This is a list of Beyblade characters from the original series and its related media, as well as the Metal and Shogun Steel sagas.
Bladebreakers
The Bladebreakers are a team of Beybladers. The team includes Tyson Granger, Kai Hiwatari, Max Tate, Ray Kon and Kenny, though Kenny does not blade for the team until G-Revolution, where the team undergoes two new names, the BBA Revolution, and later G-Revolutions.
Tyson Granger
Tyson Granger | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
Tyson Granger, known in Japan as Takao Kinomiya (木ノ宮 タカオ, Kinomiya Takao), is the main character of the anime and manga series of Beyblade. In the Japanese version of G-Revolution Takao's nickname was "The Champ". Tyson was voiced by Motoko Kumai in the Japanese version, and is voiced by Marlowe Gardiner-Heslin in the English version. Tyson is very outgoing, outspoken and cheerful, though prone to a short temper, emotional outbursts and overconfidence. By the end of the series he is a more introverted character and more serious about his responsibility as the Beyblade world champion. His closest friend and confidant throughout the series is Kenny, whom he goes to school with in V-Force, and who battles alongside him as his beyblading partner in G-Revolution. By the end of the series Tyson develops a unique relationship with Kai, who also becomes one of his close friends.
Family
- Hiro Granger (in Japan, Hitoshi Kinomiya (木ノ宮 仁, Kinomiya Hitoshi): Tyson's older brother, a wise blader with much knowledge to offer in Beyblade G-Revolution. He also has an alter ego, Jin of the Gale, Hurricane Jin (疾風のジン, Shippu No Jin) in the Japanese version. Hiro first taught Tyson how to beyblade. Hiro initially joined the BEGA League as Brooklyn's coach, but later joined the G-Revolutions to bring BEGA down and defeat Brooklyn. His bitbeast is called Metal-Driger.
- Mr. Granger (in Japan, Tatsuya Kinomiya (木ノ宮 龍也, Kinomiya Tatsuya): Tyson's father, known as Bruce in the dub version, an archaeologist who is dedicated to finding out how bit-beasts work, where they came from and why they are in beyblades themselves, and travels all over the world to find his answers.
- Mrs. Granger: Tyson's mother, Tyson himself knows very little about her as she died when Tyson was only 4 months old. In the English manga, Tyson protects a bed of flowers from being trampled during a training session with his grandpa, claiming "before she died, mom loved them." His grandpa then briefly thinks of Tysons mother, calling her "Yoshie". In her picture she wears her hair in a ponytail, a trait that appears often in the Granger family.
- Ryu "Grandpa" Granger (in Japan, Ryūnosuke Kinomiya (木ノ宮 龍之介, Kinomiya Ryūnosuke): Tyson's grandfather, a Samurai dojo trainer who raised Tyson in Tokyo. He often publicly embarrasses Tyson with his out-there attitude - a running gag in the anime is that he constantly points his kendo stick at people and tries to recruit them to his training.
- In the end of the Beyblade manga (vol. 14), Tyson has a son named Makoto Kinomiya, but his wife is never revealed.
Kai Hiwatari
Kai Hiwatari | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
Kai Hiwatari (火渡カイ, Hiwatari Kai) is a the captain of the Bladebreakers and one of the main protagonists throughout most of the anime series. He is the keeper of the phoenix bit-beast Dranzer, or in the original Japanese version, Suzaku, the phoenix god of the South in Japanese/Chinese legend. He is introduced as the team captain of the Blade Sharks as well as the Beyblade world champion. He is known to have a moody and introverted persona. After the Regional Tournament, the director of the Bladebreakers offers Kai a position as team captain of the Bladebreakers.
At the World Championship, he leaves the Bladebreakers and joins with his grandfather (Voltaire), and his team, the Demolition Boyz. After battling with members of the Bladebreakers, Kai then acknowledges his role as leader of a great team and rejoins the Bladebreakers for the championships. During the second season, Kai retires from Beyblading to attend the Whitney Prep School. At his school he is attacked by Dunga from the Saint Shields where they have an intense match that ends in a tie. Kai then rejoins the bladebreakers and helps defeat Team Psychic and their Cyber Bitbeasts. Afterwards he pairs up with Ray for the tag team Beyblading championships but he loses his battle against Zeo in the semi-finals along with Dranzer. Dranzer returns to Kai's blade after Tyson beats Zeo in the finals.
He has a son, Gou Hiwatari, who appears briefly at the end of the manga battling Tyson's son Makoto. His mother is unknown.
Kai's beyblades for the first season were: Dranzer Spiral, Dranzer Flame, and, temporarily, Black Dranzer, and their attacks being spiral fireball, flame saber and black saber respectively. In the second season he uses Dranzer Flame, Dranzer Volcano, and Dranzer Volcano 2.
Max Tate
Max Tate | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
Max Tate, Max Mizuhara (水原 マックス, Mizuhara Makkusu) in Japan, is a happy, good-natured kid who always sees the best in everything and everyone. He was voiced by Ai Orikasa in the Japanese version and Gage Knox in the North American version. He is like a brother to Tyson and loves to laugh at whatever life throws at him. Max is a highly skilled Beyblader specializing in a defensive style. He lives with his Dad who runs a local hobby shop specializing in beyblades and his Mom is a research scientist at a top-secret BBA facility and coaches the American Beyblade team the All Starz. After the end of the Beyblade World Championships, Max moves back to America with his mother Judy to help her with beyblade research.
His bit-beast is Draciel, the water turtle. Max uses 4 Beyblades in season 1: Draciel Max, Draciel Metal Ball, Draciel Shield, Draciel Fortess. He has 3 beyblades in season 2: Draciel Fortress, Draciel Viper, Draciel Viper 2. In season 3 his beyblades were: Draciel Viper 2, Draciel Gravity, Draciel Metal Shield.
Ray Kon
Ray Kon | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
Raymond Kon, more commonly known as Ray Kon, known in the Japanese version as Rei Kon (金李, Japanese: Kon Rei, Chinese Pinyin: Jīn Lǐ) is voiced by Daniel DeSanto in the US/UK version, whilst voiced by Aya Hisakawa in the Japanese version. In the Japanese versions, his given name is often written in katakana as "レイ." He is generally shown as to be calm and open minded. Many comparatives can be made between his personality and the this metaphysical concept of Yin and Yang, which he appropriately wears the symbol of, the Taijitu.
Ray's beyblades and their attacks in this season were Driger Slash (Tiger Claw) & Driger Fang (Tiger Fang). In the second season he uses Driger Vulcan 2 (Vulcan Power Claw). Then he uses Driger Gatling (Gatling Claw), and Driger Metal Slash (Thunder Slash) in the third season.
In the last chapter of the Beyblade Manga. Ray is married to Mariah Wong and have a daughter together.
Kenny
Kenny/Chief | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
Kenny is known in the original Japanese version as Professor (キョウジュ Kyouju) and in the English version as the Chief. He is voiced by Houko Kuwashima in the Japanese version, and Alex Hood in the English dub. In the Japanese version, his real name, Manabu Saien (才媛マナブ Saien Manabu), is only revealed later in the series by his mother.
Kenny is the "brains" of the Bladebreakers team. He is a "self-described nerd" because of his advanced expertise on beyblading and computer technology as well as an expert on every aspect of the sport. Kenny created the HMS series in the anime, and is shown to be of genius intelligence as demonstrated in his ability to repair and modify beyblades to the best of their potential. This was, for the first two seasons, the sole reason for his involvement in the Bladebreakers team - but in G-Revolution Kenny begins to come into his own as a blader, and becomes an official competing member of the team upon the departure of Max and Ray from the Bladebreakers.
In the English dub of the first two seasons of the anime, Kenny's laptop has a female bit-beast inside, called Dizzi who was added to the show in placement of Kenny's normal laptop screen.
Hilary
Hilary Tachibana | |
---|---|
Beyblade character | |
Hilary as she appears in the third season. |
Hilary Tachibana, known as Hiromi Tachibana (立花 ヒロミ, Tachibana Hiromi) in the original version, is a character introduced in the second season of the series. She only appears in the anime and not in the manga. Hilary is Tyson's classmate as well as the class president, often frustrated with trying to get Tyson to do his work. As a result, she tends to be very loud, bossy, and over-reactive, but is still intelligent, kindhearted, and unrelentingly stubborn. Though she is not a beyblader, she becomes a member of the Bladebreakers as their manager and coach and usually works alongside Kenny. As her position on the team solidifies, she becomes less excitable and exhibits a responsible and mature attitude. A running gag in the show is that her cooking is terrible, which both Tyson and Daichi constantly note, and she is usually the comic relief throughout the series.
As Hilary is not a beyblader, she is initially seen as a nuissance by the Bladebreakers and Tyson dubs her the "Wicked Witch of Eighth Grade" for her tenacity. She is accepted by Kai after she provides the team with an effective training schedule and the rest of the team warms up to her presence. However, Hilary is frustrated by her inability to see Bit-beasts and initially believes the boys are tricking her so they can exclude her from their activities. After she gains the power to see Bit-beasts, the team fully accepts her as one of their members and she becomes a loyal and reliable friend. Because she is less familiar with beyblading and does not beyblade herself, Hilary often uses her head to help solve problems the Bladebreakers encounter.
During the third season, Hilary remains with Tyson and Kenny as they are forced to reform the Bladebreakers into the BBA Revolution with Daichi Sumeragi and without Kai, Max, or Ray. She becomes the assistant coach and manager of the team along with Tyson's older brother, Hiro. After a few weeks the BEGA appeared and demolished the whole BBA company and the building, putting the sport of beyblading in a different playing field. The whole team is forced out from buying beyblade parts from shops since each shop required a BEGA identification card, another one of Boris's schemes to force Tyson out of beyblading unless Tyson joins the BEGA League, like Kai already has, and throws in the towel on the Justice 5 Match. Hilary tried, but failed to buy any parts. She lends out a hand to help the team build their own beyblading parts as the BEGA team gets ready for them. Later, after the BBA was saved, Hilary looks for Kai and Tyson, as always, and finds them both about to start a Beybattle, the denouement of the final chapter of Beyblade G-Revolution.
Daichi
Daichi Sumeragi | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
Daichi Sumeragi (皇 大地, Sumeragi Daichi) is a beyblader who joins Tyson's team in Beyblade G-Revolution after the Bladebreakers are dissolved. He appears in the third season, Beyblade: The Movie - Fierce Battle and the manga. A young hyperactive blader with a blade called Strata Dragoon (Gaia Dragoon in the original Japanese version), he becomes tag team partner of Tyson during the BBA Tournament. Along with his flaming red hair and mismatching shorts, Daichi is most well known for having a huge advantage in outdoor Bey-dishes as he has trained close to nature and perfected his style of Beyblading. His hotheaded personality is reminiscent of Tyson's, which causes the two to clash as much as they get along. His weakness is over-confidence demonstrated by his two defeats once to Kai and later with Ming-Ming.
Daichi is also categorized as one of the strongest Beybladers in G-Revolution as he was able to beat Rick of the PPB All Starz. He also provides comic relief in the series with his fear of flying, constant eating and heckling Tyson. He is finally beaten by the BEGA League blader, Ming-Ming but tells her that he would win the next time they battle. Daichi is also a major character in the film Beyblade: The Movie - Fierce Battle in which his Gaia Dragoon is the bit-beast used to release the Dark Beasts that are locked up in Demon Rock island.
At the beginning of the third season, Tyson is shocked to find out that Daichi has a variant of Dragoon, and claims that his own is the only one. Tyson and Daichi's bit-beasts can use a combination attack, called the Twin Tornado Attack, which may have been the first time this happens in the series. When Daichi's father died, he inherited the bit-beast, so Daichi, like Tyson, always seeks solace in it. Daichi is a hard working blader because of his father who worked as a forest wood cutter and was very strong. He lives in the forest from where he came, and challenges Tyson for a battle at the start of the third session. During the battle, Kenny notices that Daichi has an advantage with natural playing fields and Tyson has an advantage in a regular Bey dish. Daichi impresses Max and Ray at first, but not Kai, as he thinks that Tyson is much more skilled than Daichi.Tyson and Daichi often do not get along very well with Tyson calling him 'monkeyboy', Daichi's nickname which Tyson keeps calling him throughout the third series. Although they often have meaningless fights and eating contests they still remain good friends. In the manga he has a mother named Orin and he stars in his own sidestory. He meets several rivals including Hikaru Tomonji and Kennosuke Shishi.
Daichi 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. Also his personality resembles Tyson's; the similarities include their "never give up" attitude, eating habits and constantly re-challenging people even after winning or losing. In the Japanese version of G-revolution Daichi's nickname in the American arc was "Wild Monkey". This can be seen in episode 10 towards the start of the episode were DJ is explaining the contestants. Takao's nickname is "The Champ". At the end of the manga (vol.14), Daichi becomes the new referee in place of Blader D.J./D.J. Jazzman. Gaia Dragoon is the Beyblade version of the Huang long, the occasional fifth sacred beast in the myths of the Four Sacred Beasts, represented by the original four members of the Bladebreakers.
Hiro Granger
List of Beyblade characters | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
Hiro Granger, known in the Japanese versions as Hitoshi Kinomiya (木ノ宮仁, Kinomiya Hitoshi) is Tyson's older brother and an extremely strong beyblade. He only appears in the third season of the anime, Beyblade G-Revolution, but appears throughout the manga from the beginning. His bit-beast is Metal Driger. In the manga his Holy Monster is Metal Driger. He is voiced by Tim Hamaguchi in the English dub. He is one of three characters to reappear after the first Beyblade game on the GBC, the others being Kai and Tyson.
Hiro appears in volume 1 as a rival/villain and confronts Tyson on his skills. He later brings Ray to the Japanese tournament to compete. After the tournament finishes, he reveals his true identity to his younger brother who has returned to Japan. Later as part of the world championships, the Japanese team of Tyson, Ray, Max and Kai travel to China, along with Kenny, to compete against the White Tigers. Before they enter the tournament, Hiro introduces them to a site his father and him had worked at before he had returned to Japan in the first place. There he explains the importance of the four sacred bit-beasts which are housed into the Beyblades and how other sacred spirits will now appear. Hiro follows the team throughout the entire championships until the end. When the championship is won, he once again disappears. He returns upon the second tournament to aid Tyson and his team in the World Championships once again. After the team splits up into their own countries team, Hiro accomplices Tyson, Kenny and now Daichi until the last volume where the final battle of Tyson and Kai is left unfinished.
In the anime, Hiro first appears as his alter-ego, Jin of the Gale (Shippu no Jin). He seems to be another ordinary villain. However, Tyson feels that he is familiar, as if foreshadowing. When "Jin of the Gale" sent a battle invitation to Tyson, Ray intercepts it and challenges him. During their battle, Ray gives everything he has but eventually admits his inability to surpass Jin, which resorts to his final attack, Hiro emerged victorious regardless of being caught off guard. Even though Jin won, he does not desire to battle Tyson anymore. When Jin finally reveals himself to be Tyson's brother, Hiro Granger, they share a brief reunion which doesn't last long.
Hiro turns out to be a strict coach who doesn't care about anything but the team and it actually makes him look like a villain in his own right. The truth is that he wants to prepare Tyson the best he can for whatever comes his way. After the world tournament in the first half of the season, Hiro surprises everyone by joining the BEGA League. This angers Tyson. At first, his reason was to help Tyson. If he trained a strong blader, Tyson would have to get stronger as well. However, when Hiro saw Brooklyn's talent, he wished to create a strong rival in order for him to defeat and left BBA Revolution. Through the Justice 5 tournament, he stood by Brooklyn, but at the very end, he expresses his pride in Tyson through his thoughts and leaves to train.
Though no real reason is given, Kai seems to hate Hiro. Tension is very thick between them when they talk, and Kai clearly states later on for Hiro to stay out of his way. During the World Championship, Hiro chose Daichi and Kenny to battle with Kai and Tala of the Blitzkrieg Boys, meaning that Tyson wouldn't fight Kai. When Kai started his game with Daichi, his Dranzer hit Daichi's Strata Dragoon in the air, and then hit the wall very close to Hiro. Kai stared very angrily at Hiro, showing his anger for not being able to battle Tyson. Also during Kai's first confrontation with Brooklyn, Hiro speaks to Kai in a very condescending tone to the point of insulting Kai's ability as a beyblader stating that he will never match Brooklyn's talent.
Although never fully proven, Hiro is constantly being hinted as the strongest and most powerful blader in the series. He defeats Ray with relative ease, and able to successfully predict victory at the beginning of a match. Moreover, he is able to manipulate elemental objects into his own benefit which he declares only one of his many tricks. He is able to change his strategy based on an opponents strengths as well as weaknesses, therefore makes him invincible and unpredictable.
Teams
Season One
White Tigers
The White Tigers are a team of Beybladers. The team consists of Lee Wong, Mariah Wong, Gary Tan, Kevin Cheng, and in the third season Beyblade G-Revolution only, Ray Kon and Master Tao.

Lee Wong |
---|
- Lee (Rai)
- Lee Wong, known in the Japanese version as Chen Rai (チェン・ライ) is a fierce competitor in Series One. He holds grudges for years and uses that as his advantage in battle. He is well respected and in turn respects his village and its people. However, because he is an emotional character it sometimes leads him to lose his cool and even break down. He's quick to anger and speaks his mind, and also has a tendency to push himself a little too hard. Lee can often harness his passion for Beyblading into the strength and resolve required to win, and is also able to predict and follow his opponent's every move.
- Lee is voiced by Koichi Nagano in the original version, and by Ted Cole in the English dub. He shares the same English voice actor with Spencer, Kane, and Barthez.
Mariah Wong | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
- Mariah (Mao)
- Mariah is the first girl-blader to appear in the series. She has cat-like features and a fierce bitbeast. She is completely loyal to the White Tiger team and always tries to keep the peace within it. She likes to taunt other bladers who think she can't beat them and because of her speed, she can knock bladers off guard. Her friendship is also with Ray. Despite the team distrusting him when he left in Series 1, she still believed he would return and stay a member of the team. Mariah has a playful attitude and supports the "girl-power" idea. At times, she can get very aggressive. She gets along very well with the other girls.
- Mariah is voiced by Niina Kumagaya in the original version, and by Julie Lemieux in the English dub. She shares the same English voice actress with the dub-only character Dizzi, Ms. Kincaide, and Julia.
Kevin Cheng | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
- Kevin (Kiki)
- Kevin, known in the Original Japanese version as Kiki (キキ), has a wild and unpredictable style. His bit-beast is Galman, a monkey that seems to produce more copies of itself to confuse his opponent. Kevin Tan loses to Tyson twice, and is never able to get revenge in the finals of the Asian tournament. His special attacks are the Crazy Monkey attack and Monkey Claw attack. When Ray left, this made Kevin angry. He's slightly selfish, and is a bit of a prankster. He has a somewhat brotherly relationship with Gary, and he is good friends with Mariah. He may be small, but Kevin is one nimble character. His taunting tactics not only annoy, but also provoke his rivals. And when facing off against another team, it's Kevin who provides both physical and verbal distractions from the battle at hand.
- He is voiced by Junko Shimakata in the original version, and by Lyon Smith in the English dub. He shares the same English voice actor with Michael, DJ Jazzman (V-Force only), and Romero.
- His beyblades are Galman with the Crazy Monkey attack and Galman 2 with the Illusion Confusion attack.
Gary | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
- Gary (Gaou)
- Gary, known in the Japanese version as Gaou (ガオゥ) 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. His attacks are Bear Axe Attack and Bear Stomp Attack. He has a somewhat brotherly relationship with Kevin. He was shown in the BEGA arc. along with all with his team mates, helping Tyson and his gang control the HMS blades and actually try being on the team.

- Master Tao
- Master Tao is the coach - or "sensei" - of White Tiger X. He makes his first and only appearance in G-Revolution, though according to Rei and his teammates he was their teacher long beforehand. Tao is something of an oddity; while he clearly knows a great deal more than he lets on, his strange "words of wisdom" leave much to be desired, and his odd and somewhat perverted nature often conceals how wise he truly is. Tao is voiced by John McGrath in the English dub.
All Starz
The All Starz (later known as PPB All Starz) are a team of Beybladers. The team consisted of Michael, Steven, Eddy and Emily in the First Season, and Max and Rick in the Third season, while Michael, Eddie and Emily would be supporting members. They hail from the United States of America, and except for Max and Rick, they enjoy & feature sports apart from Beyblade: Steven kicks a Football, Eddy dunks a basketball on the ground, and Emily uses a tennis racquet to strike a tennis ball.
In the original version, The All Starz are always known as the PPB All Stars. The dub removed PPB and placed it back in G-Revolution, and they replaced the last "s" with "z". They are also the only team in season one to have all its members keep their original names

- Rick Anderson (voiced by Takehiro Murozono)
- Rick is a bull-like strong blader but he doesn't have respect for the game. He first appears in G-Revolution where he teams up with Max and forms the PPB All Starz. His bitbeast is Rock Bison and his finishing move is the Drop Rock attack. He is dominant in the first couple of matches where he physically destroys the left arm of Claude of the Barthez Battalion and in his second match where he manhandles Raul of the F-Dynasty. During the fight against the White Tiger X, he is forced to fight together with Max against Ray and Lee. During this fight, Rick learns how to work in a team. However, his dream of becoming the world champion ends when he and Max are defeated by the BBA Revolution.

In the final scenes of Beyblade G-Revolution, Rick is seen beyblading with Carlos in an alley.
Emily York | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
- Emily York (voiced by Yukari Honma)
- Emily is shown to be quite snobby and stuck up. She does not like trash talk, as she jumps to the challenge when Tyson exclaims that he is just as good as those trained in the PPB corporation. She beats Max in a small beyblade match showing the strength of the All Starz in that match.

---|---|
Beyblade character |

Dark Bladers
The Dark Bladers (Team WHO in the Japanese version) are a beyblade team appearing only in the first season. The team is composed by four monsters: Sanguinex, Lupinex, Cenotaph and Zomb. They are a vampire, a werewolf, a mummy and a Frankenstein creation respectively. They were turned into monsters by their hatred of the Majestics. Their agenda was to capture more bit-beasts to earn their goal to become better bladers. The Bladebreakers first encounter them in England, then on their way to France, then finally defeated them in Paris. They then kidnapped Kenny (Kyouju) during the Bladebreakers match against the Majestics, and said they were their (the Bladebreaker's) "personal monster cheering squad".
The Dark Bladers, or rather, just Sanguinex and Lupinex, reappear in the third season's epilogue (original version only). Lupinex is only seen from the face down but can be told that it is him from his telltale grin, hairy wrists and the fact that he is with his brother.

Season Two
Saint Shields
The Saint Shields are a team of the beybladers. They are formed by four mysterious teenagers whose intentions remain unclear until halfway through the second season, when they reveal that they want to capture the four sacred bit beasts in order to prevent them from falling into wrong hands. All members wear similar clothing and have Bit-Beasts at first invisible for the Bladebreakers.
- Ozuma (voiced by Alex House in the American version)
- He was the first to appear, and is the leader of the Saint Shields. His bit-beast is Flash Leopard.

- His beyblade is Flash Leopard with the Cross Fire and Sacred Fire attacks.
- Joseph (voiced by Jason Barr in the American version)
- A 14 year old kid, Joseph is Mariam's younger brother and is very sneaky. He was the chosen one to sneak into and out of the Psykick hideouts to see what they were up to.

- His beyblade is Vanishing Moot with the Great Rock attack.
- Mariam (voiced by Shannon Perreault in the American version)
- Mariam is as skillful and dangerous as her teammates. Her sense of humor often gets under Dunga's skin and she rarely lets an opportunity to give him a jab slip by, especially when he's fighting any battle. During her fights, she tends to be unpredictable, and her ability to confuse her opponents leaves them vulnerable for attack. She often teams up with her little brother Joseph to take on their more difficult opponents. Together, they are a formidable pair. However, they lost to the King & Queen during the World Championship. She was so absorbed in her destiny to seal the sacred bit-beasts that she forgot about the beyblading spirit. Only after her battle with Max, did she realize the true spirit of a Beyblader.
- Her beyblade is Sharkrash with the Abyss Fire attack.
- Mariam has shown some feelings for Max, though she usually turns him down because of her loyalty to the Saint Shields. They're often portrayed as a couple.
- Dunga (voiced by Tony Daniels in the American version)
- Dunga is the muscle of the Saint Shields. His strength is rivaled only by his temper. He uses his fury and anger during fights to provide maximum power for his beyblade. However, once he loses his temper, he may be easily defeated. His bit-beast is Vortex Ape, a gorilla, and the perfect Bit Beast for such a strong and short-tempered blader.
- His beyblade is Vortex Ape with the Spark Hammer attack.
King and Queen
King and Queen | |
---|---|
Beyblade character |
King and Queen are 2 blade part collectors. King and Queen are twins and they always work together when collecting blade parts. King's Beyblade is Ariel and Queen's Beyblade is Gabriel. When they first appeared in Beyblade V-Force, King challenged Kai Hiwatari to a battle. In the battle, King revealed his bit-beast Ariel but Kai used Dranzer and almost defeated him, until Queen suddenly joined the battle using her bit-beast Gabriel to help King defeat Kai and shatter Dranzer into pieces. Seeing no use on a broken Beyblade, they simply walked away.
By the days of the world championship, Dr. K appeared and offered them to join her so that they could gain the power of the sacred bit-beasts, but they did not accept the offer, at first. Afterwards, they attacked a boy, but Kai challenged them before they could destroy the boy's Beyblade. After a fight between King and Kai, both escape leaving the battle undecided. Later on, both of them finally accept to join Dr. K. They challenge Kane and Jim on a beach and destroyed their beyblades, leading to their disqualification on the championship.
During the championship, King & Queen have their first fight against Joseph and Mariam and even though playing against the rules (both teammates on the stadium at the same time), Mr. Dickenson allows the fight to carry on. In the end, both Joseph and Mariam's Beyblades were destroyed (except for the attack rings, which were stolen by their adversaries) and King & Queen win. On the next fight, against Tyson and Max they were defeated. Queen has her Beyblade destroyed and King joins Tyson in an attempt to stop Dr. K (who was shooting flash lights on Dragoon). In the end of the battle, both King and Queen admit they've been wrong and announce they are now travelling around the world to acquire experience.
In Beyblade G-Revolution, they are seen having what looks like a championship 2-on-2 battle with Julia Fernandez and Raul Fernandez from F-Dynasty in the series finale. This scene was cut from the dub.
King and Queen are voiced by Hirofumi Nojima and Mie Sonozaki in the original version, respectively. In the English Version, David Berni does King's voice.
Team Psykick
Team Psykick is a of Beybladers in the anime and manga series Beyblade. They only appear in Beyblade V-Force. Some of them were also seen at the end of G Revolution. The team is owned by a beyblading corporation called Zagart Industries, owned by Dr. Zagart. A member of Team Psykick is usually referred to as a Psykick or a group of bladers Psykicks. The main antagonists are led by Gideon and Doctor B as their main instructors. The goal of Team Psykick was to capture the 4 sacred spirits, or "bit-beasts" from the world champion Beyblading team, the Bladebreakers.
Core Members
- Dr. Zagart
- Zeo's father and the CEO of Zagart Industries. He is trying to steal the 4 Bladebreakers sacred beasts to revive Zeo into a real boy. He was introduced only after Gideon's death. (Voiced by: Lawrence Bayne in the English dub)
- Gideon (Sierra Gideon)
- Gideon is the overseer of Team Psykick and the one who thought of the Cyber Bit-Beast project. He hires Dr. B to do most of his work and lead the other scientists. Unbeknownst to the others, he actually answers to a man called Dr. Zagart. After Tyson defeats Kane and the Battle Tower collapses, Gideon is crushed under the debris and dies. Episode 3-27. (Voiced by: Len Carlson in the English dub)
- Dr. B (Rourke W. Bender)
- Dr. B is the head scientist of Team Psykick and is called in when Gideon's normal henchmen aren't able to capture Tyson's Dragoon. He is the main reason the Bladebreakers reunite, as he calls for a match between chosen Psykick members and the Bladebreakers. He is extremely arrogant almost to the point of insanity, as when his plans fail he tends to scream and act out like a child. After that, he's started to his last laughing manically, and attempts to kill everyone in the Battle Tower by pressing a button that is presumed to be an explosive, but Gideon stops him and pushes him away, putting him under the falling debris of the collapsing building. He dies by the electrocution on computer screen. Episode 6-27. (Voiced by: Tony Daniels in the English dub)
- Doctor K
- The beautiful scientist that worked for Dr. Zagart. She managed to steal the sacred rock containing the power of multiple Bit Beasts for Zagart, but she was fired by him before the World Championships, for disloyalty in handing over the extracted bit-beasts from the rock. She then went on to coach King & Queen in the World Championship. (Voiced by: Joanne Vannicola in the English dub)
The Psykicks
- The Psykicks are the group of beybladers chosen to wield the Cyber Bit-Beasts and defeat the Bladebreakers. The bladers have changed over time, until Gideon finally settled on the main four. Unlike normal Psykicks, who wear green uniforms, these bladers wear lavender and black.
- Kane Yamashita
- Kane is the leader of the Psykicks and the blader chosen to control Cyber Dragoon. Kane is very calm and collected in nature, making him a born leader and an inspiration to his team. It is also hinted that Salima may have feelings for him. Kane and the other Psykicks are shown to have been involved with Gideon before, but their past remains unexplored. He is voiced by Yuuki Tai in the original version, and by Peter Cugno in the English dub.
- Salima
- Salima is the Beyblader chosen to use Cyber Driger. She is very kind-hearted and truly believes in her team's goal: to learn everything they possibly can about beyblading. She, like Kane, was skeptical about using the Cyber Bit-beasts in battle, but her lust for power got the better of her. Salima grows a close bond with Ray because they both want to have fair fights, since Tyson was also considering breaking the rules to protect their bit-beasts. Though Ray is profoundly affected by Salima's influence, she mostly shows romantic feelings for Kane. Salima is voiced by Hikaru Ikeda in the original version, and by Susan Roman in the English dub.
- Jim
- Jim is the Beyblader chosen to use Cyber Draciel. He is a tactical genius, almost to the point of being cocky, being able to figure out a beyblade's RPM rating and a Beyblader's attack pattern simply by watching them. He is the first to be introduced to the Cyber Bit-Beasts. The test put a physical and mental strain on Jim, and after he passed, he immediately started craving more power. He is the only Psykick to beat a Bladebreaker and capture his bit-beast, which was Max. Even though he is rather smart, he seems to have confidence issues, shown when he runs to the table crying after King and Queen destroy his beyblade. Jim is voiced by Ayaka Yamashita in the original version, and by Mary Long in the English dub.
- Goki
- Goki is the Beyblader chosen to use Cyber Dranzer. His main resolve is his raw power, although he does seem to share Kane's and Salima's values. Like Jim, severe mental stress is put on Goki due to the Cyber Bit-beasts influence, and breaks down in tears after losing to Kai. Goki is voiced by Yasuhiro Fujiwara in the original version, and by Craig Lauzon in the English dub.
Original Team
- This team was the team that the Bladebreakers were forced to face on an island located at the east coast of Japan.
- Daryl
- Daryl is the Beyblader who fights Tyson on Dr. B's island. His beyblade is able to blade on water due to a vacuum that takes in the water and pumps it back out. (Voiced by Raoul Bhaneja in the English dub)

- Net
- Net is a young reject. He was chosen to wield a spider bit beast, Phantom Spider. He was sent to steal Tyson's Dragoon but was soon defeated.
- Jack
- Jack is an underground beyblader. He was chosen to wield the invisible wind bit beast, Sickle Weasel. He challenges Kai and severely beats him as Kai is unable to see his bit beast. Once Kai is able to see his bit beast he summons Dranzer and destroys Sickle Weasel at the cost of damaging his own blade.
- Dennis
- Dennis is a Dinosaur fanatic. He was chosen to wield a rock bit beast called Tyranno. He challenges Max to a battle but only toys with him for a while before calling back his bit beast. He then lures Max into a warehouse where Dr.K uses energy injection to make Tyranno stronger. He almost defeats Max until Tyranno overloads on energy and is destroyed.
- Denny
- Like Jack he was an underground beyblader who cheats to win. He was chosen to wield the rock bit beast Klarken. He challenges Ray who manges to hold his own against him until Denny launches another beyblade containing another Klarken. Zeo then joins the battle and inspired by his courage and determination, Ray vanquishes the two Clarkens.
Team Zagart
- Zeo (voiced by Hisayo Yanai in the Japanese version, and Tim Hamaguchi in the American version)
- This robotic replicant of Zagart's son (who died in an accident) has 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). In G-revolution there is a short scene that shows a short-hair Zeo standing by the window.
- His beyblade is Burning Cerberus with the Chain Storm attack.He took both Draciel and Dranzer away from both Kai and Max, but the Bit-Beasts were returned to them after Tyson defeated Zeo.
- Gordo
- This Blader was chosen by Zagart to be the teammate for Zeo. He is a skillful Beyblader, able to control a Rock Bit Beast, Orthrus. Gordo's performance at the World Championship is a descendant line: He first beats up Dunga very easily, then has a tie with Ray, and is defeated by Tyson in the final match. (Voiced by Hisayoshi Suganuma in the Japanese version and Craig Lauzon in the American version)
- His beyblade is Orthrus with the Twin Spire attack.
Other Members
- These are the other members that make up Team Psykick. However, there are many more blader grunts and scientists.

- Snakey is the first Beyblader chosen to wield Gideon's new Magtram (the anime's version of the South-Polarity Magnacore). His beyblade is able to cut through steel. He is defeated by Tyson. (Voiced by Eric Woolfe in the English dub)
- Wyatt
- Wyatt was a student at Whitney Prep School that was one of Kai's biggest fans. He dreamed of one day being a world champion like Kai. He asks Kai to train him on multiple occasions, but is turned down. Due to this, he joins Team Psykick and uses the prototype Cyber Dranzer. His battle with Dunga puts an enormous amount of stress on him, as he was trying not to show any weakness in front of Kai. He falls to the ground, unable to handle the immense power, and dies. His death was watered down in the dub, as they don't explicitly say he is dead, but they do not say he is alive either. Kai's words about Wyatt are "he was never the same again." (Voiced by Edward Glen in the American version)
- Gerry
- Gerry is the very first Beyblader chosen to wield the prototype Cyber Dragoon. He uses it in a local beyblade tournament and nearly destroys the building. He collapses, falling under the pressure. (Voiced by Craig Lauzon in the English dub)
Season Three
F-Dynasty
F Dynasty (F-sangre in the Japanese version) is a Beyblading team. Raul and Julia Fernandez are the twin Beybladers representing Spain. When Beyblading together, they can combine their attacks to Gemini Grash and Gemini Attack. They were born and raised into a circus, and specialise in tag team Beyblade matches. Their coach is Romero. The manga version of Beyblade, Raul and Julia come from "the noble Fernandez family", instead of a circus, F Dynasty only appears during season three of Beyblade, Beyblade G-Revolution.
Julia Fernandez | |
---|---|
Bayblade character |
- Julia Fernandez (voiced by Kumiko Watanabe)
- Julia is the older twin by a few minutes, and seems to take control over her brother Raul. Not only is she a strong tag team Beyblader, but she is also pretty powerful on her own. Julia has a very short temper, and often gets angry at Raul. She is very confident, although it was shown in episode 22 of G-revolution that this was mainly due to her brother's presence. Julia is often very bossy and seems to nearly always take control of situations.
- Her beyblade is Thunder Pegasus with the Toda la Fuerza attack, and her Beyblade style is a combination of attack, endurance and defence.
Raul Fernandez | |
---|---|
Bayblade character |
- Raul Fernandez (voiced by Akiko Kimura)
- Raul is the youngest twin. He is usually not as aggressive as his sister. He is not very confident most of the times, and relies his sister's support. In episode 22, Raul wants to have a Beyblade match on his own during the Beyblade World Championships (since he is known for his team work with Julia) because he feels he needs to prove to himself that he is just as strong as Julia, and that he isn't bringing the team down. With his sister backing him up, he wins the match, proving he is also a strong blader, though he will still fight side to side with Julia.
- His beyblade is Torch Pegasus with the Fuerza Valiente attack.
- Romero (voiced by Hidefumi Takemoto in the Japanese version, and Lyon Smith in the American version)
- Romero is the F-Dynasty's coach, and the one who taught Raul and Julia how to beyblade. He found the twins in a travelling circus, and taught them how to incorporate the various tricks they learned (or had attempted to learn) into beyblading. He is something of a womanizer, and when he isn't giving the women that flock to him the time of day he shows an almost equal love for food of all kinds. He also seems to enjoy fishing as a recreational activity.
- Romero seems to be rather calm and easygoing, and frets over very little. At one stage, he was shown snoozing while Raul and Julia were bickering, clearly unconcerned about their petty squabbling. He also seems to be a great deal more cunning than he appears, easily swaying Mr. Dickenson into allowing a tag team match between F-Dynasty and White Tiger X.
- During the BEGA arc, he helped Kai Hiwatari learn to control his new heavy metal system Dranzer Blade.
Barthez Battalion
The Barthez Battalion is a group of fictional characters in the popular Beyblade anime and manga series. The team consists of Miguel, Mathilda, Aaron, Claude and their coach Barthez. The team only appears during the third season, Beyblade G-Revolution.
The Barthez Battalion was introduced to the Bladebreakers through the television, when it was announced that they have knocked the Majestics out of the championship. Tyson found it very strange that the Majestics were defeated by such a new, unknown team. Though the members of the team are well-intentioned, they blindly follow the orders of Barthez, who forces them to cheat in order to win. After Miguel battles against Tyson, they realize that cheating is wrong and they do not need to follow Barthez's orders any longer.
On their last fight, and first following their own strategies, they face the F-Dynasty. The first match between Julia and Miguel ends with Julia's victory. For the next round, they ask Mathilda to fight, using a beyblade made with parts of all other members' bey-parts. Raul, on the other side of the bey-stadium, needs to prove to himself and his sister that he can do well all by himself, or in other words, without his sister's assistance. He wins, and the Barthez Battalion leaves the championship proud of having played according to the rules and to their own strategies. Barthez Battalion then ditch their coach and fight the rest of the tournament fairly. Although they are knocked out of the tournament, they accept their defeat gracefully. It was later revealed in the series that, according to Tala, the team was merely a demonstration put together by BEGA in order to cause a splash at the world tournament with their coach, Barthez, being Boris' agent after all. But thanks to Tyson's effort, Miguel realized that Barthez could not be trusted. Barthez Battalion represents Europe during the Beyblade World Championships.
Miguel | |
---|---|
Beyblade G-Revolution character |
- Miguel (voiced by Chris Marren in the American version)
- Miguel is the main player on the team. He cares for his teammates and will do anything for them. He is often teamed with Claude and the two are both great battle partners and close friends. As Team Leader, he is put under the most pressure by Coach Barthez, and is very conflicted about cheating in order to win. This boils to a point where he rebels against Barthez's orders completely in his match against Tyson, and though it ended in his defeat, Miguel was proud to have fought honorably. After admitting his faults and fighting fairly for the remainder of his matches, Miguel and his team gained new-found respect from the other teams and from the fans. While beyblading, he grows devil wings. His bit-beast is Dark Gargoyle with the Fire Execution attack. Miguel and Mathilda appear occasionally to support the G Revolutions team as they fight against the BEGA League.
Mathilda | |
---|---|
Beyblade G-Revolution character |
- Mathilda (voiced by Katie Griffin in the American version)
- Mathilda is the only female member of the Barthez Battalion. She is a quiet, good natured girl who lacks confidence, and it is shown she fears her coach Barthez. Mathilda looks up to Miguel as their leader and shows respect for him. While she is generally quiet and has a mousey voice during the show, she put her all into her Beyblade matches.Very Good friends with Mariah and Julia in the end of series G-Revolution Example: Beyblade G-Revolution Episode 49.
- Mathilda's bitbeast is Pierce Hedgehog. Her Beyblade was however destroyed when Coach Barthez decided to destroy it during her Beyblade match against Daichi. Her attack is Poison Needle, and her Beyblade still is a combination of Attack, Defence and Endurance. During her bit-beast matches, when she launches her Poison Needle, she seems to grow butterfly wings, despite the fact that her bit-beast takes the form of a hedgehog. She and Miguel make sporadic appearances supporting the G-Revolutions team against BEGA.
Claude | |
---|---|
Beyblade G-Revolution character |
- Claude (voiced by Jason Barr in the American version)
- Claude was personally trained by Barthez himself. He usually never questions Barthez to his face, but often wonders if what he is doing is the right thing. Claude shows respect for Miguel and his skills. Claude was injured during his battle with Rick, although he could have moved out of the way of the attack, Barthez ordered him to stay were he was so that the crowd would favour Barthez Battalion over the All Starz.
- Claude follows Miguel's examples and stand up to Barthez. His bit-beast is Rapid Eagle (originally called "Killer Eagle"), and when he launches his Twin Sabre attack, he grows angel like wings. Aaron and Claude aren't seen until the Japanese epilogue of the series afterward.
Aaron Silva | |
---|---|
Beyblade G-Revolution character |
- Aaron (voiced by Dan Warry-Smith in the American version)
- Aaron usually does what he is told like Claude. He seems to lack confidence and doesn't stand up for himself.
- Aaron is a quite powerful Beyblader. Not very quick to get angry, he is usually fine with following Coach Barthez's orders, regardless of the consequences. The problem is, the more he finds himself acting against his morals, the more he seems to question it. He just doesn't have the nerve to go up against Barthez on his own. His bit-beast is the Rushing Boar and its attack is Spin Charge.
- Coach Barthez (voiced by Edward Glen in the American version)
- Jean-Paul Barthez is 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 and ruined him as their coach.

BEGA League
The BEGA League/Justice 5 are a team of beybladers. BEGA stands for Beyblade Entertainment Global Association. BEGA League only appear during the third season, and are seen by fans as enemies for aiding Boris. The team consists of Garland, Brooklyn, Ming-Ming, Mystel and Crusher. Their bit-beasts are named after the Greek and Roman gods.
Ming-Ming Love | |
---|---|
Beyblade character | |
First appearance | G Revolution |
- Ming-Ming (voiced by Stephanie Beard in the English version and Aya Hirano in the original Japanese version)
- Ming-Ming Love only appears in the third season, Beyblade G-Revolution. She is a new singing pop diva raising to fame as both a singer and a Beyblader. Her Beyblade is called Venus, and she works for Boris in the BEGA League.
- Usually, she portrays herself to be a sweet young girl. However, she has another, tougher side when she blades. It is easy to tell which from her size and by her eyes. Tough Ming-Ming (called Queen Form in the original) is taller and has a serious look in her eyes while innocent Ming-Ming (called Loli Form) is shorter and has a typical anime cute set of eyes. Her attitude depends on her form, but generally she is a very confident girl with a lot of pride. After (and including) the episode, Runaway Daichi, a running gag throughout the season is Kenny's uncontrollable crush on Ming-Ming.
- Brooklyn Kingston (voiced by Soichiro Hoshi in the Japanese version and Robert Tinkler in the American version)
- Brooklyn is the strongest competitor in the series which Kai and Tyson have to face. He is a naturally gifted Beyblader and doesn't need to try in order to win. There are two sides to his personality. First, the calm and seemingly gentle side and then the psychotic, aggressive side. He defeated Kai just like a child's play in their first match, though lost drastically in their second when Kai - as he himself stated - unleashed his "true" potential. He has always thought no one can beat him so he did not put ANY hard work into battling because of his "natural ability".
- Like Tyson, he is at one with his bit beast, but Brooklyn forms physical traits of his bit beast, for instance wings form on his back that reflect his bit beast Zeus's wings.
- His childhood reflected strongly in his personality. Because he always won, the other children did not want to play with him, so he was often left alone. During Brooklyn's Beyblade match with Tyson, because of Kai defeating him, he has turned insane. Brooklyn has always beybladed using only his natural ability, and because that was good enough to win he never put much energy into his matches. He realizes that, by using the combined powers of his emotions and abilities, he could create much more damage. Eventually, all his negative emotions reach their apex, especially his annoyance, frustration and sadness. These mix with the evil darkness of his demonic bit-beast, Zeus, and using King of Darkness attack, creates a black hole that proceeds to ravage and devour the entire world and everyone in it into his soul. Thus, he declares himself a god. He only calms down once Tyson explains to him the true meaning of Beyblading, using the power of the bit-beasts of his team-mates (Kai,Ray,Max and Daichi)and Tala's Wolborg (Tala woke up from his coma and sent Wolborg with his special ice attack to help Tyson) to dispel Zeus's darkness, returning the world to normal, albeit heavily ravaged. Once the chaos had passed, Tyson and Brooklyn continue their battle as it should have been, a friendly competition, free from the machinations of the now disgraced Boris. Tyson wins in the end due to Dragoon absorbing other bit-beasts's powers and then attacked and defeated Zeus. Both bladers then took their Beyblades and battled again, however, the victor was never actually shown.
- Garland Siebald (voiced by Hiroshi Kamiya in the Japanese version and David Berni in the American version)
- Garland is a confident blader who aims to be a champion of the BEGA league. He came from a family of many sports players, all his brothers and sisters have been champions in their sports except him: Jessie (Baseball), Todd (Soccer). Kayla (Tennis), Britt (Golf) and Jamie (Formula 1 Racing). He chose Beyblading to follow his dream of becoming champion like them. He is proud of his Siebald family name and fights for it. He is arrogant at times due to his confidence and underestimates bladers such as Tyson.
- His type of blading style is much like the style used in regular and kick boxing. He lets his opponent get worn out and he comes in for the kill. As seen in most of his battles, he usually finishes a regular battle with a round house kick.
- He first appeared by defeating both Bryan and Spencer of the Blitzkrieg Boys at once, indicating his powerful Beyblade. He was so strong and aggressive during his beyblade match against Tala Valkov of the Blitzkrieg Boys that he put him into hospital- his means of winning was to not only hit his opponent's beyblade, but to launch a physical martial arts attack on the blader themselves. Garland follows his family's principles of winning during his Beyblade match against Tyson, but he realizes that he was acting according to his family's principles, and not his. And during Tyson's match against Brooklyn, he also realized that although BEGA work together, they aren't a true team.
- His beyblade is Appolon with the Radiant Thunder attack.
- Mystel (voiced by Kouki Miyata and Edward Glen in the American version)
- Mystel is quite a mysterious character by nature as quoted from a Beyblade episode "The Mysterious Mystel" and is seen to be quite quirky. He spends his time in high places lurking around his team mates whenever they need to meet. He has strange abilities that makes it seem like he can float in mid-air. Water is his element and he uses it well.
- Mystel is a nice guy all round, if sometimes blunt with his wording and seems to somewhat offend the White Tiger X team when they find him in their camp; he comments on how they obviously cannot retrieve the fruit from atop the cliff like he can. He appears to have befriended Ray and the White Tigers when he first appears. He nearly persuaded Ray to join BEGA. Mystel seems to have a very free spirit, and is a very happy person. He is believed to be the youngest of the team.
- His Beyblade attacks are unpredictable. Bladers say that he uses a 360 degree attack, and he uses a bit-beast named Poseidon. Even though he is small, he's proved to be a strong blader when he defeats Lee of the White Tiger X team easily, and holds his own against Ray before an accident occurs and the battle has to end without deciding a winner.
- His beyblade is Poseidon with the Ocean Javelin attack.
- Crusher (Moses) (voiced by Masachika Takatsuka in the Japanese version, and Chris Marron in the American version)
- Even though Crusher only started to Beyblade later in his life, he is a very strong and skillful player. He was quickly trained by Boris. Crusher is large in statue, and has strange markings 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 Brooklyn 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. Crusher wins the match, in the process destroying his beyblade (it was fixed though). His reason for being a Pro Blader is to earn enough money to help his little sister, Monica, gets the medical attention she needs.
- Unfortunately, the night before the Justice 5 tiebreaker match, Boris blackmails Crusher, along with Ming-Ming, to destroy Tyson's Dragoon to ensure Boris's success, using the fact that it was Boris who funded Monica's medical expenses.
- His beyblade is Gigars with the Demolition Axe attack.
- The BEGA Band
- The BEGA Band is BEGA's mascots. The team consists of Ming-Ming, the Leader and lead singer, Jelly, the guitar player, Killy, the drummer, and Hikaru, the bass player.
