'''Bakugan Battle Gear''' can attach to the back of most ''[[Gundalian Invaders|Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders]]'' Bakugan. According to the rules they can also be played with any Bakugan, such as older Bakugan. Like a Bakugan [[Trap]], [[Battle Gear]] is played during battle. However, rather than changing [[Attributes]], they give a small boost to [[G-Power]], usually between 50 and 120 [[Gs]], although they can add upwards of 270 Gs. There is a line of Battle Gear known as [[Deluxe Battle Gear]] which light up and blink when placed on a Bakugan or [[Gate Card]].

There are currently 39 different known Bakugan Battle Gear. Although they have the same Main [[attribute|Attribute Colors]] of the normal Bakugan, these colors are cosmetic and do not limit a Gear from being played on any Bakugan.

The symbols use for Battle Gear are different from that of a normal Bakugan and indicate [[Gold]], [[Silver]] and [[Copper]] (which replaces the term [[Bronze]] in the new rules). Exactly which is which can be told from the detailing the Gear has, as the highlights on the Gear will match the color indicated. These colors also correspond to the Gate Cards of the same colors. In the anime, all Bakugan compatible with Battle Gear (except [[Krakix]]) have to have some parts of them moved in order for them to have the Battle Gear attached, while in the game, only some of them do. Unlike Traps, they aren't living Bakugan, instead taking on the appearance of weapons or machines.

There are also two sub-types of Battle Gear called [[Bakugan Mobile Assault]] and [[BakuNano]]. Bakugan Mobile Assaults, unlike regular Battle Gear, have [[Attribute]]s and are ridden by Bakugan like vehicles. In ''[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge|Mechtanium Surge]]'', [[Dylan]] creates the [[BakuNano]], which are smaller, sleeker versions of the Battle Gear.

==Anime==
===[[Bakugan: New Vestroia]]===
In the anime, the characters press certain button combinations on their [[Gauntlet]] and then the Battle Gear assembles itself. Only one certain Battle Gear can be used on a [[Bakugan]], as it is designed for its DNA signature.

===[[Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders]]===
In the Anime the Characters press certain buttons on their [[BakuMeter]], the [[Castle Knights]] use the diamond on their left arm on their uniforms and [[Gundalian]]s make them come out of their left hands. It is possible, that because, a Battle Gear is in sync with the Bakugan and their DNA, they can evolve with the Bakugan.

==Physical Game==
Battle Gear comes with a "[[Reference Cards|Reference Card]]". These blue-backed cards aren't in any used or unused piles but simply detail the Battle Gear's special abilities. While Battle Gear can be attached to a Bakugan of any attribute, each Reference Card gives the Battle Gear a special ability if it is attached to one of two particular attributes. Or, if the Battle Gear matches the color (e.g. '''Gold''' to a '''Gold Gate Card''') of the gate, one can pick whichever ability from the card that they want, regardless of attribute. There are also Deka Battle Gear.

As mentioned above, there are also special Battle Gear called [[Deluxe Battle Gear]] which light up and blink once put on a Bakugan.

A player can have any combination of two Battle Gear and/or Traps, meaning they can have one Trap and one Battle Gear, or simply two Battle Gears. In a big game you can have four Traps and/or four Battle Gear, or a combination of both.

Like Traps, Battle Gear can go on any Bakugan. For example, they will be able to combine with any old Bakugan as though new, but are used by placing them next to the Bakugan that's incapable having Battle Gear placed on it.

In Japan, rules are different. Battle Gear use regular Ability Cards (such as Twin Destructor and Twin Destructor level 2) and can only equip to Battle Gear-compatible Bakugan. Battle Gear in Japan also attach to the Bakugan before the Gate Card is opened.
