'''Triple Threat''' is the 14th episode of ''[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge]]''. It aired on May 22, 2011.

==Plot==
In [[Bakugan Interspace]], [[Rafe]] and [[Paige]] win a battle, and the rank for the Battle Brawlers is going back up. With their new ranking, they will face of with [[Team Anubias]] in a 2 vs 2 match. [[Marucho]] vows to defeat them to get rid of the violence which leads to flashbacks of Bakugan using [[BakuNano]].

Meanwhile, on [[New Vestroia]], [[Dan]] and [[Drago (Dan Kuso)|Drago]] are training and they both think that they are in sync. Drago says that he wants to try a round with Zenthon. Drago then tries to summon Zenthon, however, during the process, Dan sees a violent vision of [[Razenoid]] commanding a whole army of [[Chaos Bakugan]] to attack Bakugan Interspace. Then, Razenoid summons a portal which leads to Bayview and launches a powerful attack. Dan is then about to faint but Drago catches him just in time. Afterwards, [[Sellon]] suddenly arrives.

The match-ups for the battles against the Battle Brawlers and Team Anubias are [[Marucho]] and [[Shun]] vs [[Anubias]] and [[Robin (Mechtanium Surge)|Robin]] and Rafe and Paige vs [[Jack]] and [[Ben]]. They only show the battle between Marucho and Shun vs Anubias and Robin. Anubias uses [[Horridian]] while Robin uses [[Bolcanon|Bolcanon.]]

While in New Vestroia, Sellon reveals she is working for [[Mag Mel]] but she doesn't reveal her identity. She also says that the guy from before, Anubias, was also a servant but does not reveal his identity either and Dan was shocked. Sellon then commences the battle, summoning one [[Haos#Legacy|Haos]], one [[Ventus#Legacy|Ventus]], and one [[Subterra]] Iron Dragonoid while Dan uses Titanium Dragonoid. They are all quickly defeated by Titanium Dragonoid's '''''Dragon Force Striker''''' and Sellon said that was incredible. Then, Sellon summons six different attributed [[Flash Ingram]]s which all have BakuNano [[Shoxrox]]. Later, when Dan says that the only way to defeat all the six Flash Ingrams is to use '''''Dragon Force Striker''''', Sellon's Haos Flash Ingram nullifies all Drago's abilities so Dan says if they can't use abilities, they have to summon Zenthon. They then focus to try to summon Zenthon and they are successful. The six Flash Ingrams then attack Zenthon with the BakuNano's but Zenthon retaliates by defeaing 5 of the Flash Ingrams and Drago defeats one of them barehanded. Zenthon then speaks and thanks Dan and Drago for creating him and letting him do his job. Sellon then gets angry and summons three Mechtogan: [[Deezall]], [[Rockfist]] and [[Miserak]].

Meanwhile, The battle begins in Bakugan Interspace as Anubias uses Horridian's BakuNano, [[Aeroblaze]] and Robin uses Bolcanon's BakuNano, [[Hyper Pulsor]].

During the battle between Dan and Sellon, Deezal, Rockfist, and Miserak attack Zenthon brutally. Mag Mel is then seen getting massive amounts of Chaos Energy. Later when Miserak, Deezal, and Rockfist activate their lasers Dan is thrown back and sees a vision of Shun and Marucho vs Anubias and Robin. Zenthon then get attacked by Rockfist and Deezal when Zenthon is down. When Zenthon is down Drago says that their going to pay for that but Dan says to Drago, we have to stay in sync. They then convince Zenthon to get up and they then become all synchronized with each other. The bond between Dan, Titanium Dragonoid and Zenthon is used to summon a [[Mechtogan Titan]] called [[Zenthon Titan]]. Zenthon Titan then defeats Miserak, Deezal, and Rockfist with ease and then Sellon tells Dan and Drago that they can keep their Gate and Key. Sellon also mentions that the end of the world is still coming and Dan and Drago ask whats she's talking about but she teleports back to Earth and reports back to master Mag Mel.

During the other battle between Shun and Marucho vs Anubias and Robin, Shun and [[Taylean]] defeat Bolcanon with Horridian remaining. However, Mag Mel nearly has enough energy to break free and a scene of Mag Mel with Razenoid and Razen Titan is shown. Suddenly, rogue Chaos Bakugan start invading Bakugan Interspace and begin destroying everything in sight, while Anubias states: "It's the end!" with an evil smile.

They meet these extraterrestrials when they enter through the virtual reality [[Bakugan Interspace]]. At first, the Brawlers are deceived into thinking that Neathia had started the war against Gundalia but, as the story progresses, the Brawlers realize that its actually the other way around.

[[File:BD.jpg|thumb|Logo of the game]]
{{main|Bakugan Dimensions}}
The MMORPG ''Bakugan Dimensions'' was closely tied to ''Gundalian Invaders'', launching a month after the anime began airing and having tie-ins to the physical toy line that released with it. The game would last a bit over a year before being shut down on June 30, 2011, around the end of the first arc of ''Mechtanium Surge''.

==Trivia==
*This is the only season that does not:
**Have the Battle Brawlers visit Vestroia/New Vestroia.
**Contain an Attribute-changing Bakugan, although Gate Cards are able to change a Bakugan's attribute.
**Have [[Runo Misaki]] [[Preyas]], [[Blade Tigrerra]], [[Wavern]], [[Alpha Hydranoid]], [[Hammer Gorem]], and [[Storm Skyress]] appear.
**A villainous masked brawler. (Season 1 had Masquerade, Season 2 had Spectra Phantom, and Season 4 has Mag Mel and Wiseman.)
**Have its Japanese episodes named after song titles.
*This is the only season in which every Bakugan seen was produced as a toy. (Although Blitz Dragonoid's toy looks completely different than he does in the anime.)
*This is the first season where the main antagonists were all adults.
*It is the first season where the Japanese opening theme song is not performed by Psychic Lover.
*[[Dharak]] and [[Drago]] are the only Bakugan to evolve in this season.
*It is the shortest season of the ''Bakugan Battle Brawlers'' series, with only 39 compared to the previous two seasons' 52, and ''Mechtanium Surge's'' 46.
*A few episodes' title screens switched the [[Subterra]] and [[Ventus (Legacy)|Ventus]] symbols around.
*Beginning in the second half of the season, G-Powers had no bearing on the results of a battle. This continued in ''Mechtanium Surge'' until ''[[End of the Line]]''.
