Abstract Existence
Hydranoid is called "
the embodiment of evil". This word is not a figurative meaning. Because Naga has the Silence Core, which has negative energy. Doom Beings were created by Naga, and Naga's ability to create comes from the core of silence. So he created them from negative energy. Wavern
states that Hydranoid's attacks contain Negative energy.
All Bakugan, especially Base Drago and Juggernoid, can interact with Hydranoid and other Gatekeepers created by Naga. That's why all Bakugan must have Non-Physical Interaction.
What you said doesn't justify it not being just a metaphorical statement. Being called the embodiment of evil is a pretty common figure of speech and having negative energy attacks doesn't change that at all.
Especially given how absolutely nothing in the actual anime seems to be implying Hydra has any sort of unique physiology or state of existence. The only actual piece of evidence is a what seems to be a guidebook which tend to use figures of speech a lot.
Tigrerra
Since he is a Tiger, he must have all the power and abilities of a
Tiger.
Uhm, not really. It's a tiger themed bakugan. It's body is clearly notably different from that of an actual tiger.
It is said that his
sword can cut everything in the human world. It should get Durability Negation.
Is there any reason to believe this isn't just another figure of speech? Or thanks to its AP? This statement alone isn't enough for durability negation without further context.
Also could you post full translations of the guidebook and explain it's origin? It's kinda hard to use a guidebook most people can't read.
Helios
Helios
destroyed the Trap Card with his hand. Trap Card is a type of game mechanic in the Bakugan game, and characters can break it with Power Nullification themed abilities. Helios broke it by hitting it with his hand without using any skill. These cards have no Durability. In other words, being able to break the card cannot be attributed to its great attack power. If that were the case, most characters in the series would cancel the trap card by hitting the card. (Law Manipulation)
No. Just because you could kill an and with a nuclear weapon doesn't mean mean me squishing it proves my fingers have the heat and radiation of a nuclear weapon. So connecting it to power null abilities is baseless.
And there's nothing to indicate it can't be destroyed without law manipulation. It's literally a card he's standing on, it's not some abstract law.
Apollonir
He can come into Dan's
dreams.
I guess minor dream manipulation works?
Base Drago
Drago purposely doesn't use the card Dan
directs him to play. Although it is controlled by its owner, it does not knowingly show the effect of this ability. So I think this is some kind of Body Puppetry resistance.
Uhhh this would be only limited body puppetry resistance.
Dan states it the best. "Drago has control over the ability cards
I HAVE". Not "Drago has control over all ability cards"
And even that he only appears to do by breaking through the cards rather than some hax resistance.
Mechtavius Destroyer
He managed to
kill Skyress. Skyress, who could be resurrected after death, could not be resurrected when she was killed by Mechtavius Destroyer. I guess this is Resurrection Negation
That could work depending on what type of resurrection Skyress has. For example being able to come back to life when you get shot in the head does not suggest you can resurrect from getting your entire body completely destroyed (which seems to have been the case here).
So you'll have to prove Skyress was capable of resurrecting from this level of damage before.
This should probably be posted in the hax layer evaluation thread instead
Power Nullification
You will probably not agree with this, but let me write it anyway. Although Helios has 3 Power Nullfication abilities, he gets rid of Apollonir's
ability with his Trap Bakugan, not Power Nullfication. Drago, on the other hand, can get rid of the same ability with
Power Nullification.
That's not power nullification, that's absorption. Drago also doesn't STOP siam low, he just starts absorbing Apollos power level back. You can clearly see the energy still flowing from Drago to Apollo even after the ability card is used.
Now, many of you will say that Spectra, the owner of Helios, did this because it did not occur to him. Spectra's favorite Bakugan is Helios and she knows him very well. He knows the limits of his power and every combination of abilities he can perform. Despite this, he chooses to get rid of the ability by combining Mechanical Bakugan and Helios instead of the skill card. Don't say that it can't be his own choice, because Bakugan Brawlers always play the trap Bakugan as a last resort. This is the same for Spectra, although there is a power nullification that he can play with 3, he combines the mechanical bakugan with Helios and does this just when Helios's power drops to 0 and he loses it. So there is no such thing as a hasty decision.
I'm not even sure what you're suggesting here. Are you saying that Helios' use of the card would have not worked meaning
Dragos power null > Apollo > Helios' power null?
If so, then that really doesn't work. You'd first have to prove Helios can even use the ability to begin with as Drago and him are 2 different bakugan with 2 different ability sets.
Then you'd have to prove Spectra didn't use it because it wouldn't work rather than him seeing the trap bakugan as the better option. After all, the trap bakugan both stopped the absorption, raised Helios' power level, AND gave him the additional advantages of the traps abilities.
After all, would you rather only stop your opponents ability or stop your opponents ability and give your bakugan a cool armor with laser guns.
Metal Fencer and Vexos Drago should receive 2-layer Power Nullification.
This also wouldn't be 2 layers even if everything above was correct. At best it would be:
Helios power null (baseline) <Apollos resistance (baseline) < Meta Fencer and Dragos power null (1 layer)
Body Puppetry
Drago has resistance to body puppetry as I explained above, but Spectra's Forbidden card was able to control him. 2-layer Body Puppetry with Forbidden card.
First of all, can you show it? Because iirc the card didn't just body control him but also mind control him. Meaning Dragos body being controlled would be the result of mind control rather than body puppetry.
And again, even if you were right it would only be 1 layer.
Dans cards (baseline) < Dragos resistance (baseline) < Forbidden card (1 layer)
BFR
Wavern, the user of the Infinity Core, should be sent to the Destiny Dimension with BFR, but is not affected by BFR. Another user of the Infinity Core, Drago has been affected by the BFR several times in the series. The important point here for those who don't know is that without the Infinity Core, Wavern has no extra features other than being able to fly. So the BFR resistance comes to it from the infinity core. Drago also has BFR resistance because it has the same core. Despite this, characters like Code Eve and Neo were able to BFR him. Bakugan named Neo also performs
BFR while taking Drago into his own pocket dimension. Neo and Code Eve should get 2 layer BFR.
Can you prove the infinite core is the source of the BFR resistance? Also again, please show the scene.
If you can't prove the direct correlation then you can't say Drago should gain BFR resistance off of the infinity core.
Also again, that would only be 1 layer. Same principle as before.
Memory Manipulation
The character who deleted the information that their Bakugan can talk from Shun and Julie's memories cannot change the memories of Gorem and Skyress. From here these two Bakugan should get resistance. Ancient Warriors, on the other hand, can read the minds of others and learn their memories. They can even learn memories they have forgotten. The Ancient Warriors can also learn the memories of Shun, Julie, and their Bakugan. 2-Layer Memory Manipulation
Being able to read memories ≠ being able to delete memories.
First first would be mental manipulation type memory manip while the other would be straight up just telepathy.
Also again, 1 layer not 2.
Mind Manipulation
Naga has resistance to mind manipulation thanks to his silence core. Drago also has mind manipulation resistance because he received this core from him.
Again, can you prove Nagas mind manipulation resistance is granted by the core?
Despite this, Drago's mind is affected by
Dharak's attack. 2 layer mind manipulation
Dharak
Did Drago even have the core inside him at this point? Also again, 1 later not 2. You're constantly treating baseline hax as 1 layer hax.
Energy Absorption
Doom Dimension
absorbs Bakugan's energy. Leonidas, Vladiator and Nonets should gain resistance to the doom dimension as they are not affected by its negative effects.
Can you show them being unaffected by the effects?
Nonets have lived in the Doom Dimension for centuries. Leonidas was born here. In this scene, Dragonoid's energy, which has resistance to Energy Manipulation, is
drained by Spatterix + Stronk.
Can you show Dragos energy absorption resistance justification?
2 Layer Energy Absorption
Same as before. 1 layer at best.
Scaling above baseline resistance is only 1 layer of hax.
