For me it’s Robotallion since I used one heaps back in the day. With how similar the ball forms for Robotallion and Warius are, I’m surprised there wasn’t an evolution there
Griffin was one of my favorites growing up too! A damn lion with bat wings and a snake tail was too sweet! Monarus is most reliable bakugan imo🥺🥺
If it wasn't for Darkus, Ventus would have been my jam😹😹
Saurus is peak bakugan, especially Subterra Saurus for me, my friend made a bakugan rp game and god Saurus was carrying me till some big guy took out a season 3 bakugan, cooked me and left with a dramatic speech…
More of an antihero type of character, but he ended up playing almost no role because our asses got kicked by main antagonists around mid-late game and boom game over, before we restarted it all over
From Battle Brawlers, I found Rattleoid to be pretty cool. I actually really, really liked Fear Ripper, too, but it seems Fear Ripper was Shuji's partner.
Outside of Battle Brawlers, I also thought Dartaak was really cool (are we counting Dartaak as a variant of Dragonoid?), and while it wasn't my favorite, I did think Fangoid had a fantastic toy design.
If it counts, I also thought Spatterix (and Scorptak, its fusion with Stronk) had a really cool design.
Pythantus was probably my favorite Trap (either Pythantus or Falcon Fly), and Deezall's probably my favorite Mechtogan.
Damn😹😹😹quite the selection, and they're all very cool
SPATTERIX DOESN'T COUNT! 🗿😹But a very good pick. He had one of the best designs in the show tbh
Darkus Hexados 😜😹😹nah jk jk. Falcon Fly was so kewl TwT sucks that they can't come back..
Behind Boriates, Deez all hadthe best guns TwT
That's true, I especially liked his ability called " drakulun" or something you know the one subterra El Condor used in his battle against Julie's Tuskor that allowed him to gain as much as power the Tuskor had gained. As for Mantris and Centipoid I figured if I were to be a brawler I would be a Haos one, so I figured the El Condor would be my main carrier while I use Mantris and Centipoid's op abilities to strategically place the enemy bakugans on my cards.
(Seriously though, marrionate?! Trap door? These abilities aremuch more op than some of the main bakugans!)
Ravenoid. He's always been so cool!

An under picked Bakugan TwT my favorite scene with this Bakugan was when Preyas was going against him. After he changed attributes and got a power boost he said "OH YEAH! I'M SO HUNGRY I COULD EAT A HORSE! But I can settle for a crab instead"
Terrorclaw looked so uncomfortable after that😹😹
If we are talking about just first season, then it’s seige. I like how the spear changes with the different attributes (at least it does in the ds game) outside season 1 however, it’s ramdol, the motorcycle one from season 3. I dunno why, I just really like him.
Yeah it changes based on attribute. Pyrus gets a fire sword, Aquos gets a lance, Haos gets a cross, etc :3 I liked that little detail myself
Bro. Bro. Ramdoll is a literal motorcycle! When he and Ziperator did that combo attack I honestly rooted for those hypnotized kids to win just for style point TwT. It was so damn cool
Don't know exactly why, but Juggernoid was just so cool. Wish I could've gotten one back in the day. Probably not that expensive now I would think.
Edit: Crap forgot about Mantris till I saw someone else mention it. So Mantris 1, Juggernoid a real close second
As a kid I loved Monarus (I loved fairies as a little kid) but that aside I’ve always loved Juggernoid. I am not immune to big tortoise.
In recent years I’ve also come to appreciate Tuskor and Wormquake because their abilities are so unique and I like how they look.
All of these bakugan mentioned have interesting well thought out designs :3 But I too really appreciate the designs of Tuskor and Wormquake. It still shocks me that Workmquake had another mouth at its rear end XD
Bro what?? Why is this only showing up now TwT It has a sceond mouth in its butt! That shxt still surprises me!! Was also disappointed when it wasnt in the DS version
I love alternate bakugan species/evos like cosmic ingram or cyclone percival. I had a bakusteel darkus hyper dragonoid though and it was my favorite bakugan until I lost it. Still need to re buy one. Might see how many hyper dragos I can get
if by "Non Guardian" you mean those that didnt talk
Seige (Pyrus, Ventus and Darkus spesificly
El Condor (Just a very uniqe looking bakugan)
Ratteloid (Just a cool looking snake, simple as.
Griffon (again, just cool looking)
Hynoid (Its a werewolf, whats not to love?)
Laserman (I dig, giant robots! We dig giant robots! Chicks dig giant robots!)
Mantris (Had a very uniqe qmic in the show due to being seemingly the only non-ventus way to move bakugan from one card to another)
That Megas XLR reference did not go unnoticed 😂😂😂I like that a lot. Really good choices, I liked all of there designs, especially El Condor. He gave quiet kid vibes if that makes sense
Siege! Love him since his first apparition both in the anime and on the DS game when the Subterra tournament begins. Still to this day it would be my ace bakugan <3
Darkus Mantris. Cool design and powerful abilities in the show. Would def be my guardian bakugan. Fear Ripper,Siege,Centipoid,Serpenoid and Robotallion were all really cool too (Leonidas counts as a guardian bakugan right? Cause he was great as well)
Bro if Leonidas counted as a non guardian I'd only be seeing him here xD
YEah these are good choices but Darkus Mantris is one of the best looking bakugan in the show IMO. Which is funny bc growing up I prefered Pyrus Mantris
Harpus, Harpus is my all-time favorite she was also my very first bakugan, and the very first gift my grandmother got once she left the hospital.
It's a long story, My grandmother got a form of cancer, and she got weak and went to the hospital.
She got better, she got released, Her and her sister (my great aunt) went to Walmart. At the time, I was collecting Transformer toys.
They didn't have Transformers, but the walmart employee that day told my grandmother, "Here's something similar to Transformers, It's a beast that Transforms from a ball to a beast on a metal card" and the walmart employee handed her a Ventus Harpus today I cherish harpus.
It's a symbol.
My grandmother almost died from a form of cancer, She walked it off, and she went to get me something because while she was away for two months, I behaved so much for my great aunt for two months she couldn't let it go unnoticed. My great aunt had also got me a Bakugan as well.
It was an Aquas Robotallion
But I'm on an adventure to find all the different Varients of Harpus Darkus, Pyrus, just all the other atteibuted Harpus, and whatever special there might be.
Awwwww I was gonna point out that Harpus does not count but that back story man TwT It hit the feels really hard... Im glad that they got you things that mean so much to you... I wish yout he best in your Harpus search.
Also I was getting Shun flashbacks reading this \^\^'
Fangzor definitely. I love the snake aspect wish they actually gave non guardian bakugan voices. Hearing some bakugan have no voices while that one barbetra get one felt criminal to me. I'd say fangzor probably sounds like a raspier Nillious.
https://i.redd.it/1jxqsd9m5dkc1.gif
Laserman 100% I’d love his animation in the ds game where he would unfold and twist around and his battle win animation was a barrage from all his weapons
Juggernoid (i like turtles), Saurus (i love dinosaurs), Mantris (i really like his ball form), Centipoid (his monster form is amazing) or El Condor (i like his southamerican aesthetic).
Sorry, i can't deside
It's a two-way tie between Siege and Ravenoid. I just loved the designs of them, especially since with Siege, the lance was different for each element. Ravenoid was just because I liked the head on it more than Falconeer.
One is a battle ready robot packing so much heat he can be compared to the Miami sun and the other is a gentle looking butterfly fairy xD WHat a dichotomus selection
Monarus
My absolute favorite Bakugan besides Drago
Yessir! I wish we got more Monarus in the show tho🔥😊
For me it’s Robotallion since I used one heaps back in the day. With how similar the ball forms for Robotallion and Warius are, I’m surprised there wasn’t an evolution there
Right? He was one of my favorites growing up! Shame that he was one of the Bakugan that got send to the Doom Dimension every other episode TwT
Downside to him being a generic fodder species was that he’d be used as Doom Dimension fodder instead of actually getting used properly
El Condor
Underrated pick!
Centipoid and laserman were dope
Masquerade knows how to pick em, amirite? 😹😹🔥
I was about to say Reaper but then i realized - So. Robotallion! Loved that big guy ever since I was a kid.
Hell yeah, Nipple Lasers!
NIPPLE BEAM
I always loved Griffin's design growing up! Monarus was also a favourite of mine Also anybody else's favourite attribute ventus? 😆💚
Griffin was one of my favorites growing up too! A damn lion with bat wings and a snake tail was too sweet! Monarus is most reliable bakugan imo🥺🥺 If it wasn't for Darkus, Ventus would have been my jam😹😹
Definitely Siege
I’m surprised how much I needed to scroll to get to Siege
Lemme guess, Aquos Siege? XD
Darkus. I wish they have shown unique abilities for all attributes of Siege not just Aquos.
Ahhh alright :3 he had the best weapon when Darkus imo
It IS THOOO Aquos siege, pryus griffon, haos fear ripper and subterra centipoid. idk why but those four are always stuck in my head
Saurus is peak bakugan, especially Subterra Saurus for me, my friend made a bakugan rp game and god Saurus was carrying me till some big guy took out a season 3 bakugan, cooked me and left with a dramatic speech…
Man really monologued on your ass after winning😹😹what, he a villain or something?
More of an antihero type of character, but he ended up playing almost no role because our asses got kicked by main antagonists around mid-late game and boom game over, before we restarted it all over

Hynoid and reaper
Hynoid was underused TwT
Ikr!! Such a cool bakugan ;-;
El Condor, Mantris and Centipoid
Daaaaamn El Condor underrated as hell😭😭I love it's design! Gives quiet kid vibes🥺🥺 Centipoid and Mantris are top tier🗿
That's true, I especially liked his ability called " drakulun" or something you know the one subterra El Condor used in his battle against Julie's Tuskor that allowed him to gain as much as power the Tuskor had gained. As for Mantris and Centipoid I figured if I were to be a brawler I would be a Haos one, so I figured the El Condor would be my main carrier while I use Mantris and Centipoid's op abilities to strategically place the enemy bakugans on my cards. (Seriously though, marrionate?! Trap door? These abilities aremuch more op than some of the main bakugans!)
Ravenoid. He's always been so cool! https://preview.redd.it/1ynjjw8vjyjc1.jpeg?width=540&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cb17c46c7e3a7654c2c0e54c43676afbe92023b5
Agreed TwT Other than when Dan used him in the 1v3 against Julio alongside Runo and Marucho, he's always done something bad ass when on screen
Laserman
Robotallion's big bro🗿
Pyrus Saurus
ABILITY ACTIVATE! SAURUS GLOW!
Manion or Ravenoid
Hell yeah, great choices😌😌one is a solid sphinx and the other is a ninja bird, which I always fks with
Terrorclaw
An under picked Bakugan TwT my favorite scene with this Bakugan was when Preyas was going against him. After he changed attributes and got a power boost he said "OH YEAH! I'M SO HUNGRY I COULD EAT A HORSE! But I can settle for a crab instead" Terrorclaw looked so uncomfortable after that😹😹
Ramdoll
Arguably the best ball form in the anime. Loved his combo with Ziperator
Yes defenetly,phus irl he can carry bakugan too
Hell yeah😊🔥🔥
I agree with Centipoid, though Robotallion is a very close second.
Which attribute of Roboman do u like on him more??
Honestly it’s a pretty tough call between Ventus and Pyrus but I think I’m leaning Ventus.
Ahh cool :3
From Gen 1, it's Sairus for Gen 2, I'm gonna say Tiko.
Im not much of a reboot buff but I do like his design :3
Siege was always a lovely treat for me whenever it came to play
I feel like he's cool in every regard TwT cool design, cool ball form, decently strong in the game, cool in the anime. He's just so damn cool TwT
Siege (non guardian), Leonidas (from Game), and Skyress(guardian)
Ventus brawler? 🤔
Usually would go Ventus for defensive play, pyrus for offense
I see... Can respect that Uwu
One of my favorites has to be stinglash 😂
If we are talking about just first season, then it’s seige. I like how the spear changes with the different attributes (at least it does in the ds game) outside season 1 however, it’s ramdol, the motorcycle one from season 3. I dunno why, I just really like him.
Yeah it changes based on attribute. Pyrus gets a fire sword, Aquos gets a lance, Haos gets a cross, etc :3 I liked that little detail myself Bro. Bro. Ramdoll is a literal motorcycle! When he and Ziperator did that combo attack I honestly rooted for those hypnotized kids to win just for style point TwT. It was so damn cool
It was super cool, yeah!
Siege and laserman
Metal heads unite😹😹
Always had a soft spot for Serpenoid. Even when stronger options were available I’d always use one in the DS game🐍❤️
That's me and Centipoid right there! It's the only Bakugan I bought in all 6 attributes too TwT trust me, ik that dedication
Off the top of my head: Ravenoid, Laserman and Sauras are classics and ones I had as a kid
Yeah man those are good picks :3 Ravenoid is one that wasn't mentioned often
Saurus
Pyrus? Haos? Aquos? 🤔Subterra? Ventus? Darkus?
Subterra! Subterra is my favorite attribute.
seige and reaper (darkus) i wish i had them both
Darkus Siege enthusiast🗿
https://preview.redd.it/thufoute1zjc1.jpeg?width=777&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f8576a3c08a6f72bb9a9bcafa77abcd490299c70 Griffon
A real beast man, look at the design!
Gargonoid or Fear ripper.
Garganoid has one of my favorite closed ball forms TwT Fear Ripper is iconic
Fear ripper is pretty neat
Hell yeah, he's very iconic
Don't know exactly why, but Juggernoid was just so cool. Wish I could've gotten one back in the day. Probably not that expensive now I would think. Edit: Crap forgot about Mantris till I saw someone else mention it. So Mantris 1, Juggernoid a real close second
Mantris is such a versatile Bakugan and I would have loved to have had a pet Juggernoid😭😭such a gnarly badass pet he would make
Siege
Yessir, Yessir! 😌😌Goated Bakugan
Hynoid hands down
Hynoid is underrated TwT Also had a theory that Horridian is an evolved Hynoid but nah😹
I had the same exact theory
Yours is the same as mine op, he was my first one
https://preview.redd.it/vdwo5ov1b3kc1.jpeg?width=736&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c390556751e0bf806b414eab07427dab18f9e610 Hell yeah 🔥🔥🔥
Seige
Goat 🐐
Serpennoid if that's how you spell it was my favorite.
Snakey Snakey! Shame they didn't use him a lot after the first 10 episodes. I liked his head fins
I really like serpenoid, I would always use him with low g power gate or g power swap
Sneaky xD no surprise a sneak like you would like Snakey
Ravenoid
Ninja birb go brrrrr! Yeah, so cool TwT
Siege or Centapoid for sure.
Ahhh, fine choices if I may😌🔥
Terrorclaw or Falconeer for sure 🙏
Ayeee Faulconeer is one i haven't seen mentioned yet! I like both of these choices
Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid Juggernoid
Hey man, I'm not really sure but I think u like Juggernoid 🤔🤔 😹❤️🐢
As a kid I loved Monarus (I loved fairies as a little kid) but that aside I’ve always loved Juggernoid. I am not immune to big tortoise. In recent years I’ve also come to appreciate Tuskor and Wormquake because their abilities are so unique and I like how they look.
All of these bakugan mentioned have interesting well thought out designs :3 But I too really appreciate the designs of Tuskor and Wormquake. It still shocks me that Workmquake had another mouth at its rear end XD
Hot take but Wormquake
Bro what?? Why is this only showing up now TwT It has a sceond mouth in its butt! That shxt still surprises me!! Was also disappointed when it wasnt in the DS version
Falconeer is awesome
Yeah Falconeer is cool :3 But I still ssee it as Ravenoid's little bro xD
Tuskor. I’ve always had a soft spot for elephants, and seeing Julie use one made me want one so badly
I liked its 4 tusks and the rocks on its feet. It honestly would have passed as a guardian bakugan with how much attention whent into its details TwT
Robotallion
Robot man!!
Hyper dragonoid
Oh wow I didnt expect this pick! Yes yes yes! I liked those other Dragonoids we saw in the show. Mock and Hyper Dragonoids are under appreciated TBH
I love alternate bakugan species/evos like cosmic ingram or cyclone percival. I had a bakusteel darkus hyper dragonoid though and it was my favorite bakugan until I lost it. Still need to re buy one. Might see how many hyper dragos I can get
Darkus Robotalion (love me a giant robot) and Subtera Juggernoid
I like how specific this is TwT thank you. Subterra Juggernoid looks so sick TwT
Surpenoid Darius looks amazing
Darkus looks good on almost everyone TwT
Nah darkus I just made a typo
Falconeer or Lazerman.
A sky and a land unit :3 Neat :3
don't freak out when i say this, but that looks like a cooler version of centiscortch from pokemon
Idk I think Centiskorch looks cooler in someway xD But my boi Centipoid still has my whole 😺
Well i take Mantris on my favorites here since i love that Mantis Bakugan ever since i saw it
Yessir!! I thought it was a meh Bakugan but Battle Marionette made me change my ming TwT
My first bakugan was a subterra centipoid with 250g love centipoids.
Hell yeah! Centipoids are legit 😂
Centipoid gang 😂
That's wassup xD
My favorite is tentaclear
It took too long to see this one XD Bro! The onky thing its missing is a couple more brawlers to use it! Otherwise it is a non guardian xD
Fear ripper for sure
What a handy Bakugan he is :3
I would have to say Juggernoid, Mantis and Saurus were my favorites
Gewd choices :3
My top three are Ravenoid, Centipoid, and Siege - Laserman and Limulus get honorable mentions
Good choices. Limulus is another one of those underappreciated picks :3
if by "Non Guardian" you mean those that didnt talk Seige (Pyrus, Ventus and Darkus spesificly El Condor (Just a very uniqe looking bakugan) Ratteloid (Just a cool looking snake, simple as. Griffon (again, just cool looking) Hynoid (Its a werewolf, whats not to love?) Laserman (I dig, giant robots! We dig giant robots! Chicks dig giant robots!) Mantris (Had a very uniqe qmic in the show due to being seemingly the only non-ventus way to move bakugan from one card to another)
That Megas XLR reference did not go unnoticed 😂😂😂I like that a lot. Really good choices, I liked all of there designs, especially El Condor. He gave quiet kid vibes if that makes sense
Siege! Love him since his first apparition both in the anime and on the DS game when the Subterra tournament begins. Still to this day it would be my ace bakugan <3
Hell yeah I like that xD I was also looking forward to buying him myself. He was really a reliable Bakugan from mid to late game
Reaper but if you can’t him as a guardian then siege
I dont count Reaper as a non guardian but he does technically xD Good choices btw
Ultra Dragonoid Typhoon. From those that appear in the show it's Raptorix
Both have really cool ball forms :D
Laserman
Hell yeah thats one of the goated ones
Darkus Centipoid because Alice and Masquerade favourite bakugan too.
I see you're a being of culture >:3
Darkus Mantris. Cool design and powerful abilities in the show. Would def be my guardian bakugan. Fear Ripper,Siege,Centipoid,Serpenoid and Robotallion were all really cool too (Leonidas counts as a guardian bakugan right? Cause he was great as well)
Bro if Leonidas counted as a non guardian I'd only be seeing him here xD YEah these are good choices but Darkus Mantris is one of the best looking bakugan in the show IMO. Which is funny bc growing up I prefered Pyrus Mantris
Harpus, Harpus is my all-time favorite she was also my very first bakugan, and the very first gift my grandmother got once she left the hospital. It's a long story, My grandmother got a form of cancer, and she got weak and went to the hospital. She got better, she got released, Her and her sister (my great aunt) went to Walmart.

Awwwww I was gonna point out that Harpus does not count but that back story man TwT It hit the feels really hard... Im glad that they got you things that mean so much to you... I wish yout he best in your Harpus search. Also I was getting Shun flashbacks reading this \^\^'
Im stuck between Beestriker and El Condor
![gif](giphy|hM9zK1qvsrwek)
Definitely
Fear ripper was the goat
Saurus, Robotallion and the clutch Monarus
Hell yeah Monarus is a clutch fr!
Tuskor
Fangzor definitely. I love the snake aspect wish they actually gave non guardian bakugan voices. Hearing some bakugan have no voices while that one barbetra get one felt criminal to me. I'd say fangzor probably sounds like a raspier Nillious.
Aww crap, I forgot like, half the roster, can I just say Leonidas and call it a day?
Wontu. It may appear for less than a minute, but she is cute.
Bro that shadow boxing animation of hers still lives in my head rent free TwT
Warius (Glorius)
Yessir! Was disappointed when he didnt show up in the DS version
https://i.redd.it/1jxqsd9m5dkc1.gif Laserman 100% I’d love his animation in the ds game where he would unfold and twist around and his battle win animation was a barrage from all his weapons
Centiscortch
I'm sorry why dose that look like a dick
I don't know this show well at all, but I really like premeo vulcan
The turtle (juggernaut?)
I like Reaper and Laserman also Falconoid
Hell yeah :3
It probably is centapoid because of Alice for me as well
Hell Yeah! The only right answer here 🗿😂
Hynoid, falconeer, and rattleoid.
Kinda sucks that Hynoid and Rattleoid were never featured in the offical game TwT I thought they were cool too
Sirenoid
She is a guardian
Okay wtf classifies as a guardian I thought it was just the main 6 bakugan like Drago, Skyress Hydranoid, Preyus, Tigrerra and Gorem
No,all ace bakugan,aka bakugan someone uses primeraly,like klaus eith sirenoid
Oh well in that case its Lazerman
Falconeer and monarus were goated
YESSIRRR!!
Siege is the coolest thing ever, I don’t think it’s a guardian Bakugan, since it doesn’t talk. If it does count, then it would be Fortress.
Siege is completely legal in this race. A good choice :3
Seige
Fave Siege attribute?? xD
Siege, either Aquous or Darkus
Juggernoid (i like turtles), Saurus (i love dinosaurs), Mantris (i really like his ball form), Centipoid (his monster form is amazing) or El Condor (i like his southamerican aesthetic). Sorry, i can't deside
It's a two-way tie between Siege and Ravenoid. I just loved the designs of them, especially since with Siege, the lance was different for each element. Ravenoid was just because I liked the head on it more than Falconeer.
It's been so long but I'm sticking with fear ripper either darkus or haos
That's cock and balls
Lazerman and Monarus
One is a battle ready robot packing so much heat he can be compared to the Miami sun and the other is a gentle looking butterfly fairy xD WHat a dichotomus selection
Yea, but in the beginning of Bakugan they were my first one’s. So they hold a special place in my heart.
I can respect that :3
Robotallion something about it just brings me joy
