with TheHero? Not only does he use it to MindRape them, he uses it to take advantage of their ever growing power to absorb their energy to free him from his prison and get even stronger. He also takes advantage of the heroes being preoccupided with the chaos at Bakugan Interspace to get Team Anubias, his minions into it and start destroying it from within. And apparently [[spoiler:a lot of Bakugan being used by people in Interspace were sleeper agents for him.]]
** He was also smart enough to bypass the SortingAlgorithmOfEvil the moment he was free and attack the Brawlers personally ''before'' they could become strong enough to be on his level. And his entire assault on Gundalia turns out to be ThePlan. Winning didn't matter because he sent ''another'' group to Interspace and pretty much crippled it.
** [[spoiler:Turns out he's actually Emperor Barodius. Apparently, he's ''very'' good at learning from his past mistakes.]]
* [[spoiler:DevourTheDragon: Once Mistress Sellon [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness outlived her usefulness]], Mag Mel kills her and absorbs her energy to fuel his rebirth. He does it again to Anubias the very next episode.]]
* DiskOneFinalBoss: Is beaten half way through Mechtanium Surge after Drago evolves into Fusion Dragonoid.
* EmotionEater: As if he wasn't already terrifying enough, he can eat ''fear'' in addition to energy.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: His incapable of understanding that [[spoiler:he lost because Dan and Drago's HeroicResolve and [[ThePowerOfFriendship faith in their friends]] trumps his PowerOfHate and anger.]]
* HiddenVillain: Nothing was known about him at first, and his true identity is only made known when Dan shatters his mask [[spoiler:revealing he's actually Emperor Barodius.]]
* [[spoiler:HoistByHisOwnPetard: Drago and Dan actually warned them that stolen power which wasn't their own would be their downfall. After Dan and Drago took the Gate and Key away from him and Razenoid, their stolen energy fails them, allowing Drago to kill Razenoid, Mag Mel being mortally wounded in the process.]]
* [[spoiler:KarmicDeath: Kind of subverted. While his own actions did lead to his downfall, he and Razenoid are the only main villains to date that Dan and Drago actually killed in battle.]]
* KnightOfCerebus: His arc is considerably more frightening than the previous villains, do in part to the simple fact that unlike the previous {{Big Bad}}s, he's not after anything. He's just a murderious OmnicidalManiac whose goal is to destroy the world. Not to mention the fact he's spent most of his arc performing a truly horrifying MindRape on Dan and Drago. To put this in perspective, he attacked Gundalia and began ''burning it to the ground''.
* MadeOfEvil: [[spoiler:Mag Mel's armor was created by Code Eve from Barodius' evil as a means to imprison him.]]
* ManipulativeBastard: He's pretty good at manipulating people as well, having pretty much created his two CoDragons to do this in Bakugan Interspace, since he was imprisoned at the time.
* MindRape: Another thing he's been using his PsychicLink with Dan and Drago for. The worst part is, he actually seems to ''enjoy it!''
* MookMaker: Can create Chaos Bakugan, mindless monsters existing only to destroy. He also created Anubias and Sellon.
* NothingIsScarier: So far, there's very little known about who or what he is except he was imprisoned for genocide and is an OmnicidalManiac seeking to destroy Earth. Arguably, this makes him even scarier than the other main villains.
** In-universe, part of what makes Dan and Drago so unnerved by his is the simple fact they have no idea where he came from or what he wants with them.
* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler:After Dan and Drago manage to unlock the power of the gate and key they have that he wants, they seeminly vaporize him but it turns out he escaped and is continuing his plot, and he now has part of Drago's gate. It turns out he was a case of this all along, as he's actually Emperor Barodius.]]
** This would count to Emperor Barodius as well due to everyone believing he and Dharak were killed by Code Eve. They were actually imprisoned in another dimension and became Mag Mel and Razenoid.
* OmnicidalManiac: If his minions are to be believed, his goal is to destroy the world. Considering it's said he was imprisoned for '''genocide''', this is a pretty safe bet. And the first thing he did after being unleashed was attack Gundalia with the intent of ''burning it to the ground''. [[spoiler:His ultimate plan is revealed to be destroying Earth to let loose a ''[[WorldWreckingWave Universe]]'' [[WorldWreckingWave Wrecking Wave]] that will destroy every living thing in range of it.]]
* OneWingedAngel: [[spoiler:Turns out he ''is'' one for Emperor Barodius and Razenoid is one to Dharak. Razenoid eventually evolves as well.]]
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Dharak, a standard quadrupedal Western style dragon which was a refreshing change of pace. Continued to be different from the others when he evolved into Phantom Dharak. Then he became Razenoid, a freaking spider legged dragon, whoopy.
* OrcusOnHisThrone: Justified at first because he was literally [[SealedEvilInACan sealed on his throne]]. Subverted, as he's the first BigBad to lead his forces on the battlefield the moment he was out of his prison and able to.
* ThePowerOfHate: Is a firm believer in this. [[spoiler:[[EvilCannotComprehendGood And is ultimately proven wrong]] when it's beaten by ThePowerOfFriendship and HeroicResolve.]]
* PsychicLink: Drago's newest evolution resulted in him and Mag Mel being linked in this fashion. Mel is presently attempting to drain his energy to break free of his prison. He's also been using it to MindRape them both and later to read Dan's mind to find out what the Brawlers were planning. [[spoiler:He eventually cuts it when Dan starts using it against him.]]
* TheReveal: [[spoiler:He's actually Emperor Barodius, incased in the armor of his own evil by Code Eve and imprisoned in another universe. The genocide he committed being his attempted destruction of Neathia.]]
* SadisticChoice: Makes the Brawlers choose between killing an innocent person and deleting his Chaos Bakugan army. [[spoiler:Thankfully, Spectra and Dan both pull BigDamnHeroes moments to stop them from having to make the choice.]]
* SealedEvilInACan: Presently imprisoned in another dimmension along with his Guardian Bakugan. Thankfully for him, he's got a PsychicLink to Drago whose got a good bit of excess power to spare. And now, he's finally free, and his first act was to launch an all out attack on Gundalia. [[spoiler:The reason for his imprisonment is revealed to be his attempted destruction of Neathia when he was Emperor Barodius.]]
* [[spoiler:TakingYouWithMe: He tries this on Dan after being defeated in "The Final Takedown." All the energy he's absorbed is released when he's defeated and he tries to use it to take Dan and Drago down with him.]]
* [[spoiler:ThatManIsDead: Mag Mel says this about his previous self Emperor Barodius.]]
* [[spoiler:TookALevelInBadass: He's gotten ''much'' harder to beat now compared to when he was Barodius, not only getting much stronger, but ''much'' smarter.]]
* XanatosSpeedChess
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: [[spoiler:To Mistress Sellon after she successfully got the Key from Dan. He "rewards" her by slowly killing her and then absorbing her energy. He even told her and Anubias that this would be their fate once they were no longer of use to him. He does it again to Anubias an episode later. It's no suprise, as he's actually ''Emperor Barodius!'']]

[[folder:Evil Mechtogan/Mechtavius Destroyer]]

!!'''Coredegon'''
* ANaziByAnyOtherName: He and his fellows intend to perform genocide on the Bakugan to pave the way for their new MasterRace of Mechtogan. As can be expected, he considers everyone else, especially Bakugan, inferior to him and the other evolved Mechtogan.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Is the leader of the four Mechtogan and the most powerful of them. And according to the game, his G-Power exceeds that of a Mechtogan Titan. And that's ''without'' turning into Mechtavius Destroyer.
* BigBad: [[spoiler:Turns out that he and Wiseman were the same person, making him the ''true'' BigBad of the season.]]
* CastingAShadow
* CombiningMecha: Is able to combine with his three fellows to form the Mechtavius Destroyer. It also appears that he's the one who controls the combined form, forming the head, left arm, and core of the body.
* DangerouslyGenreSavvy:
** He's got a massive ego, but is smart enough to attack ''before'' a person can throw out their Mechtogan and attempt to kill Bakugan in ball form.
** He also learned from his past mistakes, targeting and taking out Drago ''before'' he could summon Dragonoid Destroyer, the thing that's beat him and his brothers twice before.
* DarkIsEvil
* DevourTheDragon: [[spoiler:Does this to the Nonet Bakugan. He actually ''offers'' them the option to go willingly, but they try to fight back, only for him to kill them one by one and absorb them.]]
* HeroKiller: [[spoiler:''Literally'' once he arrives on New Vestoria, he starts murdering previous heroes like they're nothing ''in mass''. Not to mention ''leveling Bakugan city!'' Thankfully, the heroes managed to go back in time to stop him.]]
* [[spoiler:TheJuggernaut: After going OneWingedAngel. Even Dragonoid Destroyer can't stop him and he's powerful enough to level an entire island in one strike.]]
** [[spoiler:What does it take to finally stop him? Dragonoid Destroyer being powered up by the ''energy of every Bakugan and human bond on earth'' that rose his power to ''infinite''. And even then, he manages to resist it for a good time.]]
* LikeABadassOutOfHell: Came from the Doom Dimension, pretty much the Bakugan equalivalant of Hell.
* ManipulativeBastard
* OneWingedAngel: [[CombiningMecha Mechtavius Destroyer]] probably counts, considering he controls it. [[spoiler:[[DevourTheDragon Absorbed most the Nonets]] to turn into a [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever gigantic version of Mechtavius Destroyer]] with enough power that, if he wasn't stopped, he could singlehandedly wipe out ALL Bakugan and level an entire city in one attack.]]
* [[spoiler:ThisCannotBe: He's completely incapable of believing that Dragonoid Destroyer's power has exceeded his own, even when he's being completely overpowered.]]
* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: Lead his fellow evolved Bakugan against their creators and now seeks to exterminate all the Bakugan.
* VillainTeamUp: Despite his hatred of Bakugan, he and his fellows are willing to work with Wiseman and his minions simply because they hate the Brawlers ''more''. [[spoiler:Subverted because he ''is'' Wiseman and it was all part of his plan to gain the power he needed to become completely self sustaining.]]
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: The first thing we see him do is vaporize his creator now that he's evolved to the point he doesn't need him anymore. He now intends to do this to ''all'' Bakugan.
** [[spoiler:Does this to the Nonets once he doesn't need them anymore.]]

* WellIntentionedExtremist: Seems to honestly believe seperating the humans and Bakugan is the right thing to do. [[spoiler:Subverted, as it turned out to be Coredegon using the Nonets to get enough power to revive himself.]]
* VillainTeleportation
* VillainousValour: [[spoiler:During their battle with Coredegon. They're ''completely'' outmatched, but they [[{{Determinator}} fight with everything they've got]] and one of them even pulls a "HeroicSacrifice" in a desperate attempt to give one of his "brothers" the openning he needs to fight back.]]
