BakuDouble-Strike
BakuDouble Strike was a series of special Bakugan that were released exclusively during Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders. These Bakugan typically feature a BakuDouble Strike featured a button that causes a second transformation, revealing a second Double Strike Bonus G-Power.
Characteristics
When a button is pressed on a BakuDouble Strike Bakugan, they will undergo a second transformation, such as extending or opening a part of the Bakugan, or launching a small projectile. When Snapzoid is first opened, its head and "wings" open. When you press the button on the back of its head, the thinner head that hides in Snapzoid's neck comes out. A hidden G-Power will sometimes be revealed upon pressing the button. For example, Phantom Dharak has been seen to have a G-Power on its head and wings. The ruling of when to use this hidden G-Power is that it can only be used only on an enemy's Gate Card. Some of the older BakuDouble Strike Bakugan like Avior and Phosphos have secondary G-Powers in Wave 4.
Rulings
BakuDouble Strike only get their extra G-Power bonus, or "Double Strike Bonus", when they brawl on an opponent's Gate Card and the owning player chooses to activate its second transformation. [1]
Dartaak follows this rule, now matter where the projectile lands. [2] However, Sky & Gaia Dragonoid act as two different Bakugan, where they counted as two seperate Bakugan if each piece lands on a separate Bakugan. [3]
