Bakugan Battle Brawlers

The story begins with a young boy named Dan who has never lost a Bakugan match. While in a match against a bully Dan sees a vision of two Bakugan brawling. Is there more to the game than what the players think?

The peace of New Vestroia does not last long. A race called the Vestals invade and colonize New Vestroia, turning the Bakugan back into balls and making them their slaves for amusement, not knowing that Bakugan are intelligent creatures. One by one the six fighting Bakugan are captured leaving only Drago. In an effort to stop this, Drago is separated from the core of Vestroia by the six legendary warriors, and heads to Earth to seek out Dan Kuso, and the two leave for New Vestroia, with Marucho following after overhearing Drago's plan to leave the others behind. After they learn that the Vestals are responsible for the state New Vestroia has fallen into, he challenges Lync Volan and Volt Luster, two members of the Vexos. A Vestal named Mira, part of the Bakugan Brawlers Resistance, interrupts and tells Dan of the new brawling style required for Bakugan battles. Dan manages to adapt to the new method quickly and wins two Bakugan from Lync and Volt.

It's an all new adventure for the Bakugan Battle Brawlers when Dan's family moves to Bayview City and Marucho's Bakugan Interspace becomes fully operational to everyone, allowing kids all over the world to log on and display their battling skills. Dan heads to a cafe in town where Julie works to meet with his new friend Jake, a young brawler who is new to the game. The two make there way to Bakugan Interspace where they meet up with Marucho who gives Jake Subterra Coredem. Dan and Jake immediately want to battle, but discover that all the available arenas are occupied. They eventually meet up with Ren and Shun, who is locked in battle with Shuji. With Shun quickly seizing victory, Ren is scheduled to battle Dan next. As the battle intensifies, Marucho is forced to shut down Bakugan Interspace and Dan is knocked out cold. Before coming to, Dan has a vision of Bakugan at war each other, something which everyone, except Ren, brushes off as a hallucination.

It has been one year since the events in Gundalia, and Bakugan Interspace has grown greatly. Marucho has teamed up with a Bakugan from Gundalia, Tristar, while Shun's partner is Taylean, a Bakugan from Neathia. After winning a battle, Dan and Drago learn that there have been two groups of battlers, Team Sellon and Team Anubias who have risen to high ranks not far behind Dan. Dan has a nightmare the following night in which a mysterious entity demands that Dan give him something. Drago, who also had a vision of a bakugan during the earlier battle, speculates that the two events may be related. Unconcerned by this deadly and skilled competition, Dan challenges Ben, a member of Team Anubias to a brawl. While Dan and Drago initially struggle due to the battle environment and faced against two bakugan. They struggle and just before they are about to lose, the entity again appears to Dan (Drago sees the image of the bakugan) and tells him to release his hidden power and destroy ben and his bakugan, also giving him all the power. They ultimately pull out a win after realeasing that power. However, Drago is unable to control the power nearly destroying the arena. This leaves Dan and Drago to wonder about the dangers of this latest discovery and if they are a threat.
