Special Attack & Special Treatment Bakugan Rules
Special Attack Bakugan
Special
Attack Bakugan are the same round shape as a regular Bakugan ball, but
have special features that add to the overall drama and intensity of
each battle. How do I use a Special Attack Bakugan? When it comes to gameplay, Special Attack Bakugan are played just like any other Bakugan, but they are just more fun!
Special Treatment BakuganWhat is a Special Treatment Bakugan? A
Special Treatment Bakugan is any Bakugan that doesn't look like a
normal Bakugan OR it is any Bakugan that has a special feature. So,
that would include Bakugan like: Pearl, Translucent, Dual Attribute,
Heavy Metal, Clear and anything sold in the "Special Attack" packages. When do you pick the attribute of an attribute changing Bakugan (Clear, Dual, and Translucent)?
Attributes are determined at the start of a battle (in other words, when the Gate Card is flipped over.)
Clear Bakugan
How do I use a Clear Bakugan?
At the beginning of
a battle, Clear Bakugan take on the attribute of your opponent's
Bakugan. If both players have a clear Bakugan they both get to pick
which attribute they want for that battle. How do I use a Clear Bakugan when battling a Dual Attribute Bakugan?
The Clear Bakugan will take on the
attribute that is decided when your opponent pick's the attribute for
their Dual Attribute Bakugan.
How do I use a Clear Bakugan against a Translucent Bakugan?
The Clear Bakugan
will take on the attribute that is decided when your opponent picks the
attribute for their Translucent Bakugan. When does a Clear Bakugan change its attribute? Clear
Bakugan take the attribute of their opponent at the start of the
battle. They do not constantly change as their opponent changes.
Can a Clear Bakugan change its attribute more than once in a battle? No. You can only take on an attribute change once during a battle. They do not constantly change as their opponent changes.
Pearl Bakugan
How do I use a Pearl Bakugan?
Pearl Bakugan can either take on
their regular G-Power bonus on a Gate Card OR the highlighted Gate
bonus... whichever one you decide!
Translucent Bakugan
How do I use a Translucent Bakugan?
At the start of a battle, the
owner of the Translucent Bakugan may choose to either keep their
attribute OR take on the attribute of their opponent. How do I use a Translucent Bakugan against a Clear Bakugan? Since
a Translucent Bakugan can't take on the attribute of an attribute-less
Bakugan, you must use the attribute that the Translucent Bakugan is.
How do I use a Translucent Bakugan against a Dual Bakugan?
After your opponent determines the
attribute of their Dual Bakugan, you may choose which attribute to use:
your original attribute or your opponent's determined attribute.
Dual Attribute Bakugan

How do I use a Dual Attribute Bakugan?
At the beginning of
battle, the player who has the Dual Attribute Bakugan gets to choose
from the two attributes on the Bakugan they want. * Does a Dual Attribute Bakugan get two bonuses when processing G-Power bonuses? No. A Dual Attribute Bakugan can only be one attribute at any given time. If you have a
Dual attribute Bakugan in a battle, and it is (for example) currently
an Aquos, then it only counts as a single attribute Bakugan giving a
single G-Power bonus. If you have a Dual Bakugan in your used or unused
pile, you can pick either of the attributes for a single G-Power bonus,
but you cannot pick both for a double bonus.
This may get a
little weird in some situations. You may need to determine the
attribute of a Dual, or other attribute changing Bakugan, at the
beginning of the battle for certain cards that may be played that
reference to the attributes of Bakugan not currently in battle.
Lastly, a Clear Bakugan in a used or unused pile would not count as having ANY attribute until it is given one in a battle.
