Description
Hydorous, a lion-like Bakugan primarily aligned with the Aquos faction, exhibits a Darkus variant under Shun Kazami's doppelgänger. Renowned as the "prince of the seas," he displays overt aggression, speed, and agility—traits contrasting with partner Shun Kazami's thoughtful tactics. Despite differing temperaments, their styles synergize in battles and daily interactions. Hydorous serves as Shun’s main partner throughout most events, temporarily replaced by Sharktar during Geogan Rising.
Their alliance predates Shun joining the Awesome Ones. A pivotal early clash pits Hydorous against Magnus’s Webam and Fangzor in a competition. Though initially overwhelmed and aided by Lia and Wynton’s Bakugan, the encounter showcases Shun and Hydorous’s coordinated teamwork, securing their Awesome Ones membership despite defeat. Hydorous later engages in critical missions like rescuing Bear from hunter Strata.
Hydorous evolves multiple times to enhance power and adaptability:
- **Hyper Hydorous**: Boosts B-Power to 800 Bs, significantly amplifying combat prowess.
- **Elemental Evolutions**: During Evolutions, Strength Mode (focused on physical force) and Speed Mode (prioritizing agility) emerge, both at 700 Bs. Strength Mode aligns with the Neo Hydorous toy variant, while Speed Mode corresponds to Core Hydorous. These forms arise from Vestroian elemental energy affecting Earth.
In combat, Hydorous deploys diverse abilities: Aquos Hurricane (spinning water tornado), Claw Cutter (rapid claw strikes), Mysterious Mist (tactical fog), and Riptide Rippers (Nanogan-enhanced Speed Mode attack). Equipment like Baku-Gear Blitz Storm and Nanogan Riptide augment his aquatic-themed assaults. He frequently collaborates with allies, exemplified by receiving aid against Webam and Fangzor.
Physically, Hydorous transforms from a spherical BakuBall into a robotic lion. Toy variants span Core and Ultra forms across factions, with B-Power fluctuating per release—such as Aurelus Core Hydorous at 800 Bs in Armored Alliance. Evolutions introduces Platinum and Mythic variants. Non-canon narratives like Battle for the Joystick feature lighter conflicts with Drago, detached from the main storyline.
Hydorous continuously adapts to threats through new forms, remaining central to Shun’s strategies and the Awesome Brawlers’ mission to defend Earth and Vestroia.
