[edit] Bladebreakers
[edit] Tyson Granger
| Tyson Granger | |
| Japanese name | Takao Kinomiya |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Dragoon |
| Attacks | Phantom Hurricane attack and Tornado Evolution attack |
The heart of the team with his bit-beast Dragoon (Seiryu in the Japanese version). Brought up in a dojo in Japan, he was trained by his grandfather. His father was an archeologist who travelled all around the world and studied ancient civilizations. He inherited Dragoon from his ancestors, which was isolated in a sword and unknown to anyone in the recent past. Tyson's goal is to become the world champion Beyblader, and his dreams came true when Dragoon entered his blade. After this, he met his would-be team member Ray in a selection match against his Driger Beyblade, and then went on to recruit Kai, forming the Bladebreakers (known as Team BBA in the original Japanese version). During the third season, G-Revolution, he met up with his "long-lost" older brother Hiro, who became the new coach of the team. For a short period of time at the start of the second season, V-Force, Tyson was unable to call upon Dragoon because he had forgotten the joy of Beyblading and started to think of it no longer as a game. Tyson is the typical main character type of Shonen animes. He is a loud and outgoing person and has more determination than the rest of the characters. He lacks in proper leadership skills and often needs someone to teach and guide him, Kai and Hiro fulfill these roles. He's the type that becomes too cocky after winning too much and as a result needs to be taught a lesson every once and a while. He's a fierce attack blader and his Dragoon is a force to be reckoned with.
[edit] Max Tate
| Max Tate | |
 |
|
| Japanese name | Max Mizuhara |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Draciel |
| Attacks | Heavy Viper Wall |
Max is one of the most cheerful members of the Bladebreakers. He prefers defensive strategies over offensive ones. However, that doesn't mean he can't use offense at all. His bit-beast is Draciel. He meets Tyson while Tyson is attempting to save a puppy from going over the falls. Max ends up saving the dog using a better angle of his beyblade. Max offers to help train Tyson when he brings Tyson home to meet his father. At first Kenny doesn't trust Max but then Tyson soon convinces him. He likes mustard on noodles as seen in G rev. Max is an outgoing and generally optimistic character despite past events in his life. He lives with his father in Japan for series one and moves to America to live with his mother in G Revolution. He found it difficult to cope with his mother and father's divorce when he was younger and it reflected sometimes in the first series. Max is close to his family and friends and views many people as a friend. Even though he seems harmless he's very skilled at defensive blading.
After the world championships(V-force/2002), Max leaves the BBA Revolution to join the All Starz at the request of his mother Judy.

He joins the Bladebreakers but leaves again in the 3rd series to rejoin his old team and form the White Tiger X team. He always tries to battle with Tyson. His bitbeast is the White Tiger, Driger. Rei has an adventerous personality in the way what he sets out to improve his Beyblading skills with Driger. He does have loyalties to his team but gaining strength and becoming one with Driger are also important to him. Tyson is someone he works to battle with, he leaves the White Tiger team in order to train harder and face better opponents. After being on the same team as Tyson, he decides to go back to his old team to remain loyal to them and so that he can face Tyson in future. He's a generally calm Beyblader and can stay focused and determined in difficult situations.
| Kai Hiwatari | |
| Japanese name | Kai Hiwatari |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Dranzer |
| Attacks | Blazing Gigus Tempest |
[edit] Kai Hiwatari
The leader of the team (1st and 2nd Season), and former leader to the Blade Sharks.He is a sourpuss at times. He was trained under Boris' academy for young Russian beybladers, along with the rest of the Demolition Boys. Though his nationality is Japanese. His bit-beast is Dranzer, though he got the vicious Black Dranzer from his grandfather. He thought Black Dranzer was the strongest bitbeast in the entire world, until the Bladebreakers managed to beat him by uniting all of their bitbeast Powers. (Dragoon, Draciel, Driger and Dranzer --given by Kai to Tyson in episode: "Losing Kai"--) After the battle at lake Bajkal, Kai rejoins the Bladebreakers. He goes back to the abbey and launches Black Dranzer into the system of the abbey.
After that he seem to matured as he talked more with his teammates. Instead of talking in riddles, which Tyson suggests, he now give hints to his fellow Bladebreakers in order to archive victory. His bit-beast only comes out of its chip when Kai tells Dranzer to use his final attack.
[edit] Kenny (Kyouju)
The brains of the team. He is a "self-described nerd". Kenny takes care of beyblade upgrades for the team with the bit-beast in his computer, Dizzi. "Dizzi" is a female bit-beast whose voice and "face" (she doesn't have a real face) were created in the American dub of the first two seasons of Beyblade. She was caught in Kenny's computer during a "freaky power surge". Dizzi did not exist in the original version. She was dropped during G-Revolution. Known as "Chief". Kenny is also the genius who created the HMS series in the anime.
[edit] Hilary Tachibana (Hiromi Tachibana)
One of Tyson's 'friends' from school. She didn't like Beyblading, but now, has grown an admiration for beyblading, by hanging with Tyson so much, but she still doesn't 'play' it, just watch on the side-lines. There are no official pairings between her and any character in the series, but she does throw a few hints about crushing on Tyson, also in series two when Kai and Hilary have to climb a rumble of rocks some collapse and Kai protects her, she blushes at this moment and becomes sort of shy, but still nothing serious.
[edit] Daichi Sumeragi
Daichi Sumeragi (皇 大地 Sumeragi Daichi?) is one of the newest members of the BBA Revolution, and has a variant of Tyson's Dragoon bit-beast called Strata Dragoon. He was a popular character in the manga, and also appeared in many of the Beyblade video games which could possibly explain why fans wanted him to appear in G-Revolution. His personality is very similar to Tyson's.
[edit] Hiro Granger (Hitoshi Kinomiya)
Tyson's older brother and the BBA Revolution trainer. Hiro may not beyblade often, except when he's dressed up as Jin. He had originally been on an excavation with his father, until helping Tyson and his friends to win the World Championships. During the BEGA arc, Hitoshi switches sides and helps out BEGA instead in order to create a strong rival for Tyson. His bit-beast is Metal Driger. In the English manga is called "Hitoshi" in a few volumes before the name was changed to "Hiro".
Hiro is also known as "Jin of the Gale". Under this alter ego, he's there to give guidance to the BBA team, but does it through battles. Jin uses the bit-beast Metal Driger. Incidentally, Jin means metal in Chinese. In the original manga, Jin is known as "Hurricane Jin", where he has a different appearance, looking more like a ninja than his "Jin of the Gale" anime counterpart. He is also the one who gives Tyson his Dragoon in the manga series.
[edit] Mr. B
Mr. B only appears in the manga. He is the African-American scientist that Kenny meets after watching Ray train for his battle with Tyson in volume 2. He and Jin created the Spin-Gear system which was first used by Ray, and he made Kenny create a left-spin gear to create Dragoon S.During the "Bakuten Shoot V Saga" in the manga,he gave Ray and Max the "Magnacore".His rival is Tyson's bro Hiro seeing how they are both into the deep secrets of Beyblading and the Holy Monster series,but they work together quite well.It is unknown why he was not in the anime.
[edit] Blade Sharks
[edit] Carlos (Hiruta)
A beyblader who's part of Kai's old team, the Blade Sharks. Carlos enjoyed picking on beybladers weaker than himself and taking their beyblade parts as his reward for beating them. He was thrown off the team after Kai - the leader - witnessed his defeat against Tyson. In the manga he fights Daichi and ends up losing in the side story "Explosive Shoot", in which after he thinks that Daichi may be the one to finally beat Tyson.
Casey, Trevor, and Stuart are his teammates
[edit] White Tigers
[edit] Lee (Li)
The leader of the White Tigers team. Lee was once Rei's best friend, until Rei left. This act really made Lee and the other White Tigers (excluding Mariah) mad at him, wanting revenge. After Ray abandoned leadership of the White Tigers, Lee took the mantle. In the Asian Tournament Lee got his chance for revenge on Rei in a tie-breaker round, but was defeated. Lee's bit-beast is Galeon, a black lion who uses lightning in its attacks. He's a bit of a hot-head and tends to have a "closed mind" as Tyson says, suggesting that Lee is too set on rules. Lee also doesn't like major changes (such as Rei leaving)
[edit] Mariah Wong (Mao)
| Mariah Wong | |
| Japanese name | Mao |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Galux |
| Attacks | Cat Scratch Attack. |
The second-in-command of the White Tigers team. Mariah was the only team member who didn't want revenge on Ray, but was forced to by Lee. The reason for Mariah's trust in Ray was her adoration for him. When Ray temporarily left the Bladebreakers team, Mariah tried to get him to re-join the White Tigers. In the Asian Tournament finals, Mariah was defeated by Ray after a vicious battle. Mariah's bit-beast is Galux. It has been rumoured that she is Lee's little sister but there is no evidence in the manga or animé to confirm this. By the way she acts towards Ray, it can be told she has a crush on him.
Mariah is a favourite of the show due to her kind and caring attitude. She tells Rick about Beyblading, and how a win does not truly count if you didn't have fun during the battle. She is a powerful blader.
By her fashion sense, you can as well tell she likes pink a lot; her clothes are pink, even her hair is hot pink. Mariah has a playful attitude and supports the "girl-power" idea, if you don't agree, she can get very aggressive. She gets along very well with the other girls (excluding Julia at points, since they're so much alike), mostly Mathilda. In the conclusion of the manga her and Rei are a married couple and have a daughter named Rin (Ling in the English translation).
[edit] Gary (Gaou)
The monster of a beyblader from the White Tigers team. Gary has a special bond with his bit-beast Galzzly, which allows Galzzly to imitate Gary's emotion and use it for power. In the Asian tournament finals Gary ended up thrashing Max's blade and destroying the arena with it, proving Gary is one of the strongest bladers around. However, his mind tends to turn to thoughts of food, rather than the actual beybattles on more than a few occasions. Despite all of this, Gary is more of a gentle giant than he is a competitor who seeks to destroy his opponents.
He has a somewhat brotherly relationship with Kevin.
[edit] Kevin (Kiki)
A member of the White Tigers team. Kevin's style is wild and unpredictable. His bit-beast is Galman, a monkey that seems to produce more copies of itself to confuse his opponent. Kevin loses to Tyson twice, and is never able to get revenge in the finals of the Asian tournament. His special attack is the Crazy Monkey attack. When Ray left, this made Kevin so angry he attempted to kill him, failing. He's slightly selfish, and is a bit of a prankster.
He has a somewhat brotherly relationship with Gary.
[edit] All Starz
[edit] Michael Parker
Michael is the powerful team leader. This guy seriously has a big ego and thinks of himself very highly. He favourite sport is baseball and launches his beyblade in a particular baseball, the move fastball. He lost his battle against Max in the American Tournament. Michael can make friends easily due to his big personality. Some actually say that he closely resembles Tyson with the way they act, stubborn and arrogant. His bitbeast in Trygle, and eagle bit-beast that specializes in aerial attacks.
In G-Rev, his position was removed however, by Max and Rick.
[edit] Eddy
Eddy is the basketball player of the team. He is first seen in the episode 'It's all relative' when Tyson and company meet him and Steve when they set the alarm off while searching the PPB research facility. Eddy's bitbeast, Trypio takes the form of a scorpion and is very fast and skillful. All in all, Eddy is very laid back and only rises to protect his team if they are being trash talked in anyway. Eddy also lost his bitbeast to Kai when Kai had Black Dranzer but managed to get it back along with his team's when Tyson beat Tala in the World Championship Battle.
[edit] Emily York
Emily is the pure brains behind this team. Matching the brainy traits of Judy, they work mostly as a team to help the All Starz to victory in battles. Emily though is very offensive to others and hates team work as she prefers to work alone to win. Emily's bitbeast, Trygator takes the form of a Alligator with enormous strength. Though, she hardly ever uses her blade or beyblading skills when ever she is on the team.
[edit] Steven
Steve first appears in 'It's all relative' beside Eddy when the Bladebreakers were caught looking around the PPB research facility. Steve is very arrogant and loves to gloat that they were the better team. Also, proving he has a fiery temper when things don't go his way or when he loses a beybattle. His bitbeast, Tryhorn takes the form of a bull which is just as powerful and temperamental as Steve is.
He disappeared completely in Season 3.
[edit] Rick Anderson
Rick was recruited by Judy in Beyblade G-Revolution to represent the All Starz instead of choosing other bladers from the original team. Rick is considered as a powerhouse; in G-Revolution, when he faces Daichi. Max says Rick's power comes from his strong sense of judging right and wrong. At first, he sees no fun in the game and only seeks to win. He also doesn't believe that teamwork is necessary in Beyblading. However, he later realizes that it's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play that matters. Rick is usually seen with his stereo, which helps motivate him in battle. His bit-beast is Rock Bison. In the manga, he lives on a farm and has an encounter with Daichi in the "Bakuten Shoot: Beyblade Daichi" side story.
[edit] Dark Bladers
[edit] Cenotaph (Cairo)
The mummy looking member of the team. Cenotaph was defeated by Enrique, of the Majestics. Cenotaph's bit-beast is Sarcophalon, a mummy that can kill. He was the first of the Dark Bladers to come in contact with the Bladebreakers, and the one that scares Kenny the most.
[edit] Lupinex (Howling)
The were-wolf of the team. Lupinex was defeated by Johnny. Ironically, he has a hot temper like Johnny does. His bit-beast is a werewolf known as Wolfstorm. Lupinex is Sanguinex's little brother.
[edit] Sanguinex (Blot)
The vampire of the team. Sanguinex was defeated by Robert, and is the 'leader' of the team. His bit-beast is Drac-Attack, a vampire. He is the older brother of Lupinex.
[edit] Zomb
The Frankenstein/zombie looking member of the Dark Bladers team. Zomb was defeated by Oliver of the Majestics. Zomb's bit-beast is a zombie-like creature named Shamblor.
[edit] Majestics
[edit] Robert Jurgen (Ralf Jurgen)
| Robert Jurgen | |
| Japanese name | Ralf Jurgen |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Griffolyon |
| Attacks | Wing Dagger |
Robert is the leader of the Majestics. Robert is one of the most skilled beybladers in the World, and the best in Germany. When Tyson first battled Robert, Robert crushed Tyson within one minute. Robert's bit-beast is Griffolyon. In the manga, Robert's Griffolyon beyblade is a "Hidden Spirits" model that transforms into his beyblade like the Takara/Hasbro version.
His special attack is Wing Dagger. Robert's bitbeast is rumoured to be set in armour, which makes it very hard for another beyblader to defeat. His bitbeast is also very large in size. Robert first meets and defeats Tyson on a cruise ship, after defeating a mass amount of amateur Beybladers first.
He despises anything 'uncouth', and is very upity. Robert is the decendant of a lon rein of knights and is proud of his hertitage. His family own a huge castle in the middle of Germany, surrounded by acres of forests. He believes that team work is unnessecary and only for the weak. He realises that you have to be strong to work as a team when theMajestics are defeated by the Bladebreakers because Robert doesn't know how to work with others. Until he is defeated by Tyson, Robert believes that once you defeat an enemy in a Beyblade match, they are trash and no longer exist, and henceforth a rematch is impossible.
[edit] Johnny McGregor
| Johnny McGregor | |
| Japanese name | Johnny |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Salamalyon |
The all sarcastic Johnny is the second strongest of the Majestics. He is a true Scots man. When it comes to joking around, he'll probably shoot you down with a sarcastic comment. He takes no prisoners in battle both in and out the beystadium. Although he acts like a big tough guy, he has a golden heart, as proven in "A Lesson For Tyson"...he also has a very short temper. His bit-beast is Salamalyon. He is from Scotland and plays Tennis and Golf as a side sport to beyblading. He CANNOT play chess...losing 7 times in a row to Robert.
Johnny is also a decendant of knights, and like the rest of the Majestics, is very proud. He is supposedly known as "The Gladiator of Glasgow" due to his phenominom Beyblading skills. He loses to Kai during the Majestics vs. The Bladebreakers battle because Kai is given advice (much to his displeasure) by his team mates, while Johnny lacks advice because he only knows how to work as an individual.
He was the last of the Majestics to be introduced. Kai was his Bladebreaker rival. Makes a cameo appearance in the third season of Beyblade when he discovers that Barthez Battalion were cheating. He informs Tyson of this, but tells him that it is too late to report them, because if they were disqualified it would unbalance the entire championships too late in the game.
[edit] Enrique Giancarlo (Giancarlo Tornatore)
| Enrique Giancarlo | |
| Japanese name | Giancarlo Tornatore |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Amphilyon |
The playful Enrique is one of the strongest members of this team. Enrique appears to be a bored rich Italien kid, who prefers to spend his time with his many girlfriends. Enrique is the member who loves to kid around, and look for ladies to hang out with. Enrique is the champion of Rome. His bit-beast is one of the largest, Amphilyon, and is also incredibly powerful, but weak at high altitudes. Although Enrique is a skilled Beyblader, he prefers to spend time around girls and take them shopping, as well as playing numerous pranks on people.
He comes from a long line of gladiators, and is seen Beyblading is his family armour. His bitbeast is a huge two headed lizard-like dragon, and although it is very powerful, Enrique lacks control over it. Enrique is seen as being very unfair towards his bitbeast, often mistreating it, and when Amphilyon turns on Enrique and attempts to attack him, he is saved by Tyson and his Dragoon.
He is often seen with Oliver, and it is believed the two are best friends, dispite their differences.
[edit] Oliver Polanski (Olivier Boringer)
| Oliver Polanski | |
| Japanese name | Olivier Boringer |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Unicolyon |
Oliver is the first member of the Majestics that the Bladebreakers meet, in the Eiffel Tower. The second member seen of the Majestics team. Oliver's beyblading style includes very graceful and beautiful movements and attacks, representing an artsy nature. Oliver is the national champion of France. Oliver is not only an amazing Beyblader, but he is also the son of a French millionaire, and an amazing French chef. Oliver is a huge art fan, and often paints himself. He sometimes spends his whole days at the Louvre museum, which he has closed just for himself.
He defeats Tyson only to point out his weaknesses so that Tyson can learn from them. He also gives Tyson advice before his Beyblattle against the Demolition Boys. He is supposed to be the nicest and more friendliest member of the Majestics team, and even prefers a buffet for Tyson which he made himself. Oliver is overall good mannered, polite and graceful, and is very well known in Paris.
His bitbeast is Unicolyn, and takes on the form of a unicorn. Oliver is not shown in the third season.
[edit] Demolition/Blitzkreig Boys/Team Neoborg
[edit] Boris Balkov (Borcloff)
| Boris Blakov | |
| Japanese name | Borcloff |
|---|---|
| Age | 40-50 |
Boris is nothing short of a two-faced, cunning, and vile man with a lust for power and money. Despite the fact that he is an abbot running an abbey (a monastery or church), his acts are anything but religious and good-natured. Boris seems to be quite the opposite of the priest he poses as, mocking the crosses on the towers of the abbey with every vicious thing he does. He has little compassion for failure and will not think twice about disposing of any boy in the abbey who does not live up to his standards. He is strict not only with the children but with the employees as well-- the scientists in the laboratories and the gunmen who guard the property-- but he does, however, show small shreds of patience with the stronger and more reliable young men that he favors, such as Tala and Kai. Boris can also be described as something of a "control freak," as he has cameras located in every room and corridor of the abbey. The fact of this raises many questions about deeper parts of his person, but to keep this page clean they will not be discussed. Boris makes it a point to intimidate others. Through intimidation, he can exact power over those being intimidated, and this is most often how he wins in any situation he faces. Every young man at the abbey, as well as all the employees, respect Boris out of fear, all with good reason. He is indeed malicious in intent and lies a great deal, but he makes it work for him.
[edit] Tala Valkov (Yuriy Ivanov)
| Tala Valkov | |
| Japanese name | Yuriy Ivanov |
|---|---|
| Birthdate | 1986 |
| Hair color | Red |
| Eye color | Blue |
| Bit-beast | Wolborg |
| Attacks | Blizzarog, Novae Rog |
The leader of the Demolition Boys (Blitzkrieg and Neoborg as well). His bit-beast is Wolborg. During the first season, after Bryan's loss to Ray, Tala was turned cybernetic (only in the dub - in the original, he was only biologically-enhanced) by Boris to increase his battling ability. Still, Tala lost to Tyson and was "freed" from his cybernetic mind, thus getting his emotions back. It has been said he has an intense dislike of Kai, this is because he appears to be jelous of how Kai can walk in and become the new 'favourite' or Boris'. Kai also mocks the, enraging Tala further still. But this does not appear to be the case in the third season, G-Revolution, where a friendship is shown at the end as they both are shown smiling at one another. Originally, they tamed up just to use each other, but after both being injured indirectly by Boris, they realise the hardship they shared. Even though he can act the big, tough, emotion-less guy, deep down he has the soul of a true beyblader, and a very intense spite for Boris (which tends to make him the more "emotional" one of the group). When BEGA was started up, Tala risked his own life to take down Garland and eventually, BEGA. He paid by intense injuries and being put into a coma for awhile at the hospital where he was watched over by Mr. Dickenson. Tala is a natural born leader with a firey personality. In the manga he will do anything to win and he is less loyal to Boris. However in the anime he works to impress Boris with his skills and becomes jealous when Kai joins the team. Towards the end of the third season of Beyblade, Tala is shown as being generally a lot nicer than before. After Kai's battle with Brooklyn in the Japanese version, Kai is so hurt that he collapses in the corridor and dies (later brought back to life by Dranzer) and Tala is seen shedding a tear for kai whilst in his coma, suggesting that there is a bond between them.
[edit] Bryan Kuznetsov
| Bryan Kuznetsov | |
| Japanese name | Boris Kuznetsov |
|---|---|
| Birthdate | 1988 |
| Zodiac sign | Sagittarius |
| Bit-beast | Falborg |
| Attacks | Stroblitz |
At first, Bryan appears to be calm, collected, and passive. He never speaks much, only when he has to, but deep inside he has an inflamed hatred which has been burning ever since he was young. Bryan is not one people would want to cross paths with. He comes off as indifferent, then strikes with quick and merciless blows that render opponents weak and defenseless, and most often kill them. He is very loyal to his superior, Boris, never questioning orders or thinking twice about them. He does as he is told, and he does it well. He's always first choice when the team needs to annihilate the opponent while terrifying spectators beyond rational thought. Although his attacks come quickly, they are painful and done in such a way that it prolongs death and suffering. To be brief on the matter, Bryan was raised to be a hateful, violent, and murderous being. In G-Revolution, he calms down quite a bit and is more social than he was in the first season (but not that much).
[edit] Ian Papov
| Ian Papov | |
| Japanese name | Ivan |
|---|---|
Ian is a cunning little mischief-maker who would enjoy nothing more than blowing someone apart. One phrase that comes to mind when describing Ian is "trigger-happy," and indeed he is. It is rare to see Ian without his rifle; he carries it everywhere with him despite the fact that it is nearly larger than he is. He does a lot of the dirty work, emerging first and taking opponents by surprise while the rest of his team comes in after and finishes things off. Being younger than the others, he tends to have more energy, but is quite skilled for his age. He most often combines forces with Tala, taking orders from him and carrying them out, and he is very obedient to the team coach and trainer Boris.
[edit] Spencer Petrov
| Spencer Petrov | |
| Japanese name | Sergei Petrov |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Seaborg |
| Attacks | Voda Impact, Stramolyu |
Spencer is a tall young man with a muscular build who looks as though he could (and would) crush your bones with one hand, but this is completely the opposite of what Spencer's true nature is. Although tough when he needs to be, Spencer is not outlandishly rash, as is Tala, and is not completely vicious and vile, as is Bryan. He merely does things simply because he is told to do so and is led to believe they are things which are good. Inside, Spencer is insecure and seeking to do what he can for others. A prime example of Spencer's true nature comes with his defeat of Kai. He promptly walks to Boris, his superior, and exclaims: "Sir, I won!" with a smile on his face. In this way, Spencer seems to be like a child looking to please a hopeful adult, and although Boris is unsatisfied with the performance, Spencer remains upbeat and hopeful that he will make an improvement. To combat any feelings of insecurity, Spencer has attached himself to people and ideas that bring comfort to him. Boris is one of things, mainly because he has been a large part of Spencer's life and upbringing. Had Spencer any family to speak of, he would have become strongly attached to them, and so on. He also tends to remain close to Bryan, as he is usually seen standing beside him, and although this may confuse some people because Bryan is most generally a violent person, it helps to explain Spencer's strong need to feel as though he belongs. In several ways it is both fortunate and unfortunate that he survived long enough to become part of the Russian team.
[edit] Team Psykick
[edit] Gideon
The leader and instructor of Team Psykick. He dies while the Psykick building collapses on him, after the match between Kane and Tyson. He had thought of the plan to capture bit-beast with bit-beast, after other plans had failed and other Team Psykicks members. They finally settled as: Kane, Goki, Salima and Jim.
[edit] Kane Yamashita
This Beyblader is quite cunning and is a born leader. Kane was a fierce competitor, and rivaled even Tyson's prowess. Now working together with Cyber Dragoon, even Tyson will be hard pressed to come out on top. The more this Blader fights along side his Digital Bit Beast, the more the two grow in strength and power. In the manga, Kane was a genius with an IQ of 200 who was in alliance with Dr. Zagart. He made his debut appearance when he destroyed all the Saint Shield's beyblades as punishment for not getting the Holy Beast from Tyson's team.
[edit] Gouki
Gouki is one brute of a Beyblader. He is not known for his intelligence, but with Jim doing the thinking for him, it usually doesn't matter. He is one of the strongest Beybladers ever to compete. This natural strength is the only thing that can control the powerful Cyber Dranzer. He uses his strength to his full advantage whenever possible.
[edit] Salima
Salima was originally against the idea of using digital copies of the Bladebreakers Bit Beasts. She tried to convince the rest of her team that using them was a bad idea. Gideon saw her going against the idea of using the cyber bit-beast so he used her to battle against Kane to get control of them. She used Cyber Driger in battle. She appears to love Kane but has also shown signs of liking Ray a little as well.
[edit] Jim
This cunning tactician is quite skilled at analyzing opponents weaknesses and using them to his advantage. Jim was the first Psykick that acquired a Cyber Bit Beast. He then convinced his teammates to switch over to this new technology. Combining his analytical mind with Goki's brute strength, the pair make a dangerous combination, both in and out of the Beystadium. His Cyber beast is Cyber Draciel.
[edit] Saint Shields
[edit] Ozuma (Ozma)
This leader of the Saint Shields is a force to be reckoned with. His Beyblading skills are quite surprising, and he has a knack for pulling a few tricks out of his sleeve that keep Tyson on his toes. Ozuma's cunning tactics and masterful use of his Beyblade lead him to defeat Tyson in their first battle. His bit-beast is Flash Leopard. There has been some suspicion that the Saint Shield's nationality are Indian due to their clothes. Some think them to be African due to their names (Ozuma, Joseph, Dunga, etc). In the manga, he owns a Flash Leopord during his first encounter with Tyson and a Flash Leopard II during the second.
[edit] Dunga
Dunga is a giant of the Saint Shields. His strength is rivaled only by his temper. When he competes, he unleashes his fury on his unsuspecting opponents. His brute force often secures the victory for this beast of a Beyblader, but his fierce emotions sometimes cloud his judgment leading to unnecessary losses. His bit-beast is Vortex Ape.
[edit] Joseph (Jusuf)
A 14 year old voodookid Joseph is Mariam's younger brother and is quite stealthy. He's prowess in sneaking into and out of enemies hideouts usually puts him on the front lines. His ability to use shadows and darkness to his advantage make him extremely difficult to track. This agile Blader's key advantage is his lightning quick reaction times. The hit and run tactics he uses leaves his opponents wondering what hit them. However, he was mercilessly defeated by king and Queen-the notorious Parts Hunters. His bit-beast is Vanishing Moot.
[edit] Mariam
This Blader is a wild spirit, with an even wilder sense of humor. Her sarcasm often gets under Dunga's skin, so she rarely lets an opportunity to give him a jab slip by. She is unpredictable, and often leaves her opponents baffled from her unique moves. Her ability to confuse her opponents leaves them vulnerable for attack. She often teams up with her brother Joseph to take on their more difficult opponents. Together, they are a formidable pair. Her bit-beast is Sharkrash.
[edit] King & Queen
[edit] King
King is a mysterious parts hunter and is well known amongst the Beyblade crowd. His skill with a Beyblade has allowed him to battle unsuspecting beybladers, and steal valuable parts from them after he wins. This has given him the advantage by having the best parts available to him in any given situation. Stealing parts has given King and his twin Queen a notoriety that is almost legendary, and it is because of this that Doctor K hires them to help her capture the four Sacred Bit Beasts. His bit-beast is Ariel.
[edit] Queen
Like her partner (and twin) King, Queen is a notorious Beyblade Parts Hunter. She has been Beyblading along side King for years now, and together they have been unstoppable. With loads of parts stolen from Beybladers around the world, Queen's Beyblade is never left in the dust, until her blade was crumbled to shreds, during her match against Max. Her bit-beast is Gabriel.
[edit] Barthez Battalion
[edit] Coach Barthez
The coach of the Barthez Battalion. He's an abusive coach, who is only interested in showing off his Beybladers. He uses whatever method it takes to make them, and ultimately him, look good. His team in the Japanese version is called the Barthez Soldiers. He is Boris' agent. Using cheats and tricks, Barthez gets his team entered in high level competitions. But later awaking his true instinct, Miguel and his team begin to stand up to Coach Barthez, ending with them firing him as their coach.
[edit] Miguel Lavalier (Mihael)
Miguel is recognized as the team leader, but is still bossed around by Barthez. Like the rest of the team, he was trained to Beyblade by Barthez and also got his blade from him. His bit-beast is Dark Gargoyle.
Tyson was able to teach Miguel a valuable lessen when he battled him in the World Championships about playing the game fairly.
[edit] Mathilda
The unofficial little sister of their team. Though Mathilda questioned Coach Barthez, she still followed his orders due to fear. She fears Barthez the most out of her team mates. However she started thinking on her own after Miguel and the others started standing up to Barthez. Even going as far as firing him. Her bitbeast is Pierce Hedgehog.
[edit] Aaron
Aaron usually doesn't question Barthez's orders, regardless of the consequences, as he isn't the type of person to stand up for himself. His bit-beast is Rushing Boar and his special attack is Spin Charge.
[edit] Claude
Claude, like Miguel, was trained to Beyblade by Barthez himself. Miguel is usually the one to encourage him, as long as coach Barthez doesn't have any "suggestions". His bit-beast is Rapid Eagle.
[edit] F-Dynasty
[edit] Julia Fernandez
Raul and Julia are twins. However, Julia is dubbed the "older" sister as she was born minutes earlier, and she usually bosses around her brother. She's also less shy than her brother. Trained by Romero from a young age, Julia and Raul's incredible teamwork is reflected on their beyblading skills. In performances, Julia is usually the centre of the spotlight. Their skill with a beyblade is a beautiful thing to behold. Julia's bitbeast is Thunder Pegasus.
[edit] Raul Fernandez
Like his twin, Julia, Raul was raised by a circus troupe called Romero. Because of this background, Julia and Raul have an amazing ability to work together. However, since their moves mirror each other, they can be pretty predictable when battling alone. Being minutes younger than Julia, Raul is usually being bossed around. Wanting to prove himself, Raul proposed to fight alone against the Barthez Battalions. Julia, opposing at first, later agreed. Raul's bitbeast is Torch Pegasus. The original name of the team is F Sangre.
[edit] BEGA League
[edit] Brooklyn
| Brooklyn | |
| Japanese name | Brooklyn |
|---|---|
| Bit-beast | Zeus |
| Attacks | King of Darkness |
Brooklyn has never been known to practice Beyblading in his whole life, as if he was born knowing how to beyblade so well. Because he is so gifted in Beyblading, he often makes sarcastic remarks to his oppenents in a Beyblade match, often asking for them to try harder to make it more interesting for him. He's only ever lost to Kai and his battle with Tyson resulted in a (suspected) draw. He usually waits the battle out, as he's almost unbeatable. However, he has an extremely powerful attack if it is necessary. His bit-beast is the all powerful King, Zeus. His power is so immense that it harms Kai and puts him in a lost state when they first battle. Brooklyn's special attack is King of Darkness. After Kai defeats him, Brooklyn turns a little insane because he has never been defeated in his whole life, and is totally unaware of what it is to lose. He vows to get revenge on Tyson for what Kai did, and during his battle with Tyson, Brooklyn some how manages to grow wings like his bitbeast and he manages create a wormhole in the sky which sucks everyone into his mind. It is only after Tyson explains to Brooklyn what the true meaning of the Beyblade is, that Brooklyn calms down and the chaos ends. It is never revealed who won that match in the series.
[edit] Crusher (Moses)
Even though Crusher only started to Beyblade later in his life than your average blader, he was quickly trained by BEGA. Crusher is large in statue, and has strange markings that look similar to scars on his face. Although Crusher can seem intimidating, he is actually a nice person, and this is proven when he tells Boris that he doesn't want to cheat by destroying Tyson's Beyblade before his match with Tyson so that Tyson has to forfeit and BEGA will win. He is soft at heart, and this is proven when his ill sister gives him a doll she made of him, and Crusher cries saying that he will win his Beyblade match against Ray for her. Although Crusher does defeat Ray, he believes that Ray should have won and hugs Ray at the end of the battle asking for a rematch later on. His reason for being a Pro Blader is to earn enough money to help his little sister, Monica, get the medical attention she needs. His bit-beast is Gigars.
[edit] Garland Siebald
Everyone in Garland's family is a professional athlete, and he decides to continue the tradition in Beyblading to prove himself just as has been done by his siblings. He joins BEGA with the hope that it can make him just as famous as his siblings. Garland is shown to have great power, as he defeats Bryan and Spencer both at once with ease. During his Beybattle match against Tala, he injures Tala so badly that Tala falls into a coma and is admitted to hospital. Garland loses his match against Tyson however, and then gives Tyson advice to watch out for Brooklyn because of his powerful mind. Garland's family have laid their hands on a book called Thebesian Principles of Victory. The one who knows these cannot lose! Garland usually endures his opponent's attacks before making a single powerful attack. His bit-beast is Apollon.
[edit] Ming-Ming
Ming-Ming is BEGA's mascot, and is both a pop star and a great Beyblader. She even combines singing and blading to help her concentration and distract her opponents. Her bit-beast is Venus. Some of her moments hint that she may have split personalities. During her matches, Ming-Ming has an uncanny ability to "transform" into an older, more intense version of herself (Known as Queen Version in the Japanese series). In her Queen form, she appears to age and grow taller; her eyes and hair are slightly different. She returns to her normal, young (Loli Version in the Japanese series) form when the match is done.
[edit] Mystel
Mystel appeared out of seemingly nowhere and is able to practically fly up mountains. His attacks are fast and unpredictable and can come from anywhere. His bit-beast is Poseidon. He is very qualified for the BEGA League. He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.
[edit] Others
[edit] Alan
An old friend of Max Mizuhara, and a hired kid used to steal a powerful piece of rock. He was double crossed, and wasn't able to use the power extracted from the rock.His blade was called Impulse.
[edit] Brad Best & A.J. Topper
The official Beyblade announcers for all BBA tournaments. Like Dizzi, their voices were created by the American version of the anime. They do not exist in the original Japanese version.
[edit] D.J. Jazzman (Blader D.J.)
The BBA official referee and in the original, announcer/commentator. He is voiced by the actual Blader D.J., who referees beyblade tournaments in Japan.
[edit] Dr. B
The co-leader of team Psykick. He develops the beyblades that the Psykick team uses, and recruits new members. He dies with Gideon while the Psykick building collapses, by electrocution.
[edit] Dr. K
The beautiful scientist that works for Dr. Zagart. She was then fired by her head-Dr. Zagart before the World Championships, for disloyalty in handing over the extracted bit-beasts from the rock. Some fans say though that she is Ray Kon's mother, but many disagree
[edit] Dr. Zagart
Zeo's father and the owner of Psykick. He is trying to steal the 4 Bladebreakers sacred beasts to revive Zeo into a real boy.
[edit] Gordo
This Blader was hand picked by Zagart to be the perfect teammate for Zeo. His Beyblading skills are more than a match for the Bladebreakers. With the power of a Rock Bit Beast at his disposal, this competitor will be causing quite the stir in the World Championships. His bit-beast is Orthrus. Orthrus's most useful attack is the Twine Spire attach which freezes the opposing bit-beast leaving it vulnerable to any attack. His name means "fat" in Spanish. Zeo was actually a robot; a replacement for Dr. Zagart's son, who died tragically. If Zeo can get all bit-beasts, he can become a human again. So, he traps all bit-beasts he battles with, till he faces Tyson!
[edit] Judy Mizuhara
A researcher and scientist of the BBA. Also Max's mother, she does beyblade research at an American BBA facility. She has put together the All Starz.
[edit] Marcos & Sanchez
These two were only seen in Beyblade V-Force, and only in one episode. They faced Kai and Ray in the quarter-finals and they tried to use their "musical ability" to distract and annoy their opponents. However, they did not have any success. They were only created for the purpose of filling up the eighth available position in the quarter-finals.
[edit] Stanley A. Dickenson (Master Chairman Daijubou)
The head of the BBA. He is the most important man in the sport. In V-Force/2002 it was revealed that he and Dr. Zagart were Beyblade research partners. He is also the one who forms (and later renames) the bladebreakers.
[edit] Voltaire (Wolter)
He's Kai's grandfather, and BIOVOLT's director. He wants to have the best bladers in the world, which is where the Demolition Boys come into play. We aren't sure what happens to him after Tyson and Tala's match although most believe he was put into jail.
[edit] Wyatt (Yuuya)
A huge fan of Kai's from his school. He was later used by Gideon's scientists to test Cyber Dranzer. However, his body was unable to withstand the power of Cyber Dranzer on a fight against Dunga. In the original Japanese version, he died after this fight, but in the American version they do not tell anything, believing that a death was "too heavy" for children who should watch the anime.
[edit] Zeo
This robotic replicant of Zagart's son (who died when hit by a truck while playing his violin). He is as developed strong Beyblading skills through vigorous training methods and a strong desire to be the best. Zeo temporarily joins the Bladebreakers after helping Tyson out of a jam. When his father reveals his true identity, he throws his Beyblading morals away in the hopes of defeating Tyson and his friends and becoming a real boy. His bit-beast is Cerberus.
In the Manga, Zeo was actually a boy named Leon, Zeo's younger brother, who was tricked to thinking that he was Zeo. The real Zeo was hit by a truck and killed shortly thereafter, Zagart was saddened and wanted to use the power of the sacred beasts to revive Zeo, though it didn't work out. After Leon's and Tyson's match in the manga, he goes off to live his true life with his father. In the anime his blade (before Cerberus) was called Xeronix (pronounced zeronix)
